Science Tutor Emerald, VIC
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…

Science Tutor Launching Place, VIC
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is show them what they are capable of. Everyone is capable of achieving greatness and being able to help someone realise their potential is the best thing a tutor can do. I have the ability to connect with students and explain difficult concepts in a fun and memorable way. Additionally,…

Panos has a great rapport with my son. He explains concepts well and is very patient. Although my son has only had 5 sessions so far he has shown improvement. Very happy that we made the choice to use Panos as a tutor.

Inside NanganaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Mehar reviewed long division and multiplication with a focus on decimal numbers, then explored area calculations for rectangles and the use of compass directions to understand angles.

In Year 8, James worked through probability in everyday contexts and practised finding the highest common factor (HCF) and lowest common multiple (LCM) between two integers.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Sophie revised key measurement terminology for circles—such as circumference, radius, diameter—and was introduced to the number pi using diagrams.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student avoided unfamiliar tasks in maths, focusing on topics he already knew. This meant new concepts like scale and percentages were left until last, as the tutor noted, "He tries to avoid harder tasks and prioritises known topics."

In Year 11 English, a student's essay responses tended to latch onto one idea quickly instead of exploring broader perspectives—this limited depth and originality when tackling persuasive writing.

Meanwhile, a primary student did not attempt homework independently during the week, only completing assignments with guidance in lessons. Without regular solo practice or risk-taking in revision, skills plateaued quietly.

Recent Achievements

One Nangana tutoring session saw a Year 10 student, Vien, independently proofread and improve his own paragraph after discussing why the first draft was unclear—something he'd previously rushed through without checking.

In Year 8 maths, Maya finished her division speed round in just two minutes, down from over eight at the start of term; she even set herself a goal to complete it with zero mistakes next week.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who used to freeze when facing tricky words now attempts to sound them out every time instead of defaulting to "I don't know."

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are extremely happy with Estephanie.   She has managed to hit exactly the right note.   We are just looking for Isabel to understand some basic principles and Estaphie is managing this with patience and skill.    I cannot speak highly enough of Estaphanie.

I am happy with the way things have started up.  Peter has already had an improvement in his Maths test result and I am hoping that this will also be the case with his recent SAC.

Thank you for your follow up email. Yes it all seems to be going along fine with Ben. I think Cassie is finding helpful and slowly building her confidence again. She was quite a bit behind and struggling so I understand it will probably take a little while. She had a maths test last week which Ben appeared to provide a thorough preparation for her.

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 Emerald Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Fernbrook School.
