I think the most important thing that a tutor can do for their student is remaining patient and continue to persevere with the content. In my experience, if I didn't understand a concept or was struggling with a question, it was extremely helpful when my tutor continued to talk me through the topic and didn't get frustrated at me for not…

It is very important as a tutor to understand your student. Be his silent friend and connect with him. Read his mental abilities, his interest, observe his qualities and disabilities, his way of learning things. And then try to impart the teaching depending on all these factors. Each student is different and so is the method of teaching. Teaching…

I believe that a tutor should be able to build relationships with a student where the students are provided with an environment where they are heard and observed.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to always try to understand their student. Everyone learns differently, needs help in different ways, and faces different problems.

Inside Holden HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Lily worked on identifying and comparing fractions, including finding equivalent fractions using visual models, and practiced converting uncommon denominators by finding the lowest common multiple.

Year 7 student Abiola focused on surface area calculations for cubes and rectangular prisms, measuring real-life objects to apply area formulas, as well as quick strategies for multiplying by multiples of ten.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Emma explored linear equations—linking tables, graphs, and equations—and was introduced to basic trigonometry concepts through right-angled triangles.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student in Maths repeatedly guessed on challenging multiple-choice questions instead of working through them, as noted: "he was using trial and error to progress." This habit meant that deeper understanding wasn't developed, particularly for harder algebra and geometry tasks.

In Year 10 linear equations, another student struggled to manipulate y=mx+c due to gaps in organizing steps—missing connections between graph features and equation forms.

For a Year 5 writing task, one student's bare responses lacked descriptive detail because she avoided revisiting the storyline.

When homework (like design projects) was left incomplete in Years 9–11, it slowed skill-building for later assessments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Holden Hill noticed a Year 9 student who had previously needed constant prompting with surface area formulas start to identify and label dimensions independently, even using tricks for multiplying by tens without help—she finished the lesson saying, "this makes sense now!"

In Year 7, another student who used to hesitate when working through statistics assignments is now confidently calculating means and identifying outliers on her own.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student recently shifted from guessing during times tables activities to asking for clarification whenever she's unsure, making it through a tough multiplication quiz with only minimal support.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Hayden is really gelling with Rohan and after last weeks session he said “best hour I've spent all week”! So far so good. Rohan has turned up on time and is so organised and professional. All going really well.

The tutor you sent me on Sat is absolutely excellent. Pls don't change Mina. My kids feel really comfortable with her and finally we feel we have a winning formula.

It's got off to a great start, Beaux really likes Taran and she likes the way Taran explains things and shows her new ways of working things out. Taran has boosted her confidence and Beaux is actually able to do a lot more than we thought.

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