By being adaptable you are able to modify your teaching techniques into ways your students will learn best. By providing a positive, safe and comfortable learning environment along with adapting to a students needs, I…

A tutor must not only teach children the subject, but also must prepare them to handle real world situations when it comes to applying what they have learnt in class. We as tutors must give them some practice of those types of situations. I am very friendly with kids, and I want them to be open and always let me know if they understand or not, and…

I believe that an english tutor is a role model for many students so, he/she should should always think before reacting to any situation that how it’s going to effect the students who are watching him/her. I believe that students can learn way of living from their tutor so one should always help them in learning good moral values and help them…

The best thing an english tutor can do for a student is treat them not as a child, but as a mature and capable student, who is willing to learn. Students learn in different ways and at different levels, and that is so important to understand, to ensure both the tutor and student get the best possible outcome after tutoring sessions.

A tutor should be polite and should never get mad at students as being a student they don't know the things and they come to the tutor for learning. so, the tutor should first understand the student as different students have different minds (sharp and slow) and then teach them according to their requirements.

The most important thing an english tutor can teach a student is how to learn.

I believe patience is important as everyone learns and works at a different pace so being able to cope with that is important. Moreover, it is crucial that an english tutor is open-minded and non-judgemental as the concept of learning is different for everyone. Further, a tutor should be organized and behave professionally to set out the aura of a…

Local Reviews

Tutoring seems to be going well. I think both Matthew and Abbey are starting to settle into a routine. Abbey has started to apply some of the methods Matthew has shown her to school work. She has come home from school a couple of times now, saying she was asked a question during maths time and got it right. Which, of course, she was very happy about! Within the next few weeks, I will receive Abbey’s report for semester 1. I will show Matt, so he has even more understanding of her needs. I’m looking forward to seeing what they achieve in the coming months.

Inside SeaholmeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Madison worked on consolidating skills in Pythagoras' theorem and solving worded problems involving side lengths, as well as applying trigonometric ratios to find unknown sides in triangles.

For Year 8, Rohan focused on expanding and factorising binomial expressions using distribution methods, along with factorising by grouping.

In Year 5, Emily practised rounding decimals and rounding numbers to significant figures for improved accuracy in calculations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student often relied on a calculator to identify gradients and intercepts, which limited her grasp of linear equations—"she could solve for x when y=0 but needed the calculator for reassurance."

In Year 12, one learner hesitated to show algebraic working, sometimes erasing steps rather than leaving mistakes visible; this made it harder to catch sign errors in factorisation.

For a Year 5 student, untidy written work during division tasks led to misaligned digits and confusion.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 struggled to keep track of materials and occasionally forgot completed homework, causing last-minute stress before lessons.

Recent Achievements

One Seaholme tutor noted that Aida, a Year 11 student, moved from feeling uncertain with linear graphs to confidently recognising and plotting them using the y=mx+c rule; she also started developing her own plan for tackling upcoming assessments.

In another session, Madison (Year 10) showed new independence by asking targeted questions about trigonometry, then applied trig ratios herself to find unknown angles—something she previously hesitated to attempt without guidance.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once guessed at times tables now talks through problems aloud and works out new multiplication facts by building from ones she already knows.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are very Happy with Pareise. Zoe looks forward to her lessons with her. Pareise is always on time and speaks o Zoe in a well-mannered and appropriate way.

Both Nicholas and Natasha are very happy with Mitchell and lessons are progressing beautifully.

El Abed has been in touch with me directly and we have booked a session for next week. I would just like to say once again how impressed I am with your level of customer service and the efficiency with which you have handled my queries. Im addition, I would like to say the say the same about El Abed. He has responded to my queries promptly and with professionalism.

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 Altona Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Seaholme Primary School.
