The most vital thing that an english tutor must do for a student is develop a special teaching method for each individual or class. Knowing a little bit of psychology as well as the students emotions and way of thinking can make a great impact on their way of learning. Besides, researching for new fun teaching methods as well as reviewing the…

I believe the most important thing an english tutor can do is create a space where the student feels completely comfortable being themselves. They should be able to openly say what they do and don’t understand without fear of judgment. This honesty is what allows us to help them in the best way possible. Beyond that, a tutor should always aim to…

A tutor should be knowledgeable to be able to address all concerns of a student and check when unable to immediately answer a query. Additionally an english tutor should be easy to talk to, allowing for untrained conversations between student and tutor.

Local Reviews

Tutoring seems to be going well. I think both Matthew and Abbey are starting to settle into a routine. Abbey has started to apply some of the methods Matthew has shown her to school work. She has come home from school a couple of times now, saying she was asked a question during maths time and got it right. Which, of course, she was very happy about! Within the next few weeks, I will receive Abbey’s report for semester 1. I will show Matt, so he has even more understanding of her needs. I’m looking forward to seeing what they achieve in the coming months.

Inside SeaholmeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Madison worked on consolidating skills in Pythagoras' theorem and solving worded problems involving side lengths, as well as applying trigonometric ratios to find unknown sides in triangles.

For Year 8, Rohan focused on expanding and factorising binomial expressions using distribution methods, along with factorising by grouping.

In Year 5, Emily practised rounding decimals and rounding numbers to significant figures for improved accuracy in calculations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student often relied on a calculator to identify gradients and intercepts, which limited her grasp of linear equations—"she could solve for x when y=0 but needed the calculator for reassurance."

In Year 12, one learner hesitated to show algebraic working, sometimes erasing steps rather than leaving mistakes visible; this made it harder to catch sign errors in factorisation.

For a Year 5 student, untidy written work during division tasks led to misaligned digits and confusion.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 struggled to keep track of materials and occasionally forgot completed homework, causing last-minute stress before lessons.

Recent Achievements

One Seaholme tutor noted that Aida, a Year 11 student, moved from feeling uncertain with linear graphs to confidently recognising and plotting them using the y=mx+c rule; she also started developing her own plan for tackling upcoming assessments.

In another session, Madison (Year 10) showed new independence by asking targeted questions about trigonometry, then applied trig ratios herself to find unknown angles—something she previously hesitated to attempt without guidance.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once guessed at times tables now talks through problems aloud and works out new multiplication facts by building from ones she already knows.

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 Altona Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Seaholme Primary School.
