English Tutor Caroline Springs, VIC
To be flexible - not all students will process information and learn in the same ways. It is important that I have creative and varying methods to help engage students while also effectively educating them. It is also important to recognise when one method is not working, thus being able to adapt and fit each students needs. I am relatable as I…

Lauren

English Tutor Taylors Hill, VIC
Not everyone thinks in the same way or is at the same level as you are. So, you need to have a variety of techniques or skills on hand in order to help a child understand what they are learning. I am patient and can think from others' point of view. I can tell when a child may be struggling and am able to sense when what I'm doing doesn't make…

There are a lot of things that can be considered important while tutoring a student. The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to find their strengths and abilities in the subjects they are struggling with. This will help them in improving academically and increase their interpersonal skills as this will encourage them in asking…

English Tutor
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is allowing a student time to try and solve aspects of the problem themselves following proper guidance, instead of hand-holding them the entire way. This helps build critical thinking skills and allows the student to recognise the roots of the question. A tutor should also be understanding of any…

Inside Diggers RestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Zoe focused on forming and solving two-step algebraic equations, as well as tackling worded problems and combining like terms.

Year 8 student Ronan worked through fractions and integers, alongside reviewing ratio concepts using online resources when needed.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student practiced addition of two- and three-digit numbers and identified place values up to the hundreds column for improved number sense.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student working on algebra hesitated to trust correct answers and frequently second-guessed themselves—"he was right the first time, but kept doubting," a tutor noted—which led to lost time and reduced confidence during problem-solving.

In a Year 4 session, the habit of jumping straight to an answer in worded maths problems without showing working meant steps were missed, making it harder to spot errors or earn full marks.

Distraction was also evident; for example, one primary student became preoccupied by small things and drifted off-task mid-activity, especially after finishing regular classwork for the year.

Recent Achievements

One Diggers Rest tutor noticed Zoe, a Year 7 student, moving from needing guidance with algebra to confidently completing two-step equations on her own; she even finished a pre-test at school ahead of most classmates—something she hadn't managed before.

In high school, Ronan recently began starting his assignments without any assistance, after previously waiting for prompts before getting started.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who struggled with subtraction is now able to trade twice for numbers like 600–298 independently and checks answers by herself—last week she solved these problems without reminders.

Local Spots for Tutoring
