*HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL MATH TUTOR/COACH/MENTOR* *All subjects WACE/SACE/HSC/VCE/QCE/TCE/IB/TAFE/UNI/SAT/STAT/ADF/GMAT/+* *I prepare my students to excel*

My son is in his first year of a physics degree, and says the best part of Andrew's tutoring apart from his incredible knowledge (he can answer so many questions off the top of his head) is the resources he freely sent, such as revision guides & old exams. My son feels that Andrew genuinely cares about how he is going and really wants him to succeed in his degree. Andrew has been integral in helping my son to fill in knowledge gaps in both maths and physics. His communication skills are excellent and prices are very reasonable given his level of expertise and effectiveness. This mum couldn't be more grateful!!

To whom it may concern,
Andrew was the maths tutor for our twin boys for over a year.
He adapted easily to tutoring the boys together, in person and later, due to COVID restrictions, using online applications for individual sessions.
Andrew’s love of maths and enthusiasm for teaching are stand out features in his tutoring.
He is patient and undeterred in achieving understanding of maths concepts in his students.
He improved our sons capabilities in maths and this was rewarded by them both achieving grades which were 1 -2 levels above their pre-tutoring grades.
We were grateful to Andrew for his consistent efforts and would be happy call upon his expertise again in the future.
Kind regards,

This review is to commend the work of Andrew, who was my methods tutor in 2019. Thanks to his expert, dedicated guidance I reached my goal and finished Mathematical Methods on an A, and in regards to my ATAR got a score of 99.35, which granted me admissions for all of my preferences which included University of Adelaide and UNSW, as well as a substantial Defence University Sponsorship! I was very happy with my achievements, which were to an important degree thanks to him. I am very grateful for the work and effort he put in to teaching me and help me improve substantially in this subject, key to my engineering admissions. I owe him so much for helping me reach my potential! Thank you so much Andrew! Thank you so much for being not only my tutor but a mentor over the course of my last high school year, all your teachings are greatly appreciated!

Andrew very successfully tutored my year 2 daughter in Math that was over two years ahead of the curriculum. My daughter was able to complete exercises in long multiplication and division, fractions, percentages, algebra, equations that was comparable to years 4 and 5 Math level. Andrew also impressed us with his professionalism and was always very approachable and easy to communicate with. He provided us with regular updates of her progress and plenty of weekly homework. We wholeheartedly recommend his Math tutoring services, we had been looking for a Math tutor for a while and were very glad to find someone who does concentrate on this subject and was so thorough and accomplished, it worked very well for us!

Hi Andrew, I've been well and hope the same on your end. I received a 96.7 ATAR and improved over 30% in Methods, which all granted me admissions to the bachelor of health and medicine (advanced) from the University of Adelaide. Thank you for all the lessons last year and for the extra help, it all help me so much. Thank you for all the advice and the time you've put into ensuring I get into my desired career choice, now I'm on my way to becoming a doctor :)
Best wishes, Sudarshan

Mr Andrew is a fantastic tutor. He guided me to improve in year 12 Methods more than 30%, this helped me reach the 92 ATAR band and secure admission to the Bachelor of Human Sciences at UWA. Last year I just moved to Australia and was finding a lot of the content not easy and my results were very worrying as I needed a high ATAR, fortunately Mr Andrew was very patient and explained everything clearly. He also followed up from time to time and was available every time I needed extra support during the rest of the week. Mr Andrew made my transition to Australia and to university studies much easier. It's be great having you as teacher, Mr Andrew, thank you!

To whom it may concern I hired Andrew to help me improve my marks in math methods and specialist. I was getting Bs mostly and some Cs and needed to improve to As within less than two terms before the finals. With Andrew we moved quickly to the harder exercises and did many problems above topic, this helped me be much more confident I could really ace my tests, which happened in the same term! He also helped me so much understand the requirements of the assignments with all the their details and I got As in both too. I finished with A+ in methods and A- in specialist and got admitted to my first degree choices in two excellent universities (Sydney and Melbourne). The things that helped me so much with Andrew were his work with higher level material and his very accurate and clear explanations, he is also very encouraging and approachable, unless some school teachers. Andrew's skills and personal approach to tuition are exceptional and I recommend him very much!

To whom it may concern: Andrew was recommended to me by a friend who was his long term student and who had improved a lot in HL Math so I decided to get his help with this subject as well. We did a full revision and prepared also for the topic paper which was in Statistics. Andrew helped me clarify some concepts and types of exercises which fortunately came in the finals! He has very thorough knowledge of what is tested and his explanations are always so clear that I had the impression I could do much more right after every lesson. I managed to finish with a 6, ATAR of 96 and got unconditional admissions from UNSW, ANU and finally the University of Sydney which also gave me a scholarship. I have since recommend Andrew to other friends, his level of support and experience, and the confidence he brought to my preparation were top notch.

Andrew was my Maths tutor for nearly 2 years. He helped me a lot in Stage 1 and 2 Maths Methods, and specially Specialist Maths. I found Maths became very easy after he taught me different maths skills, problem solving skils, exam skills and different maths concepts. With Andrew's guidance and support I managed to obtain an ATAR of 99.65 and the National Merit scholarship at the University of Melbourne; I was also invited to attend the SACE Merit Ceremony last 5th of February 2019. Andrew is a very reliable and patient tutor, he can solve every hard maths problem for me and takes time to explain them. He assisted me a lot in my maths folios by suggesting a great deal of useful and interesting ideas and teaching me how to explain them well. Andrew is a very important role in my Maths study in high school. Before we started lessons I already had average Maths marks of about 90%, Andrew encouraged me to aim for excellence and made the concepts easier, more clear, bringing my averages to over 95%. My final SACE scores were ideal with Andrew's help because I got A plus and A for my two maths subjects. Andrew is an excellent Maths tutor and I cannot recommend him enough!
Thank you for teaching me Maths I enjoyed the lessons very much.
Yours sincerely

I started tuition with Andrew in term 1 last year. My grades were suffering and my tests couldn't go above 30. It was a desperate situation. Before finishing term 2 I managed to improve to mid to upper seventies and then continued improving the rest of the year. My improvement was of over 50% for the year. I consider Andrew exceptional because the way he explained those concepts making them so easy to understand, and the expectation and trust in my capabilities. Now I'm fully confident I can go through year 12 and uni with success.

