Harry McDonald

Hey there! My name's Harry and I've been a personal tutor for the last 6 years while studying engineering at UQ.

I've had amazing success with students from grade 7 all the way up to grade 12 and have found that the key to success is finding the student's "Why?". Often I'm asked: "Why do I need to know this?" and for everyone the answer to that is different, but once you find it, studying becomes something worthwhile, and that's the key for me.

In terms of my academic background, I graduated year 12 with the equivalent of an OP 1, a distinction in first-year university math and academic honours (straight A's). I have since graduated from Mechatronic Engineering at UQ with a GPA of 6 and spent 2 years working in an agri-tech start-up as an engineer.

While I love the technical side of engineering and education, my passion and talents have always been in motivating and helping others; and this is the main reason I built Students for Students, my team of tutors bringing high-school mentoring to every area in Brisbane.

Personally, I specialise in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and English and offer private tutoring on a weekly basis along with assignment editing from home.

Reach out and ask some questions! Spots usually fill up pretty quick!
