Science Tutor Glebe, TAS
I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to create a safe and encouraging learning environment, build the student’s confidence, and help them develop independent learning skills. Beyond explaining content, a tutor should listen carefully, be patient, and adapt their teaching to the student’s needs. By doing so, a…

Science Tutor Sandy Bay, TAS
A tutor needs to help the students understand the concepts and the "why" behind the problem. This allows them to be able to solve problems on their own and increase their confidence. Creating a judgment-free and supportive environment, where students can ask questions and mistakes are not punished, is essential for a tutor to help a student…

Ensure they meet there every need and ensure a student is enjoying their learning, because if there not enjoying they won’t do well. Being polite and patient with students is crucial as it may take a while for them to understand but encouraging them and having their back will bring out their confidence and it will show in their results aswell.…

Science Tutor Lenah Valley, TAS
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make the subject matter they are teaching enjoyable to learn. This is important because learning should be something we actively engage in and if a tutor can make it so the students seek out learning more readily then they have already succeeded in some sense. As a tutor my strengths are…

Local Reviews

We are very happy with Ashlin and the help she has given our son so far. She has been professional to deal with, flexible and generous with her time. Our son has only had a few a sessions but already feels more confident in his maths knowledge and ability. He said he really enjoys his tutoring sessions and is looking forward to the next one! Very happy with Ashlin and progress so far.

Inside MorningtonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Cameron worked on identifying adverbs and constructing creative sentences, as well as brainstorming ideas for a book-related essay.

Year 11 student Aimee focused on balancing equations and stoichiometry calculations, including mole-mass conversions, then moved to revising key concepts in Organic Chemistry using practice SACs.

Year 12 student Charli covered the adaptive immune system and evolution topics by answering relevant exam questions and reviewing class notes to consolidate her understanding ahead of assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student in English often hesitated to begin creative writing tasks, stalling due to self-doubt and "avoiding the writing task at bay," as one tutor noted. This led to incomplete drafts or delayed progress, especially when tackling personal pieces.

In VCE Chemistry, a Year 12 student regularly overlooked showing full working and labelling units during calculations, resulting in errors that could have been caught with clearer written steps.

For a Year 8 English learner, confusion over sentence structure was compounded by not revisiting marked-up corrections independently—missed opportunities for deeper learning lingered into subsequent lessons.

Recent Achievements

One Mornington tutor noticed a big shift in Aimee, a senior student, who now tackles unfamiliar chemistry problems independently before their session and openly pinpoints areas she wants to strengthen—previously, she'd hesitate or wait for guidance.

Charli, also in high school, recently began proactively highlighting her weaker spots during sessions and now asks targeted questions to clarify difficult biology concepts instead of quietly moving on.

Meanwhile, Cameron (Year 7) completed all adverb questions quickly and with full confidence—a leap from earlier sessions where they needed reassurance—and then drafted a creative story using feedback to improve grammar and punctuation.

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 State Library of Tasmania—or at your child's school (with permission), like MacKillop Catholic College.
