Firstly, a tutor has to be able to understand the student's needs and then personalise a learning plan/ style that works for the student - one size does not fit all! Secondly, the tutor needs to guide the student not get them to parrot generic question answers. It's about building the students confidence up, through positive encouragement, and…

I think that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to celebrate their successes, big or small. It can be difficult for some students to maintain a love for learning, or even just develop a motivation to study more, so I believe that a tutor is a pillar of support for the student throughout their learning. A tutor can give that…

The most important thing a tutor - or any teacher - can do is spark a genuine desire to learn, rather than making learning feel like a requirement. When students are encouraged to personally connect with a subject, its quirks and intricacies, they stop seeing learning as a chore and start seeing it as something they truly enjoy. I'm really good at…

Beyond simply helping a student improve their grades, I believe a tutor should aim to further engage their students in their learning and to actively enjoy school.

An important thing would be to instil a sense of confidence in a student about a particular subject, theory, or whatever it is that they are struggling with. Without confidence, even if a student may know the content or understand the theory, it can be difficult to do well in that subject. This is achieved by repeating a concept or practising it a…

Cassandra has told me that her new tutor DJ has an excellent teaching style. He shows her every step of a maths problem and encourages questions. DJ also goes to the effort of making up personalised worksheets for her based on her maths book. Thank you, DJ, the effort is appreciated.

Inside South KingsvilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Ayaan worked through linear graphs by finding equations and intercepts, as well as applying Pythagoras' theorem to calculate triangle sides.

In Year 10, Lily focused on quadratic techniques such as completing the square and practiced with past exam questions to solidify her understanding.

For Year 11, Marcus tackled differentiation, including applications to maximum and minimum problems, and reviewed how to solve cubic equations using the factor theorem.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student repeatedly left homework incomplete, particularly in algebra practice; as one tutor noted, "she needs to finish practice sample test questions."

In Year 11 Maths Methods, revision often focused on easier problems, with skipped harder textbook exercises—this limited readiness for exam-style questions.

A Year 7 learner avoided attempting unfamiliar trigonometry tasks, preferring to revisit solved examples instead of tackling new ones.

When a senior student forgot to bring previous test papers for review, valuable feedback opportunities were lost. This led to last-minute cramming rather than steady progress and undermined confidence before assessments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in South Kingsville recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to avoid asking questions now pausing the lesson to explain where she got stuck on last week's homework, then tackling logarithm problems more independently.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student who previously struggled with graphing trig functions worked through practice tests and confidently approached tougher tangent graphs without prompting.

In Year 4, one student who was hesitant to participate at first is now actively answering questions during lessons and learning from mistakes, showing a new willingness to engage each session.

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 Yarraville Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Margaret Mary's School.
