- Beyond instructing the content and assisting with practice problems, I consider these two elements crucial for a tutor outside the school hours. - A fundamental goal for a tutor is to cultivate in students the skill of critical thinking, analysis, and effective learning techniques. This skill is transferable across subjects and his studies…

I consider guidance as the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. Teachers are important but sometimes they can be carried away by teaching a large group of students in the class. Tutors are there to give personal support to the students to help not just their academic development and also emotionally What most teachers cannot do is…

A tutor must be both a teacher and a mentor. Someone who can teach but also provide advice and emotionally help their students. Someone who can both empathise and sympathise. Someone who can reprimand but also be considerate. That is the most important things a tutor can do for a student. My strengths as a tutor is that whenever I understand a…

The belief of every student has their own strengths and that performances in specific subjects do not determine the student as a person. In my opinion, it is very important for a tutor to fully trust the student's ability, and encourage them along their way of learning.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is believe in them. Many students who are not at the top of their class are there because the world has been telling them they are not capable. This leads to embarassment and thus a decreased willingness to engage. By believing in them and encouraging them, students are more likely to…

I think building the students confidence in the subject is very important.

Local Reviews

Thanh has increased my daughter's confidence in her maths ability. She has a no nonsense but fun approach that keeps a teenager positive about continuing tutoring. My daughter likes that Thanh has different methods of teaching concepts that make more sense to her. And best of all she is positive about my daughters progress.

Inside Glen WaverleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Kye worked on long multiplication with two- and three-digit numbers (including zeroes) and was introduced to division using visual strategies.

Year 7 student Elle focused on probability concepts, tackling practice questions involving multiple events and converting fractions to decimals as part of test preparation.

For Year 8, revision for Kye included rearranging algebraic equations and reviewing fundamental skills in bracket multiplication, helping consolidate methods for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student struggled to bring past tests for review, which meant missed chances to clarify recurring mistakes—"he couldn't check which algebra steps were lost in the test."

In Year 8 maths, forgetting to attempt set homework limited practice with foundational topics like BEDMAS and basic equations.

One Year 6 student often tried questions in their head without showing working; this hid errors when tackling area problems.

Across both junior and senior years, not recording confusing questions during school videos led to gaps that lingered into lessons.

Without these process tweaks, confusion quietly accumulates between sessions.

Recent Achievements

A Glen Waverley tutor noticed some great changes lately. Kye, a high school student, recently brought home his data test with 93%—a big leap after earlier trouble remembering statistics concepts, and he now checks his notes to solve new problems without prompting.

Elle, also in high school, picked up algebraic angle questions much faster than before; she's started explaining her working out aloud rather than guessing quietly.

Meanwhile, Trishelle (primary) has begun completing all her homework each week on her own initiative and points out exactly which maths areas still worry her before starting new tasks.

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 Glen Waverley Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Glen Waverley Secondary College.
