As a tutor the most important thing is encouragement. we understand how different one student is from each other, while it may often feel like 1 student out of many, for that student it is everything. So being encouraging, patient and understanding of them is very important for a student during times of struggle. assure them that mistakes are part…

I believe the primary goal of any tutor should be to help a student love what it is they are learning. Not necessarily the academic process itself, but the subject matter. From love and curiosity comes eagerness to learn and to apply oneself, and I believe all students deserve to love what they are learning. I believe I am very compassionate, and…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is teaching content in a way that interests the student as engagement is a key factor when teaching. If something isn't engaging students will be uninterested leading to other problems My main strength is that I'm able to offer insights to certain problems I had come across as a student, by…

The tutor should always understand what the students need. Weaknesses, strengths and learning style need to be identified so that the tutor can best tailor their learning to play to their strengths and work on their weaknesses. A good tutor should also build confidence in a student by encouraging and motivating them to be both excited about…

The most important role of a tutor is to help students develop confidence and independent learning skills.

Help him or her stay motivated. If a student is motivated, it is highly likely they will be able to finish their given task without much effort. However, if a tutor fails to keep his or her student motivated enough, it would be pretty tough for that student to keep on going. I don’t give up on a student just because he or she is not able to…

Under-confidence, in academics, can be the root cause of deteriorating mental health for students. As a tutor, I have the chance to boost the morale of students, and provide them a clear understanding of concepts that form the foundations of what they study/pursue for years to come. I think that is the most important thing a tutor can do. My…

A tutor gives their students many things, including knowledge, understanding, and growth in a subject, but the most important thing is the self-confidence to put themselves out there.

Guide, but not tell.

Inside BurnleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Sam worked through factorisation in algebra and solved chemistry mole calculation problems, using step-by-step examples to clarify each process.

For Year 10, Matt focused on structuring English essays by embedding quotes effectively and linking evidence to themes in "The Golden Age."

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Yasmine practiced plotting linear equations on a graph—finding coordinates and understanding why these equations form straight lines—by working through visual exercises together.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student in Mathematics often avoided writing out equations and working, relying on mental calculations—he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors. This made it hard to spot where his reasoning broke down.

In Year 11 English, a student repeatedly left homework incomplete and didn't use highlighters or mindmaps for essay planning, missing opportunities to structure arguments more clearly.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 struggled with consistently bringing required books to lessons, disrupting focus at the start of each session.

During a Physics assignment in Year 12, brief answers were submitted without detail, limiting depth and understanding.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Burnley noticed Matt now completes all his English homework ahead of time and uses planning tables and flash cards to organise ideas—previously he'd only write brief notes and needed prompting.

In Year 10 Biology, another student who once hesitated with project tasks started volunteering creative ways to build a plant cell diorama after some encouragement.

Meanwhile, Yasin (Year 12) is showing real independence: instead of waiting for solutions, he's begun applying physics formulas by himself during lessons and checking his own answers before asking for help.

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 City of Boroondara Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like SEDA College (Victoria) - FFV Burnley.
