Biology Tutor Brunswick West, VIC
Empathy: Understand how the student is feeling or understood a particular concept based on their behavioural and body language cues. This is because most students do not give explicit feedback. Understanding the student's learning pace: Every student is unique and have their own pace of learning. As a tutor you need to adapt to that. I am…

Treat each student as an individual person. The same methods of tutoring might not apply on the other. Moreover patience is necessary. Tutors should maintain a pace comfortable for the student. Tutors should be humble enough to admit if they don't know few answers and should be able to research and provide the answers to the student. I learn…

I believe that a good tutor has the the ability to help students build confidence for the classroom, and inspire them to be the best that they can be. Another thing that is important to me is not belittling the student or making them feel "stupid" for not understanding, but instead relating to them and helping them find a different way to solve…

Studying techniques, creating good habits and of course, feedback for improvements! These are the important aspects that a tutor should show their students. There is much more to learning than parroting back facts - information needs to absorbed, regurgitated, reused in a practical sense. I have much hands-on experience in using my chosen skills -…

I believe be able to help students in study is one important thing. However helping them emotionally and in life could be essential for them. As they might have had a bad day at school or didn’t get good marks in exams. There’s few things I believe that’s more important than study. I believe I can help kids understanding a concept during…

The most important thing to keep in mind when tutoring in my opinion is to help them gain confidence & enjoyment in the subject. If a student believes they are bad at a subject, they often won't try as hard because they view it as pointless. Confirmation bias can also lead to only noticing when they make mistakes, meaning they won't recognise the…

My approach is to pinpoint their strengths, address any gaps, and equip them with…

I think the most significant thing that a tutor can do is to instill confidence in the student, make them able to learn, and independent learners. It's not providing them with the answers but making them see the 'why' about things. A good tutor listens, is attuned to the way of learning of the student, and gets them at ease asking questions and…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to listen and understand. Students who are strugglings with certain subjects might not actually be bad at the subjects but rather they might not have had proper guidance from their teachers or they do not have a strong foundation, or they are just not studying in the right method.

Firstly, a tutor has to be able to understand the student's needs and then personalise a learning plan/ style that works for the student - one size does not fit all! Secondly, the tutor needs to guide the student not get them to parrot generic question answers. It's about building the students confidence up, through positive encouragement, and…

As a tutor, I think it's important to be there for them. Learning loads of new concepts almost every second day can be overwhelming and with that, all students have their strengths and weaknesses. Thus as a tutor it would be a good measure to know their strengths and weaknesses and work with them through their weaknesses and add them to the list…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is to wear students' shoes, which means to understand their strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles. Once we recognise how each student learns best, we can adapt our explanations and materials to support them more effectively. I used to struggle with some of these subjects myself, which helps me…

It definitely has to be creating passion within a student for a subject that they are struggling with. As a newly graduated student, I understand how crushing and demotivating a difficult subject can be. In addition, receiving tutoring in a subject you have no passion for, is terrible for their learning and mental health. Thus I think that the…

Local Reviews

Exceptional tutoring from the young lady we had for out granddaughter who was struggling in Maths.. 6 weeks later she passed her Maths. Thank You to all the staff who made everything so easy.
Michele, Avondale Heights

Inside Avondale HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ned focused on spelling revision, proofreading his creative writing drafts, and identifying sentence fragments versus complete sentences.

In Year 8, Ella practised solving linear equations by substituting variables and worked on multiplying positive and negative numbers.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex explored nuclear physics concepts and completed revision of motion topics in preparation for assessments.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Physics, forgetting key definitions and formulas led to unclear notes—one tutor observed, "notes could be made a bit more clear," making revision less effective.

A Year 8 student struggled with organization: missing or incomplete homework meant that class time had to be spent revisiting basics instead of moving forward.

In Year 5 Maths, a lack of consistent at-home practice resulted in frequent confusion during lessons and slow progress on multiplication recall.

When motivation dipped before holidays, as one tutor noted, "she got sidetracked with her phone," leading to missed revision opportunities and forgotten content by the next session.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Avondale Heights recently noticed a big shift with one high school student, Ella, who began emailing ahead for extra help and now independently tackles equation problems—something she once found intimidating.

In another session, Matthew, also in high school, showed real improvement on his vectors assignment; after reviewing topics he'd struggled with before, he was able to confidently work through exam-style questions.

Meanwhile, a younger student who previously hesitated to try new strategies was heard quietly counting out loud while solving maths problems—an encouraging sign of her growing willingness to experiment with different learning methods.

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 Avondale Heights Library & Learning Centre—or at your child's school (with permission), like Avondale Primary School.
