To help them become confident and self-sufficient in the subject! I work to fill the gaps in knowledge that often hold students back from achieving all they are capable of. I know what it's like to struggle with maths in high school and so relate to students who may be less confident. My approach is to break exercises down into little parts,…

A tutor must recognise the level of understanding of a student and then explain concepts to that level. This will ensure progress of the student. 1) I have patience to keep explaining till the student understands it. 2) I teach each student differently based on their level of understanding. 3) I prepare myself well before the session, try to…

When a student genuinely enjoys learning about a topic, they will be more motivated. When students love what they're learning, it unlocks their potential. That energy and excitement will hopefully lead to a deeper…

In order for the tutoring sessions to be efficient, it is essential that a good relationship be established between the tutor and the student. Often, this relationship is created quickly, but at other times, it may take a few sessions before the student opens up. The success of this relationship reveals the personalities of each of them, but it…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to not only be a good guide for them but also to be a good listener to them. This is to allow a trusting bond between a student and a tutor to develop. Hence, this thus develop the student's interest to study and be motivated as they are now in the midst of a trusting figure.…

I think a tutor can inspire the students and teach them the importance of knowledge. I also think the students many a times look up to their teachers as role models. So a tutor should also be a persona that they imitate! And hence it's the duty of the teacher to set a good example in front of their students for them to learn and grow! I can be…

In my opinion, learning and getting good grades are two things that complement each other. Once students have a firm grasp of the knowledge points in the learning phase, then they will have enough confidence to cope with the exam. As a tutor, you need to help students absorb knowledge more easily at the stage of learning knowledge. For example,…

Inside East MelbourneTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Alex practised **perimeter and area calculations for rectangles using visual diagrams**, and began exploring volume concepts.

In Year 8, Sophie focused on **solving equations and inequalities**, including a review of quadratic expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student James worked through physics motion questions involving **velocity, displacement, and time calculations**, alongside targeted chemistry exam question reviews to strengthen his understanding of key concepts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student preparing for Units 1 and 2 exam questions struggled with calculations, especially when pressured for time—she missed marks on multi-step problems because units weren't clearly written, noted one tutor.

In Year 8 algebra, skipping the step of flipping inequality signs when multiplying by negatives led to repeated errors that practice alone didn't fix.

A Year 4 student's working was often hard to follow due to inconsistent layout; this made checking answers difficult, especially with area versus perimeter tasks.

For a senior Physics student, not responding fully to feedback meant velocity calculations stayed shaky into the next lesson.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in East Melbourne noticed a big change for one Year 9 student who used to get stuck on fraction problems—she now works through addition, subtraction, and even multiplying fractions with much less hesitation and remembers the steps from week to week.

In a senior session, another student showed initiative by completing several practice exams independently and reported feeling more prepared than before for upcoming assessments.

Meanwhile, a younger student who was previously reluctant to speak up has started asking questions whenever she's unsure about how area and volume differ, instead of quietly guessing.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

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!

Sessions are going really well. Hasnat and Charlotte are building a good rapport. She is very happy with the sessions, and they are communicating well. So all good!

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 East Melbourne Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Richmond West Primary School.
