Answer questions and help plan out one's study schedule. Having a good schedule helps build discipline and motivates one to achieve their goals if its broken down into smaller tasks.

1. Make sure they have the encouragement they need. 2. The most important thing is to explain to them why they should take these studies and how it will help them in their future endeavors. 3. Treat students with respect and teach them how to treat others with respect. During my years as a student, I found it difficult to learn stuff very…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, foster a love for learning, and equip them with the tools to succeed independently. A good tutor not only helps a student understand the subject matter but also encourages them to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. For instance, while…

I believe the most important thing is to allow the student to share the same passion and interest for the subject, since that is the biggest factor for inciting motivation within the student to keep going. I am very patient, so if a student isn't fully understanding a topic even after multiple explanations, I wouldn't get frustrated, but instead…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is not to assess them purely based on their ability to memorize and reciprocate information, or to try to teach them in the same way as every other student, but to adjust and be understanding that every student has a different learning capacity, and adapt to each student to ensure they get the…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to fully understand the needs and wants of a student within their specific subject and in life. By understanding this, tutors can create an environment that will best suit the student, allowing enhanced performance and enjoyment within their subjects. This can be done by simply engaging in normal…

Help them actually understand the material, not just get the right answer that one time. Keep their confidence up so they don't start believing they're just bad at the subject. And honestly, work myself out of a job a little, teach them habits they can use on their own instead of making them rely on you. I'm patient, I'll explain something three…

A tutor can make studies enjoyable for the student by becoming his/her friend who can not only guide him/her and help him with his studies but can also help him/her becoming a better person.

Build real understanding rather than memorisation, and build the student's confidence alongside it. My personal measure of whether a student has actually learned something is whether they could turn around and explain it to someone else. I think a good tutor also needs to be patient and encouraging, especially when a student is struggling, because…

I believe an essential aspect to include in tutoring is helping students to develop metacognitive and study skills.

When I tutor students, I highly value teaching the specific study skills that will be most effective for them, imparting not merely content…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is listen. Is there a way the student feels they learn better? Perhaps through pictures instead of words? Is the student not focussed and extremely tired? Would it be more productive to learn outside in the backyard or reschedule for another day? Students are young, but they are young adults.…

I believe a teacher can either make or break a student and I've seen both scenarios happen around me.

I think there are two main things a tutor can do for a student; maintain high grades and garner a positive attitude. It is imperative as a tutor's job to help the student maintain or achieve high grades in the particular area of study. However, high academic standards are not simply enough. It is also important for a tutor to build up an…

A tutor shouldn't be the individual who would only be associated with studies and stuff.

Moreover, a tutor should be a guiding light to the student. - Communication - Experience -…

Inside Burwood EastTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Alex worked on two-digit by two-digit multiplication and progressed to division with remainders, often tackling worded problems for extra practice.

In Year 11, Keshara revised domain and range questions from the Methods syllabus and completed exam-style problems on transformations, including hyperbolas and parabolas.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Arjun focused on chemical analysis techniques such as IR and NMR spectrometry, alongside interpreting mass spectrometry data through targeted textbook exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Maths Methods, a student "forgot to bring his SAC for review," missing a chance to address feedback before the next assessment.

In Year 8 English, homework was incomplete and spelling lists left at home, which meant less progress on writing structure and vocabulary.

A Year 12 Chemistry student's practical report was difficult to follow due to disorganised notes and uncollated results, slowing down her analysis.

Meanwhile, in Year 3–4 Maths, several students continued relying on finger counting instead of memorising times tables—"he still used hands for addition," one tutor noted—which made mental calculations slow during problem-solving.

Recent Achievements

A Burwood East tutoring session saw a Year 3 student, previously hesitant with larger multiplication problems, now requesting to tackle three-digit by two-digit questions and confidently working through each step without relying on memorisation alone.

In Year 11, one student who used to wait for explanations has started proactively asking questions about complex transformation topics, using this initiative to deepen his understanding—especially noticeable during recent exam preparation.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 biology student put together her own practical report-writing guide after struggling with structure earlier in the term, now referring back to it independently while planning new assignments.

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 Vermont South Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Burwood East Primary School.
