Tutor Kennington, VIC
The most important thing for a tutor is not just about telling the student the right answers but about finding different ways of solving problems. Tutors need to help students develop their understanding of mathematical concepts' properties and shift from concrete materials to abstract concepts. My strengths are knowing the content and knowing my…

The ability to understand a student and their learning style is something I highly value in a tutor. In school classes where they are often one of many, they may find that the teaching style may not work for them and that they cannot achieve their goals. In a tutoring scenario, we are able to cater to them more specifically, to be intuitive about…

Tutor Flora Hill, VIC
Not only is it important to explain concepts well to students, it is also important to create a foundation for students to bounce back on, so that they can understand how to have enhanced learning for the long term. A good tutor should be inspiring so that students will be motivated to be life-long learners. I believe my experience with teaching…

I believe being patient and considerate of each student is the most important thing for a tutor to do because this will make the learning space better for the student. If the student feels like their tutor is genuinely caring for their education then they will give their best. I can gauge when a student is or isn't understanding a concept, and can…

Tutor Bendigo, VIC
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for students is to give them the confidence to believe in their abilities in order for them to view themselves as capable enough to learn new things, work hard and perform their best. This starts with the tutor identifying the student's area of need and working hard alongside them to improve it.…

Tutor Quarry Hill, VIC
Mostly, I think it's important to be consistent in class attendance to make max use out of the limited time period. I also think that always believing in the student makes a huge difference, especially in maths. They need to know that someone sees their capability apart from them. Adding patience to this and allowing them a safe space to make…

Aside from teaching academics, it is important that the tutor understands the student and gives advice on how to be a better student such as being motivated, confident, and of course to see the benefits of the education that they have access to. My strengths as a tutor would be my patience and motivation. I am happy when my students enjoy what…

A tutor must always fully and wholly understand his content and always develop innovative ways to communicate the information to their students; meaning - don't copy the textbook on a power point, instead develop your own materials My recent conclusion of year 12 gives me fresh knowledge on the current study designs, the appropriate material…

Amy helped me update my math skills to get through a university math subject for mature age students (who had not studied math for a long time). She guided me toward excellent sources of information and supported me through the journey. I have no hesitation in recommending Amy to other children or adults requiring assistance in this area.

Inside KenningtonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Mia worked on recognising and converting between mixed and improper fractions, as well as representing fractions accurately on a number line.

Year 8 student Zane practised solving linear equations and interpreting algebra word problems, focusing on step-by-step solutions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Lily revised trigonometry basics by tackling trig problems and bearings, alongside continuing to develop her Wonder essay writing through planning and drafting paragraphs.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often left homework incomplete, particularly English assignments, making it hard to consolidate skills before new topics.

"Spelling and homework this week was not completed to his standard," one tutor noted after a rushed spelling test.

In Year 11 maths, missed practice with fractions showed up as confusion switching between addition and multiplication—without regular revision, gaps grew wider each session.

For a Year 5 student, untidy written working in long division made errors harder to spot; messy layout meant time lost rechecking steps instead of moving forward confidently.

By term's end, focus waned, leaving tasks unfinished and confidence dented.

Recent Achievements

A Kennington tutor recently noticed a big change in a Year 10 student who used to hesitate when stuck on worded maths problems—now, she openly asks for clarification instead of guessing, which has helped her solve trickier questions independently.

Another high schooler surprised himself by mastering composite functions ahead of his class; previously, he'd felt overwhelmed but now volunteers to tackle extra practice without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who struggled with homework organisation proudly brought in a neat folder and completed all assigned work for the first time, showing new ownership over her learning.

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 Bendigo Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like SEDA College (Victoria) - Multi Bendigo.
