Besides from general knowledge of the subjects, understanding the strengths as well as weaknesses of the students is a must for personal tutors. We can develop the most effective way to teach if we are fully aware of these factors. Also, one of the most important things a tutor can do is to be patient and considerate with their students. This way…

I believe, more than anything else, that a tutoring space should feel judgement free for a student. A student should not feel hesitant to ask questions or to clarify a concept. In fact, I believe it to be a good sign if a student is able to outright say that my explanation is not what they need or understand. Fostering such a safe and trusting…

To provide them with skills and the confidence to apply their knowledge independently, essentially becoming the guide on the side, rather than having to lead them each step of the task/problem. - Can easily build a rapport with students, allowing them to be at ease in asking for help or further clarification of a topic - Can differentiate…

It is to be able to get students to, first of all, enjoy learning their subjects. Once they love what they are learning, it is crucial to gradually improve their skills to achieve the highest outcome possible for them. I am very persistent in helping students with their struggles and friendly in my interaction with…

Local Reviews

Our tutor has been very encouraging and supportive and has made every effort to give us constructive performance feedback at the end of each tutoring session. We have noticed a difference in our daughter's attitude and confidence towards maths since starting her tutoring.

Inside BelmontTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Liam focused on calculus, working through differentiation techniques like the chain rule and quotient rule, then applied these to find equations of tangents and solve area-under-curve problems using anti-differentiation.

In Year 10, Sarah practised solving simultaneous equations using both substitution and elimination methods before moving on to Pythagoras' theorem with step-by-step examples.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Ava revised index laws—covering rules for multiplying and dividing indices—and explored introductory logarithms by converting between index form and log form.

Recent Challenges

Regularly forgetting to bring her calculator and school books meant "I am unable to see where she is up to in class," as noted by her tutor.

In a senior maths session, over-reliance on mental calculations during Pythagoras' Theorem led to avoidable errors—her tutor encouraged use of the calculator provided.

For a Year 12 student preparing for calculus exams, not underlining key information caused small but critical mistakes in multi-step problems.

During essay planning in English (Year 10), hesitation with choosing literary devices slowed progress and left ideas less refined than intended.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Belmont noticed a Year 11 student who, after struggling with differentiation, now methodically uses her calculator to find gradients and eliminates incorrect multiple-choice answers without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student who used to hesitate on test prep has started compiling summary sheets independently from previous sessions on her own and felt prepared for her upcoming exam.

In a recent primary session, one younger student—who previously waited for guidance—now asks to try harder questions independently and completes them before asking for feedback.

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 Greater Geelong Mobile Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Oberon Primary School.
