As a tutor, I believe my most important role is to help students truly understand the subject, not just memorize answers. I aim to adapt my teaching style to fit each student’s unique learning needs and pace. It's important to me to create a supportive environment where they feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. I focus on…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is encourage a love for learning. By providing a safe learning space, it is imperative that a tutor encourages their students to ask questions and to be inquisitive, as this means the students will approach learning with an open mindset rather than a closed one. Furthermore, it is important…

I feel the most important and most overlooked aspect of being a tutor is knowing how to step back and reinforce a student's independence, so that when they're no longer with a tutor they're able to securely access all of the knowledge they've gained. I think my critical thinking skills and interpersonal communication skills are my biggest…

I think the most important thing a tutor can be is willing to help. When a tutor genuinely wants to see a student thrive and improve, it significantly increases the quality of their service and helps students feel heard and valued. This is far more effective than when a tutor's effort is slack. I can communicate with individuals clearly and…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to help the student recognise their own potential. Alongside teaching them, it is just as important to ensure they realise they are capable of figuring things out on their own too (of course with some support!). This enables them to try their best and set the highest goals they can which is what I would…

As a tutor, I believe that the most important thing to do for a student is to find a way to explain concepts until it is finally able to "click" with students.

Inside JacanaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Mary worked on adding fractions with different denominators and tackled factors and multiples, finishing a tricky homework sheet together.

Year 8 student Bill focused on reducing fractions through targeted practice and discussed division in relation to multiplication, using examples from recent lessons.

For Year 9, Alex revised multiplying and dividing negative numbers, including a spelling test and vocabulary worksheet for literacy reinforcement within the session.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often left English essays incomplete for homework, particularly after receiving a disappointing mark; as noted, "he seemed distressed and avoided starting the next essay," which led to missed opportunities for feedback and improvement.

In Year 7 Maths, another student consistently forgot to complete assigned revision sheets before a fractions test—this meant class time was spent on catch-up rather than tackling new material.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student preferred to attempt only familiar problems in algebra revision, shying away from more challenging questions and limiting exposure to essential concepts needed for exam readiness.

Recent Achievements

One Jacana tutor recently noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student who used to avoid asking for help—now, he openly voices questions when stuck on essay planning and even suggests what he'd like to review next.

A high schooler tackling long division had previously needed lots of guidance but can now finish complex worded problems independently after practicing with homework.

In a primary session, a Year 4 student who once got frustrated by spelling mistakes now takes them in stride and finishes tests with far fewer corrections, even celebrating when he spelled most tricky words right.

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 Hume Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like SEDA College (Victoria) - Basketball Broadmeadows.
