Clear up difficult concepts/topics and then familiarize them with the types of questions that may come up in those topics. I can be expressive as a tutor and utilize notemaking/examples and visual aids in teaching concepts. I prefer to know the students syllabus/lesson structure beforehand so I can be well prepared for questions they may have…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is being a listener. Every student has unique needs and a unique learning curve but most of them shy away from communicating their needs ti their tutors or their opinions are suppressed even if they try. I believe the most crucial step for being a tutor is being a listener, if you can listen…

As a tutor the most important thing is encouragement. we understand how different one student is from each other, while it may often feel like 1 student out of many, for that student it is everything. So being encouraging, patient and understanding of them is very important for a student during times of struggle. assure them that mistakes are part…

I think it's important for tutors to make students feel comfortable asking any questions they have no matter how simple or challenging. From my experience it is important for any kind of teacher to create a positive environment for learning so the students can get the most out of their education.

As a tutor, I can teach concepts and skills from a different perspective to what the student learns in a classroom.

This means that students can get the most out of their sessions with…

Inside BurnleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Sam worked through factorisation in algebra and solved chemistry mole calculation problems, using step-by-step examples to clarify each process.

For Year 10, Matt focused on structuring English essays by embedding quotes effectively and linking evidence to themes in "The Golden Age."

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Yasmine practiced plotting linear equations on a graph—finding coordinates and understanding why these equations form straight lines—by working through visual exercises together.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student in Mathematics often avoided writing out equations and working, relying on mental calculations—he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors. This made it hard to spot where his reasoning broke down.

In Year 11 English, a student repeatedly left homework incomplete and didn't use highlighters or mindmaps for essay planning, missing opportunities to structure arguments more clearly.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 struggled with consistently bringing required books to lessons, disrupting focus at the start of each session.

During a Physics assignment in Year 12, brief answers were submitted without detail, limiting depth and understanding.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Burnley noticed Matt now completes all his English homework ahead of time and uses planning tables and flash cards to organise ideas—previously he'd only write brief notes and needed prompting.

In Year 10 Biology, another student who once hesitated with project tasks started volunteering creative ways to build a plant cell diorama after some encouragement.

Meanwhile, Yasin (Year 12) is showing real independence: instead of waiting for solutions, he's begun applying physics formulas by himself during lessons and checking his own answers before asking for help.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Gary is doing a great job and Emilee is really appreciative of their time together.

Carl has enjoyed working with both his tutors this year and is well prepared for his VCE math methods exams. Having a personal tutor, even for a student like Carl who is already achieving excellent academic results, has helped relieve some of the stress of VCE and enabled him to sort out areas he wanted to work on with more depth.

Bailey is really happy with Jackie, and so are we, he enjoys their sessions and I can see he is understanding much better.  Jackie is very courteous and punctual.

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 City of Boroondara Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like SEDA College (Victoria) - FFV Burnley.
