I encourage and motivate students to excel and set a foundation for future studies, as well as providing an entertaining and educational environment suitable for each student. As a current student…

I believe the key purpose of a tutor is not only to improve a students grades but also encourage intellectual curiosity. Due to the individuality of each student a personalised experience must be created by tutors, through adapting teaching methods and lesson plans, to stimulate the unique minds of students. Further tutors must recognize the…

Science Tutor Ferny Creek, VIC
Improving the confidence of the student is key. The student should evolve to have more trust in themselves and their abilities and be able to apply this. The most important thing I could do for the student is to help them achieve their own personal best and be motivated to achieve. I am a good listener. I apply this to pinpointing the key areas…

Provide motivation and help develop a passion (or at least an appreciation) for Mathematics. Success would be more likely if the student is enjoying the subject matter. Furthering this; to teach the student confidence in their abilities and eventually be more independent in thier learning/study. It is also important that a tutor understand the…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is help the student learn to love learning. As well as that, I believe it's important to make the student feel more confident in their abilities and help them persevere through difficult tasks. I think my strengths include understanding, compassion, being able to explain a specific process in more…

Quick to answer question with confidence to lead the student to success. Apart from my strengths, that I do think are important qualities to have as a tutor, being reliable in terms of having an answer to a student's question is important. I am good at problem solving so will generally handle such a situation well, but experience can make…

We have been very happy with Ahmed’s support and assistance with Bridgette’s maths progress this year. She has most definitely benefited from his tuition.

Inside Menzies CreekTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 Isaac focused on analysing political cartoons for English, with close attention to scene analysis in The Princess Bride, while also revising key Finance concepts and using the finance solver for Maths.

Year 5 Daniel worked on times tables recall, practiced adding and subtracting fractions, and strengthened his understanding of 24-hour time.

Meanwhile, Year 8 Vien developed main arguments for a practice essay and refined sentence re-wording to improve clarity in preparation for upcoming SACs.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student's essay planning slowed under time pressure, with the tutor observing, "He needs to think and plan faster on his own as well due to the time limit during the actual SAC."

In Year 10 English, over-long sentences muddled meaning and made arguments harder to follow.

For a Year 7 maths student, homework was often incomplete—meaning valuable class time was spent relearning previously covered content rather than advancing.

Meanwhile, a primary student hesitated to attempt new subtraction concepts without prompting, leading to slower progress when unfamiliar material appeared.

In each case, these process challenges shaped what could be achieved in-session.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Menzies Creek noticed some real shifts this term. One high school student who'd struggled with structuring essays could now not only brainstorm relevant ideas but also spot when a paragraph became clearer after reworking it—something he found confusing before.

Another older student, after weeks of hesitating to ask for help, began communicating openly whenever she hit a roadblock in maths and was able to work through new questions on her own by the end of the session.

Meanwhile, a younger student who used to give up easily on tricky spelling words is now sounding them out first and even attempts unfamiliar ones aloud without prompting.
