I think a tutor must put in just as much, if not more effort than the student. He should not only know the concept but also know how to frame it according to the needs of his student I can boil down a complex topic in simple terms. I know whether I should speed up or slow down my pace as per the understanding of my…

Making the material understandable, boosting the student's confidence, and fostering a positive learning atmosphere are the three most crucial things a tutor can do for a student. A tutor should point out areas where a student is not grasping anything, adjust explanations to meet their requirements, and promote independent thought. Depending on…

I believe one of the most important things in a tutor is a friendly mannerism, as this will make the student feel comfortable and likely more attentive during sessions. Of course a wide range of knowledge in the subject area is also very important to be able to tutor the students. I believe my skills to problem solve would make me a good tutor as…

Being friends with them. Before we study, I will try to make the student feel comfortable around me, so the working session will become enjoyable and fun. I think my strength is simple communication.

A tutor has to enable the student. Teaching them specific knowledge only goes so far. A tutor needs to give a student confidence that they can overcome their academic obstacles.

A tutor plays a very important role in the development of a student. The student is more informal and feels free to express his/her concerns, rather than at school. As it is a one to one interaction, a tutor has to focus completely and also expect the student to give 100%. Every student is different with their intelligence, maturity and attitude.…

Inside DerrimutTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Emma revised quadratic equations and functions, focusing on graph interpretation and problem-solving; Year 10 student Lucas tackled trigonometry by graphing sine and cosine functions, along with a review of transformations to strengthen his foundation; meanwhile, Year 3 student Zoe practiced multiplication facts and solved word problems involving money using real-life scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Mathematics, one student was "a bit lax with her homework," leading to missed practice on application questions and slower progress in trigonometry graphing.

In a senior English session, skipping questions when unsure meant some tasks were left incomplete and unattempted until prompted.

A Year 5 learner's written work was described as "hard to follow," with untidy layout making it difficult to check for errors—especially in multi-step problems.

Meanwhile, a primary student repeatedly avoided challenging multiplication questions, returning only to familiar material and requiring frequent reminders to persist when tasks became unfamiliar or effortful.

Recent Achievements

One Derrimut tutor noted a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to quietly guess at problems but now regularly asks for help when stuck, especially during complex homework—she completed nearly all tasks this week and initiated questions on her own.

A high schooler in Year 9 has started challenging herself by choosing harder questions for practice, getting them right on recent assignments after previously sticking only to basics.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who struggled to recite times tables can now confidently recall them aloud without prompting and tackled double-digit multiplication with less support than before.

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 Brimbank Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like Derrimut Primary School.
