I'm not sure about your original question but there's an incredible Methods/Spesh tutor on the forums that lives really close to that area if one of those was a subject you were looking for. B^3 is the tutor if that means anything to you.
✌️just do what makes you happy ✌️

im always a bit skeptical of Dr X, maths genius. No doubt that that Dr X is a maths genius, but thats not necessarily the best approach for vce. I think sitting the exams, and knowing how to get that marks is more valuable. Never heard of Dr Long, but my recommendation certainly goes to b^3 over this person

I know this isn't what the thread is about, but if you were interested in tutoring then here are my details/information.

I can tutor Methods and/or Specialist maths, locations are a bit further out than Sunshine, but in that direction (outer north western suburbs), or at the state library, my tutoring details are linked here - http://www.atarnotes.com/?p=tutoring&a=view&item_id=318

Let me know if you are interested, send me a pm :)

EDIT: It appears that you may have finished year 12, but asking for a friend? If so then the details/offer is still there.

Having the title 'Dr' seems to be a growing trend in the Maths tutoring game :)

So true, having advanced maths knowledge that is irrelevant to VCE is quite useless. Also being knowledgeable and being a good teacher is completely different. One who explains things in simple terms while providing motivation and tips to study is much more valuable IMO.

Hey guys!

Unfortunately, I've had to edit the last few posts of this thread as we received requests from School No 1 asking us to take down what they believed to be barbaric/disgusting/untrue comments.

However, I just wanted to reinforce to everyone in this community that moderators will NEVER edit your posts unless we have to! You all may see the "Last edited by..." on the above posts has my name on it - this will not become common practice! We would love to have all users on this community feel welcome to express themselves without fear of moderator censorship. As said, these posts were only edited under special circumstances at the request from School No 1.

Thanks so much guys,

We're very sorry to have had to do this.

Cheers,

Ned.

That's probably the worst piece of publicity School No. 1 could have gotten. I don't need to know anything else about this school to form my opinion.
