Their goals, their skill level, their learning style and their circumstances are all aspects that should be taken into consideration for each student. I believe a good relationship with the student and the parent goes a long way. It creates trust and builds…

Maths Tutor Upper Ferntree Gully, VIC
I think a maths tutor must help a student understand their work. A deep level understanding is good as it can give new perspectives to their work and to their endeavors. A surface level understanding is okay for replicating pre-set answers for a question, but a deeper understanding allows the person to view the question in a different way and to…

A tutor can first start by welcoming their student and getting to know them in order to make them feel comfortable and relaxed. This will make it easier for the tutor to better understand the student, but also easier for the student to freely ask questions. As well as holding the ability to teach, a maths tutor must have patience. Being a good…

Inside OlindaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Daniel focused on building speed and confidence with times tables using flashcards, and explored area and perimeter through practical problems.

In Year 10, Vien worked on refining practice essay arguments and re-wording sentences for clarity in preparation for an upcoming SAC.

Meanwhile, Year 12 Tanya reviewed a recent persuasive writing task by brainstorming main ideas and practiced analysing political speeches to identify persuasive techniques.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student preparing for English assessments sometimes avoids writing full essay drafts at home, instead focusing on brainstorming ideas during sessions. As one tutor noted, "the booklet is a work in progress, needs more added."

In Year 6 maths, Maya struggled to complete homework independently and often forgot to bring required materials from school, leading to gaps in practice—especially with times tables.

A Year 11 student working on language analysis tended to rush written responses without planning sentences, resulting in unclear arguments and missed marks under test conditions. This pattern left key feedback unaddressed before SAC deadlines.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Olinda recently saw a big shift in Maya's approach to maths: after weeks of hesitation, she now tackles division speed rounds without checking her notes and finished 10 questions in just 3.5 minutes—down from six minutes the week before.

In high school English, Lizzie moved beyond simply repeating ideas; last session, she analysed a complex poem independently and explained its deeper meanings with little prompting, something she'd avoided before.

Another high school student, Vien, who used to skip proofreading, has started spotting errors himself and reworking his paragraphs for clarity without being asked.

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 Monbulk Reading Room—or at your child's school (with permission), like Olinda Primary School.
