Tutor Black Hill, VIC
I believe it’s important for tutors to create a supportive environments for students. This will allow them to feel comfortable and open to learning. Learning is almost impossible in an environment where students do no feel safe. I also think it’s important for tutors to give students the opportunity to share their learning to encourage active…

Willow
Tutor Alfredton, VIC
To give them the tools to understand their own way of thinking. One subject tends to have its tendrils in other fields, give the student the key to one, and hopefully they will find the analogous keys to others. I try to break down ideas to people in simpler ways. Often information tends to be presented in an unorganised manner at least in the…

Inside Miners RestTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
