Geography Tutor Newport, VIC
I consider building confidence in a student highly important when tutoring. In my experience as a teacher, students often value one on one teaching where available. Being able to focus on one student and their needs within their own education, builds a more confident student whether in their work, or when seeking assistance from teachers. Building…

The most important thing a tutor can do is assess their students and the underlying tutoring strategy according to the needs of their students. This means understanding the strengths of their students and helping them leverage those strengths while also giving them useful resources to work on their weaker areas to achieve good results.

Some notions are easy to comprehend. Others are just extremely difficult to understand. Many individuals struggle with abstract ideas, but some students may not understand ideas that you may find simple. Teachers should be willing to explain anything, no matter how challenging they perceive it to be. They should be able to describe these hard…

A tutor has to be a customized teacher for every individual student. One is approached as a tutor to provide special teaching services to a child. So most importantly, presenting information and getting students to engage with content in a variety of ways should be the aim of a tutor which can not only improve their chances of understanding but…

Guide them. Teachers are there for cueing the child and help them enhance their talent and intelligence. Tutors can act as a comfort zone for a child where child can talk about his likes/dislikes. A child can then explore different fields before choosing the one. Being a patient person, I believe it is my biggest strength as a tutor. Also, I have…

Haven't looked back, ezy maths has really propelled my child as far as her grades at school. Our maths Tutor has been fantastic. My child felt comfortable with him from the beginning and has been broadening and strengthening her knowledge ever since. With regular feedback from Tutor you feel you are always in the loop in relation to child's development.

Inside AltonaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Madison focused on similar triangles and practiced trigonometry and Pythagoras' Theorem with exam-style questions, while also exploring compound interest as part of a class validation task.

In Year 10, Liam worked on consolidating his skills in applying Pythagoras to worded problems and using trigonometric ratios to find unknown side lengths in triangles.

Meanwhile, another Year 10 student, Ella, covered bearings in trigonometry and revisited measurement concepts including volume and surface area calculations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student, when solving worded trigonometry problems, tended to avoid writing out steps and key words, making it harder to spot where misunderstandings occurred. This meant errors often went unnoticed until review time.

In Year 8 algebra, over-reliance on the calculator for identifying gradients in linear functions led to confusion about core concepts; as one tutor put it, "he could find the answer but struggled to explain how he got there."

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student often forgot to bring completed homework, leaving gaps in practice that slowed progress with times tables and division tasks.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Altona noticed that a Year 9 student, after initially hesitating to ask for help, began actively seeking clarification on trigonometric ratios and then independently solved for unknown side lengths using SIN, COS, and TAN.

Another high school student who used to skip steps with linear graphs is now confidently plotting points and explaining the meaning of rise over run without prompting—she even developed her own summary sheet for an upcoming SAC.

In primary, one student who would guess times tables has started working them out aloud step by step, moving from 10Ă—3 backwards and discovering new patterns on her own.

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 Altona Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Mary's School.
