helping students realize that all their effort is going to pay off and there is a reason behind studying all these subjects and no one would benefit from working hard more than themselves.

Tutor Kennington, VIC
The most important thing for a tutor is not just about telling the student the right answers but about finding different ways of solving problems. Tutors need to help students develop their understanding of mathematical concepts' properties and shift from concrete materials to abstract concepts. My strengths are knowing the content and knowing my…

Not only is it important to explain concepts well to students, it is also important to create a foundation for students to bounce back on, so that they can understand how to have enhanced learning for the long term. A good tutor should be inspiring so that students will be motivated to be life-long learners. I believe my experience with teaching…

Tutor Bendigo, VIC
The ability to understand a student and their learning style is something I highly value in a tutor. In school classes where they are often one of many, they may find that the teaching style may not work for them and that they cannot achieve their goals. In a tutoring scenario, we are able to cater to them more specifically, to be intuitive about…

I believe being patient and considerate of each student is the most important thing for a tutor to do because this will make the learning space better for the student. If the student feels like their tutor is genuinely caring for their education then they will give their best. I can gauge when a student is or isn't understanding a concept, and can…

Tutor Flora Hill, VIC
Mostly, I think it's important to be consistent in class attendance to make max use out of the limited time period. I also think that always believing in the student makes a huge difference, especially in maths. They need to know that someone sees their capability apart from them. Adding patience to this and allowing them a safe space to make…

Tutor Bendigo, VIC
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for students is to give them the confidence to believe in their abilities in order for them to view themselves as capable enough to learn new things, work hard and perform their best. This starts with the tutor identifying the student's area of need and working hard alongside them to improve it.…

A tutor must always fully and wholly understand his content and always develop innovative ways to communicate the information to their students; meaning - don't copy the textbook on a power point, instead develop your own materials My recent conclusion of year 12 gives me fresh knowledge on the current study designs, the appropriate material…

Aside from teaching academics, it is important that the tutor understands the student and gives advice on how to be a better student such as being motivated, confident, and of course to see the benefits of the education that they have access to. My strengths as a tutor would be my patience and motivation. I am happy when my students enjoy what…

We were really pleased with Mary. The girls really felt at ease immediately.

Inside StrathdaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Ella focused on solving linear equations in maths and developed her proofreading and introduction writing skills in English.

For Year 7, Zane worked through Pythagoras' Theorem and linear equations using practice problems, while also learning how to write research notes in his own words for English.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Alex practised essay writing based on the novel Wonder and tackled trigonometry concepts including bearings and solving trig problems.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 Maths, he often forgot to bring his previous test for review, which meant missed chances to address key mistakes before moving forward.

A Year 11 student grew flustered with new algebra concepts and struggled to articulate problem-solving steps clearly—leading to repeated confusion in lessons.

In Year 5 English, homework tasks were frequently incomplete or rushed after busy weeks, so spelling words weren't learned fully.

One Year 7 learner avoided writing out workings in fractions problems; as a tutor observed, skipping the process made it harder to spot where sign errors crept in.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Strathdale recently noticed some great steps forward across different ages.

One Year 11 student, who previously hesitated to ask for help, is now actively recognising gaps in her knowledge and openly discusses tricky questions during sessions.

In Year 10 maths, a student who struggled with worded problems has started using creative strategies and now works through multi-step questions without needing hints.

Among younger learners, a Year 5 student—who used to rush homework—proudly organised her work into a new folder and double-checked answers before finishing for the first time.

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 Bendigo Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kennington Primary School-Bendigo Deaf Facility.
