I think the most important things a tutor can do are make learning feel less stressful, build a student’s confidence, and adapt to their needs. It’s not just about explaining concepts, it’s about creating a space where they feel comfortable asking questions without fear of judgment. Everyone learns differently, so I try to adjust my…

listening to students and finding out what they want out of the sessions and how they prefer to learn. By doing so we can offer a method of learning that's customized to them as an individual and not as a class. Learning occurs in many formats and a tutor should provide a format that isn't inherently applied in schools - aiding in the…

Besides from general knowledge of the subjects, understanding the strengths as well as weaknesses of the students is a must for personal tutors. We can develop the most effective way to teach if we are fully aware of these factors. Also, one of the most important things a tutor can do is to be patient and considerate with their students. This way…

I believe, more than anything else, that a tutoring space should feel judgement free for a student. A student should not feel hesitant to ask questions or to clarify a concept. In fact, I believe it to be a good sign if a student is able to outright say that my explanation is not what they need or understand. Fostering such a safe and trusting…

Inside Wandana HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Austin practiced ordering and comparing fractions with like denominators, then explored the meaning of ratios using unit conversions.

In Year 9, Emma tackled solving simultaneous equations through both substitution and elimination methods, working through textbook examples step by step.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Jack focused on index laws—applying rules to simplify expressions—and began revision on surds for extra challenge.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 English, one student hesitated to start essay introductions and conclusions, sharing that "getting words down is hard" until a list of sentence starters was introduced—this blank-page anxiety slowed exam practice.

Meanwhile, in Year 9 Maths, forgetting to bring both books and calculator home made it difficult to track class progress or reinforce learning from Pythagoras lessons.

In Year 7, a reliance on mental calculation led a student to skip using the calculator for complex tasks; as noted, "she doesn't have to do all maths in her head," but this habit caused confusion with longer problems.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Wandana Heights noticed one Year 11 student who used to hesitate with tricky algebra questions now actively asks for harder problems and works through them with minimal guidance.

In Year 8, another student—who previously struggled to plan English text responses—completed a full introduction, conclusion, and body outline independently for the first time.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner surprised her tutor by tackling complex fraction addition with far greater accuracy than before; she even explained her steps aloud after having trouble verbalising her process last term.

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