Chemistry Tutor Tecoma, VIC
As a chemistry tutor, the most integral thing for a student to succeed is their interest in studying. Unless a student does not want to learn and succeed, they cannot achieve this, so it is important for tutors to inspire and encourage students during sessions. Explaining concepts to students, listening to students, and making classes fun through…

A good tutor not only finds the best teaching method to suit the learning preferences of their student, but are also able to increase their student's confidence and mindset, helping them be both physically and mentally prepared for assessments. I am very proactive with answering questions and concerns. In the past, my student was 2 years behind on…

I find it important for students to know and feel that their individual needs are heard, understood and attended to. It would be most important to follow through all plans, tailored to their needs, with actions that allow the students to realise their progress. By also validating their strengths and identifying their self-limiting beliefs, I…

I think the most important thing is that students are able to recall information because they actually understand what they are being taught and not memorizing concepts just for the sake of it. By doing this, they will automatically improve and maintain good grades. I think my strength is being a student where I can understand the struggles that…

I believe this is crucial as it is one of the main advantages of having a tutor in…

To improve a student’s level of knowledge. To help him when there is a misconception, or failure to conceptualize. To teach him methodologies and skills of study.

Without a doubt, I believe it is essential for a chemistry tutor to nurture and grow self-belief within their students beyond anything else. Self-belief is perhaps the most pivotal factor in deciding academic success as well as personal success, and thus I see it as an important quality for a tutor to develop . Whilst a tutor should also be…

Great communication and really understanding the students way of learning.

I think one of the most important things a chemistry tutor can bring to their student is support. Often students who hire a tutor usually have some pressures concerning the subject; either it is a subject they are struggling in and require more time to grasp key concepts or they are looking to excel. In both cases, it is important that the tutor…

Hayden is a diligent and competent tutor with strong communication skills and most importantly a commitment to doing a good job!
Sharon

Inside TecomaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Daniel practiced times tables for fluency and worked through adding and subtracting fractions, as well as reading 24-hour time.

Year 10 student Vien focused on developing ideas and a main argument for a practice English essay, along with reviewing sentence rewording and preparing for an upcoming SAC.

For Year 11, Isaac revised parabolic graphs by exploring the turning point form and also tackled basic trigonometry concepts using visual examples.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 English, one student hesitated to attempt original or critical responses in essay tasks—often narrowing quickly onto familiar ideas rather than brainstorming a range of examples. "He tended to zone in on one idea and struggled to see the bigger picture," noted the tutor, which limited depth in argument essays.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student preparing for Language exams often stuck with easy practice questions and delayed tackling unfamiliar syntax material, resulting in less effective revision sessions.

In primary maths, avoidance of complex worded problems led to missed opportunities for applying new strategies during lessons.

Recent Achievements

One Tecoma tutor noticed a big change in a Year 11 student who, after struggling with essay clarity, was able to compare two drafts and clearly see how her second attempt communicated ideas much more effectively.

Another high schooler, previously hesitant to ask for help, now speaks up when she doesn't understand a topic and can explain past assessment answers in detail—a real shift from guessing quietly.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who used to second-guess his times tables is now recalling them quickly with flashcards and recently solved area and perimeter problems without any prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Great Tutoring and marks are an improvement. Thank you for your persistence and patience!

The tutoring is going quite well. We were really impressed with his proactive approach in asking for her naplan results and course outline from her teacher so he work in line with what she will be learning in class.

I would like to thank you for allowing me the opportunity to tutor this year. I have mentored a bunch of wonderful kids who have all made great improvements with their grades and work ethic. In addition, I have seen them become more and more confident with each lesson which has been incredibly rewarding.

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 Belgrave Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Tecoma Primary School.
