Tien
Tutor Cairnlea, VIC
One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to encourage them to ask questions. I find that sometimes my brother would be embarrassed to ask me to repeat a concept, so I would ask if there was anything he didn't understand and I would happily repeat myself if he wanted. This allowed him to be less afraid to ask me questions,…

In addition to it, tutors must inculcate modern ways and an open attitude to deal with students of the twenty first century. The fact that I tend to keep a strong heart and an…

I think a tutor should be obviously able to help the student academically; that is ensuring they understand the content you are teaching fully even if that means teaching them privately. Moreover, I think a tutor should be a student's net; we should be able to reassure them when they're unable to understand something in class. Tutors should be…

Local Reviews
Inside CairnleaTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 7 student Taj focused on probability concepts and practiced multiplication timetables for fluency.
For Year 8, Aashi worked through scientific notation and indices, then tackled practice with multiplying decimals to address past difficulties.
Meanwhile, Year 9 student Jason reviewed algebraic expressions and solved worded questions involving variables and equations, using real-life examples for context.
Recent Challenges
In Year 8 Maths, homework was often left incomplete, especially with chapter revision and annotating articles—this meant gaps persisted in key skills like probability.
One Year 10 student repeatedly avoided showing full working when expanding algebraic expressions; as a tutor noted, "she tried to do too much in her head and missed sign errors."
In English for Year 6, a lack of planning caused him to get stuck on what each paragraph should say, leading to frustration mid-essay.
After setbacks on worded questions in Year 11 Maths, one student lost confidence and hesitated to attempt problems without heavy guidance.
Recent Achievements
One Cairnlea tutor recently noticed a Year 9 student who had previously struggled with algebraic expressions now working through expansion questions independently, applying each step without prompting.
A Year 7 learner who used to stay quiet during sessions has started speaking up about which maths concepts feel tricky and is now quick to ask for help when needed.
In primary, a student who was often hesitant about reading comprehension began summarising passages aloud and identifying key details by herself—she finished her latest story plan with all the main points mapped out in her own words.
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 St Albans Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Cairnlea Park Primary School-Western Special Assistance Unit - Language.
