A tutor should display patience, kindness, and develop a relationship with the student; as well as personalised learning. I think it is important to develop different strategies of explaining concepts to students, this is a skill I was able to further improve whilst on placement. There is more to tennis coaching than teaching children how to…

The most important thing for a tutor is to engage with the student in a way different than their teachers at school. Tutor should emotionally understand the student first. It is not just about teaching the subject, it's also about understanding the nature of your student. I engage with my audience and make them feel comfortable to interact with…

For me, the important thing that I can do for my students is helping them to build confidence. I guess most students tend to hire tutors not because they are not good at the subject somehow, but because they lack confidence and interest in it. Therefore, what I can do is to activate their interests and build up confidence in my way. There are…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is ensure that the student has gained the ability to consolidate the information taught. The student must be able to reproduce the content learned in their own words at their own time. Specifically for English, many students have wonderful, original ideas in their minds, however, they…

Tutors are expected to bolster student grades however this is not their true purpose, A tutor should help to develop students to not only achieve greater marks but also to have a greater understanding of the field they are being tutored in. This should extend beyond the tutoring time as the student develops the skills required to support…

I believe support and encouragement are the most important elements that me as a tutor can help my students.

I think a tutor can teach a student how to learn a topic after it is explained by the tutor. Because at the end, it is the student who needs to learn by themselves after something is being taught to them. A tutor should make sure that anyone can learn those topics on their own if they are introduced by the tutor. My first strength as a tutor is my…

Inside St GeorgesTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Divyanshu focused on Stage 2 Chemistry topics such as **stoichiometry**, unit conversions, and chromatography (including Rf values and retention time), while in Mathematical Methods worked through differentiation techniques like chain rule, product rule, quotient rule, and applications to ln(x) and e^x using examples.

Year 11 Lucy revised **index laws**, worked with fractional indices including negative powers converted to surds, and practiced simplifying algebraic expressions with BEDMAS.

For Year 6 maths, Maja revisited linear relations from the basics—covering **gradient calculation** (rise over run), forms of y = mx + c, and graphing functions after missing two weeks of content.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Chemistry, a student repeatedly struggled to draw accurate organic structures, such as esters and carbohydrates—"he attached the oxygen to the wrong carbon," one tutor noted—making it difficult to score full marks in written responses.

Meanwhile, in senior Maths, another student often forgot to substitute values back into original equations when finding stationary points, leading to incomplete solutions.

For a Year 7 learner, inconsistent recall of index laws slowed progress with fraction problems and left her uncertain during mixed operations.

When these gaps occurred under time pressure or test conditions, small errors compounded and confidence faltered mid-task.

Recent Achievements

One St Georges tutor noticed Zac, a Year 9 student, move from struggling to write much at all to independently completing a full-length essay within a week—something he hadn't managed before.

In recent high school maths sessions, Divyanshu has begun correcting his own algebraic mistakes without prompting and now solves first principle problems solo, showing a new level of self-reliance compared to earlier lessons.

Meanwhile, Lucy in primary years has shifted from hesitating with fractions to confidently adding and subtracting them with minimal guidance; last session she even factored simple equations accurately 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 Burnside Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Seymour College.
