Bump!

Thanks so much for the extremely kind words and for all of your help!!

Anya is an incredible tutor. She really helped me to achieve my potential in English Advanced and allowed me to bump up my marks from being on track for a low Band 6 to eventually achieving 95 in the subject. This would not have been possible without Anya's amazing feedback and assistance with...

Hi, My name is Ben and I graduated in 2015. I achieved an ATAR of 99.65, achieving a Band 6/E4 in all 10 of my units. The subjects that I offer tutoring in, along with the score I achieved in these subjects, are as follows: English Advanced- 95 Mathematics- 98 Mathematics Extension One-...
