Physics Tutor Upper Ferntree Gully, VIC
I think a physics tutor must help a student understand their work. A deep level understanding is good as it can give new perspectives to their work and to their endeavors. A surface level understanding is okay for replicating pre-set answers for a question, but a deeper understanding allows the person to view the question in a different way and to…

Physics Tutor Upper Ferntree Gully, VIC
The most important thing I believe a physics tutor can do for a students is to instill self-confidence in the student because a student that is confident will be more resilient to adversity and be more likely to solve problems by themselves. My strengths would be that I have gone through the Australian school system and have encountered similar…

Quick to answer question with confidence to lead the student to success. Apart from my strengths, that I do think are important qualities to have as a physics tutor, being reliable in terms of having an answer to a student's question is important. I am good at problem solving so will generally handle such a situation well, but experience…

Teaching math or English?! students can get that information from books, the internet, online courses and so many other ways. But things that a crafty and caring tutor would do is to support, understand, and talk, in one word, be there for the student. Being a friend and caring about every student, realising their talent and the ways they…

The most important things a physics tutor can do for a student are to foster a supportive and encouraging environment, tailor lessons to individual needs, and build the student's confidence by helping them understand and overcome challenges. My strengths as a tutor include patience, adaptability, and clear communication, which allow me to create…

Physics Tutor Upper Ferntree Gully, VIC
Provide motivation and help develop a passion (or at least an appreciation) for Mathematics. Success would be more likely if the student is enjoying the subject matter. Furthering this; to teach the student confidence in their abilities and eventually be more independent in thier learning/study. It is also important that a tutor understand the…

A tutor should be able to empathise with students and see the source of their struggles, and be able to find personalised ways to help them solve their problems. I can understand frustrating topics that I found difficult when I was in their shoes and can offer methods I used to deal with such…

The tutor could make the student more comfortable with the topic at hand and put him at ease, and make the student understand that going through difficulty when learning is perfectly normal. My strengths are patience, commitment, being as approachable and friendly as I can, and willingness to listen to doubts and issues from the people I'm…

Throughout my tertiary studies, I have found that the key to learning anything is finding the point of interest for a person and developing that area so that the subject as a whole becomes enjoyable. For any student, progress will naturally vary and giving them that support and encouragement to persevere and overcome hurdles in their learning is,…

Georgia is fantastic. She is lovely, explains things really well, is patient, very knowledgeable. She has already helped my daughter to feel a lot better about maths and helping her to get her confidence back. Brilliant!

Inside KallistaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Daniel focused on adding and subtracting fractions, practiced interpreting 24-hour time, and continued to consolidate times tables knowledge through active recall and written exercises.

In Year 10, Vien worked on refining essay writing by rewording sentences for clarity and began preparing content for an upcoming SAC assessment.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Isaac revised algebraic fractions in test preparation sessions and explored linear relations using practice problems from his recent classwork.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often avoided challenging maths problems, instead "prioritising known topics," which limited exposure to new skills and made harder questions in class feel daunting.

In VCE English, one student's essays were hard to follow because ideas weren't planned out, and their handwriting was described as "difficult to read," so teachers struggled to find key arguments.

A Year 10 student sometimes skipped homework or left revision incomplete—this meant valuable time was spent re-learning old material rather than progressing.

During timed tests, slow planning and indecision resulted in unfinished responses and mounting frustration.

Recent Achievements

One Kallista tutoring session saw a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to tackle extended essays now breaking down reading tasks independently and finishing almost every homework question on her own.

Another high schooler, after struggling with applying formulas, began identifying which ones to use without hints—completing his maths revision swiftly and fixing small mistakes himself.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who once second-guessed his times tables started answering flash card drills quickly and even volunteered to solve new multiplication problems aloud during the lesson.

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