At a foundational level, it's most important to ensure the student feels confident with the material they're learning. As a first step, it's important for a tutor to assist in honing in and helping the student practice so that their skill level matches the basic requirements of the subject. Then the next most important thing a tutor can do for a…

I think the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to guide, support, and inspire them. It’s not just about helping them memorise content or score higher marks — it’s about helping them build confidence, curiosity, and the right mindset towards learning. A good tutor should create a space where students feel comfortable…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is make an overall postive impact.

Helping them change their attitude towards learning is the kind of positive change that lasts beyond the classroom. I am a really positive and…

The best thing any Tutor can do is make a student like a particular subject which she/he used to previously dislike. This means that the Tutor has made a boring subject interesting to the students. And in this way, the student will remember what he/she learns for a lifetime and not just for the purpose of examinations. I am a very patient Tutor,…

I find that addressing the finer parts that students find more challenging is essential for a tutor.

Inside WestmeadowsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Adam explored probability and fractions from Chapter 7, working through practical problems to strengthen understanding.

Year 10 student Chloe revised completing the square and practiced sketching quadratic graphs, focusing on how changes in equations affect their shapes.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Emily tackled language analysis by annotating an article for persuasive techniques and then practiced writing her own analysis using those features.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 English, a student left revision too late and struggled to recall key quotes for No Sugar, making it difficult to build essay paragraphs ("did not know key aspects of the texts").

In another senior class, homework was incomplete—time meant for learning persuasive techniques was lost.

A Year 9 student's essay work stalled when their book was left at school; this also limited reading over the week.

In primary maths, one student continued to rely on counting fingers instead of recalling multiplication facts quickly, slowing progress in division tasks. Moments like these lead to gaps that are hard to bridge mid-task.

Recent Achievements

One Westmeadows tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student who, after previously hesitating to ask for help, started actively seeking clarification on tricky vocabulary during lessons and pinpointed exactly which exam areas needed work.

Another high schooler had struggled to link quotes between novels, but this week managed to connect key passages across two texts and explain how they fit major themes—something she'd never attempted before.

Meanwhile, a younger student grew visibly more relaxed as the session went on, ending by volunteering answers aloud after starting out quiet and reserved.

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 Hume Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like Westmeadows Primary School.
