Listen to them to develop an understanding of the areas they may struggle with or are looking for extra support in. I think also being creative in my approach when required so that the student gets the most out of the sessions and helps them to develop a better understanding. As a result, I think it is important to understand how the student…

I think the most important thing is to be able to teach each child in a way that suits them. I also think it is important to push the children to challenge themselves academically and help to motivate the child to compete their schoolwork. My strengths as a tutor are that I have vast experience working with children of all ages through soccer…

Patience because it is very easy for students to get frustrated when they aren't able to immediately understand a concept. Therefore breaking down tasks into smaller steps allows students to always improve their knowledge. Being able to keep students engaged and understand that every student has a different way of learning, which I achieve through…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, ensure genuine understanding, and create a supportive learning environment. A good tutor doesn’t just explain content, but adapts to the student’s needs, breaks down complex ideas clearly, and checks for understanding through practice. Encouraging…

I think that the main role for a tutor is to guide the srudent through their learning. This is a different role to what a teacher plays as a tutor's role is to help the student build on specific weaknesses and consolidate strong areas in a given subject. Ability to communicate, organisation and…

Instill the resilience and capacity for students to dedicate and apply themselves to their learning rather than being dependent on a tutor to give them all the answers. I tailored my teaching style and session structure to suit the needs of my students rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. I pride myself in making learning enjoyable…

PDHPE Tutor Oakleigh, VIC
I understand that teachers don't always have time to help students one-on-one and that tutors can help bridge the gap. I believe that learning is an exponential process, so a small victory in a tutoring session can lead to enormous benefits in the student's future. I am passionate about enabling students to maximise their…

A tutor should be understanding of their students' learning and study patterns and help them in a way that will benefit their students the most. A tutor should personally support and encourage their student to become more confident in themselves and their study areas alongside explaining content. I am able to use a range of different explaining…

Inside HawthornTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emily worked on fraction operations and consolidating her multiplication tables, using hands-on practice for both.

In Year 10, Matt focused on embedding quotes effectively in English essays about 'The Golden Age' and practiced planning analytical responses to prompts using graphic organisers.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sam tackled quadratic equations by completing the square and applied the elimination method to solve simultaneous equations, also revisiting basic trigonometry concepts like SOH CAH TOA.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student showed inconsistent completion of assigned homework for English SAC revision, which limited the depth of written feedback and skill consolidation; as a tutor noted, "Matt needs to improve completing his assigned homework tasks."

In VCE English, reliance on brief plans rather than detailed mindmaps or highlighting led to weaker essay introductions and difficulty embedding evidence.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 maths student struggled with structuring working in fraction questions—"more practice is needed on fractions," the notes recorded—which slowed progress and sometimes hid small calculation errors.

Missed homework meant extra class time spent reviewing old ground instead of advancing skills.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Hawthorn noticed that Matt, a Year 11 English student, now completes all assigned homework ahead of lessons and brings thoughtful ideas to each session. He's even started using planning tables and flash cards on his own, which wasn't the case before.

In senior maths, Will has become much more independent with graphing linear relations; he used to need step-by-step support but recently translated equations into graphs without prompting.

Meanwhile, Ziggy (Year 8) showed a big shift by reading scenes from a play aloud with expression and then volunteering his interpretation of the characters' motives.

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 City of Boroondara Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Hawthorn West Primary School.
