I am great at seeing connections between concepts and therefore good at relating new topics with prior knowledge. This makes me good at explaining things…

Personally, I think the most important things a tutor can do are to help a student identify any weak points and build their confidence in a topic, with plenty of guided past-paper questions to keep engagement high. It is also important to explain a topic with the goal of understanding rather than memorization, and to explain the reasoning behind…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do are to create a supportive environment, build the student’s confidence, and help them develop independent learning skills. From my experience mentoring in High school, I saw how crucial it is to tailor support to each student’s needs, not just focusing on grades but also mindset. A good tutor…

Instil in a student a love of learning; teach them how to learn and how to manage their own education.

To boost confidence and motivation. I believe that you cannot force a student to learn, but you can guide them to do their best. If the student does not wish to learn, there is not much I can do to improve their grades. But, if the students are highly motivated and willing to learn, even if their grades are below average, they can rapidly improve…

I think tutors have to have the appropriate amount of empathy to understand, not only the way they learn, but also their reason for learning. Best thing tutor can do is align his values with his student's. I think this is a way to frustrate and alienate him. I can approach a problem the way student does. This gives me an insight into where they…

Inside TottenhamTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Daniel practised NAPLAN numeracy skills by interpreting dot plots and tackling worded questions involving operations with fractions.

Year 8 student Chelsea focused on using the laws of indices to simplify expressions and applied her understanding of surds through practice quizzes and textbook review.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ava worked on solving quadratic equations by completing the square and sketched quadratic graphs using turning point form for visual reinforcement.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often avoided writing out working in algebra and long division, saying "I can do it in my head," which led to forgotten steps and confusion when checking answers.

In Year 11, a student relied heavily on her calculator for expanding and factorising exercises, making it difficult during non-calculator tests.

Another senior student's workbook layout was inconsistent—dates missing, mixed notes and questions—which made revision stressful before exams.

A Year 5 learner sometimes left homework incomplete due to a busy week; this limited opportunities for targeted feedback on tricky topics like fractions and multiplication.

Recent Achievements

A Tottenham tutor recently noticed a big shift with one high school student, Chelsea, who used to get stuck on worded problems—she now works through them independently and even organises her solutions clearly without prompting.

In another session, Sasha, also in high school, began tackling every test question instead of skipping the ones she found confusing; she's started asking clarifying questions instead of giving up.

Meanwhile, Camilla in Year 5 managed to create her first dot plot and confidently answered related questions—a leap from needing step-by-step guidance just a few weeks ago.

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 Footscray West—or at your child's school (with permission), like Dinjerra Primary School.
