Highly recommend Chris!! In my mid-40s and deciding to embark on a University course that required me to complete maths and sit an ACER test - happy to report that I passed both with flying colours. Chris instilled the confidence I needed and the tools I was sorely lacking.
My girls (years 9 & 12) had only ever worked with tutors in-person. This was our preference, until we met Chris. The setup that he uses for tutoring online is organized and effective. My girls are achieving grades we hadn’t previously anticipated. He’s made a huge difference & we hope to continue with his services next year. Thanks Chris!
Chris has been the best math tutor I've ever had. As an adult attempting to get back into learning mathematics, I was extremely nervous. However, Chris made me feel comfortable enough to make mistakes and learn from them. Without a tutor like Chris, I'm not sure how far I would've gotten. I strongly recommend booking a session with Chris!!
My 9 year old initially didn’t enjoy attending the computer-based learning session at a tuition centre, but everything changed when he started math lessons with Chris. Chris has not only improved my son’s math skills but also transformed his attitude towards the subject. Now math is his favourite subject at school, and he’s more confident in his abilities. He’s even won awards in math, which has boosted his confidence. If you’re looking for a math tutor who can make a real difference, Chris is the one to choose.

Chris is a fantastic tutor. He has a great ability to engage the student making them want to learn. He took my son from 45% scores to 80% +. I highly recommend Chris!
Chris is an excellent fun Maths tutor who makes the hour not feel like school while building maths skills and confidence. Happy to be on the learning journey with Chris at the helm.
Great communication from the very start. My daughter was very at ease with Chris from the first lesson. She was really happy with all of the tips and personalized information given to help her specific needs.
My year 8 child has been having 2 half hour online sessions a week with Chris since the beginning of this year. Her Mathematics grades have gone from D's and C's to her very first B 👏👏. She is so proud of herself, I love seeing her feel this way about herself. Chris's classes are positive, fun, engaging and have definitely made a difference in my child's grades and confidence.
Our daughters were both struggling with their math lessons and were not receiving the attention in the classroom they needed to succeed. We decided that a tutor would be the best solution for our daughters and after doing a lot of research we decided that Leg up was the best fit for us. Our experience over the last term has been outstanding with both our daughters now feeling more confident and happy with their math learning thanks to leg up math tutoring. We can highly recommend Chris and his professional and caring approach to ensure our daughters achieved the success that was missing in the classroom. Thank you Chris
Chris has been a massive help for our son who is a senior in high school. He was struggling with maths but since seeing Chris once a week for most of this year he has gone from not understanding the work to easily passing his exams and assignments. The online tutoring sessions Chris offers makes it so convenient to fit in to our schedule. I would highly recommend Chris!
Chris got my daughter from a solid D to an A in months! We could not be happier with his dedication, knowledge and proactiveness in getting kids engaged and understanding Math! This is now my daughter's favourite subject.
With Chris’s tailored teaching approach to her pace and style in just one term she has made significant improvement with her Math grade already (C to A). She has found Chris’s zoom sessions very engaging and has never once complained that tutoring was on.

Word of mouth is the best form of advertising and can also be very rewarding for YOU! If you introduce a new student to Leg Up Math Tutoring and they pay for a full term (10 sessions), your child will receive 2 FREE sessions & your friend’s child will also receive 2 FREE sessions.
From $119/hr + GST. I have over 5000 hours of classroom experience as a high school math teacher. Being a teacher has given me the skills to explain concepts in different ways. Who would you trust to chauffeur you around, a learner driver or someone with years of experience? (FYI – I also have over 30 years of driving experience).
I only tutor online. I’ve tutored face to face before but believe online has many benefits. Face to face can be a little invasive of children’s personal space, if I’m trying to look over their shoulder or sit close to them to see them working out. The whiteboard I use allows me to see them working in real time, so it’s very efficient as I can immediately advise the student if they have made an error. Plus, online is very flexible if a student needs to reschedule due to sickness or other commitment.
I have a paid subscription to the whiteboard, which is included to the student as part of my hourly rate. It’s very easy to use and colourful, making it perfect for students. Plus, you can also easily draw shapes when drawing graphs etc. As stated above, it’s very efficient as it allows me to see the student working in real time.
Zoom, which I also have a paid subscription for. Once again, it’s included to the student as part of my hourly rate. Zoom is also easy to use, and it allows the student to share their screen with me if they want to do their homework using an online program such as Mathspace or Mathletics.
No, I just need to send it once. I advise the student to save that email somewhere safe so that they can click on the link before each session. If they lose the email, I can easily send them a new one.
I have a Bachelor of Applied Science (Mathematics), Graduate Diploma in Teaching and almost 6 years experience as a (predominantly) high school math teacher in Queensland.
