Psychology Tutor Sunbury, VIC
Celebrate the wins and encourage and support them through the trickier parts so that we can get more wins and celebrate more so they feel like winners all the time! One of my strengths would have to be that I often think differently to most where I see problems in a different light. This allows me to provide students with a different way of…

Psychology Tutor Sydenham, VIC
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be a good mentor and teacher. Literal academic success is amazing but the most important thing for a tutor is to be apart of a student's knowledge growing and strengthening. I consider personal growth and development to be immensely important and helping a student achieve their own goals to…

Psychology Tutor Taylors Lakes, VIC
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…

Psychology 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…

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.
