I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is improve the confidence of a student so that they feel competent and ready, which is a knock on effect from the clarity gained during tutoring sessions. Another important thing a tutor can do for a student is help them gain good study habits with can take them all throughut their education, and…

Modern History Tutor Balwyn, VIC
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to really help them get the best out of themselves. I think a really good teacher or tutor will always leave their students with a sense that they should always be trying to get the most out of themselves, whatever level that is, and not cheat themselves by being lazy. I think my…

To listen and make the learning experience enjoyable. The best way to learn is to do it in a way that does not stress you out, make it easy to understand. I think my strengths would be my kindness and approachability as well as a real drive to teach. My weakness I would say would probably be haveing a hard time giving negative…

Modern History Tutor Thornbury, VIC
Show patience and be able to explain things in alternative ways. When a student is struggling to understand something, they can feel pressured or get frustrated or can feel depleted in the fact that they cannot understand a concept. So in my opinion, it is crucial to show patience and try to have the student understand by slowly going through…

Yes I have spoken with Chirag this afternoon. He seems really lovely, confident, competent and friendly and I think someone like this is going to be ideal for our Pops.

Inside MontmorencyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Alex focused on linear equations and applied these to worded problems, working through practical examples step-by-step.

For Year 10, Jessica explored the Sine and Cosine Rule by solving triangles in context and revisited key trigonometry concepts using diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ethan tackled logarithmic and exponential equations as well as related geometry questions, emphasizing both algebraic manipulation and interpreting solutions graphically.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled with organizing written work during algebra problems, leading to confusion when isolating variables—he skipped steps in rearranging, which hid sign errors.

In Year 5, a learner avoided showing working in long division due to uncertainty and often left answers incomplete.

For a Year 11 student tackling trigonometry, anxiety about using the correct formula sometimes meant he stuck rigidly to Sine/Cosine rule even when a simpler path was available, causing lost time.

Meanwhile, in Year 10, over-reliance on answer choices rather than interpreting worded questions directly made percentage tasks slower and less accurate.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Montmorency recently noticed some real shifts in students' approaches. In Year 10 maths, Hayden used to get stuck when isolating variables, but after working through the steps together he can now break down equations independently and even spots shortcuts on his own.

A senior student who'd previously rushed through questions is now re-reading each one and using alternative answers as clues—a big change from guessing blindly.

Meanwhile, a primary student has started tackling multiplication by "breaking" numbers apart for easier calculations, showing far more patience than before. Last session, she finished all her sums without skipping a single step.

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