It is important to understand what the student actually wants, identify the key requirements, and explain according to what the student needs to learn. To make the student love the subject and to learn as a passion and not as something that is just needed to get a grade. I am someone who is patient, has the ability to explain something numerous…

Two things: One: Listening and observing. Sometimes in tutoring you focus so much on the schoolwork and learning and bypass the learning experience. Being keen and observing the student\'s behaviour, mode of communication, body language etc, you can meet them at their level and once they feel understood, not looked down on and safe, then they are…

The most important thing that I, as a tutor, can do for a student is support. To support them through whatever it is they do. To know that you have someone who is waiting to consolidate what they learned at school and help them in their understanding. Someone who reminds them that they can do anything they put their minds to and to remind…

Confidence is a key element that tutors can either instil or take away from a student. All children are born with a capacity to learn and it is our job to help them realise their great potential. In saying that, tutors must always be kind, encouraging and supportive of a child so that they can be confident enough to venture into the unknown and…

Perspective. Often people tell me how they've never had to use the skills they learned in School or University. I find the opposite is true!

Inside WhittleseaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Vikram focused on assessing strengths and weaknesses in English, including reading comprehension and grammar.

In Year 8, Jessica worked through fractions and decimals, tackling mixed-number calculations and basic operations using practical examples.

For Year 10, Olivia revised factorising equations—both with common factors and the difference of two squares—and also practiced solving quadratic equations by different methods to prepare for her upcoming test.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Maths, forgetting to bring key class materials meant a student could not attempt set homework or reference worked examples—"she didn't have her workbook, so we couldn't check last week's problems."

For a Year 11 Methods student, skipping written working and relying on mental calculations led to hidden arithmetic errors; as one tutor observed, "he tried solving equations in his head but missed obvious mistakes."

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner often avoided feedback on creative writing drafts, making it hard to improve narrative flow and descriptive detail. Without addressing these habits, frustration grew each session.

Recent Achievements

One Whittlesea tutor noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to speak up now clearly explains when she's stuck and even shared her own method for tackling maths problems.

A high schooler in Year 11, after struggling with factorisation, could by the end of their session accurately spot patterns and use the correct methods without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who often needed lots of reminders stayed focused through an entire lesson on improper fractions and finished all her assigned questions independently.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you. So far so good. Sarah is very approachable and friendly, quick to respond to emails etc. and has a great collaborative style. Jake, who was skeptical of tutoring at first, has found the sessions very useful.

We are delighted with Charlie as Gabrielle's tutor. He has been prompt, polite, pleasant and extremely helpful. Within 2 sessions I could see her confidence in attacking problem solving questions had improved and approach to Maths in general.

Tammy is great.  She has a friendly manner and she is enthusiastic at every session. Lucy seems to like her and she has some great methods for teaching.  She engages Lucy and makes the sessions fun and interesting bringing things along to help Lucy understand what she is trying to teach her.  She is concentrating on what Lucy's weaknesses are while thinking ahead for Lucy for year 7. From  my observations of the sessions I think she will help Lucy enormously. I am very happy with Tammy to date and hope that she is happy to continue on with Lucy
