I consider empathy and genuine regard for the student and his/her learning experience as most important. While it is true that we could be highly skilled in the subject matter or content area, without genuine regard for the students teaching them might simply be mechanical and without connection. As a tutor, I think it is important to feel the…

- A tutor needs to be able to guide the students into considering the application of what they are learning and being able to provide them with the support that they need. A tutor can also provide students with emotional support as sometimes it is difficult for students to deal with the balance between life and studying. - Strong listening -…

I also believe that a tutor should encourage their students to see learning material as more than content they can forget after a test but rather as valuable…

This creates a friendly, cooperative and stress free environment where they can express…

Inside BangholmeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Jaxxon worked on identifying number patterns and writing numbers as words, using practical worksheets to build confidence.

In Year 9, Olivia focused on statistics by calculating mean and standard deviation, then created timeline plots to represent data visually.

For Year 11, Ethan revised advanced trigonometry topics including the general solution for circular functions and practiced applying translations, dilations, and reflections to function graphs.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3 maths, skipping written working and using fingers for addition led to confusion in multi-step problems; as one tutor noted, "he should work on comprehending worded problems without assistance."

A Year 8 student often left out equal signs or brackets when setting out algebra, making it hard to spot errors later—some steps were done mentally then forgotten.

In VCE maths, a student's revision focused mainly on familiar finance formulas but avoided complex applications; trial SAC questions revealed that over-reliance on calculators sometimes caused missed settings like the degrees symbol.

Time lost reorganizing unclear working meant less chance to attempt challenging questions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Bangholme noticed a big shift with a Year 11 student who used to hesitate when stuck; now, he immediately asks for help and keeps his notebooks organised without reminders.

In another high school session, a Year 10 student who previously struggled to show her working has begun writing out each step when solving equations—making fewer errors as a result.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student moved from guessing number patterns to confidently recognising and explaining them on her own, even tackling new problems without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

In response to your earlier email, I am absolutely delighted with Nick.  Tabi trusts that Nick can help her and is beginning to deal with the sense of panic she builds up when confronted with problems she is not sure how to solve or techniques taught in class that she did not understand.  I can see Tabi beginning to feel more confident and she certainly feels supported by Nick.

Pat has really appreciated and enjoyed the help Josh has given him with his Maths. Tutoring with Josh during the holidays will make an excellent start to year 11!

Thank you for touching base. I am really impressed with William's efforts to date. He has very quickly worked out Layla's weaknesses and the areas that need attention. I also believe that his strategy of working slightly ahead of schedule and thus getting her 'in front' in some areas will help with her confidence in class. Layla is also receiving additional Maths support in school and combined with William's efforts, I am confident that we should see her Maths results improve.

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 Patterson Lakes Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mt Hira College.
