Standard Ben is very diligent and commited. He tutored both my daughter's who showed marked improvement. He prepared for sessions and always kept us informed of the girls progress. He is a thoughtful and considerate guy and the girls responded well to his demeanour. I would highly recommend Ben to anyone that wants a tutor to elevate their child's academic performance.Damian O'Sullivan, Northcote
Year 8 student Seamus focused on trigonometry, specifically applying sine and cosine rules to solve triangle problems, and also reviewed algebraic simplification using index laws.
For Year 11, Mia completed revision of matrices—including operations like multiplication and finding inverses—and worked through weighted graphs with Dijkstra's algorithm from the networks chapter, practising questions for her upcoming SACs.
Meanwhile, Year 12 student Priya tackled exam-style questions on data analysis, including linear regression and standard deviation, while also strengthening her understanding of financial mathematics by practising compound interest problems.
During recent sessions, several process-related habits have stood out across both junior and senior levels.
In Year 11 maths, a student did not complete assigned homework or school holiday tasks; as the tutor observed, "she forgot most of the contents from chapter 7," making new work harder to grasp.
For a Year 12 student preparing for VCE, inconsistent note-taking and a lack of organisation in her bound reference book meant she struggled to quickly locate formulas during timed practice exams.
Meanwhile, a Year 8 student's written work in algebra was messy—her steps were unclear, leading to confusion when checking answers.
A tutor in Parkville noticed a Year 11 student who used to rush through maths sums is now taking time to spot and correct mistakes, leading to more accurate answers.
In English, a Year 10 student has begun incorporating specific evidence into essays after previously struggling to support arguments, and can now clearly structure paragraphs using the PEEL method.
From a younger group, one Year 5 student has started regularly asking questions when unsure instead of staying silent—something she rarely did before—and finished her multiplication practice independently by the end of the session.
