A tutor should assess the student's strengths and weaknesses, and tailor their approach to meet the student's individual learning needs. A tutor should provide clear and concise explanations of concepts, using examples and analogies where necessary to help the student understand. I can break down complex concepts and explain them in a clear and…

Instilling confidence is the most important thing I could do as a tutor for my student. Because my end goal is for them to believe in their ability to learn new material even without my guidance. Once your student feels confident, they tend to perform holistically better. Even in subjects they were already doing well in to begin with. My ability…

Particularly with English - and Shakespeare is the worst offender - students can…

The process of learning is what may vary from person to person. My core strength would be the ability to explain any concept, no matter how complex. I can break it down to simple bits…

Cassandra has told me that her new tutor DJ has an excellent teaching style. He shows her every step of a maths problem and encourages questions. DJ also goes to the effort of making up personalised worksheets for her based on her maths book. Thank you, DJ, the effort is appreciated.

Inside South KingsvilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Ayaan worked through linear graphs by finding equations and intercepts, as well as applying Pythagoras' theorem to calculate triangle sides.

In Year 10, Lily focused on quadratic techniques such as completing the square and practiced with past exam questions to solidify her understanding.

For Year 11, Marcus tackled differentiation, including applications to maximum and minimum problems, and reviewed how to solve cubic equations using the factor theorem.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student repeatedly left homework incomplete, particularly in algebra practice; as one tutor noted, "she needs to finish practice sample test questions."

In Year 11 Maths Methods, revision often focused on easier problems, with skipped harder textbook exercises—this limited readiness for exam-style questions.

A Year 7 learner avoided attempting unfamiliar trigonometry tasks, preferring to revisit solved examples instead of tackling new ones.

When a senior student forgot to bring previous test papers for review, valuable feedback opportunities were lost. This led to last-minute cramming rather than steady progress and undermined confidence before assessments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in South Kingsville recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to avoid asking questions now pausing the lesson to explain where she got stuck on last week's homework, then tackling logarithm problems more independently.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student who previously struggled with graphing trig functions worked through practice tests and confidently approached tougher tangent graphs without prompting.

In Year 4, one student who was hesitant to participate at first is now actively answering questions during lessons and learning from mistakes, showing a new willingness to engage each session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Miranda is a wonderful, professional and patient tutor. The first day Marcus met her he opened up to her and feels really comfortable. He is so happy and enjoys tutoring.I think Miranda is a great fit for Marcus .

Tom was absolutely amazing. He was able to create a great connection with Grace immediately. It was the first time I've seen her smile while doing math! He really provided some achievable challenges and she is actually excited for her next session.

Belle has benefited immensely from Amir's tuition and she has regained her confidence in both English and Maths.

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 Yarraville Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Margaret Mary's School.
