Chemistry Tutor Melton West, VIC
As I recently graduated I can understand the pressure that is being faced every day so I would make sure that the student studies a topic with a cool mind rather than studying in a panic mood. I would like them to study everything in a smart way rather studying everything in a hard way. I also believe while studying the student should know what is…

Building confidence in a student is the most important thing for a chemistry tutor. In another way, a student can realise his or her capacity to solve a problem and be confident in it despite failing several times. Working with kids helps me to understand and communicate effectively throughout a lesson, which are key elements in tutoring.…

I consider the most important thing as a chemistry tutor is to teach your students to ask more questions, more often and trying to answer those questions themselves as if they are the teacher because by doing this they actually get used to thinking about various problems in a better way and come up with well thought questions and a better…

The most important thing a chemistry tutor can do for a student is provide a space for them to feel confident and able in what they can achieve.

The main responsibility of a chemistry tutor is to fill gaps in a students knowledge as opposed to picking on whats wrong. I believe that constructive feedback is the core of tutoring. However, it is also important to facilitate independent thinking in students. A combination of direct help and independent learning will give them the confidence…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to build their confidence and help them become independent learners. It’s not just about helping with homework or test prep — it’s about teaching them how to think, ask questions, and solve problems on their own.

Inside HarknessTutoring Sessions

Content Covered
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
