See my 2009 HSC results in my sig

I am very knowledgeable with the content, and have helped TONS of people on the maths forums ( however, i do believe there are certain topics and types of questions that cannot really be explained well over the internet and must be explained by actually doing some examples in persons, as maths is largely a "doing" subject) , so I would definately be an extremely helpful resource in your study of maths, being able to help out with questions, or explain the theory behind the content in a personalised way to make sure you UNDERSTAND ( not merely memorise) , greatly improve your maths marks, make maths enjoyable! and (possibly) your best subject. Additionally, I have had a semester experierence of tutoring maths for a program run by unsw, and of course during my high school days I was always being asked questions about maths ( and other subjects I did) so I know how to explain the content in as easy terms as possible.

Price: $25/hr

I am offering Japanese tutoring for high school students of all levels (i.e. up to HSC Extension), first and second year level university Japanese and can also help if you are keen to take up the Japanese language outside of an educational institution.

My credentials are:
HSC + University
Score of 99 in Japanese Continuers (2006)
Score of 96 in Japanese Extension (2006)
Ranked equal first and first respectively in my grade
Average score of over 90 in Japanese language subjects at UNSW

OTHER
Japanese Language Proficiency Test Level 2/N2
40th Annual Australian Japanese Language Speech Contest - National Champion

I can offer help and advice in regards to speaking, writing, reading and listening tasks for both academic and non-academic purposes and can also provide advice in regards to social and cultural aspects of Japanese which are very important to communication and are typically not taught in high schools!

The sessions are your time, so feel free to bring up any cultural/linguistic issues you need help with. My teaching style is focused around understanding how the language works rather than simply memorising grammatical rules and vocabulary - I would like to help potential students to see that Japanese isn't simply a subject that you learn at school or uni, but a fun and rewarding language to learn that can also be very useful!

Location: Hills area, Northern Sydney (Ryde, Epping etc), North Shore. Library or home is OK.

Fees: $40/hour (negotiable)

I really need some IDEAS and NOTES that you have experienced which may help me. My essays now just only get around high band 4 or rarely low band 5 :uhoh:.

- Australian voice: In this one i do the movie "The Castle" and "Crocodile Dundee". because it's only an hour writing therefore i gotta make it concisely.

- Belonging: This crazy long i do "The China Coin", 2 poems of Peter Skrzynecki which are " Feliks Skrzynecki" and " St Patrick's College"(SPC) and another short text. It was very long so i had to put the SPC and the short text together in order to shorten my time and it costs disadvantage as my teacher said it was not clear enough.

I really hope that you can help me in my HSC essays.
