Patience, I believe, is a strong attribute a tutor must hold. Some students may not comprehend subjects as easily as yourself or others may find them. In order for the student to be able to work through the problem at their own pace and feel comfortable to speak openly with the tutor, the student must ave faith that the tutor will take the time to…

Provide an amiable and respectful environment wherein the student is comfortable enough to openly raise doubts and seek follow-up without any fear of judgement/ignorance. I believe I have honed several skills that enhance the skillset of a tutor apart from subject knowledge like: 1. Confident and open communication 2. Strong interpersonal…

Build confidence – Helping students believe in themselves is just as important as helping them understand the subject. Create a safe learning space – A tutor should make students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. Adapt to the student’s needs – Every student learns differently, so it’s important to be flexible…

The most important thing for a tutor would be to help the student in any way possible, not only academically, but also, in life. Wherever possible, the tutor must help the students by sharing their own experiences and making sure that the student ends up a well disciplined and focused individual. One of my strengths as a tutor is I can explain a…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for students is to give them the confidence to believe in their abilities in order for them to view themselves as capable enough to learn new things, work hard and perform their best. This starts with the tutor identifying the student's area of need and working hard alongside them to improve it.…

A tutor needs to be able to inspire a student to strive and succeed in their chosen field, while still maintaining a personal, friendly relationship with them. A tutor must help the student to understand the coursework, but more than that must teach the student how to think (not just what to think) and how to apply that knowledge in many…

The most important things a tutor can do are to show the students the ropes, and help them when needed but not do it all for them. The role of a tutor is ultimately to support and aid the student's learning journey, not to dominate it, which would lead to the student not being able to actually learn anything. My strengths as a tutor lie in my…

Inside FyansfordTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Saanvi worked on comparing and ordering fractions with the same denominator, interpreted fraction meanings in real-life contexts, and practised finding ratios using unit conversions.

For Year 10, Phoebe focused on revising index laws and applying them to exam-style questions.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Tom tackled exponential growth and decay as new content and solved additional problems involving irrational numbers.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student, when working on quadratic factorising, often relied on notes rather than recalling rules independently; as one tutor observed, "she needed reminders for each step instead of trying from memory."

In a senior session, another student avoided surface area worded problems, choosing to repeat familiar exponential drills instead—this meant less growth in multi-step reasoning.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner guessed division answers rather than showing working, which hid small errors and slowed progress with remainders.

Across both primary and high school sessions, unfinished practice questions sometimes left concepts only partially reinforced by the end of the lesson.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Fyansford recently noticed some real turning points with students at different year levels.

In Year 9, a student who used to freeze up over large numbers tackled complex ratio problems without hesitation and even started coming up with creative algebra solutions on her own.

During a high school session on exponential growth and decay, another student went from confusion about compound interest to solving practice questions independently—she now requests tougher examples for extra challenge.

Meanwhile, a younger student who previously lost focus during maths sessions has begun showing steady attention and finishes bookwork before asking what's next.

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 Geelong West Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Hamlyn Banks Primary School.
