I believe in the importance of developing a student's own independent thinking skills, so that they gather the confidence to correctly respond to any problem that an exam or test may pose individually as I, the tutor, will not be there to help in assessments. By doing this, the student can cement beneficial study habits and obtain their academic…

Local Reviews

Jenny is an excellent tutor. She was incredibly patient with Zoe and a really good teacher. Zoe was really happy and confident working with her and felt safe to ask questions and sometimes because of her illness she could not really concentrate but Jenny stayed patient and really worked well with her. I highly recommend Jenny.

Inside MalvernTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Dishita focused on normal distribution and the 68-95-99.7 rule using past exam questions, as well as in-depth work on time series analysis and deseasonalisation techniques from VCAA practice exams.

Year 11 student Bianca tackled tricky measurement and geometry problems, including surface area and volume of complex shapes, while also consolidating understanding of bearings with targeted homework from recent chapters.

For Year 3 student Ari, sessions concentrated on multiplication facts through card games and hands-on division activities, along with visual strategies for solving fraction problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student repeatedly avoided highlighting or writing out key information in data analysis and regression exam questions, which led to confusion about what was actually being asked. As one tutor noted, "she needs to highlight the key points in the question to guide her understanding." This meant she often had to reread questions multiple times, losing valuable time and sometimes missing marks for incomplete answers.

In Year 3 mathematics, a student's messy note-taking made it difficult to spot calculation errors in subtraction problems; attempts to improve layout during lessons helped but were not consistently carried into homework.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Malvern recently noticed Dishita, a senior student, applying the 'talk-aloud' strategy to break down complex normal distribution problems—something she previously found overwhelming. She now highlights key points and selects relevant formulas independently when tackling exam-style questions.

Rose, in upper primary, had been struggling with long division steps; after working through a step-by-step method together, she can now solve these problems on her own with just the occasional slip.

Meanwhile, Ari in Year 3 has shifted from needing frequent breaks during number tasks to persisting through challenging multiplication problems using mental strategies before reaching for visual aids.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Emma and I are very happy with Philip as a tutor.  All is going very well.  Phil seems very reliable and conscientious and offers appropriate support but allows Emma to work the problems herself which she appreciates.

So far all is going well , Andrew is fantastic and easy to communicate with. We have had three sessions so far and this term he will be working on the next unit of work rather than just exam revision.

All seems to be going well with Jared. We are overseas at the moment so have put tutoring on hold. Griffin said he likes Jared and is keen to continue tutoring, he said Jared is incredibly smart and always takes time to explain to him. We were worried as Griff seemed to be really attached to Nick and couldn't believe you would have someone as good to replace him. Where do you find these amazing young men?

Maths tutoring in Malvern

Our goal is to help your child become an independent learner. Ultimately they must succeed on their own, without a maths tutor. Otherwise, what's the point? Each student has their own path to intellectual independence but a tutor can certainly help in every case. Exam technique, revision, problem solving, study habits and many more "learning strategies" come into play. It can be a difficult road for our young people and mentorship from someone who has been there and done that can be the difference between success and failure.

So what do we do exactly?

We'll organise an in-home maths tutor in Malvern. They'll come over as often as you need and when you need. They will teach your child content while helping them absorb the learning skills required to succeed on their own. It's super important that your child feels the tutor is a good match for them. This is why we offer a "Good Fit Guarantee" - the first lesson is a trial. There are no cancellation costs or booking fees or any other "hidden costs". We keep it simple!

Talk to one of our consultants, help us understand what you need, when you need it, and we'll do the rest!

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 Malvern Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Joseph's School.
