Software Dev Tutor Highton, VIC
I think the most important thing a tutor can do is listen to the student as much as teach them. If a student has any complaints, maybe approach the content differently, try to reach a compromise, or just find a better way to communicate that you want them to improve, and, most importantly, that they can. I have a good communication experience,…

Being Non-judgmental with a desire to help; does not make assumptions about students; treats all students as individuals who want to learn and have the ability to learn no matter what their personal background or circumstances are. Encourages independence: You do not want the student to rely on you at all times. Let them know that they must put…

In the short term, help them get over the current difficulties they're facing. But in the long term, help them develop the skills to deal with future difficulties without a tutor being needed. I am very passionate about mathematics. I have a methodically logical mind, but also a lot of appreciation for the beauty of the subject, which I believe I…

I believe understanding a student on a deeper level and giving what he/ she needs. That could be motivation to move ahead , assurance of being there with them , confidence to explore interests and lastly a friend so that they can openly tell if they are not understanding something. I have always loved kids and I completely understand there are…

Software Dev Tutor Hamlyn Heights, VIC
A tutor needs to analyse and understand the way a specific student learns, and cater for that. While a tutors ability to explain a problem is important, I believe the ability to explain a problem in a variety of different ways, while also showing a student that needing help with school is completely normal, is of upmost importance. I understand…

To listen, and understand why a student isn't understanding a topic. Everyone is different, and tutors need to be able to adapt to everyone's own needs, and be able to find creative ways to teach them in ways they will actually learn. It is also important to ensure students go back to previous topics after learning them, to ensure long-term…

Bao was very engaging with my son and got to work straight away, assessing his strengths and where the work should focus. My son really enjoys working with Bao and reports that he already is gaining in confidence after only 2 sessions. Working on Year 12 VCE Mathematics Methods.

Inside StonehavenTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Aria explored how to convert between millimetres and centimetres using a unit conversion table, and quickly found ratios between different units.

In Year 10, Phoebe focused on revising indices in preparation for her upcoming exam, tackling practice problems to build fluency.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ethan worked through compound interest calculations across a variety of questions, applying the formula in financial scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4 maths, one student's division work often showed incomplete steps and missing working for fractions, which made it hard to identify where understanding broke down—she forgot steps of doing long division and needed more exercises.

In a Year 9 English session, starting essays proved stressful; he hesitated to get words down, leading to blank pages and lost time. As a tutor noted: "He gets stuck starting an essay—not only did he tell me this but it also happened when we were doing the introduction and conclusion." This meant ideas stayed in his head instead of building momentum on paper.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Stonehaven noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with exponential growth problems now tackles compound interest questions with fewer prompts, thanks to regular practice.

In English, a Year 11 student has started volunteering insightful quotes and character analysis for their play studies, whereas previously they'd wait for guidance before sharing ideas.

For a younger learner, simplifying tricky ratio questions is no longer intimidating—she recently broke down a complex algebra problem independently after struggling to start on her own just weeks ago.

Last session, she finished all ten problems without errors.

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 Highton Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Rollins Primary School-Batesford Campus.
