The most important thing apart from helping the student understand that they can solve things on their own, is teaching the student how to study the subject. This way, the student will gradually understand how learning the subject works. I have a lot of patience and I am very good at using logistics. I can explain the same thing in many different…

I think tutors fill a different role than teachers and parents, putting them in a unique position to support students. Personal relationships are very important to student success, the more connected a student feels to his or her tutor, the more the tutor creates trust and respect, which is essential for students to learn. I think my main…

I think the most important thing a maths tutor can do for student is to understand the best learning method of their students, and suit the teaching approach to that. This is important because each students have different and sometimes unique effective method of studying, hence a uniform approach of teaching to all students don't always work. This…

I believe that building a strong teacher-student relationship is the most important thing. Most students who seek for tutoring are either aiming to break their limits, or catch up with others. Both motivation requires significant support from their peers, thus, as a maths tutor, building a strong TSR can robustly improve students' learning…

Becoming a lifelong role model is crucial in supporting students. Many of them keep their issues hidden, and as adults, we may overlook or avoid addressing these concerns. Some students might not even recognize they have problems. Being a dependable role model and a safe space for them are among the most vital ways to help them. Patience: Having…

The most important thing a maths tutor can do for a student is make them feel comfortable and inculcate a 'can do' attitude. Make sure that they understand that if they put their mind to it, anything is possible and go along with them on that journey. I'm a 21yr old post graduate student. This puts me in roughly the same generation as the…

For the less motivated students, a maths tutor can help them gain interest in the subject, which I think is the most important thing for a learner. For most of the students, a tutor should be a guide to lead them to pick up knowledge points bit by bit and finally have a general clear map of them. I am quite good at being with people, no matter…

As a maths tutor, I think it's important to be there for them.

Firstly, a maths tutor has to be able to understand the student's needs and then personalise a learning plan/ style that works for the student - one size does not fit all! Secondly, the tutor needs to guide the student not get them to parrot generic question answers. It's about building the students confidence up, through positive encouragement,…

Local Reviews

Amir has been fantastic and Riley has really enjoyed his sessions.
Tory

Inside West MelbourneTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ava practised long division and worked on times tables, reinforcing strategies for multi-digit calculations.

In Year 10, Hamish focused on solving systems of linear equations using elimination and revisited the distance formula between two points, building understanding through step-by-step problem walkthroughs.

For Year 11, Mia explored function notation and transformations, including graphing piecewise-defined functions and finding inverses with attention to domain and range.

Recent Challenges

Homework was not always completed on time by a Year 10 student, with missed textbook practice slowing progress in mastering functions and quadratic equations.

In Year 7 maths, "she still has a slight habit of inconsistency in her intermediary steps," which led to confusion when working through times tables beyond 5.

A senior chemistry student became overwhelmed by the volume of new content, leading to unfinished assignments and less focus during sessions after school tests—"the amount of information is overwhelming and it is hard to know what to focus on." This left key revision tasks incomplete before assessments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in West Melbourne noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated with redox reactions is now consistently finding oxidation states correctly after targeted practice.

Another high schooler has started asking for more challenging math questions, showing real initiative—last week, she independently worked through rectangular hyperbola problems that used to cause confusion.

At the primary level, one student cut her 10-times-table timing nearly in half (from over eight minutes to just four), and now volunteers to explain her steps out loud without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I am very happy with my son's tutor so far. We have only had 2 sessions & already my son is doing his homework after school everyday, without being asked. He also is impressing his tutor with his knowledge. They both relate with each other & I can see good things for my son's future.

I think Molly is really getting a lot out of the sessions and a lot of support. I think that she is also a good role model for Molly.

Michelle is awesome and has taught me so much in a short amount of time. She never doubts my level of ability and is always encouraging me to go above and beyond. Her knowledge of specific maths topics is just out of this world. You guys have one awesome lady on your hands!

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 Haileybury College - City Boys.
