I'll get in touch with you to understand your needs better. Just reach out and I'm more than happy to discuss your particular needs. Group tutoring are also available at a discount, please get in touch! Who am I? I'm a Chemical Engineering graduate from McGill, has a passion for assessments (especially maths assessments) and develops a passion for good teaching. I'm a mock exam writer (duh, I have an entire mocks server) since May 2020, writing papers for both AA and AI every exam season. I've been a session leader and occasionally revision organiser on the IB server for some time now. Here's the link to so...

[AAHL] (Unit Test v2.4) Further Calculus

Image
Hiya! Newton's law of cooling. Forced vibrations. Welcome to the world of differential equations.   Don't worry, there won't be any actual physics here. This test is slightly different from the rest - all the questions are mixed up. 2 standards instead of 3, but I promise you'll still run out of time. All three types of first-order differential equations in the course + McClaury, stretching even the strongest students.   If you're looking for more personalised support, don't hesitate to reach out and complete the form !

[AASL] Survival Paper B4

Hiya! This is yet another post in the Survival Paper series. Seven questions, seven opportunities to brush up on the basics. Today's test features quadratics, coordinate geometry and definite integrals, besides other topics. At this point, if you haven't yet mastered these basic skills, please go straight to the Survival Guide for a comprehensive checklist of the basics. Same as the last Survival Paper, all papers start with a B means calculator use is expected where appropriate.

[AAHL] (Unit Test v2.4) Vectors

Image
Hiya! Lines and planes can be complex, can't they? On today's test we'll start with a standard on basics of vectors and the dot/cross products, equations of lines and planes and simultaneous equations. Obviously, HK is making an appearance here as the exams have  really good  simultaneous equations questions.  The actual test isn't gonna be this easy lmao Standard 2 is a time crunch.  Budget your time accordingly - if you're after that 7, you gotta speed up at the other standards.  If you're looking for more personalised support, don't hesitate to reach out and complete the form !
