Hi everyone,
My name is Thomas, I finished school at Scotch College this year and I'm looking to offer tutoring in Maths and Physics.
I achieved scores of 50 in Maths Methods (2014) and 47 in Specialist (2015). Obviously other results are still pending. (My subjects this year were Literature, Latin, Chemistry, Physics and Monash Uni Maths) I'm also more than happy to offer advice for these, and perhaps tutoring depending on my results.
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.
I'd be happy to tutor in libraries near me- Camberwell, Box Hill, Hawthorn- and am open to other suggestions.
My rate is $40 an hour.
If interested please contact me either by PM here, or email at
