The most important thing a tutor can do is listen. Asking someone to describe their thoughts whilst tackling an issue gives you all the information you need to know in addressing certain aspects and improving their method. I believe I am skilled at taking complex processes and reducing them to basic steps which are more easily approachable. I am…

As an educator the most important thing you can provide for a student are the tools and strategies that can help them to learn.

Building confidence in a students ability. Sometimes the only thing preventing students from excelling is doubt in their knowledge.

I believe, more than anything else, that a tutoring space should feel judgement free for a student. A student should not feel hesitant to ask questions or to clarify a concept. In fact, I believe it to be a good sign if a student is able to outright say that my explanation is not what they need or understand. Fostering such a safe and trusting…

listening to students and finding out what they want out of the sessions and how they prefer to learn. By doing so we can offer a method of learning that's customized to them as an individual and not as a class.

Hayden was a great tutor for my son and his confidence had improved with his Maths work and with his overall confidence. He felt in control of managing his sessions, and he felt comfortable with Haydon.

Inside LeopoldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Eliz focused on double digit multiplication and the long division method, along with a brief introduction to factors.

Year 10 student Alex worked on interpreting and modeling linear associations by solving equations of least squares lines and discussing the meaning of intercepts and slopes using real data sets.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Emily practiced anti-differentiation techniques for basic terms and applied them to finding areas under curves, drawing directly from her school textbook exercises.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student working on calculus sometimes skips a step or goes too quickly, especially when anti-differentiating terms with fractions, which led to missing key details in solutions.

In Year 8, a student often forgot to bring essential materials like her books and calculator home, making it hard to review progress and build continuity between sessions.

For a Year 6 learner, doubts about basic multiplication tables slowed down work on division and factors—this hesitation lingered during practice.

One VCE Maths Methods student hesitated to trust her answers in complex questions, second-guessing even correct steps under pressure.

Recent Achievements

One Leopold tutor recently saw Marissa, a Year 11 student, finally nail converting between index and log expressions—something that had been a sticking point for her, but she now moves through the steps without pausing to check each one.

In another high school session, Poppy took real initiative by compiling her own summary sheet from several lessons' notes before an upcoming test, instead of waiting for prompts as she used to.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to hesitate when reading aloud now volunteers to read new paragraphs during English sessions and self-corrects tricky words as she goes.

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