Science Tutor Flora Hill, VIC
Not only is it important to explain concepts well to students, it is also important to create a foundation for students to bounce back on, so that they can understand how to have enhanced learning for the long term. A good tutor should be inspiring so that students will be motivated to be life-long learners. I believe my experience with teaching…

Science Tutor Bendigo, VIC
The ability to understand a student and their learning style is something I highly value in a tutor. In school classes where they are often one of many, they may find that the teaching style may not work for them and that they cannot achieve their goals. In a tutoring scenario, we are able to cater to them more specifically, to be intuitive about…

Science Tutor Flora Hill, VIC
I believe being patient and considerate of each student is the most important thing for a tutor to do because this will make the learning space better for the student. If the student feels like their tutor is genuinely caring for their education then they will give their best. I can gauge when a student is or isn't understanding a concept, and can…

Local Reviews

I started being tutored by Ali during my long holidays in December to try to get ahead of the new year 8 in 2022. His action plans and weekly lesson plans helped me so much to stay on track with my Year 8 math and has had a massive help on improving my confidence whenever I sit down to do an exam. The change in marks that I noticed was immediate and I am on my way to the top. I can say it's honestly due to his tutoring and I haven't found a tutor so invested in helping me yet. Thanks Ali

Inside Quarry HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Zane worked on understanding maths operations and the order of operations, as well as improving English comprehension by responding in full sentences.

Year 8 student completed revision of fractions, tackled area calculations for triangles, and practised writing strong sentences in English.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student explored solving linear equations in mathematics and focused on proofreading alongside introduction writing for English essays.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student, reflecting on a recent maths test, couldn't review mistakes as the paper was misplaced—"I was hoping to take a look at Quinn's previous test but we were unable to find it." This gap meant missed opportunities for feedback and improvement.

In Year 9, a student's homework remained incomplete several weeks running, which delayed progress on core skills in algebra.

Meanwhile, in Year 6, messy working and skipped steps in fraction questions made it hard to spot where understanding broke down; extra time was lost retracing errors instead of building confidence with new material.

Recent Achievements

One Quarry Hill tutor noted that a Year 11 student, Quinn, used to hesitate with advanced maths topics but now confidently tackles composite functions—something he'd previously found daunting.

Another high school student showed a real shift by starting to ask for help as soon as she got stuck, rather than staying quiet and guessing through problems.

Meanwhile, a younger learner who often forgot spelling words surprised her tutor last week by recalling every word from memory during their session and reading aloud with clearer understanding than before.

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 Bendigo Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Quarry Hill Primary School.
