Ancient History Tutor Upwey, VIC
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be a role model. Someone who can sympathise with the difficulties and experiences of a student and can give them effective strategies for personal development to set them ahead. Understanding goes a long way in furthering trust and academic confidence for a student. Asking them about…

We have been very happy with Ahmed’s support and assistance with Bridgette’s maths progress this year. She has most definitely benefited from his tuition.

Inside Menzies CreekTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 Isaac focused on analysing political cartoons for English, with close attention to scene analysis in The Princess Bride, while also revising key Finance concepts and using the finance solver for Maths.

Year 5 Daniel worked on times tables recall, practiced adding and subtracting fractions, and strengthened his understanding of 24-hour time.

Meanwhile, Year 8 Vien developed main arguments for a practice essay and refined sentence re-wording to improve clarity in preparation for upcoming SACs.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student's essay planning slowed under time pressure, with the tutor observing, "He needs to think and plan faster on his own as well due to the time limit during the actual SAC."

In Year 10 English, over-long sentences muddled meaning and made arguments harder to follow.

For a Year 7 maths student, homework was often incomplete—meaning valuable class time was spent relearning previously covered content rather than advancing.

Meanwhile, a primary student hesitated to attempt new subtraction concepts without prompting, leading to slower progress when unfamiliar material appeared.

In each case, these process challenges shaped what could be achieved in-session.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Menzies Creek noticed some real shifts this term. One high school student who'd struggled with structuring essays could now not only brainstorm relevant ideas but also spot when a paragraph became clearer after reworking it—something he found confusing before.

Another older student, after weeks of hesitating to ask for help, began communicating openly whenever she hit a roadblock in maths and was able to work through new questions on her own by the end of the session.

Meanwhile, a younger student who used to give up easily on tricky spelling words is now sounding them out first and even attempts unfamiliar ones aloud without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Hi Erica, Thanks for the follow up email.  Currently I am offshore and will be back in Perth around the 19th. I am sure Alex is going well, however time will tell.  Louise and Myself are happy with Safire.

We have got off to a great start with Devina.  Aiden has really enjoyed the sessions so far and finds Devina explains everything extremely well, actually much better than his teacher at school.  We are making really good progress and even after such a short time Aiden has gained so much more confidence with his maths,  so many thanks for sending her our way.

Timothy is very happy with how things are going with Jerome.  Tim feels like he is learning and is comfortable with Jerome who I have found to be a very polite young man.  Tim has not had any tests or exams since he began tutoring, I'm sure we will see an improvement at that time.

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 Emerald Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Dandenong Ranges Steiner School - School Road Campus.
