The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, not to just explain a certain problem but to help them understand the concept behind it, explain to them why they are doing it. Students need to be motivated, without motivation students lose the desire to learn. I feel that if students understand why they have to do it maths or English…

As a tutor, I should be to guide the student to understand and familiarise them with the subject contents. Also, to test their knowledge in order to make them confident and comfortable when writing an test. In my opinion as a good teacher, you should be able to listen and understand, have a thorough understanding of the subject and deliver the…

I believe the most important thing for a tutor to do is to cultivate the interest and engagement of the students. In Chinese, there is an idiom that roughly translates to "Interest is the best teacher", by actively engaging the interests of students you make learning not a chore, but rather a joy. I believe that my biggest strength lies in my…

Great communication and really understanding the students way of learning. Whether it is visually or through notes, the tutor should be able to adapt the way he teaches based on the students capabilities and understanding. Also the ability to not make class boring or a drag, because the student is then uninterested and bored, which hinders their…

Not only unraveling inquiries on schoolwork, I believe it is important for them to understand the concepts behind a text or maths questions, such as correlated themes of a text. By offering a new perspective to students, a tutor does need a high level of patience to answer further questions. A tutor should also give honest feedback and encourage…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can bring to their student is support. Often students who hire a tutor usually have some pressures concerning the subject; either it is a subject they are struggling in and require more time to grasp key concepts or they are looking to excel. In both cases, it is important that the tutor not only…

Inside ScoresbyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Esther worked on reading aloud from the Fitzroy Reader series, focusing on pronunciation and understanding of new vocabulary like "light" and "melody" using fill-in-the-blank exercises.

In Year 10, Jake tackled operations with matrices, including advanced problems involving communication and dominance matrices to deepen his understanding for SAC preparation.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Olivia focused on VCE Maths Methods exam revision by practising extended response questions in probability, as well as reviewing multistage experiments and conditional probability scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 2 English, a student avoided reading aloud when longer words appeared; "she jumped to the first and last letter of 'mandarin' instead of sounding out each part." This made it hard to build confidence with unfamiliar texts.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student's maths progress was slowed by incomplete homework on polynomial functions—assigned tasks weren't brought in for feedback, so misconceptions lingered.

In VCE Maths Methods, another student repeatedly left school assignment problems unfinished, meaning key skills (like exam-style extended responses) remained shaky before tests.

Each instance led to lost chances for targeted support or skill consolidation at crucial moments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Scoresby recently noticed a big change in Joanne (Year 7): after struggling to keep track of her maths notes, she's now organising them independently and finishing most homework tasks correctly.

In Year 11 maths, Ashley went from hesitating to ask for help with functions to clarifying every doubt out loud during sessions, then tackling even the tougher problems without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger student who used to skip over hard words is now stopping mid-sentence to self-correct pronunciation—she read an entire book this week and handled tricky two-syllable nouns on her own.

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