Making them feel safe when answering questions, even if they get the answer wrong. Because it's learning from your mistakes that allow you to learn. Also teaching them to be independent learners as it is very important for tertiary studies. Just teaching them skills they need in life to make sure they succeed further on in life. Patience,…

As a tutor, it is likely that there are external work/family commitments but I believe if a tutor has specifically chosen this job, they have implicitly promised, ad should understand their responsibility to assist their students to the best of their capability. Many a times I have witnessed tutors exploiting the desperation VCE students possess…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be understanding.

I believe that my strengths are my compassion and patience. This then…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to understand them.

Ask the student any questions they have. Provide notes/examples step by step so that the student can learn and ask any questions about why that is so. Always be there to support the…

A tutor can listen to the student before giving advice or teaching. Listening is important as it allows a tutor to understand why the student may be having difficulties grasping subjects or topics and choose alternative strategies to help the student. Explaining a topic over and over again often doesn't work and a tutor needs to be open to hearing…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to go beyond what the student need, to go beyond just teaching and normally teaching content to the students.

Inside HarkawayTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Zarleah practised multiplication and division, focusing on worded problems to strengthen her understanding of number operations.

In Year 8, Neva worked on writing lab reports for chemical changes and revised the properties of elements in preparation for a science test, using recent class experiments as examples.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Dom tackled genetics topics such as Punnett squares—including dihybrid crosses—and reviewed key terms like alleles and chromosomes for an upcoming biology assessment.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student struggled to keep her notes organized during Biology, making it harder to refer back when preparing for tests; as a tutor observed, "I would continue to encourage Dom to keep organised notes—especially moving into Year 12."

In Chemistry, another senior student was caught off guard by not knowing the next topic in advance, which led to time spent guessing rather than consolidating knowledge.

Meanwhile, a primary student working on large numbers sometimes wrote "102" instead of "120," showing how confusion with number formation slowed her progress and added frustration mid-task.

Recent Achievements

One Harkaway tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to hesitate when stuck on statistics problems now confidently asks for clarification as soon as something feels unclear, leading to much smoother sessions.

In another case, a high schooler working on lab reports moved from not knowing the structure at all to independently drafting several sections correctly without prompts.

Meanwhile, a younger student who previously mixed up times tables has started using factors when solving tricky fraction problems—a strategy she avoided before—and just completed a set of worded division questions entirely on her own.

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 Bunjil Place Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Harkaway Primary School.
