For me the most important things a biology tutor can do for a student is to teach them what is needed and by teaching a little but teaching it well and prepares them to the real life situation. I think my strenghts as a tutor is my passion as a teacher/ tutor. The knowledge about the subject matter and the experiences i have. For more than seven…
The most important thing for a biology tutor is to never underestimate a student, and to be there for them as a support and to show them that they can. If a student loses self esteem and think that they can't do it...they wont. It's all about giving them a healthy mindset which allows them to gain the knowledge given. My biggest strength i believe…
I think a biology tutor needs to be patient and easy going in a way that students can be comfortable with, and question things they feel unable to question in their school classroom. I think tutors need to teach their students the importance of practice and resilience, especially in VCE. English is a subject which takes lots of practice and…
Encouraging kids and placing them in a healthy and thriving learning environment is just as important as educating them.

This is so important, as I have seen and experienced the worst of demeaning comments and attitudes from…
I believe a student's emotional well-being, especially their feelings towards their studies is very important. By addressing what's causing them distress and overwhelming feelings a biology tutor can greatly improve a student's performance. This is because one's attitude can hugely impact not only the amount of effort one is willing to put in, but…

Giving the best for her students and listening them actively to understand their learning style and guide them towards their goals. My nature of never giving up on the concept and easy recognition of my student’s change in body language, voice that make me aware that they didn’t understand the concepts and I’ll never move to next one until I…
In my high school days, i went to alot of tutors and i learned the difference between a good and a bad tutor. Bad tutors i believe stay within the box, afraid to go out and expose the students true potential. A good tutor can not only help the student keep on track of school work and assist in any difficulties the student may have, but also push…

I believe that a biology tutor should understand that students have different ways of the studying that actually help them in their studies, and they should be able to adapt and prepare new ways of teaching that is most valuable to students. A tutor should be motivating but disciplinary to students, to ensure they maintain a good mindset towards…
Studying techniques, creating good habits and of course, feedback for improvements! These are the important aspects that a biology tutor should show their students. There is much more to learning than parroting back facts - information needs to absorbed, regurgitated, reused in a practical sense. I have much hands-on experience in using my chosen…
Tutors are a guide and mentor for students. Tutors help students achieve their goal without any expectations, whether students have scored something high or low, the important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is to keep them motivated, uplifting them from any anxieties and stresses. For I believe that creating a bond between a student…
The most important thing that a biology tutor could do for a student would be to gage what level they are at, and give them questions according to that, because if someone was aiming to get above 50% on a test for example, it would be important to spend more time on the basics, than the questions that only 5-10% of the cohort could answer. My…
I believe the most important things a biology tutor can do for a student is to understand their needs and any difficulties they are facing along their academic journey and come up with various solutions rather than just teaching. Also, I believe customised tutoring sessions are particularly helpful in education as students learn differently. Thus,…

For me, a tutor is a character who is able to assist you and point out some hidden methods and information that might not be taught colloquially at schools, making the student more confident in doing their respective subjects. I have the ability to be patient as well as being able to explain concepts in different manners to reach more people. I…
- maximizing the students' strengths, making them overcome their areas of weakness
- personalize learning experience to suit the student.

Education can be extremely enjoyable but, understandably, if students cannot grasp concepts and ideas, they quickly lose interest. I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is to show their students that learning can actually be fun by teaching them about new ways of thinking. This, in turn, would help them engage in the content of a…
One of the most important things a teacher can do for their student is to listen. Not to listen to think of the next response but to listen to understand. I believe as a teacher listening specifically to WHAT the student is asking not HOW they are asking it is one of the most valuable and important skills I've learned to develop. When a student is…
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
What they say about our tutoring
Thanks for the follow up. We are happy with Aprinder and pleased with the progress Flynn is making.
We are really happy with Vivienne. She is very patient and explains things extremely clearly. Already had a 74% which for a child who is almost maths dialexic this was fabulous. Anyway we are very happy with her
Thankyou
Hi Erica, thank you for your email. Things have started well with Jacob and hopefully they will continue in the same way. I think in this case, the difference for Jamie is that she can ask Jacob about a problem that she is struggling with and he can answer her straight away. Vivian was able to answer her too but it took her longer and I think the time factor was what was frustrating Jamie. As I'm sure you are aware in year 12 there is such a time crunch that any delays just add more pressure.
