Raj Aryan
Tutor Hawthorn, VIC
I think the most important thing a tutor can do is help a student feel confident in their own abilities. Learning can be tough, and sometimes all a student needs is someone to break things down in a way that makes sense to them and encourage them along the way. It’s also important to create a space where they feel comfortable asking questions…

Tutor Hawthorn, VIC
Being patient with students who may be really struggling to understand a concept or question, as a tutor it can be frustrating when a student isn’t getting something that you think is quite simple. However you have to remember back when you where first learning the concept and how complex it seemed back then, so it’s most important to view the…

Manisha
Tutor Hawthorn, VIC
Firstly, patience is essential for a tutor to enable the student to ask as many questions as necessary and ask for guidance when they are unsure. Furthermore, as a tutor, I believe that I should not always give the answer straight away if the student is unsure but rather explain the concepts in a different way to allow the student to come to the…

As a tutor, I can teach concepts and skills from a different perspective to what the student learns in a classroom. As a tutor, I get to spend a lot of time one-on-one with students, which means I can specifically understand individual needs and adjust my approach accordingly. This means that students can get the most out of their sessions with…

Raphael
Tutor Hawthorn, VIC
I think that most teachers teach based on methods they mostly understand, which I think is subjective. But different people learn differently, and I think that it is much more effective when you explain it to them in terms each of them would more likely understand in.
I personally like to help my fellow university friends by using terms from…

Hong Quan
Tutor Hawthorn, VIC
I reckon the most crucial things a tutor can do for a student is spending time with them, listening, sympathising, effectively communicating and building connections with them. School curriculum is not designed for any particular students, so many of them can't study the way they find the most suitable and easiest for them, resulting in the need…

The most important skill to be passed on is to never lose hope when no ways are seen, and to keep trying with most consistency. Only consistency can bring forth permanent results and changes. A lot of people around us are learned enough to be able to solve a math problem, but few among them can teach it to someone else, and even fewer among them…

The infulcence tutors have on a child's life is the most important thing in my opinion.

This means making tutoring fun. I believe, I have good…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is create an open and comfortable environment for their students. I believe that if a student isn't afraid to make mistakes or ask questions, they can become more confident, approach problems independently, and find better enjoyment in doing the work that they might originally find dull and tedious.…

Inside HawthornTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 4 student Emily worked on fraction operations and consolidating her multiplication tables, using hands-on practice for both.
In Year 10, Matt focused on embedding quotes effectively in English essays about 'The Golden Age' and practiced planning analytical responses to prompts using graphic organisers.
Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sam tackled quadratic equations by completing the square and applied the elimination method to solve simultaneous equations, also revisiting basic trigonometry concepts like SOH CAH TOA.
Recent Challenges
A Year 9 student showed inconsistent completion of assigned homework for English SAC revision, which limited the depth of written feedback and skill consolidation; as a tutor noted, "Matt needs to improve completing his assigned homework tasks."
In VCE English, reliance on brief plans rather than detailed mindmaps or highlighting led to weaker essay introductions and difficulty embedding evidence.
Meanwhile, a Year 7 maths student struggled with structuring working in fraction questions—"more practice is needed on fractions," the notes recorded—which slowed progress and sometimes hid small calculation errors.
Missed homework meant extra class time spent reviewing old ground instead of advancing skills.
Recent Achievements
A tutor in Hawthorn noticed that Matt, a Year 11 English student, now completes all assigned homework ahead of lessons and brings thoughtful ideas to each session. He's even started using planning tables and flash cards on his own, which wasn't the case before.
In senior maths, Will has become much more independent with graphing linear relations; he used to need step-by-step support but recently translated equations into graphs without prompting.
Meanwhile, Ziggy (Year 8) showed a big shift by reading scenes from a play aloud with expression and then volunteering his interpretation of the characters' motives.
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 City of Boroondara Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Hawthorn West Primary School.
