One of the most damaging things one can do as a tutor is establish a blind hierarchy with their student. A tutor does not impart facts and knowledge, he or she attempts to come, along with the student, to a mutual understanding of a concept and I find that much more constructive if you approach this from a peer perspective rather than an…

Local Reviews

I'm happy with Robert!
Joe, North Melbourne

Inside North MelbourneTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Oliver worked through multiplying and dividing fractions as well as solving simple algebraic equations using step-by-step examples.

In Year 8, Mia practised converting between decimals, fractions, and percentages, and simplified expressions by applying rules for order of operations.

For Year 10, Liam explored linear graphs—focusing on expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions before interpreting inequalities on number lines.

Recent Challenges

Messy layout caused issues for a Year 7 student when aligning digits in multi-step multiplication—"she sometimes wrote the ones in the tens column," leading to confusion and extra zeros.

In Year 10, incomplete working out during linear equation problems hid errors with negative signs, as noted: "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

For a senior student tackling data analysis, relying on calculator outputs without manually checking units (km/h vs m/s) resulted in inconsistent answers across practice questions.

Unclear written working left mistakes undetected until review, slowing progress and adding frustration during revision.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in North Melbourne noticed a Year 10 student who had struggled with expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions—especially with negative numbers—was able to work through order of operations confidently by the end of the session, showing real independence compared to last week's hesitation.

In another high school lesson, a student who'd previously mixed up how to use formulas for speed, distance, and time began choosing the right equations on their own for real-life scenarios.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student moved from confusion about subtracting larger digits to solving these problems accurately without prompting, even explaining her steps out loud.

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 North Melbourne Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like North Melbourne Primary School.
