As a tutor, I need to know what is the problem that my students are struggling with and their needs. Therefore, the most significant thing is that I need to show them their problem, how they can solve it, and what is the other way to tackle this problem. Also, what they can learn from their problem, and they can avoid it next time. Finally, could…

In my opinion, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to let them know that it is okay to make mistakes. People learn and understand things at a different pace and not everyone can learn from their first mistake. This is important because a student should feel comfortable in the surroundings they learn in without feeling…

A tutor can show a student why instead of just how. Students step into academics and are shown what to do and how to do it, but they don't understand why until much later on in life.

Jessica and Mohamed had a great start and I think Mohamed is doing a good job getting to know Jessica. I'm pleased with his teaching style and method.

Inside Sunshine NorthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Allegra worked through ordering fractions on a number line and practiced adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions in revision exercises.

In Year 10, Jayden completed practice exams for an upcoming maths test, focusing on applying algebraic techniques and problem-solving under timed conditions.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Arjun focused on quadratic equations by learning to use the quadratic formula and mastering the discriminant to solve for unknown constants and intersection points.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student relied heavily on memorization in Methods and hesitated to use the graphic calculator efficiently, slowing progress with quadratic problems. As a tutor noted, "needs much more practice with the graphic calculator… and mastering the quadratic formula."

In contrast, a Year 5 student repeatedly forgot to bring books home or complete homework, making it hard to track content or prepare for upcoming lessons—she arrived without materials and struggled to recall past work.

Organization lapses and inconsistent revision led both students to forget key methods or feel unprepared when new topics appeared, leaving them frustrated in-session.

Recent Achievements

One Sunshine North tutor recently noticed a Year 7 student who used to avoid asking for help now regularly pauses to check her understanding before moving on, showing much more initiative than in earlier sessions.

In high school, a Year 10 student who once needed step-by-step guidance with circular functions can now recall key values and solve complex questions mentally. Last week she completed advanced problems under timed conditions with minimal prompting.

Another win came from a Year 12 maths session where the student applied newly learned formulas to trickier graphing questions and immediately explained her reasoning back to the tutor without hesitation.

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 St Bernadette's School.
