I can quickly & comprehensively evaluate an individual Students skills & weaknesses. This is especially useful for mature age students filling in their knowledge gaps when attempting bridging courses

I will supervise, assess and improve test/exam skills.
Teach extended concepts including the "tricky" specific skills required and used by examiners that sort the 80% student from the 99% student.
Assign and monitor specific revision/homework/study regimes.
Supervise & monitor curriculum pace and workload.
Provide extra resources and content that focus on weak areas and conceptual understanding.
I always assess each student individually and design a program to fill in their missing
knowledge/concepts whilst enhancing their skills with their ongoing studies to maximise results.

"I changed tutors from a 3rd year University student for my year 11 studies to Ian for my year 12. He was recommended to me through my cousin. They pointed out that having a teacher of the subject was a huge difference in skills when compared to a Uni student who did well in the subject. I noticed the difference in tuition immediately. From the first lesson, Ian planned out the next month - covered my first two weeks of theory and managed to quickly identify concepts I struggled with from year 11. He made sure I understood all the concepts before expanding on them. Gave me a huge amount of materials to read and questions to tackle. He really does have a mountain of resources, past exams/tests with marking guides and the examiner's comments were really helpful. Having a teacher look over my shoulder and correct every little mistake I was making was frustrating at first but it didn't take long before I really noticed the difference in how my exam answers improved and how the little specific things I changed managed to take me from a average test result of 55% to an 85% on my first test. That 85% was my lowest test result all year. His help organising my study and monitoring my progress through the course really helped me plan around my other units in the same way. I was always ahead and ready for assessment clashes. The difference in pressure I felt compared to year 11 was immense. Year 12 Physics was a breeze thanks to Ian's help. Nothing was ever a bother and to be honest Ian is a really funny science geek, he will have you in stitches. The 2-hour sessions once a week flew by and looking back now, we would get more done in those two hours than my teacher could cover in two weeks of classes. REALLY REALLY RECOMMEND HIM!!! Thanks Ian"
