A tutor and a teacher have similar duties, in that they both teach their students. However, the main difference between a tutor and a teacher is that a tutor is also a mentor.

The best thing a tutor could create is confidence in what they are learning in, and to along the way churn a love for learning. If its a high achieving student, tutors will enhance and better extrapolate the students potential, on top of school. If its a struggling child, then a block by block process going through everything should be achieved.…

Yen was amazing.
Michele

Inside KalkalloTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Maryam focused on mastering complex numbers, including working through extended response questions and tackling some Year 12-level problems.

In Year 11, Ajay practised circular functions in Maths Methods, covering applications and differentiation of trigonometric expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Neha worked through Physics concepts such as momentum and energy by solving practical problems involving forces and motion.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 Maths, a tutor noticed "she is a bit weak in basics," which made new topics slower to grasp and meant extra time was spent backtracking rather than building confidence with current material.

A Year 11 student working on complex numbers showed he could recall formulas but often "got stuck finishing the answer"—mapping out steps on paper, instead of holding them mentally, would help avoid confusion midway through problems.

In senior Physics, one student kept up-to-date but rarely practiced unfamiliar question types; this limited exposure meant real exams could feel unexpectedly tricky or unfamiliar.

Recent Achievements

One Kalkallo tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to stay silent when stuck; now, she openly asks for help and attempts new question types without prompting.

In a recent high school session, another student who previously hesitated with binomial distributions adapted quickly to the fundamentals and even tackled related calculator problems independently.

Meanwhile, a primary student initially struggled to grasp unit conversions but now confidently applies this skill to real-world energy questions—he explained the conversion process back to the tutor and solved examples on his own.

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 Craigieburn Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Gilgai Plains Primary School.
