Science Tutor Kennington, VIC
Ensure that the student has the basics down pat so that they can spend more time in the classroom dealing with any advanced concepts that require a fluency with the basics. I think I can explain things in a casual way that gets the big idea of a concept across, and to identify weak spots in students'…

Science Tutor Bendigo, VIC
The ability to understand a student and their learning style is something I highly value in a 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 intuitive about…

Science Tutor Flora Hill, VIC
Not only is it important to explain concepts well to students, it is also important to create a foundation for students to bounce back on, so that they can understand how to have enhanced learning for the long term. A good tutor should be inspiring so that students will be motivated to be life-long learners. I believe my experience with teaching…

Science Tutor Flora Hill, VIC
I believe being patient and considerate of each student is the most important thing for a tutor to do because this will make the learning space better for the student. If the student feels like their tutor is genuinely caring for their education then they will give their best. I can gauge when a student is or isn't understanding a concept, and can…

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

I just wanted to thank you and my son's tutor, Faraz, for all of your work with him over the last couple of months. I have found Aiden to be much calmer and more focused about the subject since Faraz started tutoring him, which has been fantastic. Aiden found Faraz extremely helpful in guiding his revision and assisting him with the components that he was struggling with.

It seems Gillian is really benefiting greatly from the tutoring and I must say that Joyce is a super star! She has somehow turned Gillian 180 degrees in her attitude to maths.

Lee has been terrific for Harry. He has helped Harry develop confidence and knowledge in Maths that certainly wasn't there at the start of the year. And the results Harry is achieving at school are outstanding. Thank you.

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.
