I believe be able to help students in study is one important thing. However helping them emotionally and in life could be essential for them. As they might have had a bad day at school or didn’t get good marks in exams. There’s few things I believe that’s more important than study. I believe I can help kids understanding a concept during…

I believe taking the time with each individual student and connecting with them on a personal level is the most important thing as each student is going through different experiences and difficulties. I believe this is the difference between being a tutor to becoming a mentor as well which will elevate the students' skills in many ways not only in…

An ability to communicate a genuine passion for the subject. Patience and being calm in the delivery of the content. I think reassurance that there is often a feeling of uncertainty through the learning process and that this is perfectly ok and a sign that learning is happening. Being structured in the delivery of the content so that there can…

Role of tutor is not to make a student learn single subject, but understand students' learning rhythm and motivations.

I believe that it is paramount for a tutor to understand that every student learns differently and therefore may need a different approach to studying to achieve their goals. A tutor should ask their student how they learn best and implement this feedback into their approach to tutoring. Similarly, it is important to understand that each student…

As a tutor, I think it's important to be there for them. Learning loads of new concepts almost every second day can be overwhelming and with that, all students have their strengths and weaknesses.

Also, my strength is a tutor is my…

Inside StrathmoreTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Oliver focused on mean, median, and mode as well as constructing and interpreting stem-and-leaf plots.

In Year 10, Jessica worked through comparative text essays by exploring themes, linking similarities and differences between texts, and using specific examples with quotes.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ben reviewed momentum and energy concepts in Physics, discussing problem-solving strategies relevant to his current lessons.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student was encouraged to spend time double-checking his working and answers in algebra, but layout issues meant "he confuses himself" when setting out solutions—this led to missed values that slowed progress.

In English (Year 11), the focus shifted to making writing more cohesive; integrating similarities into each paragraph instead of blocking ideas made the work feel less forced but required effortful reformatting.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student struggled with maintaining motivation after errors in fractions, sometimes getting visibly annoyed before regaining focus.

One lesson ended with misplaced decimals on division tasks, leaving confusion over final answers.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Strathmore noticed a big shift with one Year 10 student who previously struggled to spot an author's contention—now she pinpoints arguments and techniques without prompting.

Another high schooler, Leon, used to rely on step-by-step help for statistics but this week read data and built plots on his own before accurately calculating the mean and range.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who once hesitated with fractions surprised her tutor by quickly adding unlike denominators independently, then showing her work aloud as she explained each step.

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 Moonee Valley Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like Strathmore Primary School.
