Alfred

Tutor Clifton Springs, VIC
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to identify the student's weak area and to prioritize the student's needs first. The tutor lessons are most effective when tutors are following the student's need and helping the students to improve on their weak area. I am approachable: I can get along with the student fairly soon…

I am very good and breaking complex topics down into small attainable parts…

Inside Clifton SpringsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Liam focused on mastering indices and index laws, working through example problems to strengthen algebraic manipulation.

Year 10 student Zoe tackled completing the square and factorising quadratic equations, with extra practice on recognising different forms of quadratics.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Eliz revised subtraction and worked through arithmetic problems involving decimals, plus had an introduction to Roman numerals using visual aids for better understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student working through algebra relied on "doing questions in my head," but skipped writing out steps, making it hard to catch sign errors—this slowed progress and left gaps unaddressed.

In Year 7, one learner struggled with recalling multiplication tables during division problems; as noted, "she paused often and lost her place," which interrupted problem-solving flow.

For a senior student tackling graph sketching in mathematics, avoiding written working meant concepts were only half-grasped and mistakes repeated across practice sets.

When feedback wasn't taken up between sessions, confusion lingered into the next lesson.

Recent Achievements

One Clifton Springs tutor noticed Owen, a Year 10 student, has gone from mixing up index laws to confidently applying them without prompting during problem sets.

In another session, Zoe in Year 11 was hesitant about completing the square but now independently tackles quadratic factorisation after working through several examples together.

Meanwhile, a younger student who previously rushed through reading tasks is now pausing to sound out tricky words and self-correcting errors—something she used to avoid by skipping ahead. Last week, she finished reading an entire page aloud with only two small prompts from her tutor.

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 Drysdale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Clifton Springs Primary School.
