The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to listen to their problems and guide them on how to solve it. A tutor gives students the tools they need to solve difficult problems, so that they can use the tools in the future to solve problems on their own. As a tutor I'm patient, understanding and forgiving. I know some students take…

A tutor should be able to help overcome challenges the student is facing in a manner that is comfortable for the student.

I believe an important role a tutor has is not only easing a student's fears about a subject (in particular Mathematics), but encouraging them when the student feels disheartened over task loads or low grades. I also believe tutors must help students develop healthy self-study habits that encourage them to try solving problems themselves before…

Inside Sheidow ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Emily focused on solving linear equations and identifying perpendicular lines, practicing with both algebraic problems and worded questions.

For Year 10, Josh worked through factorising quadratic expressions using the sum and product method and revisited expanding brackets to strengthen his exam skills.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Grace tackled confidence intervals for means—choosing sample sizes and understanding how sample size affects interval width—and practiced testing statistical claims using real past exam questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, occasionally multiplies when addition is required, and vice versa—this muddled process made working steps harder to follow, especially without clear equals signs.

In a Year 10 geometry session, the student was missing their book of 'mini-theorems' and had to recall details from memory, slowing progress on proofs.

For a Year 12 probability test, emailed materials were sent home because homework was incomplete; revision focused mainly on familiar question types rather than challenging scenarios.

After setbacks in calculus (Year 11), motivation dipped noticeably—time that could have been spent clarifying errors was instead spent quietly re-reading notes.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Sheidow Park noticed one Year 9 student, who previously rushed through algebra and made errors with expanding brackets, now slows down and checks each step—this shift has meant fewer mistakes and more reliable answers.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student who had trouble interpreting worded geometry questions is now able to break them down logically, confidently finding equations of lines using distance formula without prompting.

In a recent session, a senior student independently used their calculator to solve binomial probability problems for the first time, after weeks of needing reminders about the process.

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 Hallett Cove Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Woodend Primary School.
