Tutor Essendon Fields, VIC
A tutor should create a supportive environment, explain concepts clearly, and adapt to the student’s learning style. It’s also important to build confidence, encourage questions, and help students develop independent learning skills rather than just giving answers. My strengths are clear communication, patience, and adaptability. I can…

In school, they teach students based on a certain method that suits a cohort or class of students, which caused some students to lag behind. I find that as a tutor, we need to identify which part is lagging behind, then tackle it together with the student. I am friendly so I could easily build a rapport with my students. I come in understanding…

Ensuring your student is feeling comfortable and confident to try new things is paramount. A student needs to understand that making mistakes is part of the learning process. They need to feel safe and comfortable to make mistakes. I also try to incorporate the interests of a student into learning where possible. E.g. turning a math problem…

I think the most significant thing that a tutor can do is to instill confidence in the student, make them able to learn, and independent learners. It's not providing them with the answers but making them see the 'why' about things. A good tutor listens, is attuned to the way of learning of the student, and gets them at ease asking questions and…

First and foremost helping the student to develop logic, as logic is everywhere, and making them understand each problem before solving it. The most important way would be to change the way of learning.

In my opinion, a tutor is not just for supporting a student to complete his assessments and helping them to solve questions. A tutor has an even more close connection with a student than his school teacher. Hence he has a better chance to identify what is the level of a particular student and what support he or she actually needs. Other…

Inside Essendon FieldsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Tyler worked on converting between percentages, fractions, and decimals using tables, then applied this understanding to worded problems.

In Year 7, Hayden explored persuasive writing techniques—like expert opinions and emotional appeals—and analysed how these are used in sample texts.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Damon focused on identifying and drawing different types of angles (right, acute, obtuse) and practiced finding area and perimeter for various 2D shapes using diagrams.

Recent Challenges

Sami needs to work on showing his working out for numeracy, rather than just the answer itself; this led to errors in calculation going unnoticed until late.

In Year 6 maths, Tyler's homework was incomplete due to illness but previously had been left unattempted—missing out on essential practice between sessions.

A Year 5 student tried sneaking a calculator into maths tasks; once it was removed, she showed better focus but struggled with signs when rushing.

The missed steps and incomplete revision have left gaps that resurface in later problem-solving.

Recent Achievements

One Essendon Fields tutor noticed Sami, a high school student, tackling a heavier workload than usual—he managed to complete 90% of his assigned work and showed initiative by asking to play a literacy game as a reward for finishing on time.

Meanwhile, Hayden (also in high school) demonstrated a real shift: after previously hesitating with unfamiliar vocabulary, he now reads new words aloud and creates strong real-life examples for writing strategies.

In primary, Charlotte began her session not knowing multiplication but finished confidently drawing out groups to solve questions like 5x5 and 3x7.

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 Moonee Valley Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like Strathmore North Primary School.
