English Tutor Whittlesea, VIC
Build a space where a student feels comfortable saying "I don't understand", and then receiving their issues with patience and understanding. It's important they feel confident enough to ask questions, and not shamed for having them. Explaining something multiple times and then trying a new way of explanation, exploring new ways of teaching, is a…

Its not only good that an english tutor should have a good command of his core area of specialty, he/she must also be able to pass the knowledge across in a way the students will comprehend.

I believe the most important things an english tutor can do for a student is to not only allow the student to prosper in the subject I'd be tutoring them in, but to also vision the student to find love and passion in the subject they are learning, as ultimately I believe passion in that subject is needed to prosper in it. My communication skills…

I think the most important thing is to instil them with confidence, as I have found that this is one of the biggest problems that slow down the understanding of something.

A tutor is someone who can help to support and strengthen students' self-efficacy one-on-one. This is extremely important as classroom teachers have to manage multiple students in a classroom and cannot provide the same undivided attention as an english tutor can. Tutors instil confidence in their students, assist them in unpacking and…

Two things: One: Listening and observing. Sometimes in tutoring you focus so much on the schoolwork and learning and bypass the learning experience. Being keen and observing the student\'s behaviour, mode of communication, body language etc, you can meet them at their level and once they feel understood, not looked down on and safe, then they are…

Inside WhittleseaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Vikram focused on assessing strengths and weaknesses in English, including reading comprehension and grammar.

In Year 8, Jessica worked through fractions and decimals, tackling mixed-number calculations and basic operations using practical examples.

For Year 10, Olivia revised factorising equations—both with common factors and the difference of two squares—and also practiced solving quadratic equations by different methods to prepare for her upcoming test.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Maths, forgetting to bring key class materials meant a student could not attempt set homework or reference worked examples—"she didn't have her workbook, so we couldn't check last week's problems."

For a Year 11 Methods student, skipping written working and relying on mental calculations led to hidden arithmetic errors; as one tutor observed, "he tried solving equations in his head but missed obvious mistakes."

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner often avoided feedback on creative writing drafts, making it hard to improve narrative flow and descriptive detail. Without addressing these habits, frustration grew each session.

Recent Achievements

One Whittlesea tutor noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to speak up now clearly explains when she's stuck and even shared her own method for tackling maths problems.

A high schooler in Year 11, after struggling with factorisation, could by the end of their session accurately spot patterns and use the correct methods without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who often needed lots of reminders stayed focused through an entire lesson on improper fractions and finished all her assigned questions independently.

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