I believe that the most important thing a tutor can provide for a student is a safe and supporting space, where they can feel free to ask questions and feel that they are learning. Students must feel comfortable to better their learning around their tutor. Furthermore, tutors should provide their students with motivation and inspiration. I am a…

A tutor should be a mentor for students. It is the responsibility of a tutor to provide subject matter and help a student excel in the subject while understanding the student's standard, capabilities and needs. I can make a student independent and help the student for his/her personal growth too. The most important things a tutor can do for a…

Psychology Tutor Templestowe, VIC
Most importantly, the tutor should be able to help the student achieve their desired academic results whilst under the tutor's tutelage, as this is the whole purpose of being a tutor. However, it is almost equally important to instill confidence in a student, that they will feel comfortable enough to step out of their comfort zones. More often…

Psychology Tutor Briar Hill, VIC
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is understand their true needs. Sometimes students need more than just a teacher who is repeating themselves to help them understand things. Tutors should be trying different techniques and approaches that better suit that student, and understand the weaknesses of that student to better help…

Ultimately, a successful tutor should bolster their students' confidence and make them realize and maximize their academic potential.

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student is support them academically, as well as personally. I believe that it is vital to approach each student holistically, catering for each individual in accordance with their personal needs. Secondly, I believe it is important that students are supported according to their own goals,…

Inside Diamond CreekTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Emily worked on algebraic expansion and solving equations, then moved into trigonometry basics by calculating missing side lengths using diagrams.

For Year 10, Indie focused on key topics for a high-stakes maths test, including polynomials and differentiation techniques.

Meanwhile, Year 11 sessions with Nathan included integration—specifically estimating areas under curves—and revision of logarithms and circular functions to strengthen his understanding before exams.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 maths, a student's lack of confidence held her back from applying algebra to new or unfamiliar problems—"she hesitated to start unless she was absolutely certain," as one tutor noted.

When faced with worded application questions in measurement, she often struggled to extract the relevant information and organize her working, leading to incomplete solutions.

In Year 11, difficulty remembering formulas for gradient and midpoint sometimes meant extra time spent searching through notes instead of building fluency.

During public speaking tasks in Year 6, nerves about planning led to short, underdeveloped speeches that didn't fully meet criteria.

Recent Achievements

One Diamond Creek tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 11 student who previously avoided asking questions about logarithms—this week, she brought her own list of doubts and worked through each one independently as they discussed the topic.

A Year 9 student who used to rush graphing tasks now pauses to check her method for finding gradients and y-intercepts, leading to fewer mistakes in classwork.

In primary, a Year 4 student has started explaining out loud how she breaks down 3D shapes into their nets, something she was too shy to attempt before.

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 Diamond Valley Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sacred Heart School.
