Tutors should personalise their teaching for each of their students. This involves understanding how a student learns best in order to cater to their learning needs and habits. For example, I find that some students prefer particular types of examples over others, and this informs me about how I can best explain new concepts to them. I've tutored…

Every student has the potential and it is the tutor who should try to help them reach that. In my opinion the main job of the tutor is to see the areas of weakness in his student. Once this is done…

Inside WollertTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Jugnu worked on understanding High Court interpretation and statutory interpretation in legal studies, reviewing major parts of Unit 4 content.

A Year 11 student focused on the doctrine of precedent and practiced structuring answers for exam-style questions.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Garry explored decimal operations—conversion, ordering, rounding—and reviewed place value concepts using practical examples.

Recent Challenges

Not breaking down exam-style questions led to missed marks for a Year 12 student; the tutor noted: "Needs improvement with answering exam-style questions."

In Year 11, anxiety about Mechanics topics caused the focus to shift toward quickly finishing homework instead of building understanding—leaving concepts shaky for tests.

For a Year 8 English essay, skipped proofreading meant grammar and paragraphing issues slipped through.

In Year 5 maths, rushing mental calculations caused avoidable errors and gaps in times tables recall. The result was frustration during timed assessments when familiar mistakes reappeared.

Recent Achievements

A Wollert tutor noticed a Year 12 student who used to struggle with interpreting exam questions now actively chooses the quickest method to solve problems and clearly explains her reasoning.

In a recent Year 9 English session, Garry—who previously hesitated to structure his essays—successfully planned out paragraphs and integrated stronger arguments without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who was once unsure about decimal place values independently wrote each number in the correct spot during practice, no reminders needed. At the end of that lesson, she confidently ordered several decimals on her own for the first time.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Sam has been great, easy to communicate and arrange times & dates has been great. Sam takes pride in his tutoring and is assisting Jacqueline with her studies. Thank you.

Ashleigh is working with Joshua nicely, thank you. They interact easily and Ash asks questions an feels comfortable with him.

We have only had a couple of tutoring sessions so far but it has been a very short term, however the couple of sessions that we have had with Jonathan have been very good so we are very happy. We look forward to next term and Mia getting the assistance that she needs with her maths. Jonathan explains things well and is very kind and patient. So far, all good.

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