What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
All of the kids I have tutored have always enjoyed my company, but start off with little interest in the actual learning. I love watching them gain an interest for what is being taught to them as a result of engaging and enthusiastic lessons!My Strengths as Tutor 💪
Able to level with the students as a young adult, and can safely say I have been on both sides of the academic spectrum, so I know how good it feels to understand things, as well as how difficult it can be to not understand something at all.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
The student will get little from the sessions if they don’t find what is being taught to them as fun or exciting. Thats why as a tutor, you need to make them look forward to seeing you next, and ensure you always have a positive attitude towards their learning journey.Tutoring students in 👦 👧

About Matthew
Engaging Maths and English Support with Real Classroom Experience
Matthew brings hands-on experience working with children as a summer camp instructor, where he designed and ran activities that kept students focused, learning and having fun. During this time, he provided private tutoring in Maths, English, and Arts & Crafts, tailoring lessons to each child’s learning style. Parents can expect sessions that balance structure and creativity, with clear explanations, practical examples, and plenty of encouragement to build confidence, especially for students who may be anxious or easily distracted.
Strong Academic Background and Clear Communication Skills
Currently studying a Bachelor of Science with a focus on computing and software systems, Matthew is used to breaking down complex ideas into logical, step-by-step processes—an approach he brings directly into Maths and English tutoring. In school he was trusted to deliver the commencement speech for his graduating class, showing his ability to communicate clearly and connect with an audience. This tutor uses these skills to explain tricky concepts in simple language and to help students organise their thoughts in writing.
Motivated Role Model with Leadership and Mentoring Experience
Matthew has a track record of taking initiative and leading others, from heading his school powerlifting club to mentoring younger students in an investment society. These experiences mean he understands how to motivate different personalities and set achievable goals. He also volunteers in community projects and fosters rescue dogs, which has strengthened his patience and sense of responsibility. In tutoring sessions, he uses these qualities to help students develop resilience, stay on task, and take pride in their progress.
