First thing is trust, the tutor should be responsible, good listener, and patient; as a result, the student will trust on him and feel more comfortable to learn. Second, the tutor should understand and analyze the student difficulties to create an individual approach for his learning. Therefore, teaching will be an easy way for the tutor and the…

The single most important aspect for a tutor is to be able to keep the student's attention; losing their focus implicates the loss of any further progress in the topic at hand and their faith in how much you can help them as a mentor. Maintaining their concentration throughout the duration of the session, while tiring at times, pays off. I believe…

One of the foremost things a tutor can do for a student is to develop their interest in something which they have disliked or taken for granted. Another thing a tutor can do is to help them not only with their grades, but also with guiding them towards their goals and be a mentor that would inspire them to be the best of themselves. I can be…

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…

Besides from general knowledge of the subjects, understanding the strengths as well as weaknesses of the students is a must for personal tutors. We can develop the most effective way to teach if we are fully aware of these factors. Also, one of the most important things a tutor can do is to be patient and considerate with their students. This way…

A tutor's traditional role is to deliver a concept to a student. However I believe that they also work behind the scenes to raise a student's confidence and enjoyment in a subject. Sometimes it's the tutor that makes or breaks a student's interest and motivation to learn. I have recently just finished schooling so I am very knowledgeable of the…

A tutor needs to analyse and understand the way a specific student learns, and cater for that. While a tutors ability to explain a problem is important, I believe the ability to explain a problem in a variety of different ways, while also showing a student that needing help with school is completely normal, is of upmost importance. I understand…

Personally for me, the teachers at school never went into what you really need to succeed in the HSC, and being one student in a class of 30 meant most times your questions were left unanswered. Having being tutored, having someone available to ask questions that I did not understand was very helpful throughout my schooling career, and I hope to…

Inside North GeelongTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Phoebe worked through revision on indices, using targeted practice to prepare for an upcoming exam.

For Year 10, Jayden focused on solving quadratic equations by factorising and explored Pythagoras' Theorem and introductory trigonometry, applying both skills to worded problems.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Amelia covered exponential growth and decay along with the basics of functions as a new topic, including work on irrational numbers.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student working on quadratic factorisation and inverse trig sometimes skipped memorising the specific rules for each type, which made it harder to identify which method to use when new questions appeared. As one tutor noted, "She needs to memorise the different types of factorising and the rules for each."

In Year 8 algebra sessions, written work was often rushed or lacked careful layout, so sign errors crept in and were missed until feedback time.

During primary division tasks, another student would occasionally guess answers instead of showing working—leaving them less confident when faced with multi-step problems in class.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in North Geelong noticed that a Year 10 student, Phoebe, who previously struggled with indices and surds, now completes these problems confidently and no longer needs support on those topics.

In a recent high school session focused on exponential growth and decay, the same student was able to clarify misunderstandings about compound interest through targeted practice—something she had found confusing before.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student showed a real shift in attitude by focusing intently on questions throughout an entire lesson, compared to earlier sessions where staying engaged was difficult.

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 Corio Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Geelong English Language School (interim name)-North Geelong Campus.
