English Tutor Bendigo, VIC
The ability to understand a student and their learning style is something I highly value in an english tutor. In school classes where they are often one of many, they may find that the teaching style may not work for them and that they cannot achieve their goals. In a tutoring scenario, we are able to cater to them more specifically, to be…

English Tutor Bendigo, VIC
I believe the most important thing an english tutor can do for students is to give them the confidence to believe in their abilities in order for them to view themselves as capable enough to learn new things, work hard and perform their best. This starts with the tutor identifying the student's area of need and working hard alongside them to…

English Tutor Spring Gully, VIC
A tutor must always fully and wholly understand his content and always develop innovative ways to communicate the information to their students; meaning - don't copy the textbook on a power point, instead develop your own materials My recent conclusion of year 12 gives me fresh knowledge on the current study designs, the appropriate material…

English Tutor
Teach them and act as a role model and helping hand for them. Encouragement in children goes long ways and its important we look out for the future generations. I believe my experience tutoring gives me strength, as does my ability to be able to communicate with students and engage with each student…

Local Reviews

Amy helped me update my math skills to get through a university math subject for mature age students (who had not studied math for a long time). She guided me toward excellent sources of information and supported me through the journey. I have no hesitation in recommending Amy to other children or adults requiring assistance in this area.

Inside KenningtonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Mia worked on recognising and converting between mixed and improper fractions, as well as representing fractions accurately on a number line.

Year 8 student Zane practised solving linear equations and interpreting algebra word problems, focusing on step-by-step solutions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Lily revised trigonometry basics by tackling trig problems and bearings, alongside continuing to develop her Wonder essay writing through planning and drafting paragraphs.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often left homework incomplete, particularly English assignments, making it hard to consolidate skills before new topics.

"Spelling and homework this week was not completed to his standard," one tutor noted after a rushed spelling test.

In Year 11 maths, missed practice with fractions showed up as confusion switching between addition and multiplication—without regular revision, gaps grew wider each session.

For a Year 5 student, untidy written working in long division made errors harder to spot; messy layout meant time lost rechecking steps instead of moving forward confidently.

By term's end, focus waned, leaving tasks unfinished and confidence dented.

Recent Achievements

A Kennington tutor recently noticed a big change in a Year 10 student who used to hesitate when stuck on worded maths problems—now, she openly asks for clarification instead of guessing, which has helped her solve trickier questions independently.

Another high schooler surprised himself by mastering composite functions ahead of his class; previously, he'd felt overwhelmed but now volunteers to tackle extra practice without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who struggled with homework organisation proudly brought in a neat folder and completed all assigned work for the first time, showing new ownership over her learning.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Christopher has a very great communication style and is fun and he made the lesson engaging and also challenging.

Washim has been great. Josephine received C/D marks last semester for Maths and has achieved an A- and a B+ for her most recent exams this term so her time with Washim has been very helpful.

Leon had his first session with Tabinder last Wednesday and I am pleased to say it went very well.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Bendigo Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like SEDA College (Victoria) - Multi Bendigo.
