[EXPERIENCED AND 99.35 ATAR TUTORING FOR THE VCE CURRICULUM - 800+ HOURS] ATTENTION to all parents that want their children to have that extra edge among the classroom. If you are seeking top-notch tutoring services to elevate and unleash your child’s academic potential, let me tell you in 60 seconds why you’ve come to the right place. I'm part of a small team in Melbourne named Benchmark Tutoring that mainly specialises in Maths, English and Japanese for Pre-VCE and VCE students among other subjects. We consist of only qualified and high-achieving tutors (Upper 90 ATARs, Premier Awards etc.). Each tutor is a specialist in their respective subject - Maths Methods, Further Maths, Specialist Maths, Chemistry, VCE Japanese, Pre-VCE English/Maths and much more. We have a comprehensive training program and unlimited resource bank that you simply wouldn't find elsewhere. You may be wondering… Why should you choose us? We’ve turned average C+ students from all across Melbourne into high 90+ ATAR achievers like clockwork. We would like to share with you two fundamental but often overlooked elements of our tutoring that leads our students to success. Firstly, Structure: Even across so many subjects, we have found that students perform best when they have an easy-to-understand yet effective structure laid out in front of them. A structure on how to answer questions in the way that the top 1% of achievers do, employing all the little tricks that examiners love to see. We tailor our services to the personal needs of the student and this gives them a distinct advantage among the classroom. Next, Motivation: Now I will be completely honest with you, we can provide all of the support necessary to your child, but at the end of the day it relies on the work ethic of the student and how motivated they are to follow our structures. After an exhausting day at school, we understand it can be hard to gather up the motivation to hit the books. When needed, we are the type of tutors to act as a mentor - not in a strict, unempathetic way, but in a manner that inspires change by laying out a step-by-step pathway to achieving tangible goals. Furthermore, we often see our students build enthusiasm through our tutoring, which is a form of self-motivation that leads to better results every single time. But don’t take it from us, here are some snippets of what recent past students have said. “My tutor looked after me and gradually gave me the confidence I needed for the subject. He made personalised worksheets at the start of the year and then prepared me thoroughly for all of my SACs…” “Every lesson is well thought out - we have a set structure of things to accomplish within the class…” “I enjoyed the hands-on feedback, as well as the great learning environment, which made it very easy to communicate and speak my ideas…” “Thank you for helping me out through this year, I don’t know what I would’ve done without you” Encapsulated in our tutoring service, we offer: ✅ Individually tailored lesson plans to YOUR needs, whether that be catching up to the class or getting ahead ✅ FREE Trial Lesson with no commitment to ease your concerns ✅ Access to comprehensive resource banks including chapter notes, revision materials, exam practice etc. ✅ Online assistance outside of class hours to help with any questions ✅ No upfront costs at all - only charged after each lesson! To ease any concerns you may have, we are offering a completely free and zero-commitment trial lesson and we are confident that you will be highly impressed. Reach out today to discuss your child’s needs and goals with tutoring in more detail, and set up a trial lesson! Pricing - $55/hr for Pre-VCE lessons $60/hr for VCE lessons

Reviews

In Year 11, I was really struggling and I honestly lost my motivation and hope for the subject. Come the next year, a friend told me about Mark and his tutoring. Since the very start, he looked after me and gradually gave me the confidence I needed for the subject. He made personalised worksheets at the start of the year and then prepared me thoroughly for all my SACs. He had tips and advice that even shocked my teacher and to this day I am forever grateful how caring he was for me. He was always considerate of my schedule and looked after me like an older brother. He made sure I wasn’t stressed- which was particularly helpful this year. He gave study tips and life lessons that I’ll hold for life. The way Mark taught made everything so much easier to understand and I genuinely looked forward to every class each week. I’m extremely grateful for Mark and I don’t know what I would have done without him this year. Mark will always be one of the greatest teachers and tutors I’ve ever had.
