Aarav
Tutor Bentleigh, VIC
Firstly be a mentor. Depending on the age of the student, it is likely you've been in their shoes. You owe it to the student and their family to help them feel academically confident, and reassure them for their future studies. No one topic in school is the most important, but your role as a tutor is to foster a sense of self-belief in your…

Tutor Bentleigh, VIC
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to like a teacher equip students with the ability and tools to approach the problem. Rather than rote learning, giving students the tools allows them to approach problems that they may not have seen as well as that which they had prepared for. Shifting teaching and explanatory methods to …

I believe in having a proper conversation everyday with the child. So that, we can understand the gaps in their understanding and improve them in the areas that they are lagging behind.

Siddharth
Tutor Bentleigh, VIC
Giving your student confidence and guidance is key. When teaching a concept, the biggest part in my mind is not only being able to establish an understanding for the concept to the student, but for the student to feel confident in their own knowledge. That initial growth in confidence in a subject is usually what fuels later motivation and…

Be patient and listen. When a student is struggling or not fully grasping a topic, the last thing they need is a tutor who is going to get angry or annoyed if they haven't understood what they are trying to teach. I believe being patient and readjusting your approach is so much more important than just trying to force upon exam questions and…

Inside BentleighTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 5 student Anna practised converting between fractions and decimals as well as solving measurement problems involving area.
For Year 8, Tom focused on graphing linear relations and working through equations and inequalities using real-life examples.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Olivia revised trigonometric relationships by connecting sine, cosine, and tangent values with angles, alongside applying the Pythagoras' theorem to a variety of questions.
Recent Challenges
A Year 8 student often left out written working in algebra, as noted: "need practise showing 'working' when solving any mathematical problems," which led to hidden errors and slower correction.
In Year 10 trigonometry, confusion between values and angles persisted—"easy to get distracted most of the time"—especially with radians.
A younger student repeatedly forgot the multiplication tables during fraction work, making even basic calculations slow.
For several sessions, a Year 7 did not bring required materials like textbooks or exercise books; this meant missed practice opportunities and incomplete follow-up on geometry concepts discussed in lessons.
Recent Achievements
One Bentleigh tutor recently noticed a Year 9 student who'd always hesitated to speak up when stuck with algebra now confidently asks clarifying questions before attempting problems—something she never did last term.
In another session, a Year 11 student who previously made frequent errors graphing trigonometric equations managed to solve and graph each type correctly on her own, only double-checking answers at the end.
Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who often mixed up fractions and decimals is now reliably converting percentages to fractions without prompting and can explain each step aloud as he works.
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 Bentleigh Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Paul's School.