My highest praises for Andrew and his exceptional work with my son over the last three years. In a matter of a few lessons, Andrew helped Robbie be convinced that Math could be understood and enjoyed, and finally mastered. Andrew helped him increase his marks from nearly failing to 80%s and 90%s in two terms and then maintain them high throughout the rest of his schooling. His confidence improved to levels we wouldn't have imagined. I couldn’t believe Robbie was doing Andrew’s homework by himself from the first lesson!! Now that he has completed this stage of his life, and has been admitted to the Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the University of Melbourne, we are convinced he will have an excellent basis for his career. Andrew is very patient, it is also evident he has a great deal of experience, and he does his best to make Math as easy and pleasant as possible. My most sincere recommendation of Andrew’s tutoring services to all parents and students.

Andrew is simply the best tutor I have had, and by far. He provided me with a comprehensive, meticulous service unmatched in rigour and detail with a high degree of specialization for my individual needs (Stage 2 Math Methods). My experience with him yielded very rewarding results, increasing my grades significantly on short notice. Of particular note, Andrew excelled in his detailed explanation of concepts, practical techniques and unique motivation to succeed. Andrew instilled a deeper foundational understanding of concepts that were often only given surface level explanations in class. I was able to understand these concepts in a more holistic way, due to his patient and effective explanations. Additionally his demeanour was always encouraging and helpful, while insisting I gained full mastery of a concept before moving on, and then later following up on my retention of these concepts. Andrew's approach is informed, systematic and effective while remaining warm and unintimidating. In addition to helping me understand the most complicated concepts, Andrew provided me with a host of tips, habits and tricks to succeed in study, class and under exam circumstances. Andrew applied the same systematic, easy-to-follow approach as with presenting math concepts in how to be effective in all other aspects of the course, providing indeed a tutoring service that is truly comprehensive and leaves no stone unturned. It is no use understanding the concepts if you buckle under exam pressure or study time is not optimised. Andrew’s advice allowed me to face exam stress and anxiety and remain focused during my final Stage 2 exams while managing my time effectively. These lessons have been invaluable and have retained their relevance and applicability in my current university studies. In addition to developing a greater mathematical understanding and assisting in exams and study, Andrew provided me with a unique motivation I have not found with any other tutor, and very few teachers. When working with Andrew, he inspired me to achieve my absolute best academic performance. While I was often indifferent towards my math teachers at school, when working with Andrew I was motivated to succeed, simply due to the faith and respect he put in me. Andrew's tutoring service is unique in its almost scientific efficiency and depth, not only covering course material but providing wide-ranging avenues to success not taught in the classroom while remaining extremely engaging. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to any student, whether struggling with maths or simply looking to reach peak performance.

We used Andrew to help our year 4 son gain confidence in maths after a particularly difficult year. Casey's teacher was not the approachable type and Casey just buried himself at the back of the maths class hoping he wouldn't get asked a question. His tests all came back with very poor results and "see me", bet there seemed to be no following up and no time to explain the maths to him on a one on one basis. By the end of the year he was convinced he was hopeless at maths and would never understand it. So we embarked on "getting a tutor" for Casey, during the summer holidays, so that he'd feel more positive about maths at the start of year 5. After his first lesson with Andrew Casey showed more positivity and after six or seven lessons started talking about "getting an A in maths". He was always keen to go to his lesson (unlike Kumon, which I'd tried the year prior) and he showed a concentration level I never dreamed of. Each lesson was an hour and a half, on Andrew's recommendation, and I could scarcely believe that Casey remained focused and attentive throughout the whole session. Every time. Of course getting him to do the worksheets for homework was a little harder but nonetheless Andrew had made enough of an impression that Casey didn't want to disappoint him. So he worked quite hard at home to make progress on the sheets that Andrew emailed to me, regularly and without fail - and with answers! Furthermore, Andrew was always prompt, never let us down with attendance, and was always readily available on his mobile or via email. I received updates on Casey's progress and felt that Andrew was as personally invested in Casey's education as we were. Upon returning to school Casey has continued going from strength to strength in his math skills, his confidence has grown by leaps and bounds and instead of being demoralised with new content he's enthusiastic and willing to do his homework. An ideal situation for any parent. In short, I can recommend Andrew very highly as he is a specialised maths tutor, which is not easy to find, and he turned Casey round from hating maths to being the student who helps the kid next to him. Please don't hesitate to contact me regarding Andrew - I would be delighted to speak to you personally to commend him.
Sincerely

Hi Andrew, thank you so much for your support throughout 2019! As mentioned on my email I went from failing my initial math tests last year to improving over 50% in only one term!! This helped me receive my first preference for University, which as a Bachelor course for Social Work at the University of NSW! I also received an invitation to study at the University of Sydney (however I've finally chosen UNSW). I'm excited to start to see where it takes me! Thank you for all your help during the year! I'm all very pleased with my results and am relieved to know that they are a product of my best efforts. Kind regards Teani
