? 2?? Or perhaps you want to push yourself to achieve outstanding results like a NSW state ranking / 99.95 ATAR / to get into a high ATAR dream degree (e.g. law / medicine)?

As an alumnus of North Sydney Boys—the top school in NSW—with an ATAR of 99.60, I’ve dedicated myself to creating a well thought out & unique tutoring experience that is designed to make every study minute count. My approach isn’t just about covering the syllabus, but analyses overlooked factors that significantly determine your mark; namely, how your teacher personally appreciates their subject, how to leverage their feedback to guarantee marks, how exam markers assess your work, and how you can optimally absorb, drill and express the material.

By recognizing this, it becomes far easier to get ahead without meaningfully cutting into your free time, catch up and follow along in lessons, and very feasible to achieve a state ranking / 99.95 ATAR / get into a high ATAR degree.

Crucially, behind my tuition are the firsthand insights gained from my close friendships with the state’s most successful students. Their unique methods for structuring study sessions, filtering out ineffective resources, and extracting relevant feedback have all shaped my strategy. Additionally, I draw from an extensive collection of resources crafted by 30+ state-ranking & 99.95 students --- all of which are not publicly accessible --- that ensure every lesson is focused, practical, and far removed from tedious textbook drills. Surprisingly, these insights and resources apply very well beyond just a high achiever context, and allow struggling students to get ahead.

Despite this high-level knowledge, I like to speak casually, keep lessons approachable, down to earth and entertaining, and also throw in a couple jokes here and there.

? If you're interested and want to learn more / organise a lesson, see my contacts at the end. Unfortunately, there are
limited spots so I encourage you to send a message as soon as possible if you want to secure a place. Looking forward to meeting you!
