Tutoring to me is about ensuring the student can feel comfortable in their understanding and are not afraid to ask for help, and can do so without any judgement. In the past I have known school teachers to somewhat look down on students for lack of comprehension around maths problems and will aim to ensure that no student feels this way and will…

Some of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is ensuring that the student knows the content that has been taught. Also make sure that you are listening to the student and try to minimise their weaknesses and maximise their strengths. As a tutor, my strengths are being confident and only speaking what I know of. I will only teach…

1. The tutor should be open minded and let the student show any problems in their homework or tests etc. 2. I can be assertive, but not authoritative.

Naturally, a tutor's main priority is to provide profound and thorough knowledge through clear communication. I believe that while this is nuclear to the role, this teaching can only be achieved if the tutor also carries other accompanying qualities. This includes patience and listening, aforementioned, and trust. As a tutor, it is inevitable that…

Most importantly, the tutor should be able to help the student achieve their desired academic results whilst under the tutor's tutelage, as this is the whole purpose of being a tutor. However, it is almost equally important to instill confidence in a student, that they will feel comfortable enough to step out of their comfort zones. More often…

Listen! The most important thing a tutor should do for a student is to just take a step back and listen to the questions/concerns of their students.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to inspire them to aim higher than where they currently are and to act as a guide towards that goal. It is also important for us to be there for them when they need us but not spoonfeeding them so that they can learn for themselves. I am disciplined and would instil the same sense of…

Ivana has been helping, and sent through some good notes and concepts for him to view.
Fiona, Warrandyte

Inside Warrandyte SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student worked on adding and multiplying fractions with different denominators, as well as converting fractions to decimals.

For Year 9, Sarah practiced simplifying expressions involving surds and rationalising denominators.

In Year 10, Daniel reviewed the discriminant to determine the number of roots for quadratics and solved quadratic equations using the quadratic formula, also practicing simplification of surds and indices.

Recent Challenges

Needs to try working independently and thinking actively instead of just waiting and copying the solutions. This slowed their confidence in tackling unfamiliar arithmetic.

In Year 11, one student relied heavily on notes during matrix operations and struggled when asked to solve without help; messy layout also made reviewing errors difficult.

A senior Methods student brought an excessive bundle of notes into revision sessions, making it hard to locate key formulas quickly—leaving them pressed for time during test planning.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Warrandyte South recently noticed a big shift for one Year 11 student who started openly acknowledging mistakes during revision, rather than feeling flustered or rushing ahead—she now stops to reflect and then applies new strategies from past lessons.

Another high school student, Sanjeev, had previously hesitated to ask questions but has begun raising his own points of confusion when tackling matrices; once explained, he quickly applies the concepts himself.

In Year 6, Tyler showed newfound independence by completing two and a half worksheets in one session without reminders or prompts.

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 Warrandyte Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Donvale Christian College - Hall Road Campus.
