English Tutor Pascoe Vale, VIC
If you can make your students shine and bring their own strengths to the forefront, you've won. You have to believe in them before they believe in themselves and if you're in tune with your student and can bring out all their hidden gems, there's nothing that could compare. I think I'm pretty engaging and just enjoy expressing myself. If I'm…

I feel the problem with most tutors is they know their content but that they don't know how the other child would grasp it as in my experience each child is different and as tutors we must understand their way of understanding and try explaining in a way that it is easy for them to understand. So this is one of the most important things a tutor…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student are provide academic guidance, human connection, and consistency, and the combination of these factors can potentially reinvent a class, subject, or school more broadly for a young learner. Some of my greatest strengths are that I'm very energetic and patient. I lean on these qualities heavily…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to assist them in developing the relevant skills that they need to be successful and proficient in a subject, to the point in which they have enough confidence within their own abilities to approach the curriculum without feeling that they require extra assistance. The role of…

To listen and make the learning experience enjoyable. The best way to learn is to do it in a way that does not stress you out, make it easy to understand.

To help encourage them to try there best. Everyone wants 100% but they may not necessarily get it.

A tutor should be able to lift the confidence of a student; with the ability to detect their strengths, as well as listing potential weaknesses so that there is a level of realism when analysing one's raw ability in a subject. I have the ability to break concepts into small parts to increase the level of understanding for a student. Paired with my…

Help them to break down a problem and follow a methodical set of steps. A lot of science and mathematics subjects require a lot of practice and exposure to problems and questions. Starting from the basic routine work and working to more complex, abstract concepts is the key to good teaching. My strengths involve working around student's strengths…

A tutor needs to be able to successfully teach the student the material but also needs to provide the motivation and confidence a student needs to study and conquer any tests/exams. Students study around the clock, thus a tutor needs to be available when assistance is most required to provide the necessary support. Also recognise that many things…

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…

Because delivering the lesson and making sure the student understands is basically a essence of being a tutor, I wouldn't consider it the most important. Instead, it's helping my students identify the "WHY"s (the purpose of their learning, values applicable beyond the lesson) as well as the "HOW"s (the way they can achieve it, even if the learning…

That is easy. The most important thing is to inspire them and engage their curiosity.

Confidence is a key element that tutors can either instil or take away from a student. All children are born with a capacity to learn and it is our job to help them realise their great potential. In saying that, tutors must always be kind, encouraging and supportive of a child so that they can be confident enough to venture into the unknown and…

Inside LalorTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Aiden completed an assessment and then focused on understanding decimals, using number lines to help visualise place value.

Year 8 student Emily worked through linear relations, including finding gradients and x- and y-intercepts, followed by graphing equations.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Jason prepared for his exam by practising algebraic techniques such as simplifying algebraic fractions and working with perfect squares and the difference of squares.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student hesitated to attempt harder algebra questions, giving up quickly when unsure—"too many times he has just given up when the question is too hard or he does not understand it." This reluctance meant missed opportunities to develop resilience and left gaps in understanding, especially with worded problems.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 biology student struggled to summarise processes like mitosis and meiosis; lack of interest made recall difficult and diagrams incomplete.

In Year 4 maths, one child often skipped drawing graphs properly when tired, resulting in messy work that made later revision confusing and less effective.

Recent Achievements

One Lalor tutor noticed a real shift in Priya's approach to her high school maths—she now remembers to label units in geometry problems, something she often overlooked before, and tackles simultaneous equations confidently using both substitution and elimination methods.

Another high school student who used to get stuck on worded algebra questions has begun deciphering them independently after a few guided examples, moving from hesitation to self-correction during sessions.

Meanwhile, Sophie (primary) improved her times tables speed dramatically, dropping from 41 seconds to just 31, and now carefully checks tricky ones instead of rushing through.

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 Lalor Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Peter Lalor Secondary College.
