Hey guys,
I'm George and I graduated this year from a selective school with an ATAR of 99.95
Quite a few people (not from BOS) asked me to do a holiday acceleration course for their subs so I thought I’d also offer something similar here in case people are interested.
What:
- We’ll go ahead of school and cut the crap -> anything not needed won’t be taught
- I emphasise understanding because in the long run, that makes everything heaps easier
- We’ll focus heaps on exam technique because that’s the difference between a 90 and 95 in a sub -> there’s no point knowing everything if you can only write to a 4/6 level in the exam
- I'll give you guys a complete set of sexy notes as well as analysis on some past HSC questions (with random pointers and exam techinque and stuff chucked in at relevant points). Then before exams, you can also read over those and you should be sweet. I've got heaps of random resources (from notes to tips from senior HSC markers to trials from literally every selective school in NSW) so bring a USB as well and I'll hook you up.
Where, when, how much:
- PM me- we’ll negotiate that later if you’re interested
- It’d be best to have small groups so you can support each other and have discussion etc. but not too big that it becomes impersonal. Probs the best would be is if you made a small group with mates from school but otherwise I can try and form a BOS group depending on interest.
Credentials:
- My current students say I'm very good so hopefully this trend can continue =)
- I just finished HSC this year and got an ATAR of 99.95
- I’ve been offered jobs at numerous tutoring colleges (and also have interviews at a few more to go) though I’ll probably turn down most of them because private tutoring is more fun and flexible =)
- A lot of random stuff like being shortlisted for or receiving numerous scholarship, high distinctions in every competition I entered in year 12 (maths comp, rio tinto big science, chemistry comp and a few more but I forgot haha)
- My subject marks were:
Chem- 96
Economics- 97
English- 94
Maths Extension 1- 99
Maths Extension 2- 96
Physics- 96
Subjects: Again, whatever people are interested in (except English because that pisses me off and I'm not confident in my ability to help you guys effectively). For phys/chem people, I recommend you check this out too: http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=296338
Anyway, PM me if you’re interested and we’ll sort something out that works for everyone. Either way, GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD LUCK guys with year 12- hope you all rip shit up
My number is 0451 391 638 so you can text/call me if you want as well
Cheers,
George
Update: I've probs still got room for a few more people for the holidays because I've got heaps of time this January haha. If you are after just regular tutoring (i.e. not just holiday stuff but more long term), then PM me as well and we should hopefully be able to sort something out.
