As a qualified teacher (PGCE + QTS, UK) with over 5 years of classroom experience, I offer supportive, engaging Math lessons for primary-aged students (Years 1–6) in Melbourne and online. My goal is always to build confidence, fluency, and enjoyment, for learners who may have struggled with traditional approaches or learners who need help with secondary entrance exams. ️ My Teaching Style & Methodology I tailor every lesson to the pupil's current ability, attainment goals, and learning style, using practical, visual and verbal strategies to make concepts clear and memorable. To better develop metacognition. I focus on building foundational number sense, problem-solving skills, and mental Math fluency. For students who feel anxious or “behind,” I work patiently to fill learning gaps and build positive learning habits. I use a mix of traditional resources, creative tasks, and real-life examples to keep math relevant and motivating. Each session includes: A warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge Step-by-step concept teaching using clear explanations Plenty of guided practice with feedback A short recap to check understanding and build retention Lesson Format & Duration Lessons are typically 60 minutes (or 45 mins for younger learners or students with attention difficulties). Available in-person (Melbourne CBD & North) or online via Zoom with interactive tools.

John is a great and very knowledgeable tutor who takes an individual approach to teaching. My son's math skills have improved significantly, and he has become much more interested in learning since starting lessons with John. I am very grateful and would highly recommend him.
I've known Johnny since university—he's one of the kindest and most genuine people I’ve ever met. As a teacher, he brings patience, heart, and a natural instinct for teaching that few possess. He’s not just focused on the subject matter, but on helping young minds grow with care and confidence. Any student would be lucky to have him as a teacher.
John is reliable, hardworking and committed to supporting students to reach their optimum. He has great empathy connects well with his students making learning fun and interesting, with these combinations students flourish!
My daughter has held regular lessons with John to improve her mathematics level with great success in both her test results and her enjoyment of the subject overall.
John is a kind and patient teacher who is very thoughtful when it comes to the student’s needs and helps creates a relaxed atmosphere. He has shown time and time again that he has a passion for learning and finding out how an individual can achieve their goals in their own way.
A bonus is that his infectious interest in other subjects (especially history) has also positively impacted our Daughter’s studies and deepened her knowledge in other areas.
I can highly recommend John to students of all abilities. He has also taught a friend’s son as per my recommendation and is equally impressed already.
We look forward to the next lesson! (as always)I've had John teach my son for a couple months now. My son has really enjoyed the lessons, as well as substantially improved his confidence and ability at his maths work! I would highly recommend John as a tutor. He's a very experienced teacher, having previously been a primary school teacher in the UK. I feel lucky to have found John!
