Teaching math or English?! students can get that information from books, the internet, online courses and so many other ways.

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide them with the self-confidence that they're able to achieve their goals. Having that self-confidence makes students much more willing to study and work hard because they know that the goals they have set are actually achievable and aren't an insurmountable task.…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is making sure they have enough confidence and belief in themselves to replicate the work you do together, by themselves. This in the end is the most beneficial skill when it comes to school, because self doubt holds back so many students. Being able to break down concepts into bite…

Very happy with the results.

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.
