Psychology Tutor Camberwell, VIC
I would say being able to help the student in a way that they won’t require help anymore in the future. To teach them life skills such as being able to add, subtract, tell the time, spellings, nouns, pronouns etc which will come in very handy and is used in everyday life. I am pretty good in Maths and English so those are my strongest subjects…

Psychology Tutor Brandon Park, VIC
I believe a tutor should assist each student with their learning style to achieve the best in a subject and also be a good role model to help them in their school journey. A tutor should also be optimistic, encouraging and compassionate to understand each student's needs and goals. I am a diligent, flexible, compassionate and open-minded tutor…

Psychology Tutor Kew, VIC
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is be a student's number one supporter. School fills you with enough doubt as is, so it is imperative to create a safe learning environment for them to make mistakes in order to grow. This goes hand in hand with being a role model whom they can be inspired & motivated by and look up to. I believe…

Psychology Tutor Mount Waverley, VIC
The most important things a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, are: 1. Foster a love of learning: The best tutors inspire curiosity and make learning enjoyable, not just a chore. 2. Build confidence: Many students struggle with self-doubt. A tutor can help them believe in their abilities and tackle challenges with a positive…

Psychology Tutor Vermont South, VIC
Being able to help students understand what they're learning and then carrying that over and applying that to any assessments they may have. Making sure the student is confident in their own ability and that they remain calm during stressful situations where they may be short on time is also very important. Also stimulating any interests the…

Psychology Tutor Ivanhoe, VIC
Understand what works for them and how they learn, then adapt the work to be specific to them. Keep the work engaging and ask the student what they want to learn or what their goals are. I have experience in teaching young children on a service trip through my school in maths and english (5-10 years old). I achieved an ATAR in the 90's. I…

Psychology Tutor Carnegie, VIC
Honestly - be patient and adaptable. So many kids have come to me after school and shown me a method that their teacher absolutely insists they use, and that they just completely don’t get. Every child learns differently. There’s no point trying to force a specific method if it simply doesn’t work for them - I struggled with this as a…

Psychology Tutor Oakleigh, VIC
I think the most important thing a tutor can do is provide constant reassurance in their abilities. I feel like a lot of the time when students feel overwhelmed with school work they lose confidence in their ability to answer questions to write an essay. Having a tutor, someone who can guide them, motivate them and assess and improve weak areas…

As a busy family, having the convenience of a tutor come into the house has made it so much easier for us to commit to weekly tutoring. Our tutor is on time and has been helpful for my daughter understanding maths concepts that were challenging her.

Inside Box HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Jamie revised linear functions by identifying x and y axes, finding intercepts, and calculating gradients before plotting coordinates on graphs.

In Year 8, Priya focused on angles in parallel lines, using diagrams to solve for unknown values and reviewing types of angles from term content.

For a Year 9 session, Daniel tackled statistics by constructing frequency tables and bar graphs, then calculated mean, median, mode, and explored box-and-whisker plots to interpret data visually.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student in algebra avoided showing full working when finding gradients from two points—she skipped steps in equations, which made it hard to spot calculation errors.

In a senior statistics session, incomplete homework on box-and-whisker plots left key gaps; the student hesitated during IQR questions.

A Year 6 student's written work was messy and lacked clear layout in long division, leading to repeated confusion with remainders.

Meanwhile, one primary learner struggled to focus during word problem tasks and guessed answers rather than writing solutions—a rushed approach that led to unfinished revision sheets by lesson's end.

Recent Achievements

One Box Hill tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with graph sketching now confidently draws accurate line graphs from just the equation, no prompting needed.

In a recent high school session, another student who previously second-guessed herself with linear equations was able to recall lesson objectives and solve for unknowns without pausing or asking for help.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who struggled with simplifying fractions finally managed to use long division independently by the end of their lesson—after starting out unsure, he worked through several problems on his own and got them right.

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 Blackburn Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of Sion College.
