Experience

Hi, I’m Joshua, a Law and Politics, Philosophy and Economics (PPE) student at ANU with an ANU Selection Rank of 99.95. Over the past few years, I’ve worked with students across Canberra to help them reach their academic goals, from those aiming for improvement to those striving for the very top.

My students have achieved incredible results, including the Dux of the ACT in 2024, and a median ATAR of 99+. In English especially, my students have all improved by more than 11 unit scores, and many have discovered a new love for the subject along the way.

As an experienced tutor, I know that no two students are the same. Every learner has their own strengths, challenges, and way of thinking. This is exactly where my approach begins. I take the time to understand each student and adapt lessons to suit their individual goals and learning styles. Whether it’s building confidence, mastering exam technique, or pushing for top results, I tailor my teaching to help every student reach their potential and genuinely enjoy the process along the way.
