A tutor should be the mentor for students and guide them the way rather than just spoon-feeding them with the content. Also, a tutor should always remain unbiased towards the students. Talking about my strengths, I am capable of teaching students in such a way that they are able to relate to what I am explaining in the first go and I think that is…

Most people's perception of the job of a tutor is always to guide a student to be successful in the study/subject. Although that is an important role as a tutor, I find the most important aspect a tutor can do for a student is to further ignite their passion and interest in their subject. No matter how much a tutor can help, but if a student does…

Allowing the student to grasp the content more than being able to memorise the lesson, I think is a vital value and being able to help them do that is what I think is the most important thing for me. Further, making sure they enjoy the content that they learn rather than feeling like they are forced to learn is another important condition.…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to teach the subject in their level of understanding and teach them the fundamentals.

Inside Officer SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Elisha worked on place value and long multiplication, stepping back to solidify foundational number skills before moving towards more complex operations.

In Year 7, Naomi focused on algebraic techniques and understanding place values, starting with a pre-year assessment to identify strengths and gaps.

For Year 8, Colin practiced simplifying algebraic expressions and explored different types of number patterns, using worked examples for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student sometimes left homework incomplete, as seen when sections of assigned work were missing; this meant time in-session was spent catching up rather than extending learning.

In a senior maths session, confusion arose during trigonometry problems due to over-reliance on calculators and skipping written working—"he did it all on the calculator but couldn't explain the steps."

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student avoided longer worded questions in her workbook by skipping them entirely if they looked complex, only realising their simplicity once reviewed together.

One Year 10 student repeatedly overlooked tutor feedback, especially regarding misreading perimeter and area questions, which led to recurring errors across tasks.

Recent Achievements

One Officer South tutor noticed a big shift in Naomi, a Year 9 student who used to get stuck on worded maths questions—she now pauses to break down what's being asked before starting her calculations, instead of guessing or freezing.

In another high school session, Ella managed to factorise and expand independently after struggling with these steps earlier in the term.

For a younger student, Elisha (Year 5) has begun reading more fluently out loud and recently wrote two essays packed with detailed ideas, showing she's moving from basic summaries to richer writing without prompting.

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