Lovisha
Tutor Dennington, VIC
It is, understanding the strengths and weaknesses of the student. No person is perfect, but learning should be every person's right. Therefore, if a teacher can talk and understand the attributes of a student through qualitative and quantitative measures, that's the best they can do. 1) The capability to pass my message coherently.
2) Breaking…

Seamus
Tutor Dennington, VIC
A different voice to listen to. I think that the student listening to someone other than their own teacher over and over again is important. It allows them to see things differently and enjoy what they are doing more. Making the student feel comfortable. I am very approachable and easy to get along with and this makes it easier for the students. I…

Inside IllowaTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
