The most important things a tutor can do for a student is being a good listener, motivates the students, and being engaging. Without these qualities, the tutoring session can hardly be successful. Another quality a tutor must have is the ability to personalise the style of teaching accordingly to different students. I believe my biggest strength…

Being able to help students understand what they're learning and then carrying that over and applying that to any assessments they may have. Making sure the student is confident in their own ability and that they remain calm during stressful situations where they may be short on time is also very important. Also stimulating any interests the…

I think it is important for a tutor to really understand and communicate with the student about what they want to improve in their learning. When a student knows their weaknesses in maths then a tutor can target questions and concepts towards that area. This will help the student to benefit from the tutoring session and feel more satisfied,…

Being actively there for them, and encouraging a student to ask questions, and learn the why to the content, rather than the basic facts, so they fully can absorb and understand what they're learning.

I feel as though the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to give them the confidence and curiosity to learn more themselves.

Once that passion and fire…

Local Reviews

Thanh has increased my daughter's confidence in her maths ability. She has a no nonsense but fun approach that keeps a teenager positive about continuing tutoring. My daughter likes that Thanh has different methods of teaching concepts that make more sense to her. And best of all she is positive about my daughters progress.

Inside Glen WaverleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Kye worked on long multiplication with two- and three-digit numbers (including zeroes) and was introduced to division using visual strategies.

Year 7 student Elle focused on probability concepts, tackling practice questions involving multiple events and converting fractions to decimals as part of test preparation.

For Year 8, revision for Kye included rearranging algebraic equations and reviewing fundamental skills in bracket multiplication, helping consolidate methods for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student struggled to bring past tests for review, which meant missed chances to clarify recurring mistakes—"he couldn't check which algebra steps were lost in the test."

In Year 8 maths, forgetting to attempt set homework limited practice with foundational topics like BEDMAS and basic equations.

One Year 6 student often tried questions in their head without showing working; this hid errors when tackling area problems.

Across both junior and senior years, not recording confusing questions during school videos led to gaps that lingered into lessons.

Without these process tweaks, confusion quietly accumulates between sessions.

Recent Achievements

A Glen Waverley tutor noticed some great changes lately. Kye, a high school student, recently brought home his data test with 93%—a big leap after earlier trouble remembering statistics concepts, and he now checks his notes to solve new problems without prompting.

Elle, also in high school, picked up algebraic angle questions much faster than before; she's started explaining her working out aloud rather than guessing quietly.

Meanwhile, Trishelle (primary) has begun completing all her homework each week on her own initiative and points out exactly which maths areas still worry her before starting new tasks.

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 Glen Waverley Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Glen Waverley Secondary College.
