A tutor influences a student in many ways. He or she contributes a lot to the personality of a student. The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to build confidence. And I believe confidence is something that is essential throughout a persons life. It's the confidence that makes one believe that they could do things…

There are a few but I think the point of a tutor is for reinforcement. There is no way that a tutor will be able to pump out as much content as a student will be able to consume from traditional school, however with the 1 on 1 nature of tuition, tutors can take topics a lot further than a teacher would for an entire class. Not only this, a tutor…

Science Tutor Garran, ACT
Through my time at university, I have found the ability to be patient is what separates my current tutors apart. A willingness to stop and answer questions, that some may be too scared to ask, has certainly improved my learning opportunities. The notion of ‘no stupid questions’ in my Power Electronics course this semester has been a great…

I think one of the most important things is friendly behaviour with students. If the tutor gets familiar with students, then students can explain their studies problem. Firstly, I love to take face to face class where I can interact with students and can know their level. Secondly, I always start with basic formulas and then slowly proceeding to…

Local Reviews

Andrew has far exceeded my expectations. He immediately established a positive rapport with my son who is feeling a much greater sense of confidence now he is getting the help and support Andrew provides. Andrew is patient and fully understands the requirements of the VCE curriculum - going above and beyond when preparing work for my son. When I asked my son what I should write in my testimonial he could not praise Andrew enough.

Inside WanniassaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Jack focused on solving quadratic equations using both factorising and the quadratic formula, practising how to apply the null law in context.

Year 9 student Sarah worked through constructing and interpreting boxplots as well as scatter plots, and tackled writing and solving inequalities with real-life examples.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ben spent his lesson on simultaneous equations using substitution methods and also practised expanding binomials alongside factorising algebraic expressions for greater fluency.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, one student had not completed any extra revision for their upcoming exam between sessions; as noted, "we need to work on building independent study as a habit," so important review opportunities were missed.

A Year 12 student arrived without specific topics prepared for tutoring and struggled to pinpoint which classwork or pattern tests needed attention—making targeted support difficult.

In Year 4, messy working and unclear formatting in word problems led to confusion when reviewing steps.

When a Year 7 student avoided writing out algebra solutions, small sign errors crept in unnoticed until feedback was given in person.

Recent Achievements

One Wanniassa tutor noticed a Year 11 student who, after initially feeling unsure about algebra, began speaking up more during sessions and now works through complex problems aloud—a big change from her earlier quiet approach.

In a recent high school maths session, another student started using index laws confidently and rarely made mistakes, showing real independence where he used to need reminders.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who once hesitated with subtraction is now enthusiastic and remembers strategies from previous lessons; last week, he solved several mental addition questions without pausing for help.

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 Erindale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Erindale College.
