I believe it's important for tutors to ensure that their students see them as a not only in a 'teacher' role, but someone they could look to advice if they ever feel the need - like a role model, or a mentor. Tutors should help their students gain confidence in their ability to achieve their goals, and by establishing small, achievable milestones…

The key benefit of an english tutor is that they can provide individualised support for a student. Tutors have the unique position of being able to become very familiar with their students' understanding of subjects, and employ the most effective strategies to improve their learning.

Inside Burwood HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Ruby worked on strengthening addition and subtraction skills and was introduced to telling time using clocks.

For Year 9, Marcus tackled expanding algebraic equations and applied these in a maths assignment for practical understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Chloe focused on mastering quadratic equations through factorising and expanding exercises, making use of step-by-step practice problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student working on quadratic equations often skipped showing steps in algebra, which, as a tutor noted, "hid sign errors and made mistakes harder to find." This led to confusion when checking answers and slowed progress in later questions.

In Year 8, during work on probability exercises, a student struggled to identify whether the question required "A and B" or "A or B," often not reading test prompts closely enough—this left parts of answers incomplete.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner repeatedly guessed rather than trying her own working; when distracted or unsure, she would ask for help immediately instead of attempting solutions herself.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Burwood Heights noticed one Year 11 student has stopped trying to memorise formulas and instead breaks them down visually, which helped her finally solve problems on bearings by drawing coloured diagrams—a big shift from her earlier confusion.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student recently managed to catch all the errors she made on her algebra homework and explained why they happened, showing more independence than before.

In primary sessions, a Year 3 girl who used to say "I don't know" now starts counting by twos out loud without prompting or hesitation.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Kareem is very happy with John as am I. He makes sure Kareem understands the basics and rules of what he is learning, which is what Kareem needs.

I'd like to report that George thinks Chirag is "so smart" . He is doing the work Chirag leaves him and is definitely more confident. I find him to always be punctual and polite and am very happy we found him.

We are very happy with Katie and her style. She is giving Blythe confidence and this week Blythe has completed her homework with much less assistance!

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 Burwood Library and Community Hub—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Joseph's Catholic Primary School.
