Thomas B.
Private tutor in Melbourne, Australia
Education
My name is Thomas, I finished school at Scotch College last year and I'm looking to offer tutoring in Maths and Physics during my Science degree at Melbourne Uni.
Experience
I achieved scores of 50 in Maths Methods (2014) and 47 in Specialist (2015). Last year I achieved an ATAR of 99.90 with raw scores Chemistry: 45 Latin: 44 Literature: 40 Physics: 50 Also 5.0 in Uni maths In addition to this, I have fairly extensive experience in Maths competitions. I've been to 5 Maths Olympiad camps, received numerous prizes in the AMC, 1st and 3rd places in the Melbourne Uni Maths comp, gold, silver and bronze medals in the Australian Maths Olympiad and a bronze medal in the 2015 Asia Pacific Maths Olympiad (5th in Australia). My enthusiasm for problem solving provided me with a much broader perspective on VCE maths which rendered the more curveball-ish of VCAA exam questions much more approachable. I'd hope to convey this mindset to students, largely through working through genuinely hard problems. With regard to Physics, I topped the subject at school, and obtained a gold medal in the NQE for physics, which led to me attending the Physics summer school at ANU. My rate is $40 an hour.
