Hey! I'm Srihaas, a James Ruse graduate now studying medicine at UNSW.

If your trials didn't go the way you hoped, remember that's not your final mark. Plenty of students peak at trials and drop in the externals. But you can turn a rough trial into your best mark of the year at the HSC, and I can teach you that.

My internal marks were already high at the most competitive school in NSW, but what if I told you I either matched or surpassed my internal mark in ALL my external exams. This led to me being the only 2025 James Ruse graduate with 96+ in ALL externals, including 97 in Chem (state rank #4), 97 in Phys, 99 in 3U and 4U Maths and 96 in English Advanced.

You don't need to study hours upon hours. I know the feeling of putting in work and not knowing if it is doing anything, so I built a system around one principle - quality over quantity. My success came down to targeted, efficient teaching approaches using refined question banks, elevating exam technique beyond typical band 6 responses, and a motivation to continuously improve. And I am confident I can instil this motivation within you, because my aim is to help students reach their full potential without giving up the parts of school that matter to them.

The subjects I teach:
- English Advanced (Y11-12)
- Chemistry (Y11-12), Physics (Y11-12)
- 3U Mathematics (Y11-12), 4U Mathematics (Y12, accelerating available)
- UCAT + Medical Interview Preparation

New Syllabus Tutor (including English)

What students can benefit from in:

Chemistry & Physics Tutoring
- Personalised teaching (I help you with not only what you want, but what can help you have long-term success)
- Exam strategy - avoiding common pitfalls/silly mistakes, time management, how to approach even the hardest questions and maximise marks
- Niche tricks and content that always come up in exams, but is not traditionally taught (this allowed me to get a state rank in Chemistry and a state rank mark in Physics, and I am able to teach these to all potential students, including those looking to reach state-rank level marks)
- Structured weekly lessons with integrated content and practice problems to build exam technique (I prioritise not only experience with a variety of questions, but also a strong fundamental understanding of course content)
- Complete access to my mistake log, trial compilations, and handcrafted notes
- Specific tips on what external markers are looking for in short and long responses

UCAT & Interview Preparation
- As someone who has scored 2590 on the UCAT, a high 99th percentile score, I know which preparation methods work most efficiently so you can optimise your UCAT score alongside school success
- I have trialled a wide range of exam strategies to identify what works best under time pressure, and can help you apply these effectively in your own preparation
- I am also offering medicine interview lessons (general preparation + 1 on 1 mocks), as I have a wealth of experience and insights into the interview process, having sat 9+ interviews and received multiple offers across Australia (100% spoken interview success rate, received an unbonded offer to my first preference in every state, including UNSW, UQ, UAdel, UniMelb and more)
- Extensive, collated interview question bank covering MMI and SSI style questions for universities across Australia

3U / 4U Mathematics Tutoring
- A structured method for proofs, problem-solving and final questions, so you are never just hoping it clicks under pressure
- Exam technique in every session: time allocation, where marks are won and lost, staying composed on an unfamiliar question
- Full access to the notes, trial papers and mistake log that took me from 2nd in Y11 2U/3U to achieving a state rank mark in 4U maths
- Lessons pitched to your goal, whether that's passing, competing, or state ranking

English
- Personalised teaching (I help you with not only what you want, but what can help you have long-term success)
- How to adapt your essay to different questions, not just how to write one
- My full exemplar repertoire (internal and external), handpicked exemplars, notes and analysed quote banks
- Unlimited draft marking and feedback between classes
- 2026 texts: 1984, Donne/W;t, King Henry IV Part 1, all Mod C
- For students of the class of 2027 and beyond: I offer an early start for the new syllabus, with extensive resources collated and a thorough understanding of what each module entails

Texts I teach for the 2027 cohort and beyond

Y12 English Advanced:

Common Module: An Imaginary Life, by David Malouf
