Tom

Tutor Strathfieldsaye, VIC
I believe being patient and considerate of each student is the most important thing for a tutor to do because this will make the learning space better for the student. If the student feels like their tutor is genuinely caring for their education then they will give their best. I can gauge when a student is or isn't understanding a concept, and can…

Tutor Strathdale, VIC
Ensure that the student has the basics down pat so that they can spend more time in the classroom dealing with any advanced concepts that require a fluency with the basics. I think I can explain things in a casual way that gets the big idea of a concept across, and to identify weak spots in students'…

Tutor Flora Hill, VIC
Not only is it important to explain concepts well to students, it is also important to create a foundation for students to bounce back on, so that they can understand how to have enhanced learning for the long term. A good tutor should be inspiring so that students will be motivated to be life-long learners. I believe my experience with teaching…

Tutor Kennington, VIC
The most important thing for a tutor is not just about telling the student the right answers but about finding different ways of solving problems. Tutors need to help students develop their understanding of mathematical concepts' properties and shift from concrete materials to abstract concepts. My strengths are knowing the content and knowing my…

Tutor Bendigo, VIC
The ability to understand a student and their learning style is something I highly value in a tutor. In school classes where they are often one of many, they may find that the teaching style may not work for them and that they cannot achieve their goals. In a tutoring scenario, we are able to cater to them more specifically, to be intuitive about…

A tutor must always fully and wholly understand his content and always develop innovative ways to communicate the information to their students; meaning - don't copy the textbook on a power point, instead develop your own materials My recent conclusion of year 12 gives me fresh knowledge on the current study designs, the appropriate material…

Aside from teaching academics, it is important that the tutor understands the student and gives advice on how to be a better student such as being motivated, confident, and of course to see the benefits of the education that they have access to. My strengths as a tutor would be my patience and motivation. I am happy when my students enjoy what…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for students is to give them the confidence to believe in their abilities in order for them to view themselves as capable enough to learn new things, work hard and perform their best. This starts with the tutor identifying the student's area of need and working hard alongside them to improve it.…

Maitreyee is wonderful, reliable and friendly. My daughter is progressing in maths and we are very happy with her service. We would like to continue for at least term 2, most likely all year.

Inside StrathfieldsayeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Zane focused on maths operations and the order of operations, as well as English comprehension by practising full sentence responses to assess understanding.

Year 7 student Mia worked on revising fractions—including mixed and improper forms—and also calculated areas of triangles using geometry diagrams.

For Year 10, Olivia tackled quadratic equations in maths and continued writing her English essay, with a focus on structuring paragraphs clearly.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student sometimes skipped writing out steps in maths, especially with fractions—"most addition homework was attempted as subtraction," a tutor noted—which led to confusion when checking answers.

In Year 11 physics, a learner forgot to convert units and struggled recalling how synchrotrons emit light, likely due to not reviewing notes after class.

Meanwhile, one Year 6 student didn't complete spelling or English homework this week; unfinished work meant they missed key practice for upcoming assessments.

A tired Year 4 learner lost focus toward the end of sessions, leaving several tasks incomplete and feeling frustrated.

Recent Achievements

One Strathfieldsaye tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to hesitate with worded maths problems now independently breaks them down and asks targeted questions when stuck, showing a real shift from guessing to thoughtful problem-solving.

A senior student recently managed to describe and graph the range and domain of functions after weeks of uncertainty—she confidently identified intervals on her own this time.

In Year 4, one child who struggled to keep homework organised arrived excited with a neatly completed folder, taking clear pride in getting everything finished early for the first 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 Bendigo Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Francis of the Fields School.
