The Best Year 5-10 English tutors in Ainslie, ACT

Hi there! I'm James, and I graduated from Barker College in Sydney with a 97.6 ATAR. I finished the HSC with a 96 HSC mark in Advanced Maths as well as 46/50 in Extension Maths. I was also able to do a 10-month exchange in Japan before year 11, allowing me to connect with a super interesting and exciting culture and language, which enabled me to score Dux of the the school in Japanese Continuers. Throughout high school, I played around with so many different ways of revising and studying both individually and collaboratively, desperately trying to find the magic solution to success in the HSC. Whilst no instant solution exists, I have realised that having concepts explained to you in detail, and answering questions confidently, even if you are unsure, allows you to do the best you can. Nowadays, I spend my days studying Commerce/Engineering at ANU, hanging out with friends, playing golf, and waiting for winter to hit so I can put on my skis!

Hello!! I'm Lucas and I intend to help you through whatever journey you are at in your schooling life. I graduated as House Captain with an ATAR of 98.65, and study scores of 43 in English, 46 in History and a 47 in Philosophy. Whilst at school, I found my most effective trait to be time-management. I always wanted to get good grades, but never wanted to sacrifice a mark for sport, social life or any other hobbies. I found that the most effective study is always done when done to a detailed plan which also allowed for lots of spare time. I am currently studying Law and PPE (Politics, Philosophy and Economics) at the Australian National University, and am playing lots of sport, having fun with friends and tutoring great students.

Hi everyone! My name's Thomas and I'm currently studying a Bachelor of Science (Advanced) at the Australian National University. I've always had a passion for science and maths, but it wasn't until year 11 that I realised I also have a passion for teaching science and maths! I find the feeling of cracking a tough problem or having a tricky concept finally 'click' immensely satisfying, so helping my classmates have more of those 'aha!' moments seemed like a no-brainer. I aim to help my students achieve a deep, intuitive understanding of the subjects they are learning, and maybe even enjoy them! Having spent too long being taught by nothing but rote memorisation and textbook questions, I know you can't teach by brute-force. My first step is always to make sure my students really get what they're learning — practice comes later. I remember how hectic high school can be. In my final two years of high school I played drums and percussion in multiple community bands, held a causal job, and maintained a decent social life; all while devoting a fair bit of attention to school! Apparently I did something right, surprising myself by graduating as Dux of my high school with a 99.80 ATAR. So, my goal is to help you maintain that treasured school-life balance while achieving the results you want. These days, when university isn't keeping me occupied I'm probably playing board games with friends, skiing, or playing drums!
