I think its incredibaly important to be patient with the children, each child is different so it's important to be able to have a teaching plan that would work for their abilities. I also think its important to note that it is always important to always let the child have a go first at any question before giving them the answer, this way…

A tutor helps a student understand a topic, learn a skill, complete tasks, get better grades, and achieve high standards in general. A tutor can also help a student find their strengths and shortcomings, find opportunities and experiences, and become proactive and a better human being. I give effort. I give quality time to my students to learn and…

My goal as a tutor is to assist students in achieving their academic goals and guiding them through academic difficulties. When you can see how your efforts helped enhance a learner's grade on a test or report, it's supremely satisfying. Through teaching, I've learned how to be myself. I enjoy teaching because your students want to feel as though…

The most important thing that a tutor can do is motivate a student. No matter how good the tutor or the student, if the student doesn't want to put in the effort then tutoring will be far less effective. If you are able to motivate your student and make the learning somewhat entertaining then that student will achieve much greater results than…

I think my critical thinking skills and interpersonal communication skills are my biggest…

Great service & great tutors. Tutor was well matched to my daughter's requirements. My daughter is thriving!

Inside SunshineTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 Vincent focused on area, volume, percentages, ratios, and mixed numbers in maths homework review, while also practising reading comprehension and grammar in English.

For Year 10 Arshdeep, the lesson addressed motion on an inclined plane by breaking down gravity into components and calculating net force, as well as exploring the role of tension and drag forces using diagrams.

In Year 12 Chemistry with Ruby, revision included balancing ionic equations, identifying functional groups such as alkanes and alkenes, and applying mole calculations to empirical and molecular formulae.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student arrived for Chemistry without their class notes or materials, which made it harder to address gaps in ionic equations and electron configuration—he had significant gaps that will require further study.

In Year 8 Maths, one learner's workbook was disorganised and missing homework, so practice with fractions and column addition could not be checked.

A VCE student tackling comparative essays sometimes avoided using feedback on structure, leading to repeated confusion over evidence selection.

During a senior Methods session, rushing through complex number problems led to overlooked details; time was lost fixing these instead of moving ahead.

Recent Achievements

One Sunshine tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 11 physics student who, after weeks of staying quiet, finally started asking for help with concepts like time dilation—he now explains his reasoning out loud instead of guessing.

Another high school student working on comparative essays initially struggled to plan ideas but recently began mapping out argument structures independently, which is new for her.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to avoid reading tasks volunteered to read the next chapter aloud during their session and tackled unfamiliar words by sounding them out without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We have been extremely happy with your service and in particular the professionalism and help Jordan received from Suraj.  Cannot endorse Suraj enough.

Thanks you for your email.  We have been very happy with everything.  Reagan has been great with our son Jack and been a huge help to him over the past months.  Jack has pretty much finished for the year now having completed his end of year exams.  As he is year 12 we won't be requiring assistance next year.  We have two other children and would certainly use your tutoring services again if required.

We are very happy with the tutoring so far. Ben has gained some confidence in the past couple of weeks. Robert is great.. explains things in a way that Ben can easily understand.

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 Brimbank Libraries—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception School.
