Being patient and understanding. As a former student, I know first hand how disheartening it is to fail and be critiqued by teachers. I want to encourage them despite failures and to keep pushing them to keep trying their hardest. My biggest strength is my adaptability. I know from experience that there isn't a set method of teaching and some…

It is being able to relate to students who struggle and find a way that works for them, not necessarily a way that only works for me. In my experience, a student needs a tutor willing to adapt to their needs. A tutor can always keep track of their student's progress and help them achieve their goals. We are helping students achieve their goals.…

Developing a relationship with students. From experience, if there is no relationship with a student, the less likely they are going to want to learn and engage in my tutoring sessions.

Mariana Hahir, Frankston

Inside FrankstonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Riley focused on adding and subtracting negative numbers, then practised multiplying them in more complex sums.

Year 9 student Sarah worked through bivariate data analysis, interpreting scatterplots and discussing lines of best fit using real-world examples.

For Year 10, Liam tackled financial maths concepts including calculating interest and depreciation, applying formulas to practical scenarios.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student, faced with probability problems involving multiple dice, felt "a bit overwhelmed and unsure where to begin," leading to hesitation on multi-step questions.

In Year 8, confusion about which formula applied meant errors distinguishing between perimeter and area during geometry work.

A Year 10 learner, when graphing algebraic equations, sometimes rushed—one tutor observed this resulted in "errors that could have been avoided by slowing down."

For a Year 7 student working on fractions and decimals, trouble remembering procedures led to repeated stumbling over conversions. This pattern left some questions half-finished as time ran out during practice.

Recent Achievements

A Frankston tutoring session saw a Year 11 student move from hesitating over matrix multiplication to working through each step independently, which had been a sticking point in earlier weeks.

Another tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to quietly guess at statistics questions now confidently explains the difference between dependent and independent variables and accurately identifies strong or weak correlations without prompting.

Meanwhile, one primary student who struggled with times tables has started recalling tricky sums in order during lessons—last week he answered every multiplication question without pausing 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 Carrum Downs Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like SEDA College (Victoria) - Frankston Park Function Centre.
