I…
I believe this varies with the student's age and the goal of tutoring. For younger high-school students, the most important thing is guiding them through the subject/s they find tricky, to develop academic confidence and inspire an intrinsically motivated learner. However, with senior high-school students seeking to maximize their ATAR or other…

Everybody learns differently, and trying to apply the same approach to everyone is going to leave students struggling and frustrated. I adapt my teaching style to the way a student learns, and don't enforce a certain way of thinking - instead, I equip them with the tools to approach any problem in a way that works for them. I have two years'…

This can…
I thought our tutor was very good, and was very happy with the professionalism. Many thanks Keep up the good work.,
Morgan (my son) reckons she is fantastic, and that she is really helping him out tremendously at the moment. He says he is understanding the work etc. I think the best part is that he is listening and communicating with her
Hello, I am sorry I have been so uncommunicative. Dev was lovely and I was sorry to see her go. She helped Thea very much with her maths and did herself out of a job. Thea and her teacher told me that she had caught up and was actually finishing before everyone else. I hope however, I can get Dev back if Thea's maths falls back again. She was really fantastic and can highly recommend her.
