Make them interested in what they are learning and make them understand why things work the way they do. I feel learning should not be about memorising rather understanding so that the logic can be used to solve a wide array of problems. I am passionate about the subjects I have highlighted above and am confident in explaining them in an…

Improving the confidence of the student is key. The student should evolve to have more trust in themselves and their abilities and be able to apply this. The most important thing I could do for the student is to help them achieve their own personal best and be motivated to achieve. I am a good listener. I apply this to pinpointing the key areas…

Without a doubt, I believe it is essential for a tutor to nurture and grow self-belief within their students beyond anything else. Self-belief is perhaps the most pivotal factor in deciding academic success as well as personal success, and thus I see it as an important quality for a tutor to develop . Whilst a tutor should also be avaliable,…

As a tutor, the most integral thing for a student to succeed is their interest in studying. Unless a student does not want to learn and succeed, they cannot achieve this, so it is important for tutors to inspire and encourage students during sessions.

Building confidence in young people is one…

Be available when the student needs it and care about the student's goals as much or more than the student.

Great communication and really understanding the students way of learning.

Inside TremontTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Daniel worked on simplifying fractions and solving problems involving coordinates and map scales, using practical examples to reinforce understanding.

In Year 8, Zoe practiced expanding and factorising algebraic expressions, then moved into evaluating composite functions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sarah focused on analysing parabolic graphs in turning point form and began basic trigonometry work through visual graphing exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9, one student tended to avoid harder maths problems, choosing familiar tasks and "prioritising known topics," as a tutor noted. This meant less exposure to the challenging concepts needed for growth.

A Year 12 English student sometimes struggled with planning essays under timed conditions—she jumped quickly into writing without pausing to "think big picture" about her response, leading to rushed introductions and unclear arguments.

In Year 11, another found it difficult to apply old grammar rules when reading unfamiliar texts, often forgetting key terminology because regular revision had been missed during exam prep. Confidence fluctuated after setbacks.

Recent Achievements

A Tremont tutor noticed one high school student who used to rush through maths questions now pauses to check her working before moving on—last session, she caught and corrected two of her own errors without prompting.

Another secondary student, previously hesitant about essay writing, is now outlining arguments independently and identifying which quotes support each point after some targeted practice.

For a younger learner, flash cards have made times tables click; he now answers quickly and even volunteers to explain his reasoning aloud. Last week, he completed all multiplication questions unaided for the first time.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are very happy with Michael. He has built up a good rapport with Jonathan and myself, he always arrives with a plan and has thought about each session in advance. My son's confidence is growing each week. He has a math test next week even though it still is early days it might give us a understanding of how things are going.

Desiree and Hyolie have Got off to a great start. Hyolie is very professional, patient and shows Desiree the relevance of everything she teaches her.  Desiree feels very comfortable with her and I look forward to a continued relationship between the two of them. I would also highly recommend Hyolie to other students.

Well the man is a genius - he can get Katie and Alex to focus for an hour, it's amazing and has ignited a small flame in their interest in Maths which I am sure will continue to grow over time. He has a great way of communicating and so far it seems to be working

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 Belgrave Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ferny Creek Primary School.
