About Me:
I bring over a decade of tertiary teaching experience to every session. Alongside holding a Bachelor of Biomedical Science (Class 1 Honours) and a PhD, I am a practicing medical doctor. My background bridges rigorous scientific research—specifically in biochemistry, haematology, and analytical science—with real-world clinical application. I have a deep passion for science and take genuine pride in mentoring students to reach their highest potential.

My Tutoring Approach:
I do not simply read off slides or recite textbooks. Every session is structured around the student’s immediate goals, whether that means breaking down complex physiological pathways, mastering assessment criteria, or refining high-level scientific writing.

I don't gatekeep resources: I actively share the high-yield tools, question banks, and reference materials accumulated over 10+ years of teaching, even if it means you require fewer hours with me. Wherever possible, I teach students how to synthesise cross-disciplinary knowledge—a skill critical for top-tier results in ATAR (including QCE), the HSC, and the IB diploma.

Track Record & Results:
My students consistently achieve top marks, ranging from significant grade turnarounds in senior school to maintaining competitive GPAs for graduate entry programs. To date, I have mentored multiple students from leading secondary schools to ATAR scores above 99.50.
Whether you are a senior high school student aiming for a top ATAR or a university student navigating advanced medical and biomedical sciences, I can help you excel.

Availability & Contact:
Online sessions available daily throughout the afternoon and early evening.

"All I can say is that Evan is not one of the best, but the best tutor I have ever had! I was apprehensive about achieving the OP I needed to be accepted into the UQ Vet program, but Evan helped me to achieve! He is clear and precise in his explanation of topics I struggled with and really developed my ability to draw information together - a real testament to his PhD level training!"
