The most important things a tutor can do for a student are to motivate them and make them laugh, to be a buddy who happens to be helping them with their school work, to acknowledge them with current, expand their grasp of the concepts and can be a influence in some tangible, positive way, helping them make essential connections, or developing…

The most important things are to raise their interest and help them learn the knowledge. Before imparting the knowledge, it is essential to know the junior and their mindset if they are interested in following your mentoring. I think my strengths are my empathy and persistence. I will make the junior and I understand each other, and we share a…

As a tutor, providing students with a positive and productive environment to develop their skills and knowledge within Maths is essential for student development. The tutor needs to be someone a student can ask questions of when they're unsure about how to proceed and additionally, tutors need to be able to provide targeted and necessary feedback…

Besides from general knowledge of the subjects, understanding the strengths as well as weaknesses of the students is a must for personal tutors. We can develop the most effective way to teach if we are fully aware of these factors. Also, one of the most important things a tutor can do is to be patient and considerate with their students. This way…

listening to students and finding out what they want out of the sessions and how they prefer to learn. By doing so we can offer a method of learning that's customized to them as an individual and not as a class. Learning occurs in many formats and a tutor should provide a format that isn't inherently applied in schools - aiding in the…

It is important that tutors take measures to understand a student's strengths and weaknesses within a subject and to ensure their advice is suited to these capabilities. Tutoring should directly meet a student's needs, rather than implementing a one size fits all approach. A tutor should also supply a student with resources and advice that will…

The single most important aspect for a tutor is to be able to keep the student's attention; losing their focus implicates the loss of any further progress in the topic at hand and their faith in how much you can help them as a mentor. Maintaining their concentration throughout the duration of the session, while tiring at times, pays off. I believe…

Being Non-judgmental with a desire to help; does not make assumptions about students; treats all students as individuals who want to learn and have the ability to learn no matter what their personal background or circumstances 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.

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.
