English Tutor Clayton, VIC
As a tutor I believe that the most important thing is to be able to reach out for me to assist them with their works because an immediate feedback can make a difference in the performance. Providing extra material for students are also a very essential part of tutoring as it enables student to expand their knowledge and allows them to perform…

English Tutor Bentleigh East, VIC
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is give them the confidence they need to sit an exam and believe that they have the skills required to answer the questions in front of them. I have had a number of students come to me with issues relating to this, along the lines of 'I just had no idea what to do.' I aim to equip my students…

English Tutor Dandenong, VIC
Being organised. It's important to know everything at hand, but without organisation and confidence in your work, everything will fall apart- even though you know and understand the content. Being patient, empathic and understanding. I am also creative and like to communicate ideas through different ideas, and enjoy assisting…

English Tutor Clayton, VIC
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to ignite a passion and 'vision' for learning. Our current society tends to view academia as a means to an end as opposed to an ends in itself, and if a tutor awakens a love for the subject in his student, then they have succeeded. By doing so, the student becomes more engaged and receptive…

English Tutor Beaumaris, VIC
In addition to increasing the student's confidence in his/her academic prowess through his/her understanding of a difficult concept, a tutor may also help incite the innate curiosity of a life-long learner. Likewise, not only does a tutor help achieve and maintain academic excellence, but also build sustainable life-long skills that may aid the…

Steven

English Tutor Oakleigh South, VIC
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them build small skills which they are able to use in their lives. For example, helping a student open up means that they have developed that skill which will help them to open up to their teachers perhaps at school etc. I believe that the role of a teacher is to help students grow…

Inside BraesideTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Grace focused on adding fractions with different denominators and expressing percentage change, using visual aids to clarify concepts.

In Year 10, Jack worked on factorising trinomials—including both monic and non-monic forms—and used the quadratic formula to solve challenging equations.

For VCE Further Maths, Mia revised matrices through practice worksheets and tackled financial maths and data analysis questions aligned with her current school topics.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 Physics student relied on prompts to recall electromagnetism formulas; as one tutor noted, "he only vaguely remembered equations unless shown," which made tackling unfamiliar problems slow and uncertain.

In Year 11 Methods, another student attempted all steps in their head when rearranging algebraic equations, but skipped showing working—leading to hidden sign errors and lost marks.

A younger student in Year 5 found switching between Bitpaper and Zoom on the iPad distracting, erasing annotations mid-explanation instead of focusing on content.

These process obstacles left students second-guessing themselves during assessments and slowed progress through more advanced topics.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Braeside noticed a real shift with one Year 10 student who previously struggled to connect algebraic concepts—she now independently completes quadratic factorisation and even plugs her solutions directly into equations without prompting.

In Year 12 physics, another student who was hesitant about applying formulas is now confidently answering questions involving magnetic fields, accurately using the left-hand rule and explaining split ring commutators.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student has begun finishing all her homework with neat formatting and started back-checking her own answers—a big step up from last term's reluctance to review her work.

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 Kingston Information & Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Louis de Montfort's School.
