English Tutor Greensborough, VIC
It is important to be patient and a good listener. Students learn at their own pace and you cannot push them. Even if something seems simple to you, for the student it might not be. Being a good listener means not dominating the conversation. Allow the students to ask questions and give the students plenty of time to answer your questions.…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is understand their true needs. Sometimes students need more than just a teacher who is repeating themselves to help them understand things. Tutors should be trying different techniques and approaches that better suit that student, and understand the weaknesses of that student to…

Ultimately, an english tutor is an additional source of help on top of schooling. The reason students look for this external assitance is due to traditional teaching methods being subpar. Schools should ensure that this is never the case, but In reality it is unfortunately so. Hence, the most important thing I can provide for my students is to…

I think it is extremely important for an english tutor to be adaptable. Different students have differing learning styles and needs, and therefore, to help different students, you need to be able to tailor your tutoring to individualised approaches. Furthermore, rather than just giving the children the answers, as a tutor it is important to be…

Build their confidence. Every student is different. One cannot treat them on the same plain. Some are aware of their shortcomings and are just confused. Some are hardworking while others can be smart-workers or differently remarked. A tutor must recognise that talent in them and help them use it in growing. Explaining instances metaphorically…

Being an inspirational character. A tutor has to encourage his/her students always. During a semester/course, there will be certain times when students will lose interests for a poor mark (may be), or a personal problem. A tutor can't force a student to complete a session because it has to! A friendly approach can be helpful sometimes as well.…

Local Reviews

My son has only had two lessons. The first tutor did not work out. The second was great with an instant connection made. My son feels Sam will help him and the worried look of failing maths has left his face. Ezy maths offered the second lesson free given their first tutor didn't work out. I feel confident my son will improve and supported by Ezy Maths Tutoring.

Inside GreensboroughTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Ethan focused on calculating the perimeter and circumference of various shapes, including circles, and practiced arc length questions alongside unit conversions and some introductory algebra.

Year 8 student Lara worked through finding the area of different shapes such as circles, rectangles, and sectors, then applied these skills to complex worded problems.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Sophie tackled a mix of algebraic equations and mental maths using real-world examples for application.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Maths, one student was hesitant to attempt complex worded problems without guidance; as a tutor noted, "she needed more practice applying concepts in unfamiliar situations."

In VCE English, another student avoided selecting supporting quotes independently for essay tasks, delaying progress until after feedback.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student displayed test anxiety: under time pressure she panicked and skipped planning steps in algebra quizzes.

At the primary level, one student began relying on a calculator for simple sums like 6+4 instead of practicing mental strategies—this habit crept in during online lessons and made tracking basic errors difficult.

Recent Achievements

In Greensborough, a Year 10 student who used to skip showing her working for maths problems is now writing out every step. She recently tackled complex perimeter questions independently after initially needing guidance.

During a Year 8 science session, another student who was previously hesitant to share ideas managed to interpret experiment results herself. She also wrote up her own discussion and conclusion.

A younger primary student who often guessed at tricky words began sounding them out instead, reading through an entire passage with only minimal support from the tutor.

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 Diamond Valley Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Greensborough Primary School.
