As a tutor, I think the enthusiasm is the most important. For a tutor, they have to pay as much effort as they can to help student to solve their questions and let them to understand the question well, they can not give up in the process. Also, they have to prepare well before the tutorial so that students will not waste their time. I have been a…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be there for the student. When a student may feel sad about a grade or a mark they received from a test, it is always important for the tutor to sit down with the student and talk to the student about what they could have done well in the test but also to acknowledge the things they also…

To be responsive and constructive, I felt that I learned the best when I felt connected with the teacher and the class. It can be distracting to feel uncomfortable whilst learning. I would say that having a personalized connection helps students feel more confident in the teacher and attentive to the information being said by the teacher. As I…

A good tutor should be able to clearly explain concepts and methods to their students, and should be able to answer any questions a student has and be prepared before the tutoring session for these questions.

A tutor needs to provide support and consideration of a student's abilities, and empower the student to achieve beyond what they think they can achieve. In particular, for younger students, I believe that tutors can and will help to lay the foundational stones that will provide the driving force to empower students to their best. Even if a…

The ability to understand a student and their learning style is something I highly value in a tutor.

In a tutoring scenario, we are able to cater to them more specifically, to be intuitive about…

A tutor is there to build confidence, in my opinion.

The most important thing a tutor can do would be to be patient enough to go over and over the topics until the student fully grasps all the concepts and not rushing through the topics.

My approach is to first teach the student the concept in the topic area. Then show the student with examples with increasing difficulty. Finally give questions for the student to solve alone by providing some time to think and answer alone. Then guide the student with correct (if answered wrong) and efficient (time saving strategies) methods to…

Very impressed with prompt response to my inquiry and matching the tutoring with student's needs was perfectly achieved. Thank you
Amita, Eaglemont

Inside EaglemontTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Mitch focused on converting improper fractions to mixed numbers and representing fractions on a number line, working through practical examples for clarity.

Year 10 student Olivia reviewed scatterplots and Pearson's correlation coefficient in preparation for an upcoming general maths assessment, including hands-on calculator skills practice.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sarah explored chemical bonding by distinguishing between covalent, ionic, and hydrogen bonds and determining polarity using real compound examples.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4 maths, Elena often tried to solve division and multiplication questions in her head or all at once, avoiding written steps. As a tutor observed, "she submitted homework without showing working out," which made it difficult to track where errors crept in.

For Year 10 English, Mitch missed the short story deadline over the break; this meant lesson time was spent catching up rather than exploring new writing strategies.

During senior chemistry revision, one student forgot to bring prepared flashcards for different bond types, so class time shifted from review to last-minute note-making instead of deeper comparison work.

Recent Achievements

One Eaglemont tutor noticed a real shift with Mitch, a Year 10 student who used to hesitate when asked about literary techniques—last week, he quickly spotted metaphors and alliteration in a poem and even linked them to the mood of the text without prompting.

In chemistry, another high schooler managed to distinguish between polar and nonpolar molecules independently after previously mixing up the concepts, now able to explain each stage in her own words.

Meanwhile, Felix in Year 5 showed new initiative by tackling division problems he'd struggled with before, solving several tough examples on his own during class.

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 Ivanhoe Library & Cultural Hub—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of Mercy College.
