I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student, is to show the easiest method to learn the content of the subject. A tutor can teach the way to decode the subject matter. Once, the tutor teach the method to learn and the student understand that method, a student should become independent to learn similar topics. I think a tutor…

Be understanding and patient. Each student is trying to reach a goal, and as a tutor, I have to help them achieve that goal without taking away their effort. I think I can connect well with students. In this way, they’re comfortable telling me if they have difficulty understanding something and I can think of ways that would connect lessons to…

Whilst ensuring the student learns or develops topics/skills is important, fostering an interest and curiosity in the subject is more important in my opinion. Through the support of teachers and students in my schooling I have grown a deep interest in maths, science and literature, which makes study and learning these subjects easy! I am patient,…

Ensuring your student is feeling comfortable and confident to try new things is paramount. A student needs to understand that making mistakes is part of the learning process. They need to feel safe and comfortable to make mistakes. I also try to incorporate the interests of a student into learning where possible. E.g. turning a math problem…

In school, they teach students based on a certain method that suits a cohort or class of students, which caused some students to lag behind. I find that as a tutor, we need to identify which part is lagging behind, then tackle it together with the student. I am friendly so I could easily build a rapport with my students. I come in understanding…

I believe that it is paramount for a tutor to understand that every student learns differently and therefore may need a different approach to studying to achieve their goals. A tutor should ask their student how they learn best and implement this feedback into their approach to tutoring. Similarly, it is important to understand that each student…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to provide them a pillar of support especially in times that they are confused and stressed.

I consider encouragement, feedback and trust to be an important part of tutoring. The teacher should support the learner to become more confident in their own academic capabilities, giving them timely and accurate feedback. Also, it is just as important to build positive relationships with your students so they can come to you with their problems…

A tutor can become the greatest asset to a student.

Not to mention a tutor can recommend pathways and answer any queries students may have of the future with university and employment. I…

Belle has benefited immensely from Amir's tuition and she has regained her confidence in both English and Maths.

Inside ArdeerTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Sarah practised using the distributive law and calculating mean, median, and mode from small data sets.

Year 9 student Emily worked through Pythagoras' theorem applications and tackled questions on compass bearings with basic trigonometry, making use of diagrams for clarity.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Josh focused on solving quadratic inequalities and explored how the discriminant affects the number of solutions to a quadratic equation.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often avoided completing maths homework, which made it hard to reinforce lesson content; as one tutor noted, "even if she is wrong, she should at least try."

In Year 11 physics, missing key gaps from previous years led to confusion when formulas needed to be applied—especially when independent reading was skipped.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner's tendency to erase and rewrite answers slowed progress in division tasks.

In English for Year 10, getting stuck on paragraph ideas during essay writing left the page blank far longer than necessary, sapping confidence for future attempts.

Recent Achievements

One Ardeer tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously struggled to use formulas in maths now independently applies them to solve exam questions, leading to a near-perfect score of 36 out of 37 on their last assessment.

A Year 8 student, who often hesitated to ask for help before, has started voicing questions mid-session and now tackles probability problems confidently after repeated explanations finally clicked.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner—once needing step-by-step support—recently completed her multiplication tables with only minimal prompting and finished all assigned problems without errors.

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 Brimbank Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mother of God School.
