Hi there, I’m Saksham!! I graduated from Sydney Boys High School and am currently studying medicine at UNSW. I believe education (when done right!) has the power to transform your life, opening up career paths that seem impossible and shaping you into a better person with the drive to succeed. This is the fundamental reason why I tutor students; nothing brings me greater joy than helping people and watching them improve. I have experience teaching countless individuals: primary school students consolidating the basics, HSC students days before their final exams, and even hundreds of medical students as part of the Academics team in the UNSW Medical Society.

Although I've tutored in many subjects, I ultimately decided to specialise in the subject that I loved teaching and the subject that students love learning from me: mathematics. Rather than teaching students to rote learn formulae like in school, I help my students develop a deep conceptual understanding and learn to solve exam-style problems to not only improve their marks but also form a genuine passion for maths. These strategies enabled me to achieve a 99 in the Mathematics Advanced HSC exam and 98 in Extension 1, as well as become a two-time national finalist in the International Mathematical Modelling Challenge. I am confident that I can help you reach your academic goals.

For students hoping to study medicine/dentistry, I can mentor you to succeed in the UCAT, the dreaded 2-hour test worth the same (if not more) than an entire year of high school! Balancing the UCAT alongside school is without a doubt challenging but I will guide you to reach your maximum potential whilst still finding time for the things you enjoy. For me, that’s going to the gym, playing cricket, and spending time with family and friends :)
