USYD Arts Tutor Charlie

Specialist in essay writing | State Ranking (6th) in Modern History | 98.00 ATAR | High Distinction WAM and Honours student at Sydney Uni | Band 6: Ancient History, Modern History, History Extension, French Continuers I have over five years’ experience as a private tutor. I maintain a strong rapport with my students, all of whom have improved consistently. Yeats wrote that education is not the filling of a pail but the lighting of a fire. While I am results-driven, I also aim to inspire students with a passion for knowledge. Engagement is the keynote of my teaching method. My students have a proven record of success. I have experience tutoring to a wide variety of standards and age levels. I work with my students to develop a specific approach and study plan to cater to their needs. I am determined that my students thrive both academically and socially. During Year 12, I learned to better manage the organisational imperatives of school life. It is vital that each student develop their own self-motivated program for study, supplemented by proven study techniques. I assist students not only with school work but also in coping with the pressures of high school. I have maintained strong academic credentials at university, where I hold a High Distinction weighted average mark and have received various scholarships, including the Vice Chancellor’s Global Mobility Scholarship and the DAAD Winterkurs German Language Scholarship, collectively valued at over $7,000. I can tutor most subjects to a Year 12 standard. These include English Advanced, Extension 1 and 2, English Standard, General Maths, Economics, Business Studies, Legal Studies, Modern History, Ancient History, History Extension, French Beginners and Continuers, Latin Continuers and Extension, and German Beginners, Continuers and Extension. I can also tutor all Maths and Science up to a Year 10 level. I am available most afternoons and evenings. I am also available most times on the weekend. I am happy to travel to any location within Sydney’s eastern and south-eastern suburbs, inner city and inner west. I also offer online lessons via Zoom or Google Meet. Please do not hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to hearing from you.
