I think the most important thing a student can do for a student is to personally assist and direct their teaching towards the specific needs of the student. I believe a tutor should also be very patient and understanding, and be persistent as there are so many different ways to teach and explain concepts. I believe a student should never leave a…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student are to have patience and be willing to share their own experience. Firstly, being patient is essential. A good tutor should learn not to show annoyance in their speech or body language as young people, especially children, can quickly grasp negative emotions. It might make them feel worried…

Listen to what the student has to say, and base their teaching strategy around their individual needs. If the tutor doesn’t listen to a student or understand their struggles with certain areas, how could the tutor expect good results from their student?

If a tutor teaches without having this in mind, there are chances that even after months of teaching, the student will not grasp the information as well as he/she probably could if…

Inside Essendon FieldsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Tyler worked on converting between percentages, fractions, and decimals using tables, then applied this understanding to worded problems.

In Year 7, Hayden explored persuasive writing techniques—like expert opinions and emotional appeals—and analysed how these are used in sample texts.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Damon focused on identifying and drawing different types of angles (right, acute, obtuse) and practiced finding area and perimeter for various 2D shapes using diagrams.

Recent Challenges

Sami needs to work on showing his working out for numeracy, rather than just the answer itself; this led to errors in calculation going unnoticed until late.

In Year 6 maths, Tyler's homework was incomplete due to illness but previously had been left unattempted—missing out on essential practice between sessions.

A Year 5 student tried sneaking a calculator into maths tasks; once it was removed, she showed better focus but struggled with signs when rushing.

The missed steps and incomplete revision have left gaps that resurface in later problem-solving.

Recent Achievements

One Essendon Fields tutor noticed Sami, a high school student, tackling a heavier workload than usual—he managed to complete 90% of his assigned work and showed initiative by asking to play a literacy game as a reward for finishing on time.

Meanwhile, Hayden (also in high school) demonstrated a real shift: after previously hesitating with unfamiliar vocabulary, he now reads new words aloud and creates strong real-life examples for writing strategies.

In primary, Charlotte began her session not knowing multiplication but finished confidently drawing out groups to solve questions like 5x5 and 3x7.

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 Moonee Valley Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like Strathmore North Primary School.
