About James
Professional Background & Experience:
I have over 18 months combined teaching experience between being a science teacher and a tutor, with experience working with children from Kindergarten up to Year 12 of all ability levels and academic backgrounds. I have consistently received positive feedback from my students with a proven record of helping my students massively improve their confidence and grades in the subjects they once struggled in. I have a strong ability to communicate, engage, and teach students, as well as navigating the interpersonal student-teacher relationship. My style of teaching focuses on simple, step-by-step, clear explanations with a focus on 'the why', which facilitates a very effective, clarifying, and enjoyable learning experience for students. Apart from direct academic teaching experience, I have over three years of combined sports coaching experience in water polo and surfing, working with a variety of ages and ability levels with demonstrated success.
How I Can Help:
Subjects I tutor include: Standard and Advanced Math, Standard and Advanced English, Economics, and Legal Studies. Please refer to the subject list for all subjects I tutor. I can also help your child succeed in the OC Placement Test and the Selective High School Placement Test, having succeeded in both when I was younger.
For children/teenagers who are struggling or unconfident in their studies, you can expect to see a massive improvement in grades, confidence, and comprehension of your subject over the course of our tutoring sessions. For those who are doing well and want to excel, I can provide the guidance, expertise, and motivation for you to become a top achiever in your class.
Please send me a message to enquire about your particular situation and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
About Me:
Teaching is something that I am passionate about and that I genuinely enjoy. As someone who received tutoring as a child and is now tutoring others, I understand and have experienced first-hand the importance of quality, specialised education and the long-lasting positive impact it brings to children throughout their schooling years and beyond. As an average kid, my parents decided to send me to a tutor for a few years when I was younger, which I believe has massively catalysed the academic success I have seen throughout primary and high school, such as acing the OC Entrance Exam in 2012 (score of ~242), receiving a 70% academic scolarship entry into Pittwater House in 2014, succeeding in the Selective High School Placement Test twice in 2014 and 2018 for both Year 7 and Year 11 entry into Manly Selective Campus, and achieving an ATAR of 96.95 in 2020. I am now tutoring with the aim of inspiring kids and teenagers to see their true academic potential, and fostering curiosity for lifelong learning beyond their schooling years.

I’ve known James for many years and I think he does an amazing job as a tutor.
James genuinely cares about helping students understand things on a deeper level, not just memorize facts. He’s patient, empathetic, and has a way of making people feel comfortable while still being professional. I’ve seen how much effort he puts into tutoring, and I’m sure he’d bring that same energy and kindness into this role, making a real difference for his students.See more recommendations
