I believe it’s important for tutors to create a supportive environments for students. This will allow them to feel comfortable and open to learning. Learning is almost impossible in an environment where students do no feel safe. I also think it’s important for tutors to give students the opportunity to share their learning to encourage active…

The most important thing to keep in mind when tutoring in my opinion is to help them gain confidence & enjoyment in the subject. If a student believes they are bad at a subject, they often won't try as hard because they view it as pointless. Confirmation bias can also lead to only noticing when they make mistakes, meaning they won't recognise the…

Guidance. It's always guidance. Tutors facilitate learning and help activates students' potential. :) Tutors receive all the questions most of the students don't ask in class, and I find it amazing because real learning happens between tutors and students. I already know how to handle them and I can give excellent activities that they can enjoy…

To give them the tools to understand their own way of thinking. One subject tends to have its tendrils in other fields, give the student the key to one, and hopefully they will find the analogous keys to others. I try to break down ideas to people in simpler ways. Often information tends to be presented in an unorganised manner at least in the…

Inside Glen ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emma focused on understanding fractions by representing them visually with circles and naming conventions, then practised relating fractions to division by finding fractions of groups using dot arrays.

In Year 7, Greta worked through fraction-decimal conversions and order of operations, reading and analysing "Platform 13" for comprehension alongside her maths practice.

For Year 10, Marcus revised trigonometric ratios (SOH CAH TOA), solved problems involving unknown sides in triangles, and prepared for an upcoming exam by sketching worded questions and taking structured notes.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3 mathematics, not showing clear written working made it difficult to trace where subtraction and division steps went astray—especially when diagrams couldn't accurately represent sixths or tenths. "Greta often skipped laying out her thinking, so mistakes crept in unnoticed."

By Year 9 algebra, a student sometimes misunderstood when formulas like the cosine rule could be applied, as seen in test preparation notes.

At the senior level, failing to check answers during induction proofs in maths meant small sign errors persisted.

In French (Year 7), hesitance to attempt full sentences led to missed practice with key verbs and confidence drops during conversation tasks.

Recent Achievements

A Glen Park tutor noticed a Year 9 student who previously struggled to apply exponent laws now solves equations with exponents presented in non-standard forms, even explaining her reasoning aloud.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student who used to hesitate when faced with probability questions can now determine the probability of intersecting events using tables, after practising arranging and selecting outcomes step by step.

In a primary session, one student—initially reluctant to read aloud—became so absorbed in a story that she read expressively without pausing at tricky words and chose to continue reading herself rather than handing over the book.

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 Ballarat Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Glen Park Primary School.
