There are a lot of things that can be considered important while tutoring a student. The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to find their strengths and abilities in the subjects they are struggling with. This will help them in improving academically and increase their interpersonal skills as this will encourage them in asking…

Science Tutor Yarraville, VIC
As briefly mentioned in the question above, the most important things tutor can do for a student is to not make the experience another class that "drags on". Interacting with the student on a level where he/she can enjoy or be intrigued by the work is essential. To do this, you cannot let the theories from a textbook stay as theories.…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is build their confidence and independence as a learner. Rather that just providing answers, I focus on helping students understand how to approach problems, think logically, and trust their own ability to improve. Explaining things clearly and simply Adapting to the students…

The best thing a tutor can do is to listen carefully and empathise with their students. Learning can be very difficult and it is very helpful, for a tutor, to realise that each individual has their own learning style, motivation, and attitudes towards any subject. Most importantly learner's wellbeing should be an important factor when tutoring. I…

I think the three most important things a tutor can do are understanding the student’s specific learning needs, patiently supporting students as they get to grips with a process or concept and knowing the subject content and study design. These priorities ensure that the content of tutoring sessions is relevant, delivered in a sensitive timely…

Being willing to help, but also acknowledge the rare instances where a tutor may be unable to help to a confident level. I believe it is better to acknowledge if you do not know something rather than pretend you do and risk teaching something that is incorrect. When this problem is encountered, however, it is up to the tutor to rectify this by…

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.
