Maths builds on four core operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

• Addition combines two or more numbers into a larger sum (5 + 3 = 8).
• Subtracting shows the gap between numbers, such as 15 minus 6 equals 9.
• Multiplication repeats addition quickly (4 × 3 = 12 means adding 4 three times).
• Division splits a number into equal parts or groups (12 ÷ 3 = 4).

Once you're confident with these basics, higher-level topics become straightforward.

Think of these four skills as your maths toolkit for all future learning.

A private maths lesson in East Melbourne generally runs about $30/h.

This rate varies depending on several factors:

• Whether it's foundation level (Year 1–6, Year 7–10, Year 11–12, uni)
• The tutor's qualifications (teaching degree, maths degree, expert training)
• The structure you choose (regular lessons, holiday packages)
• Whether it's virtual (Zoom, student's home, tutor's location)

Opting for remote sessions can also be more budget-friendly while still providing excellent support.

The core lessons teach arithmetic, fractional thinking, decimal notation, percentages, shapes, and patterns.

• Arithmetic means working with whole numbers through addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
• Fractions express quantities that sit between whole numbers.
• Decimal notation uses a point to separate wholes from parts, making sums easier.
• A percentage expresses a fraction with 100 as the base, simplifying comparisons.
• Learning about plane figures and their attributes builds geometric intuition.

Once you grasp these concepts, mathematics becomes accessible in broader contexts.

Each topic links with the others, creating a system of understanding.
