Verified Tutor
What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
Mainly teaching others topics that they are unfamiliar with makes tutoring very enjoyable for me. It's more of the idea that I am assisting this students education, and seeing how they grow academically gives me satisfaction from tutoring others.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am a very good at expressing complicated concepts in a simple way. I am very adaptive to the students requirements and needs. I am active, kind and always looking for feedback and opportunties to improve myself.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe assisting the student in their academic journey whenther it be academically or mentally is what a tutor should do for a student. This either through motivating them to try their best, focusing on teaching the students their weaknesses, and guiding these students to become good peoples of society.Tutoring students in 👦 👧

About Benjamin
Strong Mathematical and Technological Background
Benjamin is currently studying a Honours Double Degree on Engineering and Computer Science. This makes him a prime candidate to tutor mathematics to any degree of difficulty, while also having high levels of experience using technology for educating other students. Furthermore having completed both Mathematics Extension 1 and Mathematics Extension 2 to a high degree makes him very knowledgable in high school maths. He is able to simplify mathematical concepts to a simpler level for students to understand.
Achieved Academic Exellence
Benjamin has achieved many different awards throughout his high school education which all include Year Dux, Academic Exellence and Student of the Year awards which heavily emphasises his serious commitment to school and his education. He has also earned a staff choice commitment to study award examplifying him as a respectable model student.
Highly Motivated, Dedicated and Experienced
Having experiences as a private tutor, Benjamin will bring a highly motivated and professional attitude towards tutoring. His enjoyment of teaching others enables him to become dedicated to his craft. He is not only well-experenced with in-person lessons, but excels in conducting online lessons with his creative usage of technology. Throughout his experiences as a tutor, he has built skills of teaching, organisation of classes and a sense of uniqueness that will create engaging and fun lessons for his students, while furthermore developing indepedence and academic growth for his students.

Harrison was able to recognise the opposite, adjacent and hypotenuse sides of a right angle triangle. Harrison was able to put the correct numbers into a trigonometric ratio of sin, cos and tan. Harrison tends to misplace and confuse himself between the opposite and adjacent sides.
Harrison should employ the strategies which assist him in finding the correct sides, one such idea is to think opposite of the angle is the opposite, and next to the angle is adjacent, and etc. It is recommended for Harrison to remember SOH, CAH, TOA. This will ensure that he has an easy way to remember the trig ratios

Harrison was able to find the right trig ratio to be used to find the missing angle/side of a right-angle triangle. Harrison understands the usage of inverse trig, and how it can be used to find a missing angle. Harrison recognises the difference between true bearings and compass bearings and how to find them. Harrison struggles to understand solving for x, has difficulties figuring out division/multiplication steps that may be required to make x alone.
Harrison should learn the two ways of solving for a missing side in a right angle triangle given angle. There are only two ways being when the missing side is on the top and bottom of the trig ratio, and due to there only being two, Harrison should be made aware of it. Harrison should also practice with questions to ensure that he has confidence calculating for missing sides/angles, and furthermore develop a pattern recognition with these questions.

Harrsion remembers how to use trig ratios to solve for a missing side/angle of a right angle triangle. Harrison recognises the method to find true bearing and compass bearing, however it is not fully fleshed out in his mind. Harrison really struggled with solving two-step equations, as Harrison finds it hard to adapt to each question, and moreover lacks the fundamental knowledge of solving for x. Harrison does not recognise Pythagoras theorem, however although reminded, he tends to forget the powers.
Harrison should next time ensure that he does questions before the exam, recommended around 2-3 days at least. This will ensure he is able to identify areas that he needs more focus on, such that he can more thoroughly prepare for the test. Harrison should also dedicate some time to consolidate his notes properly, and write proper notes either from his teachers notes or textbook including examples to ensure that he is able to easily revise for his test.

James is comfortable with most content in trig, and took note of these content areas. James recognises the purpose and idea behind z-score and how to use it to find percentages in a normal distribution. James struggles with applying the Sine rule mainly being unsure on when to use the sine rule and the steps to fully solve a sine rule question.
James should learn that the sine rule has certain conditions to be used that it differs from a cosine rule. Namely, a sine has two sides and one angle or two angles and one side, meanwhile the cosine rule makes this arrow with two sides with an angle in between. If James can recognize those situations it will make identifying when to use the trig rules much easier.
