English Tutor Vermont, VIC
Build their self confidence and the ability to be self sufficient. Mindset and attitude plays the most vital role to success in life. Just like school teachers, tutors play a massive role in setting a positive learning environment where students want to learn for their goals and ambitions rather than a student who just wants to get their lesson…

To be patient, understanding and always willing to go back to the basics and refresh their memory and to get the work to fit together. But mostly the tutor must be someone who the student is comfortable with and able to ask any questions or queries however small or silly they may think they might be.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to believe in them. When a child's role model believes in them they begin to believe in themselves and, I believe, that is the first step to accomplishing great things. If a child believes that they have the ability to do something they are more inclined to put more effort…

It is important that a tutor is able to give their students more confidence in their abilities and to improve their overall understanding of the subject. I have the ability to get along with students of all ages as well as a genuine interest in trying to help people improve and a love of teaching. I have also completed my VCE in 2017, achieving an…

For any student, progress will naturally vary and giving them that support and encouragement to persevere and overcome hurdles in their learning is,…

A tutor should motivate and encourage students to try their hardest in their studies, to help build up a resilient mindset as they learn.

I have loved exploring these passions further while studying a Bachelor of Engineering, and this will help me relate to and motivate…

Being a friend and a guide more than an authoritative figure. Working through the problem together so the student doesn't feel that they are the underdog in the situation.

As a tutor, it is important not to be restrictive in your approach and to have flexibility. Being able to personalise your approach, trying out different ways of teaching and altering it to suit the student is necessary to make them feel more at ease when learning as well as bringing out the best in them. Rather than students catering to us, we…

Build their confidence as much as their knowledge because a lot of students who struggle with maths have already told themselves they're 'bad at it.' If you can shift that mindset alongside teaching the content, the results follow. because they have more motivation and energy to try harder everytime. I also think that acting as a mentor as well as…

Inside Croydon HillsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Zoe focused on using pi to calculate the area, radius, and perimeter of circles, and applied these concepts through worked examples.

For Year 9, Marcus completed exam revision covering quadrilaterals, negative fractions, percentage change, decimal termination, the unitary method, and calculating volumes.

In Year 10, Emily practised solving linear equations and graphing them on coordinate axes to strengthen her understanding of relationships between algebraic expressions and their visual representations.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Maths, one student showed difficulty planning exam responses, often not reading questions fully or prioritizing those with the most marks—"would jump to solving before double-checking what was asked," as noted. This led to missed details in multi-step problems.

In Year 9, a tendency to only practice familiar types of linear equations meant newer concepts like graph transformations weren't consolidated, making it harder to apply them under test conditions.

A Year 7 student sometimes avoided showing full working for unit conversions, which made catching small arithmetic errors trickier during revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

One Croydon Hills tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to skip over mistakes now taking time to review errors and correct them independently, especially on quadratic equations.

A senior student in Year 12, who previously hesitated with calculus, has started using derivative graphs to check her answers—showing much more initiative during sessions.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who struggled with the concept of pi last term can now explain where it comes from and why it's useful in measuring circles, even sharing an example without prompting.

Last session finished with him choosing his own word problem about area to solve.

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 Croydon Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Croydon Hills Primary School.
