Every student has different expectations from a tutor and thus the most important thing might vary from student to student. Some of them might just be looking for a pass in the subject whereas others might be looking for really good grades. For some grades wont even matter and they strive for understanding the subject thoroughly. I believe the…

Help them to gain back their confidence. I mean from primary to middle school or even high school, the curriculum might be hard but not that hard that students could not pass it. I believe any students are capable of finishing high school with a decent grade. Most students I met were just getting distracted, or not spending their time enough on…

Instill a passion to learn the subject the tutor is helping out with and just generally help make the student feel competent when dealing with the subject. I can teach a wide range of subjects (all sciences) and I can pinpoint well what exactly the student is struggling with and try to explain the solution/ answer to their problems…

Give time, especially more before the exam. This is because that is the time when most of the problems about the subject come out. Also, the tutor needs to make sure that the student understood the topic. The tutor should be willing to explain the topic as many times as the students want to. I can adapt very quickly. I put myself in the shoes of…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is guide a student. Just watering is not enough but should help the students to grow his roots so that the student grasps the concepts not just answer some previously seen examples. I like to teach students in a way that is interactive and not directive.I feel that the more students learn about the…

Treat each student as an individual person. The same methods of tutoring might not apply on the other. Moreover patience is necessary. Tutors should maintain a pace comfortable for the student. Tutors should be humble enough to admit if they don't know few answers and should be able to research and provide the answers to the student. I learn…

I believe that a tutor should be friendly with the student so that the student can freely discuss the problems with his/her tutor. The tutor can use interesting techniques to describe the concepts which will increase the concentration of the student and also his/her eagerness to learn. Again asking the student questions about the topic can help…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student to lift them up what they feel mostly interested while learning anything. To motivate them while they do something new and bring any new idea to resolve any problem. That will help to develop the psychology of a student in more positive way to move forward with their willingness of thinking…

Leave them with a proper process with answering questions under time pressure.

Local Reviews

The staff are very friendly, and communication is great. It only took a few days to get a chemistry tutor for our daughter, and the first lesson was excellent.
Peta Collins, Yarraville

Inside YarravilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Layla worked on graphing and finding equations of circles, practicing with real examples; Year 10 student Michael focused on solving simultaneous equations using the elimination method and also learned to graph linear equations.

While in Year 11, Sophia revised how to complete the square for quadratics and polished her skills with discriminants and solving inequalities, including practice with quadratic turning points.

Recent Challenges

A Year 7 student left homework unfinished last week, which meant key concepts in "completing the square" didn't get enough reinforcement before moving on.

In Year 9, a tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors"—the written work lacked structure and made mistakes harder to spot.

Meanwhile, a senior student tackling quadratic equations relied heavily on mental calculations rather than writing out each stage; this slowed progress when more complex problems appeared.

One Year 10 lesson saw time lost as the student hunted for forgotten materials instead of practicing worded questions. Each scenario cost valuable practice or clarity at crucial moments.

Recent Achievements

One Yarraville tutor noticed Isla independently spotted her own errors in SOH CAH TOA problems—a shift from earlier sessions when she waited for hints before correcting mistakes.

In a senior session, Samuel took initiative with his study routine by creating detailed to-do lists and reflecting on what worked after each study block, rather than relying solely on the tutor's prompts as he had before.

Meanwhile, Tata (Year 6) tackled tricky literacy tasks by rewriting definitions and practicing spelling until she could read them out confidently—an improvement from her initial reluctance to read aloud.

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 Yarraville Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Augustine's School.
