For a tutor to be an eloquent individual immersed with a wealth of knowledge it useless, if they do not frequently follow up with their students. It needs "regular maintenance" in car analogy. Tutoring is a marathon not a sprint. Tutors must hope to retain the students’ knowledge rather than sophisticatedly teach content without regular revision…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to build their confidence, not just academically, but in all areas of life. Personally, I found my tutors to be open and friendly, which made the learning experience not only more enjoyable and effective but also helped me build a strong relationship with them and grow in social…

Most people's perception of the job of a tutor is always to guide a student to be successful in the study/subject. Although that is an important role as a tutor, I find the most important aspect a tutor can do for a student is to further ignite their passion and interest in their subject. No matter how much a tutor can help, but if a student does…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to evoke the joy for the subject in the student. The student should enjoy doing the subject. which in turn leads to them studying the subject more and doing well. My strength as a tutor is that I enjoy the subjects I teach. I want the students to feel the same amount of enjoyment that I…

A tutor should be able to understand how they can help a student and should teach content or provide help in a way that suits their student's learning style. This would ensure that students are able to learn easier and with less stress. Students should not just be taught what to learn but also how to learn depending on the topic learnt, since it…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to teach the subject in their level of understanding and teach them the fundamentals. Sometimes it can be a challenge to explain some advanced theories especially to young minds but if we teach them to master the basics, then it would be easier for them to grasp future lessons. I…

It is important to help students to organize studies by preparing a timetable.

Help them to believe they can do it. Whether its solving a really hard math problem or understanding a scientific concept. Help the student to not necessarily hate the subject but see it as a pathway to help them if not further in life then to help them get through this tough period.

I personally consider the interactive and "adaptive" aspects of being a tutor to be the most important things a tutor can do for their student.

Moreover, being…

I consider that the most important thing is faith in their students. No matter how dire the situation is, a tutor's faith and belief in their student should not waver. As students are looking to better themselves, a tutor's belief in them is crucial as they look towards their mentor for guidance. This, in addition with a tutor's well researched…

Other than academics, I believe a tutor can also help build a student's social and behavioral skills, as they spent a large amount of time exercising their brain which can help apply to out-of-studies situations as well. I also believe tutors model a different way of thinking of things, outside of the traditional school-based curriculum there are…

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.
