One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to listen to them. To ask and listen to what the student needs in order to understand difficult concepts goes a long way in ensuring students receive the most out of their sessions. I frequently ask my students if they prefer various ways of me teaching (worksheets, games, verbal…

Be respectful and patient. It's essential to understand the students' needs and preferred methods of learning, as everyone's habits are so different. It's best to approach the lessons with the student's perspective in mind. I am a patient, down-to-earth person who prefers having a friendly relationship with the student so that they will feel…

Be available and help them develop transferable skills. In my opinion, there's no point handing them an A+ essay to study and learn phrases, but rather help them understand why each type of connection and phrase is important and adds value, so that they can build their own skills which can be used under pressure in exams and across all of their…

Psychology Tutor Bundoora, VIC
A tutor's main goal should be to help the student develop the tools to go into the classroom and be confident about their skills, and hopefully, eventually, go on with their education, and ultimately their future, without a tutor. My greatest strength in tutoring is that I know that there are multiple ways to look at the same information, and…

Psychology Tutor Bundoora, VIC
The most important things a tutor can do for their students are to build their confidence and create a comfortable environment where they feel okay asking questions and making mistakes. It’s also about helping them develop a deeper understanding of the subject, not just memorizing answers, so they can apply their knowledge in different…

Inside HadfieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Oliver worked on drawing linear graphs, understanding gradient, and the y = mx + b form, using clear step-by-step examples.

In Year 10, Oliver focused on solving simultaneous linear equations with the elimination method and reviewed circle geometry including area calculations.

For Year 5, Myki practised multiplication and factors through revision activities and extended this to cover fractions, division, highest common factor, and lowest multiple.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often preferred to solve algebraic equations mentally and skipped writing out steps, as one tutor noted: "He likes to solve equations in his head. He needs to write how he solved the problems." This habit made it harder to catch sign errors or understand where confusion started, especially with negatives and indices.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student's messy hand counting for subtraction sometimes led to miscounts—extra time was spent correcting basic errors rather than building new skills.

In Year 10 probability, not reading written questions closely left key parts unanswered and confidence dropped after each unclear result.

Recent Achievements

One Hadfield tutor recently noticed a big change with Oliver in Year 9 maths: after struggling to make sense of linear equations, he's now confidently graphing lines using the y = mx + b formula and even tackled substitution methods without hesitation.

In another session, a Year 11 student who previously froze on probability questions was able to tackle class problems independently after working through both experimental and theoretical probability with support.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to make frequent mistakes when hand counting has started getting through addition and subtraction columns accurately—last week he finished all ten problems without any errors.

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 Glenroy Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Thomas More's School.
