I consider the most important role of a tutor is to grow students confidence in subjects via encouragement. In order to strengthen students knowledge and abilities, a tutor should ensure that the student believes they can improve their understanding of a subject and trusts that their extra effort does pay off. Hence, by creating an environment…

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…

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.
