I'm very patient and 'chill': I find it easy to relate to students and have fun with teaching. I also am very quick to change my teaching style if I feel like a student isn't quite responding to…

I firmly believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student, is to guide them through their learning journey, such that your not trying to provide the answer to students but rather help them construct their own explanation and solution.

Inside Officer SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Elisha worked on place value and long multiplication, stepping back to solidify foundational number skills before moving towards more complex operations.

In Year 7, Naomi focused on algebraic techniques and understanding place values, starting with a pre-year assessment to identify strengths and gaps.

For Year 8, Colin practiced simplifying algebraic expressions and explored different types of number patterns, using worked examples for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student sometimes left homework incomplete, as seen when sections of assigned work were missing; this meant time in-session was spent catching up rather than extending learning.

In a senior maths session, confusion arose during trigonometry problems due to over-reliance on calculators and skipping written working—"he did it all on the calculator but couldn't explain the steps."

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student avoided longer worded questions in her workbook by skipping them entirely if they looked complex, only realising their simplicity once reviewed together.

One Year 10 student repeatedly overlooked tutor feedback, especially regarding misreading perimeter and area questions, which led to recurring errors across tasks.

Recent Achievements

One Officer South tutor noticed a big shift in Naomi, a Year 9 student who used to get stuck on worded maths questions—she now pauses to break down what's being asked before starting her calculations, instead of guessing or freezing.

In another high school session, Ella managed to factorise and expand independently after struggling with these steps earlier in the term.

For a younger student, Elisha (Year 5) has begun reading more fluently out loud and recently wrote two essays packed with detailed ideas, showing she's moving from basic summaries to richer writing without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Agnes quickly determined the areas that we could see Charlotte was struggling with. It was lovely to see Charlotte's body language change during the course of the first session from slumped over looking disinterested to sitting up and engaging with Agnes by the end of the hour. I had never seen her like that when we have sat down to do maths before. I knew that I lacked the strategies to give to Charlotte and Agnes is certainly showing her these patiently and with the support she needed.

Yes very happy with Phoebe she is a wonderful tutor & very pleasant towards my girls  they feel at ease with her as she explains all maths concepts in the simplest of forms (much to the delight. of my daughter Phoebe who said she's learned/understood a lot more in the last three weeks than she had learned all of last year) &  she's building up their confidence to have a more positive outlook when approaching their maths homework!

I just got back from the US this morning we are very happy with Rhett and Connor has really clicked with him and his teaching methods. Under Rhetts tutoring Connor managed to go from a fail to a C+ 65% on his resit after only two sessions with Rhett so a great achievement if we had the ability to have more sessions with Rhett we would happily take them.

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