Modern History Tutor South Geelong, VIC
The most important things a tutor can do for their students is make themselves available to them when they are needed and to make them feel supported. Showing patience with them and confidence in them gives them an added boost to their own confidence knowing that someone believes in them. I believe my strengths as a tutor are my patience and…

Modern History Tutor Wandana Heights, VIC
I believe understanding a student on a deeper level and giving what he/ she needs. That could be motivation to move ahead , assurance of being there with them , confidence to explore interests and lastly a friend so that they can openly tell if they are not understanding something. I have always loved kids and I completely understand there are…

Local Reviews

The lesson went well with Alex. He had a lovely approach with Kieran, patient and methodical. For the more complex questions he was prompt to come back to Kieran by email with some suggested formula when he didn't have the solutions on the spot, which was much appreciated.

Inside South GeelongTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Eliz focused on double-digit multiplication and long division, then moved into understanding factors through practical exercises.

For Year 8, James tackled linear equations using the y = mx + c format and progressed to solving simultaneous equations by both substitution and elimination methods.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Olivia worked intensively on calculus topics such as applying the chain rule and quotient rule for differentiation, alongside finding tangents and stationary points in exam-style questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, one student often forgot to bring her books and calculator home, which meant her tutor couldn't track progress on Pythagoras' Theorem or help with specific classroom gaps.

A Year 11 student tackling calculus was observed "skipping a step or going too quickly," especially when anti-differentiating, leading to missed marks on problems with fractions.

For a younger learner in Year 3 English, hesitance in reading aloud led to flat intonation—pauses at commas and question inflections were sometimes missed.

When materials are missing or routines are unsettled, targeted feedback is delayed and small misunderstandings can snowball into test anxiety.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in South Geelong noticed a Year 11 student who had previously hesitated with differentiation now methodically eliminates incorrect answers on multiple choice problems and confidently uses her calculator to check gradients—an impressive step up from earlier sessions.

Another high school student reported feeling ahead in class this year, having worked on algebra topics during tutoring before they were covered at school, and recently compiled all her notes independently for an upcoming test.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who used to second-guess herself when reading aloud now finishes passages smoothly and even asks for more challenging words each session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Yes we are very happy with Jacinta. She is lovely and Emily likes her. She seems to be very suited to Emily, as she has a very practical approach to helping Emily with her Math's, and understood straight away what Emily's basic needs were. We look forward to Jacinta tutoring Emily this year.

The tutoring with Alex is going very well - Sophie is enjoying it and learning too!

MIchael has enjoyed Nathan's tutoring sessions. My son found Nathan's theory far more informative and much clearer then his current maths teacher. Michael connected well with Nathan.

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 Chilwell Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Geelong South Primary School.
