Inspire students to take charge of their academic future and career as well as strive to be the best version of themselves.

Listening and…

What I consider to be the most important things a tutor can do for a student is understanding the pace the student requires and not focusing on how much a student can complete in a set time. Another one is being available for the student when possible as students may not think of questions or ideas when they are with me. My strengths as a tutor is…

The things I consider most important for tutors are clarity, confidence, and independence. Clear explanations can turn topics that a student might shy away from into smaller ideas that they can relate to and therefore understand. Confidence grows when you celebrate small wins and frame mistakes as part of the learning process. Afterwards,…

It is highly important to provide the student with a support network in which the student feels confident to ask any questions and feels comfortable. I am able to simplify concepts to the point where a student can easily grasp them. I am also quite patient. If a student doesn't initially understand a concept, I am able to not only explain again…

I find that addressing the finer parts that students find more challenging is essential for a tutor. While students may have already covered the concepts in class, the learning process is often not tailored to their individual needs. A tutors role is to adopt a more personalised approach, taking the time to understand each student’s unique level…

I believe one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to use personalised strategies that suit the student's learning style so that they can benefit from their one-on-one lessons in a way that they don't have the opportunity to in the classroom. I also believe it is important for a tutor to understand both the strengths and…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to help the student recognise their own potential. Alongside teaching them, it is just as important to ensure they realise they are capable of figuring things out on their own too (of course with some support!). This enables them to try their best and set the highest goals they can which is what I would…

No doubt a teacher can have a long lasting impact on his students . By Spending long hours with your students, the one can easily become their role model, or perhaps their first platonic love.

Inside SomertonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Sohaila revisited the split strategy for three-digit by two-digit multiplication, followed by targeted division problems to reinforce prior learning.

Year 10 student Keshan focused on rearranging equations in coordinate geometry, solving for gradient and y-intercept, and practiced expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions using step-by-step examples.

For Year 6, Zoyi worked through an English assessment that included comprehension, spelling, grammar, and paragraph writing skills to address areas of difficulty.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 English, a student often struggled to connect evidence to broader themes in text responses; as one tutor observed, "she tended to describe events rather than analyse their impact." This limited the depth of her essays.

In Year 7 mathematics, another student needed reminders to complete assigned homework and showed difficulty managing time during multi-step algebra tasks—unfinished questions meant missed feedback opportunities.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner's written work was hard to follow due to inconsistent punctuation and paragraphing, making it challenging for her to proofread effectively. By lesson's end, fatigue sometimes led to skipped steps or incomplete practice.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Somerton noticed one Year 10 student, who previously hesitated to seek clarification, now independently identifies her weak spots in English essays and actively asks for targeted feedback—something she never did before.

In Year 7 maths, a student who once guessed at multiplication strategies is now confidently applying the split strategy to tackle both two-digit by two-digit and three-digit by two-digit problems without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner recently began solving worded maths questions on her own after initially struggling to decode what each question was really asking, finishing an entire worksheet with just one prompt.

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