Be persistent and encouraging, as well as being clear and concise. I believe that tutors should be patient and accepting. This will help both the tutor and the student. My strengths are in English.

I believe the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to develop the student to a place where they are achieving goals of which once seemed to be completely out of their reach. To embed an attitude of continual improvement and re-evaluation is my constant goal as a tutor, and one of which I believe should be the focal point…

Being encouraging is the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student. A student who is made to feel comfortable and supported - in a way that is often impossible in a school setting with 30+ children - may feel motivated and empowered to take control of their education. Encouraging a student can ameliorate the stressful feelings…

It is being able to relate to students who struggle and find a way that works for them, not necessarily a way that only works for me. In my experience, a student needs an english tutor willing to adapt to their needs. A tutor can always keep track of their student's progress and help them achieve their goals. We are helping students achieve their…

The most important thing is listening to a student and truly understanding their strengths and weaknesses. This will ensure that the lesson is tailored for their own needs and maximum benefits are gained. Moreover, if a student does not understand a certain concept, explaining it to them in a different manner is really important. My strength is…

To introduce students to new ways of thinking that benefit their studies. As an english tutor, it should be a key objective to ensure that the student's capabilities are growing, and to prepare them for any difficulties that might surprise them throughout the year. I am a strong and effective leader. I have had extensive experience in public…

Tutors should be able to not only teach concepts to students but also get them to have a genuine interest in the subject, as this further increases the students' willingness and ability to do well in their studies. They should also equip students with the skills necessary to successfully complete assessments they are given, as understanding…

English Tutor Cranbourne East, VIC
A tutor that can listen to a student even when they haven't said anything. Often, a student can never quite figure out what is wrong in their way of solving a problem and as a result cannot express what is incorrect in their reasoning. A tutor that can identify these weaknesses without the student having to say it is the most important thing I can…

whilst grades and results are critical, I believe my role to students would be to build their confidence in their own capabilities.

A tutor should be patient and be flexible, able to adjust their lesson plan according to student needs. It is important that the tutor does not just talk AT the student, but allow them to respond and engage with the student, in a way that allows the student to integrate lessons on paper into daily life, and hopefully foster an interest in the…

Dillon was a wonderful tutor and the progress made with our daughter Ellie in her year 9 mathematics results was fantastic.
Kate

Inside Botanic RidgeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Sarah worked on TEEL paragraph structure for English essays and reviewed expectations for Year 7 content, using sample texts to build confidence.

For Year 10, Daniel focused on two-variable statistics and interpreting R values from Chapter 7, also tackling related textbook exercises.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student completed revision across all SAC topics with special attention to the use of CAS calculators for solving advanced problems in preparation for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 4 student was reminded repeatedly to write down all working, as skipping this made it hard to catch errors in multiplication problems.

In Year 8 English, incomplete homework slowed progress; "She needs to finish the odd-numbered exercises before next lesson," one tutor noted.

A Year 10 student over-relied on her calculator during algebra revision, attempting more questions only when given this aid.

For VCE (Year 12), missing the creation of a bound reference meant weaker SAC and exam preparation.

After setbacks in trigonometry, one senior lost confidence and hesitated to attempt unfamiliar practice tasks alone.

Recent Achievements

One Botanic Ridge tutor noticed a Year 10 student, Ishan, who previously struggled to organise his ideas, confidently wrote a full TEEL paragraph and identified visual imagery from complex descriptions during English.

In a recent high school maths session, another student made just one error out of fifty questions after consistently reviewing and correcting past mistakes—a big shift from earlier sessions where errors often went unchecked.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student who used to stay quiet now actively asks for help when unsure instead of guessing, finishing her latest homework without needing reminders.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I have seen improvement already. Jason is a gem and I want to continue with Will having his weekly tutoring session.

Priscilla is wonderful with both my boys. I would recommend her without hesitation.

WE are very happy with Adam. He is an excellent tutor and he is engaging them both very well

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