I believe a tutor should be a role model for the students and encourage him/her on their academic journey. I have found that many times students don't have proper guidance in regards to academics, hence they develop this stigma that they are not smart enough. As a tutor my role is to encourage the students to not only do better in school but also…

A tutor must be able to approach problems/concepts in different ways until they find the best way that the kid understands. Teachers have method that suit the whole class, whereas tutors must be able to look deeper into the specific areas a kid is struggling in and answer their questions that take longer and more practice. Tutors must be able to…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is quickly understand their strengths and weaknesses on a topic, and be able to use that to work on and hopefully eliminate any weaknesses.

Inside EaglemontTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Mitch focused on converting improper fractions to mixed numbers and representing fractions on a number line, working through practical examples for clarity.

Year 10 student Olivia reviewed scatterplots and Pearson's correlation coefficient in preparation for an upcoming general maths assessment, including hands-on calculator skills practice.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sarah explored chemical bonding by distinguishing between covalent, ionic, and hydrogen bonds and determining polarity using real compound examples.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4 maths, Elena often tried to solve division and multiplication questions in her head or all at once, avoiding written steps. As a tutor observed, "she submitted homework without showing working out," which made it difficult to track where errors crept in.

For Year 10 English, Mitch missed the short story deadline over the break; this meant lesson time was spent catching up rather than exploring new writing strategies.

During senior chemistry revision, one student forgot to bring prepared flashcards for different bond types, so class time shifted from review to last-minute note-making instead of deeper comparison work.

Recent Achievements

One Eaglemont tutor noticed a real shift with Mitch, a Year 10 student who used to hesitate when asked about literary techniques—last week, he quickly spotted metaphors and alliteration in a poem and even linked them to the mood of the text without prompting.

In chemistry, another high schooler managed to distinguish between polar and nonpolar molecules independently after previously mixing up the concepts, now able to explain each stage in her own words.

Meanwhile, Felix in Year 5 showed new initiative by tackling division problems he'd struggled with before, solving several tough examples on his own during class.

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 Ivanhoe Library & Cultural Hub—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of Mercy College.
