Physics Tutor Upper Ferntree Gully, VIC
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 physics tutor understand…

Physics Tutor Rowville, VIC
The tutor could make the student more comfortable with the topic at hand and put him at ease, and make the student understand that going through difficulty when learning is perfectly normal. My strengths are patience, commitment, being as approachable and friendly as I can, and willingness to listen to doubts and issues from the people I'm…

Physics Tutor
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…

Inside SelbyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Daniel practised times tables and built confidence with more complex multiplication, then moved on to adding and subtracting fractions as well as reading 24-hour time.

Year 10 student Isaac focused on analysing cinematic devices in The Princess Bride and developed his skills in political cartoon analysis using scene workbooks.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Vien prepared ideas and a main argument for a practice essay and refined responses for an upcoming English SAC by practising concise re-wording of sentences.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student hesitated to expand on ideas in English essays, sometimes leaving planning unfinished—he needs to think and plan faster on his own as well due to the time limit during the actual SAC.

In Year 8 maths, another student skipped homework practice after lessons, which led to forgotten steps when tackling multi-step problems later.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student's spelling errors and hard-to-read handwriting slowed down both their essay writing and comprehension tasks; paragraphs often took extra time just to get through.

When exam stress hit in VCE English Language, fear of making mistakes led one student to avoid original examples in essay responses altogether.

Recent Achievements

A Selby tutor recently noticed one high school student who, after weeks of struggling to clarify her ideas in essays, was able to draft a well-structured introduction and now actively proofreads for clarity instead of skipping that step.

Another secondary student surprised himself by recalling details from earlier assessments during a quiz and confidently explained the strategies he used on his SAC—something he hesitated to do before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student has begun tackling new maths topics with less prompting, even choosing to try harder multiplication questions independently by the end of the session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Alex and Peter seem like a compatible match and Alex says that he has found the sessions helpful so far. We hope to see some solid gains for Alex in the coming term.

James seems to be grasping what David is teaching him. He is very comfortable with David.

I think Dalila will be a perfect tutor for Isabella - great attitude, very supportive, friendly. I hope she will stay for a long time.

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