Tutor Ferntree Gully, VIC
I do think it's very important a student never feels judged or stressed from the pressure of learning, as that can taint their experience for a long time before they are comfortable again to engage actively. It's crucial tutors are understanding of how a student is feeling and supports them as much as possible in moments of confusion and…

By helping them get a good grip of the foundation of the subject or topic. This is why I enjoy tutoring as well, as it lets me revise. I believe that with a good foundation the student will be more capable of catching on quickly to more harder topics and won't find it frustrating even if they initially struggle with it.

Inside KallistaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Daniel focused on adding and subtracting fractions, practiced interpreting 24-hour time, and continued to consolidate times tables knowledge through active recall and written exercises.

In Year 10, Vien worked on refining essay writing by rewording sentences for clarity and began preparing content for an upcoming SAC assessment.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Isaac revised algebraic fractions in test preparation sessions and explored linear relations using practice problems from his recent classwork.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often avoided challenging maths problems, instead "prioritising known topics," which limited exposure to new skills and made harder questions in class feel daunting.

In VCE English, one student's essays were hard to follow because ideas weren't planned out, and their handwriting was described as "difficult to read," so teachers struggled to find key arguments.

A Year 10 student sometimes skipped homework or left revision incomplete—this meant valuable time was spent re-learning old material rather than progressing.

During timed tests, slow planning and indecision resulted in unfinished responses and mounting frustration.

Recent Achievements

One Kallista tutoring session saw a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to tackle extended essays now breaking down reading tasks independently and finishing almost every homework question on her own.

Another high schooler, after struggling with applying formulas, began identifying which ones to use without hints—completing his maths revision swiftly and fixing small mistakes himself.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who once second-guessed his times tables started answering flash card drills quickly and even volunteered to solve new multiplication problems aloud during the lesson.

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 Belgrave Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kallista Primary School.
