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. They not only teach their students, but they act as a guide and support system, helping students with their experiences to gain the most out of their academic careers as…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to allow students to attempt challenging tasks independently before providing assistance. Secondly, a tutor can support students during obstacles by offering thorough explanations and breaking down each step. Lastly, a tutor can set tailored goals and milestones for each individual…

This ensures that they continue to persist in…

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.…

Michael is good and patient with Miles.

Inside MicklehamTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Aiden focused on long division strategies and revising multiplication with the column method, practising both through targeted word problems.

Year 5 student Zara worked on fractions—comparing and adding fractions with like denominators—and was introduced to equivalent fractions using number lines.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Lily revised angles by measuring and drawing them with a protractor, as well as identifying different types of angles in real-life diagrams.

Recent Challenges

Homework completion and organization surfaced as consistent hurdles across both primary and secondary levels.

In Year 8 mathematics, one student missed a page on homework sheets, while another in Year 9 repeatedly failed to submit complete assignments; "he needs improvement in organising his worksheets," a tutor observed.

For a Year 7 learner, missing or misplaced homework sheets led to lost time during lessons, making it difficult to review mistakes.

These lapses meant time was spent searching for materials rather than consolidating concepts like long division or area of composite figures—leaving gaps that lingered into revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Mickleham noticed Haroon, a high schooler who previously hesitated to speak up when confused, now regularly asks clarifying questions during lessons on order of operations—a big step from staying quiet and guessing.

Hisham, also in high school, has started tackling fraction problems with visible enthusiasm after struggling to see their purpose; last session he volunteered to explain his reasoning out loud.

Meanwhile, a younger student showed new independence by building a 3D object alone from a 2D net without any prompting—something she'd avoided attempting alone just weeks ago.

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 Mickleham Primary School.
