Tutors in Manahan include high-achieving graduates, experienced teachers, subject specialists, and passionate mentors from top Australian universities. Many have received academic awards or hold advanced degrees, and all share a genuine commitment to helping students succeed.
I believe that a tutor should be there for a student, to support and answer questions as a means of enriching their understanding. They should also be flexible to a student’s needs, such as creating plans around their current studies or providing extra materials to further their knowledge. I am flexible and adaptable, focusing on the student’s…

Be patient with them and encourage them to do their best. Consistency is key and results don't just appear overnight, trust the process and at the end all anyone can ask of you is to do your best. Another big thing is to always be honest with them, whether that means admitting that you don't know something (but can find out for them) or letting…
A tutor can customise personalised learning methods for different students, in order to maximise the efficiency of teaching. I consider that a tutor can impact a student's passion towards knowledge through his/ her personal enthusiasm for teaching.
Another important thing a tutor can do for a student is to provide studying strategies before…
I believe a tutor can impact student's lives by providing the foundation he needs for further studies. A student with a poor concept might some how pass but he will struggle in the future, or looses interest in that subject. Hence a tutor can strengthen that foundation, at the same time be a source of motivation and a be a big brother. My main…
I consider the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to understand what he/she is struggled, and pay attention and be patient about their situation and figure out the most suitable way to clarify their doubts.

The most important thing that a tutor must do is form a genuine connection with the student based on trust and integrity. This can be achieved through humour, motivation and sharing likes/dislikes. This allows for long-term teaching because of a comfortable environment allowing the student to perform to the best of their ability. My questioning…
The most crucial role of a tutor is to inspire and empower students. It's not just about imparting knowledge; it's about instilling confidence. Building a supportive, mentor-like relationship is vital. When students feel comfortable and valued, their learning potential soars. A tutor should adapt their teaching style to match the student's unique…
It is very important for the tutor to build their students confidence by celebrating their progress and encouraging their efforts. Tutors should also adapt their teaching style to their students specific needs. The tutor should also ensure their student's understanding is complete, that they aren't simply regurgitating information. I am patient, I…
Tutors fill a different role than teachers and parents, and that puts them in a unique position to support students. Personal relationships are foundational to student success -- the more connected a student feels to his or her tutor, the more the tutor creates trust and respect, essential ingredients for students to learn well. When a tutor…
In my view-point a tutor can highlight the problems of students and demosntrate other suitable methods to solve their issues and broaden their perspective. My goal is to determine the student's weakness and strengths,and through this help them reach their goal. Depending on the students, I will differentiate instructions to support the distinctive…
In my point of view, students and tutors must be like a friends so that tutor can teach and student can learn easily. Similarly, every tutor needs to be prepared before they enter in classroom to teach because it will help tutors to express their views in such a way that students can learn and understand easily. Friendly, Responsible,

To make the student comfortable enough.
For example, when the tutor has explained something multiple times but the student still couldn’t grasp the topic, the student is still free to ask the teacher about the topic again. I am extremely patient and tend to begin with the chapters that are related to the next one. This way, the student doesn't…

What I consider to be the most important things a tutor can do for a student are build self-confidence, without this they will not believe in themselves and their ability, and therefore will not make the improvements they are capable of, inspire them to create their own goals, both long-term and short term, big and small, and of course, help…
Try to understand and listen to them and make them feel important. Also make them responsible and how to deal with problems can be the best thing a tutor can impart to a student. Patience, Tolerant, Active listener, Fun, Responsible, Mature, Realist are some of the qualities that I think are necessary that should be present in a tutor like…
I had a tutor in high school for my VCE studies. I learned that a tutor must be a supportive figure that guides their student with compassion and patience. The demeanor of my tutor relived the stress of studying and gave me the confidence to attempt difficult problems that I would have given up on. Students at any year level will often feel…
I believe the most important thing is to explain in a way that the student understands. For example, with some of my students I would use a lot of analogies to help them get an initial grasp of a concept, whereas with others I will explain the underlying principles of a topic in great detail, as thats what helps that specific student understand a…
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.
What they say about our tutoring
Emily is doing very well and Melanie is great. Emily is really comfortable with her and although it is early days she is improving. I am really happy with Melanie and the progress so far.
In a nut shell, we are very happy with Tamara and Laura's progress so far. Her teaching techniques are excellent, exactly what Laura needed & to top it off she is very well mannered and very patient. You can also see that she genuinely enjoys teaching/educating her students. It's a shame there are not more teachers like her!
We have seen improvements in Cheyena's work and results, Aaminah has been really good and we are pleased, thank you.
