While a tutor the ultimately needs to improve a students understanding of a topic, an overlooked part of their job is providing a structured for a student to learn outside of tutoring sessions. I am good at breaking down concepts into a form that a person can…

Understanding what they understand and don't. If you don't adapt accordingly, not only will it take longer, but even if you can help them understand, you won't foster a sense of confidence in the student for further studies. Adaptability and a deeper understanding of the subject matter I'm teaching, which lets me approach problems from different…

Tutoring to me is about ensuring the student can feel comfortable in their understanding and are not afraid to ask for help, and can do so without any judgement. In the past I have known school teachers to somewhat look down on students for lack of comprehension around maths problems and will aim to ensure that no student feels this way and will…

Some of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is ensuring that the student knows the content that has been taught. Also make sure that you are listening to the student and try to minimise their weaknesses and maximise their strengths. As a tutor, my strengths are being confident and only speaking what I know of. I will only teach…

To be patient, understanding and always willing to go back to the basics and refresh their memory and to get the work to fit together. But mostly the tutor must be someone who the student is comfortable with and able to ask any questions or queries however small or silly they may think they might be. Strengths: Excelent communication and people…

I think that possibly the most important thing a tutor can do is instill confidence in a student. By motivating and building a positive relationship with the student a tutor can really motivate a student to succeed. It is extremely important to be patient and understanding with the student, and provide support and encouragement. Finally, I think…

Inside Wonga ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Baylee worked on converting between mixed and improper fractions, as well as finding percentages of whole numbers by expressing them as fractions and multiplying.

In Year 10, Theo focused on English comparative essay skills, including structuring introductions and body paragraphs for Section B (using The Hate Race and Charlie's Country), and grouping evidence to develop strong arguments.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Cameron practised creative writing responses for Station Eleven, exploring how to plan ideas around characters and themes before expanding drafts for his upcoming SAC.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 English student hesitated to write down ideas, worrying too much about perfect phrasing, which meant he struggled to transfer his thoughts to the page. This led to paragraphs that lacked depth and left little time for editing.

In VCE English, not memorising enough quotes also limited evidence used in essays—planning and quote recall need more routine practice.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 maths student had messy long division layouts and sometimes forgot where answers belonged on the page, causing confusion during problem-solving.

When practicing fractions, skipping working steps resulted in small errors that took extra time to fix mid-lesson.

Recent Achievements

A Wonga Park tutor noticed that Cameron, a Year 11 student, now asks clarifying questions during English sessions rather than staying quiet when confused—he recently applied this by discussing persuasive techniques in a new text.

In Year 10, Theo has started grouping evidence and forming his own analysis in essay planning, where previously he would just rephrase material; last session he successfully built paragraphs around both main and minor characters.

Meanwhile, Elsie in Year 4 has moved from struggling with carrying and borrowing in vertical addition to confidently adding two- and three-digit numbers together by the end of her lesson.

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 Warrandyte Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Wonga Park Primary School.
