Mr Matthew Foo
Melbourne - Glen Waverley
Maths and Accounting Tutor - MBS Scholar and Aspiring Teacher!
(6 student reviews)
**CURRENTLY PLANNING FOR 2021 - LIMITED SPACES AVAILABLE**
Hi!
My name is Matthew - I've graduated from Monash University with a Bachelor of Commerce (with a Monash Business School Scholarship), and completed VCE with a 99.35 ATAR. Over the past few years I've developed a passion for teaching, and I'll be beginning a Masters of Teaching at Melbourne Uni in 2021!
I am currently offering tutoring both in person and online for:
- VCE Accounting Units 1-4
- VCE Maths Methods Units 1-4
- Year 7-10 Maths
- University Accounting (1st year)
Learning isn't effective or enjoyable as a set of formulas... that's why my approach is to focus on *why* something works the way it does. All my sessions are individually tailored to suit your needs, helping you to unlock your understanding of subject areas and relate even more to the content.
My learning materials have been carefully crafted to set you up for success, inspired by various textbooks, study guides, 10+ years of past exam papers, competitions and even international curricula. Most importantly, they include questions dealing with those sneaky tricks that examiners love to add. Since the beginning of my VCE studies, I have kept a close eye on VCE assessments and trends, so you can be sure to have a competitive edge in yours.
Additionally, I am happy to provide support outside of tutoring hours when available.
Having graduated from high school not long ago, I can personally relate to classroom learning and help you develop your study habits, especially through crucial times throughout the year where focus is easily lost.
Lastly, expect my sessions to be engaging - I chose to begin a teaching degree for a reason! Tutoring over the past 4+ years has been very fulfilling, so you can be sure I'll be invested in your learning inside and outside our sessions!

"Matthew is honestly a really good tutor to work with and someone who has all the insight and knowledge in the subject. He not only is up to date with the newest study design, but also is always there to help and chat during times when you're doubting yourself. His unique teaching style has prepared me for the final exam in a more efficient and effective way - with greater depth knowledge of key concepts which were not clarified in class, but more importantly allowing me learn and develop better study habits as a prior high achiever in the subject and a future teacher. I honestly would recommend Matthew to anyone looking for extra help and needs a motivator who can push to your limits and help you achieve your goals in the subject (whether it is that high SS or greater confidence in the subject)."
