There are a lot of tutors out there who know the content, but, I think, more than this, a tutor should be able to relate and tailor their teaching style to each students' needs. They should be able to understand each student as an individual and establish a space where they feel comfortable and safe enough to ask questions; to try, make mistakes,…

The most important things a tutors can do for a student is to help them with learning by giving it attention to detail and the developmental tools they need that they wouldn't be able to get in regular schooling, through either not enough resources, lack of knowledge or split attention from work, life, or play balance. I think my strengths are a…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to ensure that they feel confident in their skills and abilities.

I also believe it is important…

I think the most important thing is making the student feel comfortable enough to actually say when they don't understand something, because a lot of students just nod along even when they're lost. Through leading a team at BrewLabs I've learned that people respond a lot better when they feel supported rather than judged, and I think that applies…

I think the most important thing would be to take interest in each student. I've found that when you take interest in a student, you care about them which helps everything else fall into place. It allows you to be patient and teach them effectively until they understand, as well as a more genuine approach which tends to help them to be more…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide them with the self-confidence that they're able to achieve their goals. Having that self-confidence makes students much more willing to study and work hard because they know that the goals they have set are actually achievable and aren't an insurmountable task.…

I believe that there is no easy way in tutoring, the same as there is no easy way to get the answer. Whenever they are stuck it is our job to guide them through and companying them along. Whenever there are difficult times, give out the answers is never the way to solve the problem. I'm very patient when teaching my students, I wouldn't mind…

Inside Wantirna SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Zoey worked on rearranging algebraic expressions for graphing and solving quadratic equations, as well as reviewing LCM, factors, and long division to prepare for her non-calculator exam.

In Year 9, Amy focused on surface area of 3D objects by tackling textbook questions and practicing backchecking techniques, along with revising atoms and isotopes for an upcoming science test.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mia strengthened her understanding of financial maths concepts such as compound interest and depreciation through targeted homework review and real-world application problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student in maths often avoided writing out full working when facing unfamiliar problems, leading to jumbled steps and confusion; as one tutor noted, "her working out was sometimes incoherent because she hesitated to write unless sure."

In Year 10 financial maths, missing a single tax calculation step meant every subsequent answer was affected.

For a senior student tackling algebra and trigonometry, revision focused mainly on easy material instead of challenging questions—this limited their ability to adapt in new contexts.

During an English task, uncertainty about how to start an essay caused significant delays before any writing began.

Recent Achievements

One Wantirna South tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously missed simple marks due to untidy maths writing is now consistently setting out solutions with clear steps and correct units, which has helped avoid small but costly errors.

A Year 8 student, after struggling to rearrange algebraic expressions for several weeks, began applying the techniques independently this week and even tackled new graphing problems without prompting.

In a recent primary session, a Year 4 student who used to guess answers in long division now talks through each step aloud and checks her own work before moving on.

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 Knox Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Wantirna South Primary School.
