English Tutor Doncaster East, VIC
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to inspire them to aim higher than where they currently are and to act as a guide towards that goal. It is also important for us to be there for them when they need us but not spoonfeeding them so that they can learn for themselves. I am disciplined and would instil the same sense of…

English Tutor Vermont, VIC
I think that the tutor acts as a mentor for the student. In this role, the tutor should encourage the students to think critically in order to find answers to their questions. By providing the means to discover the answers for themselves, the tutor ensures that the student does not merely address the 'what' of the question but is also able to…

Allowing students to become independent thinkers and restorning their self confidence is one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student. This means while you guide them in filling gaps in knowledge and breaking down difficult concepts, the tutor is able to build these fundamental skills in the student. In instilling these skills, I…

I believe that a tutor needs to communicate with the student about their needs. I think that if the student and the tutor communicate well and both parties understand each other, then it will help the student tremendously. They will be willing to ask questions and participate during the lesson. I am an approachable person. I feel like my passion…

A tutor should be able to explain topics in a variety of different ways in order to best suit the students’ needs. They should be versatile and adaptable to students with all backgrounds and prior understandings.

Changing a student's attitude to enjoy the subject and want to learn more about the subject is definitely the most important thing a great tutor can do. A good attitude is key to succeeding in anything, not just school subjects. Strengths: - I am passionate, love teaching and mentoring, and familiar with the subject - I am very patient and I…

Local Reviews

They have been amazing! They paired my young daughter with a great tutor who has already built her skills and confidence. For the first time my daughter loves doing math with her tutor! By having the sessions in my house has also really helped them build a positive relationship and means I don't need to be rushing around after school. It's early days, but I'm positive this was the best decision we could've made for our daughter.

Inside WarranwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Alex focused on adding and multiplying fractions with different denominators, and also practised converting fractions to decimals.

For Year 9, Sam reviewed how to convert between fractions, percentages, and decimals in simplest form, along with simplifying expressions using the distributive law and writing numbers in scientific notation.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Emily worked through simplifying surds and rationalising denominators, using step-by-step examples for each calculation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 mathematics, one student tended to copy worked examples rather than attempt problems independently; as noted, "needs to try working independently and thinking actively instead of just waiting and copying the solutions." This habit limited true understanding during algebra tasks.

A Year 10 student struggled with organization, often bringing large volumes of notes but rarely referencing them efficiently in SAC preparation—leaving key information unused during practice.

For a Year 11 methods lesson, an over-reliance on calculators meant steps in simultaneous equations were skipped; errors went unnoticed until review.

In a Year 4 arithmetic session, messy written work made it hard to follow fraction calculations.

Recent Achievements

One Warranwood tutor noticed a real shift in a Year 9 student who, after struggling to connect formulas to worded measurement problems, now reliably selects the right units and strategies without prompting.

In a senior session, Alex independently recognised mistakes from past tests and used those insights to solve new exam questions—something she hadn't done before when she'd freeze on unfamiliar problems. This independent error recognition marks a major breakthrough.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student recently surprised her tutor by asking specific questions about homework rather than waiting for help, showing new initiative during sessions.

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