An important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make sure they are focusing on areas of study that the student struggles with that they might miss out on in school to ensure they are doing the best that they can. My strengths as a tutor are that I am very interactive and enjoy allowing students to participate as I find this makes learning…

I believe persistence and encouragement are important in supporting a student, especially if they don't receive this at their own school. A main reason students don't do well or aren't productive is because they aren't motivated. It is important to try and help them be self-motivated by their own passions and desires in life. I would not give up…

A tutor can make students feel interested in studies and make them feel confident, relaxed and provide individual attention to students.

I feel that understanding the student's weak areas and trying to make him/her feel less intimidated with the problems is the main role of a tutor. Also, another important task of a tutor is to simplify tasks for his/her students. One on one teaching is my speciality. I can simplify problems to students who find it difficult to do the math. Also, I…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help build/maintain self confidence as well as to incite a love of learning by awakening curiosity.

I think building confidence and a long-lasting appreciation of learning in a particular subject are the best things a tutor can give to a student.

Simply to understand the student as an individual. Everyone has different learning styles, what works for some won't work for others.

A tutor should be knowledgeable to be able to address all concerns of a student and check when unable to immediately answer a query.

Local Reviews

Tutoring seems to be going well. I think both Matthew and Abbey are starting to settle into a routine. Abbey has started to apply some of the methods Matthew has shown her to school work. She has come home from school a couple of times now, saying she was asked a question during maths time and got it right. Which, of course, she was very happy about! Within the next few weeks, I will receive Abbey’s report for semester 1. I will show Matt, so he has even more understanding of her needs. I’m looking forward to seeing what they achieve in the coming months.

Inside SeaholmeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Madison worked on consolidating skills in Pythagoras' theorem and solving worded problems involving side lengths, as well as applying trigonometric ratios to find unknown sides in triangles.

For Year 8, Rohan focused on expanding and factorising binomial expressions using distribution methods, along with factorising by grouping.

In Year 5, Emily practised rounding decimals and rounding numbers to significant figures for improved accuracy in calculations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student often relied on a calculator to identify gradients and intercepts, which limited her grasp of linear equations—"she could solve for x when y=0 but needed the calculator for reassurance."

In Year 12, one learner hesitated to show algebraic working, sometimes erasing steps rather than leaving mistakes visible; this made it harder to catch sign errors in factorisation.

For a Year 5 student, untidy written work during division tasks led to misaligned digits and confusion.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 struggled to keep track of materials and occasionally forgot completed homework, causing last-minute stress before lessons.

Recent Achievements

One Seaholme tutor noted that Aida, a Year 11 student, moved from feeling uncertain with linear graphs to confidently recognising and plotting them using the y=mx+c rule; she also started developing her own plan for tackling upcoming assessments.

In another session, Madison (Year 10) showed new independence by asking targeted questions about trigonometry, then applied trig ratios herself to find unknown angles—something she previously hesitated to attempt without guidance.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once guessed at times tables now talks through problems aloud and works out new multiplication facts by building from ones she already knows.

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