I think its understanding, confidence in knowledge and patience. We as tutors have to realise that not all students will understand ever single concept that they are taught the first time they are taught it. Therefore being understanding of everyone's situations, capabilities and then being able to find a unique way of teaching a student that…

I believe it is motivating and teaching the student how to get the most out of their time studying in and outside of their tutoring session. Not only will this mean they learn more but Increasing ones ability to learn means the student will enjoy studying more (as if feels like they're making progress). I think there are 3 factors which would…

Responding to students need, both academic and personal. The tutor needs to assist the student in achieving their academic goals, whether it is to develop a passion for maths, or to prepare for an approaching exam, or to explore deeper into the contents outside of syllabus. By personal need, I mean that the tutor should adjust the style of…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to motivate them when they seem to run into a challenge. Students can quickly lose faith in themselves when they run into a hard problem and can have the tendency to quit. I think by being persistent and standing by their side at all times, the student feels like they are in trusted hands,…

Patience towards your students and being willing to take extra time to make them understand a topic. It is also important to make them feel at ease by bonding with them so that they don't fear you. It is also primordial to be capable to break down complex concepts to make it easier for the student to understand. My enthusiasm to make my students…

Similar to my strengths, I think a tutor needs to be flexible and patient with any and every student that they teach. A stubborn tutor that doesn't try to adapt to each student's personal needs or preferences won't be effective in their teaching, and a similar result follows for an impatient tutor. Additionally, any tutor should have a large bank…

I think the most important thing is to be supportive no matter what. Curiosity is in everyone and us as tutors should help the students to embrace their curiosity and take it further. Our job as tutors revolve around giving that helping hand, a small push, which brings the students to their full potential. I am a strong advocate for going beyond -…

It is vital for a tutor to provide the path to understanding the problems the students face by giving them the knowledge that they can build on. For their growth, it is important that students are not fed the answer. Rather, they should be shown the way and attempt themselves while always being supported as the student may be embarrassed or…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is not only to teach them what to think, but show them how they can independently develop their own original ideas - how they think. This is particularly true for humanities subjects such as English, where it may be challenging for a student to develop their own ideas and write essays…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is helping them to understand the work that they are doing in a school setting in a way that is specific to their learning style and helps them to feel comfortable replicating the same skills at school.

I believe it is essential for tutors to help students build confidence and self esteem in a subject. I think every student can do well if they have confidence and positive feelings towards a subject, regardless of what level they perform at initially. Another thing a tutor should do is to find the student’s preferred method of learning, and…

Inside Hawthorn EastTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 Jaidan reviewed all operations with fractions—including multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction—by working through exercises from his textbook.

Year 8 Isabella focused on graphing linear functions and calculating gradients, including a quick online discussion to clarify concepts while recovering from illness.

For Year 10 Ethan, the session addressed probability notation and diagrams along with set theory basics, using simple examples to build understanding.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, one student often rushed through working without writing steps, particularly in algebra and negative numbers; as a tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

In Year 11 methods, another found it challenging to keep track of brackets and correct notation when sketching graphs or working with power functions—missing these details led to confusion during revision.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student's long division answers became muddled because steps weren't clearly set out on paper. This meant extra time was spent searching for small mistakes instead of building new understanding.

Recent Achievements

One Hawthorn East tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who, after previously struggling with structuring extended answers in maths, now independently organises solutions and adapts quickly between topics like indices and algebraic equations.

A Year 10 student showed a real shift by reviewing errors from a recent test and then accurately applying Pythagoras' theorem during follow-up questions—something he hesitated with before.

In primary sessions, a younger learner who had difficulty telling time last month is now confidently drawing clock faces for set times and uses visual strategies to solve division problems without prompting.

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 Camberwell Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Camberwell Primary School.
