The most important role for a maths tutor is to get the best out of the students. This can take many forms but ultimately requires the tutor to be flexible in their teaching approach, understand the areas the student is struggling with and provide support in a way that is best received by the student. I'm highly organised which enables me to be…

It is paramount to develop an equitable learner/teacher coalition in which a sense of discovery is at the fore. Results and grades are important but the journey must be enjoyable and maintain a sense of real life application. Developing a personal relationship is very important otherwise there is no need for the student to use a real person as a…

I believe the most important part of tutoring is establishing a basis for further understanding rather than promoting memory based learning. Instead, I believe a good tutor should seek to develop a students intuition, allowing for a more rounded and stress-free learning experience.

Developing a relationship with students. From experience, if there is no relationship with a student, the less likely they are going to want to learn and engage in my tutoring sessions.

The requisite ability of a maths tutor is to teach, but the far more difficult and far more important task is to give context on what a student is learning.

The most important thing a maths tutor can do is listen to the student and try to understand what it is they actually need to learn. Sometimes a tutor is teaching something but they are not actually listening to what the student is asking, which is false. It is also important to personalise how a tutor teaches to how a student learns. Although…

I've found that one of the most important things for a maths tutor to keep in mind is pacing. Some students take longer to form a complete understanding of the concepts they are learning, and need a bit more guidance and time (and that's fine!). Others can blitz through content and tend to enjoy more challenging (extension-type) questions. It's…

Both of these aspects foster a respectful and…

Inside TyabbTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Chloe practised solving simultaneous equations and worked on extended response writing, focusing on clear mathematical reasoning.

Year 11 student Ethan tackled matrices and quadratics, with extra time spent correcting mistakes from previous work to consolidate understanding.

For Year 12, Maddie completed exam-style chemistry questions on organic chemistry, alongside practice with advanced calculus topics such as integrals and differentiation in Methods.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student, when working through algebraic problems, often skipped showing full steps—skipped steps in simultaneous equations led to confusion and small sign errors, a tutor noted.

In VCE Chemistry, another senior student relied heavily on the data booklet but sometimes overlooked key details or forgot it could assist with questions about hydrocarbons' structures.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner avoided attempting homework independently and would only engage with worded maths problems when prompted.

One Year 11 student struggled to keep organized; over a month's worth of schoolwork remained incomplete, leading to anxiety during test revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

One Tyabb tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously made frequent calculation errors now making significantly fewer mistakes in her chemistry calculations, especially when balancing equations.

A Year 9 learner who used to guess on reading comprehension questions is starting to pause and re-read passages before answering, showing less reliance on guessing and more independent thinking.

Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 4—who was hesitant about homework—recently attempted all assigned times tables without prompting, marking the first time he's taken that initiative himself.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Our tutor, Amy, came to our place yesterday for my son's first session.  Thought I'd give you a bit of feedback.........she was lovely, had been keeping in touch beforehand, and Alex seemed to show signs of much improved motivation !! She clearly is experienced in tutoring students and at this very early stage I think we're off to a great start.

I have some results to report. Wari has sat three tests in the last week or so, the results are: Maths - 95.5%; Chemistry - 100%; Economics - 77% (no coaching in this subject). We are very happy with these results, especially the chemistry one as she has had the most trouble with that subject. Last week, before the Friday chemistry test they did two hours on chemistry, she found the lessons very hard, but the following test very straight forward. In the maths test, she actually did all the calculations correctly but lost marks for rounding an answer incorrectly and rounding a couple of other answers when she shouldn't have! We are very happy with Alexander's teaching, although we are not sitting in the room, he sounds very clear and concise. Another very important thing to consider  is that she is very happy with her results and is gaining more self confidence, and, I think, is generally more relaxed and happy with life.

More importantly, I want to let you know that Hannah, Peter and I are very happy with Phal - she's super smart, friendly and a great communicator.  She's lifted Hannah's confidence within a few short weeks and, circumstances permitting, we look forward to a long and productive tutoring association with her.

Maths tutoring in Tyabb

If you take a few minutes to read through our reviews, you will probably feel surprised. Tutoring changes students' lives! Most parents organise a maths tutor just to boost a student's grades. Maybe even to take the burden of homework help off their own shoulders. However, a tutor does so much more than boosting grades and helping with homework.

Often the student's confidence increases and their grades increase across all subjects. They learn that directed effort results in improvement and that is a form of empowerment! This is what we're all about, our mission is to facilitate life-changing student-tutor matches. There is just nothing better than having a sense of self confidence and faith in your own competence.

We'll organise a maths tutor in Tyabb or any other location that works. You chose the time. You chose what you want the tutor to work on (or if you don't know, they can figure it out). You chose how often to have the tutoring. It's all up to you!

Give us a call on 1300 312 354 or enquire below. We'll have a chat to understand your needs and organise for one of our local Tyabb maths tutors to reach out. If you don't like the first lesson you won't be charged!

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 Somerville Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Tyabb Railway Station Primary School.
