1)As a tutor it is very important to understand student's personal needs and cater studies according to that. Get to know them, take few counselling sessions as that would help in getting to know students in a broader way. 2)Be Creative-It is very important for a tutor to be creative. Explaining the same topic in different ways makes a lot of…

Having completed Year 12 not too long ago, I understand the common difficulties faced by students in their studies. The most important thing a tutor can do is to help students develop confidence towards the subject in a calm learning environment. By adapting to the students learning pace, tutors can help identify the gaps within a students…

My strength as a tutor is to be one of the people from whom I have become what I am today and it's good to give back to the community, which I have learned. Most importantly I…

I remember struggling with maths in my childhood, I used to hate it. This one tutor explained a concept that has stuck with me even till now. He said I should try to break down everything complex into the simplest form and stick to the basics. He also said he was confident in me. I feel I have never been the same after that. I found Maths…

As I said sticking with them the knowledge has been properly imparted is probably the most important thing. The other thing would be to make sure that the student is comfortable with the teaching methods and is having fun. The greatest strength that a tutor need is patience and I have had it tested a lot by my younger brother and it's fair to say…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to act as a guide in finding their way around the challenging problems.

Moreover, tutors acting as guides also meant that if students are…

Explain information in a way that the specific student can understand. Once again, up to secondary years of mathematics there certainly is not one way to explain and eventually solve problems. I was always more inclined to be self-taught when it came to maths in secondary school as I often found the ways it taught to be confusing and…

Have patience and make sure that the student actually understands what they're saying.

Let them know that struggle is okay, and not being amazing at something is not a characteristic, but just a hurdle, which can be worked upon by the both of us. I'm dangerously patient. I don't get mad or frustrated when someone doesn't understand something. Rather, I take it personally and try to improve my style and way of teaching so that I can…

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.
