I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to foster a deep understanding of the subject matter and to build the student's confidence in their own abilities. It's crucial to create a learning environment where students feel safe to ask questions, make mistakes, and explore different solutions. Personalizing lessons to…

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…

Studying techniques, creating good habits and of course, feedback for improvements! These are the important aspects that a tutor should show their students.

A tutor needs to be a strong support for the student. Providing a comfortable environment where the student can discuss and barriers to learning that may be affecting them without the fear of judgement or doubt will enhance the learning experience by many fold.

I think the most important thing that a tutor can do is to be non-judgemental and to genuinely believe that each and every student will succeed. Although some children might be slower to grasp certain concepts, at the end of the day the most important thing is to encourage them every step of the way. I graduated high school with an ATAR of 94.3,…

It is never easy with studying - and different students will have their own speed of absorbing the lesson they are trying to learn. Several factors may come into play in those challenges whether it's their cognition ability, skills of their instructor, or the status of the environment where they are trying to learn.

Inside AttwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Alex focused on probability and fractions from Chapter 7, using practical examples to reinforce key fraction skills.

In Year 9, Maya worked through angle relationships and properties of geometrical figures, including a review of angles and practice with geometric diagrams.

For Year 11, Adam tackled language analysis by revising persuasive techniques, annotating articles, and practicing how to write effective analytical responses based on recent feedback.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student arrived at a lesson without their book, making it impossible to reference key texts or annotate effectively ("would have been beneficial if his books were brought to the lesson").

In Year 10, one student had not completed assigned homework before the next session, which slowed progress in mastering persuasive techniques.

A Year 8 learner was often distracted by unrelated topics and missed opportunities to direct their learning.

A primary school student continued relying on finger counting for multiplication instead of practicing recall—this delayed fluency during more complex fraction tasks and led to slower problem-solving in class.

Recent Achievements

An Attwood tutor noticed Marcus, a Year 8 student, shift from guessing to explaining his reasoning out loud while solving coordinate geometry problems—he now confidently maps points and talks through each step.

In Year 11 English, one student arrived having already annotated The Longest Memory and was able to link quotes across texts without prompting, showing new independence with comparative analysis.

Another high schooler took feedback on her oral presentation draft, pinpointed exactly where she needed to clarify ideas, and came back the next lesson with a revised outline ready for discussion.

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 Gladstone Park Community Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Westmeadows Primary School.
