The most important lesson a tutor can hand down to a student is the confidence to raise their hand against any topic or situation they consider unfair or questionable. Self-confidence and self-worth is very important to ensure that each student grow into mature independent adults, who are able to accept the ups and downs that they will have to…

The single most important aspect for a tutor is to be able to keep the student's attention; losing their focus implicates the loss of any further progress in the topic at hand and their faith in how much you can help them as a mentor. Maintaining their concentration throughout the duration of the session, while tiring at times, pays off. I believe…

In my opinion, the most important things that a tutor can do for a student would be explaining concepts to them in ways that the individual student can understand as well as aiding them in memorisation and application of the concept tutored. Moreover, I strongly believe that it is extremely important for a tutor to leave a student without self…

Besides from general knowledge of the subjects, understanding the strengths as well as weaknesses of the students is a must for personal tutors. We can develop the most effective way to teach if we are fully aware of these factors. Also, one of the most important things a tutor can do is to be patient and considerate with their students. This way…

Local Reviews

Really happy with the level of customer service and support. Happy with our tutor and how he has bonded with our daughter.
Emma Jones, Manifold Heights

Inside Manifold HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Eliz worked on simplifying fractions and converting them to mixed numbers, then practised adding and subtracting these using examples from her workbook.

For Year 9, Olivia focused on solving quadratic equations and interpreting parabolic graphs, reinforcing concepts with graph sketching.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ethan explored differentiation using the chain rule and tackled problems involving derivatives of power functions, applying these skills to exam-style questions.

Recent Challenges

Guessing answers instead of showing working in division was observed with a Year 4 student, making it difficult to spot and address misunderstandings.

In Year 8 mathematics, a student often forgot key formulas, leading to repeated confusion when tackling algebraic rearrangement tasks—she needed reminders for basic steps.

A senior (Year 11) struggled with organization during graphing exercises; forgetting to bring necessary materials meant less time spent actually practicing graphs.

In English (Year 6), perfectionism around spelling led one student to erase frequently, slowing her writing and sapping confidence as she drafted short responses.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Manifold Heights noticed a Year 10 student who used to get stuck on chain rule differentiation now tackling those problems independently and explaining her steps out loud—something she avoided before.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student recently began asking for help when stuck on rearranging equations instead of sitting quietly or guessing, marking a real shift in engagement.

In primary sessions, one younger learner who previously hesitated to read aloud is now volunteering to take the first paragraph during English practice. Last week, she even finished all her multiplication tables without any prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you for the follow up. Sinan is working out fine. He has connected with Matthew well. Matthew has indicated that Sinan is explaining some of the mathematical concepts better than what his teacher is explaining, which is a good start. Hopefully this will translate into a better maths grade.

Thank you for your e-mail.  I have spoken to Wen from the beginning about how he finds the tutoring with Charles.  Wen advised that he is happy with Charles as Charles is very kind and very understanding tutor. Wen said Charles communicate with ease and that makes it easier for Wen to understand.  Wen said he likes that Charles teaches him the faster and straight forward methods as it is less confusing.  Wen said he has been attempting harder questions with Charles which in turn gives him more confidence to attempt them.

We are very happy with Harriet , thanks. Mikayla has found it very easy to relate to her , and Harriet is always approachable and responsive. As it has only been a couple of weeks and is now school holidays , we haven't got any school results to go on however I am sure we will start to see results in this area. We had a negative experience with tutoring in the past (different organisation) , so we were reluctant to go down this path again , however I think we will have success with Harriet.

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 Geelong West Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Holy Spirit Parish School.
