Maxson Stephen

English Tutor Burnley, VIC
Apart from helping them with the subject and clearing doubts i believe sometimes students need an extra nudge or motivation when the subject exhausts them. I am a good listener and can provide advice when required so that students can cop up with academics. I am very patient and resilient, which makes me susceptible to students pace and design the…

The concepts are usually easy to grasp, it just takes time and patience I love to grasp basic concepts and have a thorough understanding of such concepts that It makes you want to try difficult problems yourself! I feel learning should always be fun and you…

Under-confidence, in academics, can be the root cause of deteriorating mental health for students. As a tutor, I have the chance to boost the morale of students, and provide them a clear understanding of concepts that form the foundations of what they study/pursue for years to come. I think that is the most important thing a tutor can do. My…

I believe it is important for a tutor to take the time to understand a student’s specific needs, so that they can explain concepts clearly, at the appropriate level, and with the right level of enthusiasm and passion. Having had history of tutoring at a children’s home in Malaysia, I am empathetic, patient, and kind. I take the time to…

A tutor is someone that the student can feel comfortable, confident whilst being in a welcoming environment to ask and reach out about any questions regarding schooling subjects, and as well a support network to help build their pathway to reach their own successes. A tutor is there to be an extra pair of hands in explaining, discussing topics…

Beyond the student's skills, I believe self-confidence is also considerable. Studying can be a hard time for many students. If they are under too much stress, their performance will get worse. Commenting with encouraging words is the way tutors can build students' confidence as they will likely ask in class and understand the content clearly,…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is being a listener.

The infulcence tutors have on a child's life is the most important thing in my opinion. If tutors leave a positive impact, get invivoled with kids on a very personal level, I strongly believe it would help in getting the kids to be more interested in studying and doing their homeworks. This means making tutoring fun. I believe, I have good…

Bring an enjoyable study session so that the student can find the relatable subject exciting. The tutor should not be harsh rather be polite and gentle and should make the student understand a certain lesson as long as he/she cant understand.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is have the wisdom to be able to solve the problems which they cannot. Because if a tutor can't even do this, then everything else is pretty much irrelevant. Furthermore, having the ability to explain concepts is also very important as you can't be a great tutor if you can't explain things well…

Confidence! Making children feel safe and confident is the most important thing a tutor can do for students. When a child feels safe with you and able to be their true self, they will engage more with learning and exceed all expectations.

Inside BurnleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Sam worked through factorisation in algebra and solved chemistry mole calculation problems, using step-by-step examples to clarify each process.

For Year 10, Matt focused on structuring English essays by embedding quotes effectively and linking evidence to themes in "The Golden Age."

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Yasmine practiced plotting linear equations on a graph—finding coordinates and understanding why these equations form straight lines—by working through visual exercises together.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student in Mathematics often avoided writing out equations and working, relying on mental calculations—he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors. This made it hard to spot where his reasoning broke down.

In Year 11 English, a student repeatedly left homework incomplete and didn't use highlighters or mindmaps for essay planning, missing opportunities to structure arguments more clearly.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 struggled with consistently bringing required books to lessons, disrupting focus at the start of each session.

During a Physics assignment in Year 12, brief answers were submitted without detail, limiting depth and understanding.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Burnley noticed Matt now completes all his English homework ahead of time and uses planning tables and flash cards to organise ideas—previously he'd only write brief notes and needed prompting.

In Year 10 Biology, another student who once hesitated with project tasks started volunteering creative ways to build a plant cell diorama after some encouragement.

Meanwhile, Yasin (Year 12) is showing real independence: instead of waiting for solutions, he's begun applying physics formulas by himself during lessons and checking his own answers before asking for help.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as City of Boroondara Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like SEDA College (Victoria) - FFV Burnley.
