Tutors in Dundas include high-achieving graduates, experienced teachers, subject specialists, and passionate mentors from top Australian universities. Many have received academic awards or hold advanced degrees, and all share a genuine commitment to helping students succeed.
Tutor can be patient with their student and let them learn at their pace. Also, I believe a physics tutor should NEVER spoon fed but rather act like a mentor, guiding and helping if and only where it is required. I'm patient with students and understand that each student is different and have their own learning pace. I take pride in my ability to…
My experience with helping my friends and classmates speaks here, that I should be patient and understanding about their situation, at the same time be scheduled and organized so the tutor and a student can be kept up to schedule with the current position of their curriculum, whist not feeling pressured to do so. As a undergraduate student, I am…
My strengths as a physics tutor lie in my patience, my ability to simplify complex concepts, and my adaptability to different learning styles. I understand that every student learns at their own pace, so I take the time to break down difficult topics in a way that makes sense to them. By adjusting my approach based on each student’s needs, I…
I believe tutors exist to help extend the foundations of what students are taught in schools, whether it be through analysing old concepts with a finer view or reinforcing newer concepts with carefully selected examples and analogies. I believe I am quite capable of exercising patience when a student is trying to understand the subject, trying to…
Understand where the student stands and get to that level to explain to the student so that the student actually enjoys learning I can get down to the level of each student, understand their personality and help them learn according to the type of person they…
To develop critical thinking and a problem solving attitude in a student so that they can themselves breakdown a complex question into easier, doable sections to reach to the solution. This will help the student to clarify their concepts without the tutor directly providing them with the solution but instead leading them through a simplified…
Getting my students into the headspace required for success. I’ve worked with countless teachers, successful past students, and tutors from year 12 until now which has now given me a wealthy accumulation of knowledge for each individual subject. Exam response structure, mental tactics to approach exams, maximising use of past exam papers - I…
Make the student love the subject. There are many ways varying from a student to the other. If a student falls in love with the subject, he will comprehend it, not just learn it. I started tutoring when i was in undergraduate to my own class fellows and that was in 2002. With such a vast experience i have amazing teaching skills built-in…
A tutor can encourage a student to better themselves, to reach simple goals and then challenge them further to be the best. I feel achieved when the student starts asking complex question as the day passes by, to the point where you have to give the answer a second thought.
And that is when I know i have achieved being an excellent tutor. I…

Being able to target the small goals and achieving those goals gradually. Passionate to teach others
Being patient
Showing them how to improve by practicing
Showing then how to be competitive
Be on…
I believe the most important things a physics tutor can do for a student are to provide clarity, build confidence, and foster independent thinking.
A tutor should help students develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills so they can tackle future challenges independently. Rather than just providing answers, I focus on guiding students…
The most important thing that a physics tutor should do is teaching student how to study efficiently, instead of just give them questions to do and mentioning about the content. Try best to explain the content and help them to learn more. Try my best to arrange my time and planning my class, be patient to student to explain all contents and have a…
First of all, which a physics tutor can do is to be a friend who motivates them, make them learn, make them understand without any pressure and excel them in their early stage of career.
Secondly, it's all about how comfortable the students are with tutor to ask them doubts without any hesitation.
Thirdly, make them learn how to do a smart work…
The tutor must be patient and approachable. He/she should make sure that the student should be able to understand the lesson and perform well in class. I am patient and kind. I prepare my own materials for the lessons. I also make mock up quizzes and exams. I am creative in making them understand the lesson like relating the subject to the normal…
he most important thing a physics tutor can do for a student is to build their confidence. When students believe in themselves, they are more willing to tackle challenges and grow. Another key aspect is tailoring the learning experience to their individual needs every student learns differently, and it's important to adapt to their strengths and…
Simplify concepts in an understandable personalized way for them to understand at their own rythm. A tutor can relieve the preassure of due dates or schedules from the classroom and advance along with the student. Focusing on understanding how the student learns, ask them about their interests and being able to relate the subject with something…
Although explaining concepts is definitely useful, I believe it is a physics tutor's responsibility to show students how to enjoy studying and do it more effectively. Helping students mentally through encouragement and giving them tips on how to thrive in any avenue of study and learning will benefit them far more than just learning a formula or…
helping students become more independant and confident learners and help them with their understanding in different subjects every student learns differently and i think i have the ability to try multiple approaches and help each individual in their way of…
Help the student visualise or truly understand the concept instead of having to memorise the equations. If a student understands the concept, it could become intuitive for the student to know how to use the equation. One other important thing a physics tutor can do for a student is to be encouraging and empathetic, build the student's confidence…
Being patient. A lot of teachers get frustrated when students do not understand concepts the way they teach them. It is important to teach every student in their own way and be patient with the teaching process. Otherwise a student's confidence and motivation to learn is harmed. My biggest strength would be communication. I am adept at explaining…
A tutor can teach according to the need of a student which is not possible in a class. Even a child can tell his or her weakness frankly which they can't express in the class I start from the basic. I teach according to the need of a child. I can teach the same concept number of times until the child understands. I can teach all the types of…
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
Lazarus is very happy with Joseph.
I think Joseph will be a good fit for Lazarus' learning needs.
Charley has warmed to Charissa. It is great that she is young, female, confident and friendly. We have had two sessions so far and taken a break over the holidays. When Charissa returns from her holiday we will continue with regular weekly sessions and hopefully during the coming weeks/months Charissa can help Charley understand how to plan and do her homework regularly rather than with panic the morning that it is due!
The tutoring has started really well
Sam is very happy with Din and has gotten off to a positive start.
