As a tutor, I believe the most important trait is to be inspiring to those you are tutoring. Although a tutor can be successful and have the skills required to help their student, they cannot achieve much without inspiring their student. It is easy for students to disengage from tutors who are not inspiring even if they are trying to help their…

Needless to say, students, especially those in their teenage years tend to struggle with their hormones and volatile emotions. The best a tutor can do is to never give up on a student and be understanding of their situation. Once that trust is built, it creates a healthier and more productive space for learning. In my opinion, a great teacher,…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, is to teach to individual learning needs, not all students learn the same so how could you expect to teach them the same?

I think giving a student a sense of confidence in their own abilities is very important as a tutor; ultimately, every student has some limitations, but to push those boundaries a little forward, a student must find the inner confidence to try a little harder, as opposed to accepting their present ability as final. As a tutor, showing a student…

Inside Long ForestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Sam focused on applying the area formulas for various shapes and practiced using Pythagoras' Theorem to solve right-angled triangle problems.

In Year 10, Emily worked through interpreting displacement-time and velocity-time graphs as well as solving equations of motion for constant acceleration, including calculations with F = ma.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex reviewed exothermic and endothermic reactions in chemistry, balanced chemical equations, and explored the construction and function of galvanic cells.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student struggled to show working in division problems when converting fractions to decimals, leading to confusion in multi-step questions; as the tutor observed, "the process is not shown," which made error-tracing difficult.

In Year 12 Biology, one student hesitated to answer follow-up questions and rarely used correct terminology—he needed repeated prompting before attempting explanations on topics like cellular respiration.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 maths student consistently avoided writing out calculations, instead doing them mentally and seeking constant reassurance rather than building independent confidence.

Homework was often incomplete or forgotten, especially among Years 8–9 students tackling percentage and factorisation tasks.

Recent Achievements

One Long Forest tutor noticed a big change in a Year 10 student who used to stay quiet during biology sessions; now, she's actively asking questions when confused and taking her own notes on tricky topics.

In Year 12 chemistry, another student has started arriving with self-prepared notes and takes initiative by attempting all homework before the lesson—something she previously skipped if unsure.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner who often lost her place while reading longer passages was able to read out loud and answer comprehension questions for an entire story without drifting off or skipping words.

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