I can listen. A tutor is there to accommodate the student's needs, and no high ATAR is going to mean anything if they can't. In general, emotional intelligence is very important for tutors. I will always try to understand what it is whoever I'm helping actually needs help with, and then listen to them as we continue to work - there’s no point in…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is making sure they have enough confidence and belief in themselves to replicate the work you do together, by themselves.

A tutor must be patient with their student. It is vital to understand that the student may not understand the concept in only one class, but they can continue to learn it slowly over multiple classes to slowly build confidence. Because of this, the tutor must have patience in the student's abilities and recognise that they mustn't make the student…

I think a tutor must help a student understand their work. A deep level understanding is good as it can give new perspectives to their work and to their endeavors. A surface level understanding is okay for replicating pre-set answers for a question, but a deeper understanding allows the person to view the question in a different way and to give…

Inside KaloramaTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 5 student Erin worked on strategies for recalling times tables and ways to improve focus during problem-solving.
Year 10 student Codi revised circular functions in preparation for an upcoming exam and practiced applying trigonometric ratios.
For a senior secondary student, recent lessons focused on Unit 3 Chemistry, covering fuel cells as well as redox reactions, with relevant textbook questions used for consolidation.
Recent Challenges
In Year 4 mathematics, one student avoided writing out working for large addition and subtraction problems, preferring mental calculations. As a tutor noted, "she tends to add and subtract big numbers in her head rather than writing down her working out," which led to confusion when errors appeared.
In Year 10 English, another student's ideas were strong but she struggled to express them clearly on paper; overly wordy sentences sometimes muddled her arguments during essay tasks.
Meanwhile, a Year 11 maths student repeatedly left revision sheets untouched before tutoring sessions—this meant valuable time was spent catching up rather than focusing on specific exam-style questions.
Recent Achievements
A tutor in Kalorama recently saw some great steps forward with students across different year levels. In Year 10 maths, Ayelet began tackling index laws with much less guidance and now talks through her process aloud—previously, she hesitated to explain her reasoning but is becoming more self-assured each session.
Meanwhile, Lizzie (Year 12 English) has started embedding quotes into her essays without prompting and even introduced new interpretations to their discussions, a shift from relying mainly on tutor feedback before.
In a younger session, Maya challenged herself by completing a division speed round in just two minutes after struggling with accuracy and timing earlier in the term.
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 Montrose Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mount Dandenong Primary School.
