Engineering Studies Tutor Doveton, VIC
A tutor should be able to place themselves in the students shoes and understand the difficulty of pressure placed on them, if any. A tutor can also try and make creative ways of learning maths. My communication skills gained from my mentoring in…

Mario

Engineering Studies Tutor Doveton, VIC
Since this is a 1-on-1 tutorial, the tutor must give full attention to the student. Also to find ways to make sessions enjoyable but not to the point of sacrificing the time for teaching. And again to be patient so that the student can fully understand the topics being discussed. My best quality as a tutor would be my patience. I know a lot of…

Engineering Studies Tutor Hampton Park, VIC
I believe that the most important things a teacher can do for a student is provide the time, patience and respect to bring out the best in them. I believe it is the teacher’s job to act as a mentor and motivate the student to learn and grow. I believe that my strengths as a tutor would be the ability to listen to students' questions and provide…

Engineering Studies Tutor Belgrave, VIC
As a tutor, the most integral thing for a student to succeed is their interest in studying. Unless a student does not want to learn and succeed, they cannot achieve this, so it is important for tutors to inspire and encourage students during sessions. Explaining concepts to students, listening to students, and making classes fun through enthusiasm…

We have had two tutor sessions with Rhys and thus far we have been very happy with everything and more importantly Stewart is quite comfortable with Rhys and is finding the sessions helpful.

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.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Pippa is very happy with Dexter. Her tutoring style is very effective and Pippa had excellent results in her mid-year exams.

Sam's first session with Wahidah went really well. He really liked her and responded well to her teaching.

Riria had a great first session with Derek. Riria found Derek to be patient and clear with his communication making it easier for Riria to get her head around what is being asked of her in regards to her physics lessons and assessments.

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.
