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…

A tutor should motivate and encourage students to try their hardest in their studies, to help build up a resilient mindset as they learn. I am passionate about learning and am interested in science and maths myself. I have loved exploring these passions further while studying a Bachelor of Engineering, and this will help me relate to and motivate…

The most important things a tutor can do are build a student’s confidence, create a safe space for questions, and teach in a way that suits their learning style. I know how competitive and burdensome academics can be, especially for students in high achieving environments ( e.g Melbourne high), so I believe being a pillar of understanding and…

For me i guess a tutor is not just there to teach a simple or complex topic from a specific subject but a tutor can be helpful in guiding what career a student can opt and values like respect for elders and for their own self which i guess are way more important in life than any subject or topic. My strength is that i encourage students to learn a…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do is adapt their teaching style to fit each student’s individual needs. Every child learns differently, so it’s important to be flexible and find the best approach for them. As a swim teacher, I’ve often had to adjust how I explain or demonstrate things depending on the child’s age,…

I think the most improtant thing as a tutor is to answer the student's question as best as you can, and to make sure they can understand. And we should also encourage our student to try, even if they get the wrong answers, because practice makes the perfect. I'm very patience, and easy to communicate, and I can figure out different ways to explain…

Like I briefly mentioned earlier, I think it is important to look at being a mentor rather than a teacher. It is a far more personal and direct experience working with one or maybe a few students at a time rather than an entire classroom, so it is vital to establish actual relationships with your students and ensure that they can apply the work…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to believe in them. When a child's role model believes in them they begin to believe in themselves and, I believe, that is the first step to accomplishing great things. If a child believes that they have the ability to do something they are more inclined to put more effort…

Inside Wonga ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Baylee worked on converting between mixed and improper fractions, as well as finding percentages of whole numbers by expressing them as fractions and multiplying.

In Year 10, Theo focused on English comparative essay skills, including structuring introductions and body paragraphs for Section B (using The Hate Race and Charlie's Country), and grouping evidence to develop strong arguments.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Cameron practised creative writing responses for Station Eleven, exploring how to plan ideas around characters and themes before expanding drafts for his upcoming SAC.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 English student hesitated to write down ideas, worrying too much about perfect phrasing, which meant he struggled to transfer his thoughts to the page. This led to paragraphs that lacked depth and left little time for editing.

In VCE English, not memorising enough quotes also limited evidence used in essays—planning and quote recall need more routine practice.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 maths student had messy long division layouts and sometimes forgot where answers belonged on the page, causing confusion during problem-solving.

When practicing fractions, skipping working steps resulted in small errors that took extra time to fix mid-lesson.

Recent Achievements

A Wonga Park tutor noticed that Cameron, a Year 11 student, now asks clarifying questions during English sessions rather than staying quiet when confused—he recently applied this by discussing persuasive techniques in a new text.

In Year 10, Theo has started grouping evidence and forming his own analysis in essay planning, where previously he would just rephrase material; last session he successfully built paragraphs around both main and minor characters.

Meanwhile, Elsie in Year 4 has moved from struggling with carrying and borrowing in vertical addition to confidently adding two- and three-digit numbers together by the end of her lesson.

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 Wonga Park Primary School.
