Physics Tutor Wandana Heights, VIC
In the short term, help them get over the current difficulties they're facing. But in the long term, help them develop the skills to deal with future difficulties without a tutor being needed. I am very passionate about mathematics. I have a methodically logical mind, but also a lot of appreciation for the beauty of the subject, which I believe I…

Being Non-judgmental with a desire to help; does not make assumptions about students; treats all students as individuals who want to learn and have the ability to learn no matter what their personal background or circumstances are. Encourages independence: You do not want the student to rely on you at all times. Let them know that they must put…

First thing is trust, the tutor should be responsible, good listener, and patient; as a result, the student will trust on him and feel more comfortable to learn. Second, the tutor should understand and analyze the student difficulties to create an individual approach for his learning. Therefore, teaching will be an easy way for the tutor and the…

I believe a tutor should inspire a student to reach for certain goals by first of all being an example of greatness him/herself or by pointing the student towards greatness. A tutor could achieve this by citing examples of great people whose names lived beyond them thus helping the student find purpose in life. Once the passion to become more and…

A tutor must be able to not only provide feedback, but also be able to respond to a student that is active in the process of learning. They must be able to structure learning around the student's difficulties in a topic, and give a pre-determined plan of how they are going to make that student's difficulties a strength. Because of this, they…

To listen, and understand why a student isn't understanding a topic.

A tutor needs to analyse and understand the way a specific student learns, and cater for that.

I understand…

I think that as a tutor of a child or young adult one of the most important tasks is to analyse how the student feels about the subject and adapt to their individual needs.

Constructive feedback is one of the most important things that a tutor can do. I know, as a student, that not getting important feedback on my learning and how I'm going with my subjects prevents me from going the extra mile. Even small, precise feedback is often the bridge between an A student and an A+ student. I also believe that a tutor…

Inside GeelongTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Eliz revised subtraction and decimals, practised some chance questions, and was introduced to Roman numerals using simple exercises.

In Year 8, Chloe worked through test corrections on fractions—focusing on simplifying and converting between mixed and improper forms—and wrote a descriptive essay analysing film characters for English.

For Year 10, Olivia explored quadratic equations in mathematics and discussed mean, median, mode, and range when interpreting line graphs in statistics.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 maths, one student struggled with remembering formulas and "needed to pause mid-problem to look them up," which slowed down progress in multi-step algebra questions.

A Year 11 student relied heavily on the calculator during trigonometry, skipping manual checks and missing opportunities to catch entry errors—"he just pressed buttons without thinking through each step."

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner's division work showed confusion over order of operations; forgetting multiplication tables made factor questions drag on.

In English (Year 7), another avoided revising spelling errors after feedback, so repeated mistakes crept into her next essay draft.

Recent Achievements

One Geelong tutor recently saw a Year 11 student who had previously hesitated to attempt challenging differentiation problems now independently solve several chain rule questions without prompting.

In a separate high school session, a Year 9 student—who used to avoid participating in group discussions—began sharing her ideas more openly during English analysis, backing up her points with evidence from the text.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who often guessed at answers in maths started pausing to apply tips she'd learned before working through each arithmetic problem and completed an entire set of practice questions with only minimal corrections needed.

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 Geelong City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Mary's School.
