Considering, my experience gained at primary and secondary school; and the first term at university- a tutor must have the ability to listen patiently and attentively to students. They must know that the power barrier between them and the student must be leveraged accordingly when the situation arises to either work as an examiner of the student…

I feel that more important than knowing how to answer questions, is having the confidence and persistence to tackle problems that arise. The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to teach them how to learn for themselves and tackle problems for themselves. This will help them gain the confidence to excel. I am very patient and am…

Teaching a student to love learning is one of the most important things I can do as a tutor. A student who is genuinely curious and motivated will always achieve better results than one who feels forced to study every day. Beyond building a love of learning, I also believe in building a student's confidence and helping them trust in their own…

Personally, i believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to work with them according to EACH specific student. From personal experience, I know that not every child absorbs information or learns the same way, some may take longer, or perhaps require a different method. I think it is vital for tutors to recognise this and…

The most important thing that I, as a tutor, can do for a student is support. To support them through whatever it is they do. To know that you have someone who is waiting to consolidate what they learned at school and help them in their understanding. Someone who reminds them that they can do anything they put their minds to and to remind…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be there for the student and understand the weak points of the student.

Students expect tutors to be their teachers, that means it's up to us to assess the learning material they need, assign any coursework for them to try and cater to a specific type of teaching for them to better understand and learn.

The most important thing a tutor can do is to not just do the work for the students, instead support and encourage the student to attempt the work.

Inside WhittleseaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Vikram focused on assessing strengths and weaknesses in English, including reading comprehension and grammar.

In Year 8, Jessica worked through fractions and decimals, tackling mixed-number calculations and basic operations using practical examples.

For Year 10, Olivia revised factorising equations—both with common factors and the difference of two squares—and also practiced solving quadratic equations by different methods to prepare for her upcoming test.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Maths, forgetting to bring key class materials meant a student could not attempt set homework or reference worked examples—"she didn't have her workbook, so we couldn't check last week's problems."

For a Year 11 Methods student, skipping written working and relying on mental calculations led to hidden arithmetic errors; as one tutor observed, "he tried solving equations in his head but missed obvious mistakes."

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner often avoided feedback on creative writing drafts, making it hard to improve narrative flow and descriptive detail. Without addressing these habits, frustration grew each session.

Recent Achievements

One Whittlesea tutor noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to speak up now clearly explains when she's stuck and even shared her own method for tackling maths problems.

A high schooler in Year 11, after struggling with factorisation, could by the end of their session accurately spot patterns and use the correct methods without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who often needed lots of reminders stayed focused through an entire lesson on improper fractions and finished all her assigned questions independently.

Local Spots for Tutoring
