I think it is important to build confidence for students because there are some students that lack confidence because they are behind. Furthermore, creating a supportive, learning environment is equally important. Although academic improvement is a key goal, being in an approachable and supportive environment allows students to be more willing to…

The most important thing a tutor can do is inspire confidence and curiosity. My high school chemistry tutor had a huge impact on me. He made learning exciting and showed me it wasn’t just about memorizing facts. His enthusiasm and clear explanations made me want to pursue Chem Eng. Now, as a tutor, I aim to do the same for others. It’s not…

The student should understand the concepts from basic. Students should be given the regular exams in order to test their learning process. Rather than scolding a student, explaining concepts to them again and again till they understood is what I am good at. I have done my Bachelor’s in Computer Science. As a part of my curriculum I had…

Since, I am a student also, I think like a best teacher is the best motivator. So how it works ,never told a student directly that he or she is wrong, instead told them like ,you are near but can you think in another way or try to improvise your idea differently and present it. For me a "Best teacher is a best motivator" be it subjects or in…

The most crucial aspects for a tutor are clear explanations, creating a supportive environment, and adapting to diverse learning styles. It's vital to convey that making mistakes is part of learning, fostering confidence, and dispelling any intimidating image of a teacher to create a comfortable and open learning atmosphere. Patience, effective…

To listen to them, I find that they often know best their own struggles, and it can be incredibly valuable to listen to them so that they can feel like they're being heard and helped. This can also help avoid the kids feeling like they are pointlessly covering areas they are already confident in. I have babysat and informally tutored for many…

I consider building a strong relationship with students as a big part of tutoring.

However, keeping students motivated is a responsibility tutors must hold in a high regard as it is key to a student success. By building a…

Inside FitzroyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Gus focused on measurement skills including unit conversions, perimeter, and an introduction to surface area, as well as exploring the angle sum in triangles.

In Year 9, Maryam worked on solving simultaneous equations using substitution and elimination, then applied these methods to practical problems.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ali reviewed operations with fractions—adding, subtracting, multiplying with different denominators—and extended this knowledge to simplifying algebraic fractional expressions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 6 student in Fitzroy showed difficulty setting out work neatly and consistently dating pages, making it harder to track progress—especially when tackling worded measurement problems.

As one tutor observed, "she struggles to walk through questions speaking out loud," which made it tough to clarify her thinking on fraction conversions and unit changes.

In Year 10 English, a student forgot to submit an essay by the deadline, delaying feedback and causing extra stress before class.

A senior maths student arrived unprepared for sessions without essential materials like a pen or laptop; this slowed the start and limited practice time.

Recent Achievements

One Fitzroy tutor noticed a Year 11 student, Celeste, who used to hesitate with trigonometry word problems now confidently solves bearings and graphing tasks on her own—she even tackles complex questions without prompting.

In another session, Maryam (Year 10) moved from confusion about box plots to clearly explaining five-figure summaries and solving simultaneous equations using both substitution and elimination methods.

Meanwhile, in Year 6 maths, Ella showed a shift from struggling with measurement topics to independently working through area and volume questions, finishing her test section on these without needing hints.

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 Fitzroy Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sacred Heart School.
