Tutor Hawthorn East, VIC
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is help them achieve their dreams and goals at their best ability. I believe I understand the pressure from parents and expectations from yourself to achieve the best results you can. Thus, I believe tutoring students is a task designed to help relieve that stress students feel while…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is not only to teach them what to think, but show them how they can independently develop their own original ideas - how they think. This is particularly true for humanities subjects such as English, where it may be challenging for a student to develop their own ideas and write essays…

I think the most important thing is to be supportive no matter what. Curiosity is in everyone and us as tutors should help the students to embrace their curiosity and take it further. Our job as tutors revolve around giving that helping hand, a small push, which brings the students to their full potential. I am a strong advocate for going beyond -…

Responding to students need, both academic and personal.

By personal need, I mean that the tutor should adjust the style of…

To teach them life skills such as being able to add, subtract, tell the time, spellings, nouns, pronouns etc which will come in very handy and is used in everyday life. I am pretty good in Maths and English so those are my strongest subjects…

I think being prepared to explain things in multiple ways to a student until they grasp an idea is crucial to learning. Having enough practice material to ensure they have a proper grasp of the task they're doing and repeating that process so they don't forget the skills they've learnt. I am very patient and I have always been able to explain…

One of the most important thing I think is fostering a positive and encouraging learning environment.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for students is to teach them how to learn by themselves. I used to have a math tutor and he showed me how he approached problems, not just simply solved them and gave the answers. If I just give the students this knowledge, that would be the only thing they know. If I give them the tools and…

Inside Hawthorn EastTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 Jaidan reviewed all operations with fractions—including multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction—by working through exercises from his textbook.

Year 8 Isabella focused on graphing linear functions and calculating gradients, including a quick online discussion to clarify concepts while recovering from illness.

For Year 10 Ethan, the session addressed probability notation and diagrams along with set theory basics, using simple examples to build understanding.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, one student often rushed through working without writing steps, particularly in algebra and negative numbers; as a tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

In Year 11 methods, another found it challenging to keep track of brackets and correct notation when sketching graphs or working with power functions—missing these details led to confusion during revision.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student's long division answers became muddled because steps weren't clearly set out on paper. This meant extra time was spent searching for small mistakes instead of building new understanding.

Recent Achievements

One Hawthorn East tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who, after previously struggling with structuring extended answers in maths, now independently organises solutions and adapts quickly between topics like indices and algebraic equations.

A Year 10 student showed a real shift by reviewing errors from a recent test and then accurately applying Pythagoras' theorem during follow-up questions—something he hesitated with before.

In primary sessions, a younger learner who had difficulty telling time last month is now confidently drawing clock faces for set times and uses visual strategies to solve division problems without prompting.

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