I reckon a tutor should actively listen to students. Understanding their struggles and learnings styles are keys to effective guidance. The latter is of extreme importance as everyone learns differently. I once had a student who struggled with why he wanted to learn English, be it professional or just casual language. We worked out together and in…

I believe the most important thing in tutoring is for the tutor to provide a personalised learning experience, as every student is different and will learn better under different styles. Some may require a faster or slower pace, additional resources, or re going over certain things multiple times. I believe I would make a good tutor as I am a…

The most important thing a tutor can do is not only to help students achieve academic success, but to also help the students develop a willingness to delve deeper into that field.

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be patient and understanding of their circumstances. It can be demoralising being behind in a subject and frustrating when you can't wrap your head around a concept, so I believe a tutor has to not be pushy and provide the student with the space to pick up the concepts at their own…

I think the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, promote genuine understanding, and foster independence. Confidence is key, as many students struggle not because they lack ability, but because they doubt themselves. A good tutor helps shift that mindset. Just as important is making sure the student…

Inside YallambieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Olivia focused on algebraic techniques using Chapter 4 of the Edrolo textbook and also worked through transposing between mixed and improper fractions.

Year 8 student Sam practised for an upcoming test on probability and statistical analysis, including real-world examples to consolidate understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Zoe concentrated on Cartesian coordinates from Chapter 9 of the Edrolo textbook and explored applications by plotting points on coordinate grids.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student's incomplete homework is making it difficult to build on core algebra skills—"he will not progress any further in Mathematics unless he tends to his homework."

In Year 7, poor attention span led to missed steps when handling decimals and multiplication tables, with focus drifting mid-question.

For a senior student, as noted, "the complete disregard for time and lack of participation severely hampered the potential learning outcomes" during geometry revision.

Messy handwriting and reluctance to read or write have also slowed comprehension in upper primary lessons; requests for neater work are frequent before clarity improves.

Recent Achievements

One Yallambie tutor noticed a Year 10 student who, after initially struggling with fraction addition, pushed through and now solves algebraic equations using fractions—something he found intimidating at first.

In a recent session, two brothers in Year 8 went from distracted to enthusiastically competing against each other to answer percentage questions, showing new drive and focus compared to earlier lessons.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to hesitate on three-digit addition now completes these sums without error, finishing an entire set of problems correctly by himself.

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