Teaching isn't only about being able to explain something really well, but it is also being able to find something relatable so that the students have a relationship with what is being taught. As tutors, we bridge that relationship. Furthermore, tutors need to facilitate student’s curiosity and create an environment where their ideas and…

In my personal opinion besides teaching a student what is in the unit/study guide, a tutor should be taking responsibility in creating a fun learning environment and encouraging and motivating the students to be confident. This would help to enhance the students performance. The strength I have as an individual is I am able to create a comfortable…

I think a tutor should be a role-model or at least someone the student can rely on when they are having trouble in their education. A tutor should relieve the immense pressure some students receive from normal schooling, and should be able to provide their students with long-term learning skills. My strengths would include being strict only when…

I think that the most important thing for any tutor can do for their students is ensure that they are understanding the concepts. Moreover, I feel that it is really necessary for tutors to teach at students' pace of understanding instead of students learning at tutor's pace. Apart from this, tutors should create an environment where students dont…

An exemplary tutor or teacher is the one who does not just teach for the sake of doing the work but he should try to discover the problems and issues that his students are facing and try to be adaptive to new ways that may cater the queries of students. Also he should be friendly and welcoming to criticisms from his students, which is a driving…

Inside AltonaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Madison focused on similar triangles and practiced trigonometry and Pythagoras' Theorem with exam-style questions, while also exploring compound interest as part of a class validation task.

In Year 10, Liam worked on consolidating his skills in applying Pythagoras to worded problems and using trigonometric ratios to find unknown side lengths in triangles.

Meanwhile, another Year 10 student, Ella, covered bearings in trigonometry and revisited measurement concepts including volume and surface area calculations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student, when solving worded trigonometry problems, tended to avoid writing out steps and key words, making it harder to spot where misunderstandings occurred. This meant errors often went unnoticed until review time.

In Year 8 algebra, over-reliance on the calculator for identifying gradients in linear functions led to confusion about core concepts; as one tutor put it, "he could find the answer but struggled to explain how he got there."

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student often forgot to bring completed homework, leaving gaps in practice that slowed progress with times tables and division tasks.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Altona noticed that a Year 9 student, after initially hesitating to ask for help, began actively seeking clarification on trigonometric ratios and then independently solved for unknown side lengths using SIN, COS, and TAN.

Another high school student who used to skip steps with linear graphs is now confidently plotting points and explaining the meaning of rise over run without prompting—she even developed her own summary sheet for an upcoming SAC.

In primary, one student who would guess times tables has started working them out aloud step by step, moving from 10×3 backwards and discovering new patterns on her own.

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