In my eyes, one of the most important aspects of a tutor would be the ability to see things through the student's perspective. Being able to pinpoint exactly what the student needs help with can make the entire learning experience more efficient and a lot more rewarding overall. It also makes the student feel a lot more comfortable, as a learning…

I think that the most important part of being a tutor is not only teaching a student on how to excel at the particular subject, but teach them to develop certain study habits and techniques that they will then be able to utilize and apply to different subjects as well. Therefore building a foundation of study skills which they can then apply…

I consider an improvement in confidence incredibly significant to a child's attitude to learning. If a student is confident in their abilities to learn a subject, then they will be more likely to put effort into correcting their mistakes. This confidence and ability to recognise improvement will directly and positively affect the student's self…

Often if students are seeking tutoring, they are struggling or in a place of doubt about their abilities.

The most important thing as a tutor is to guide the students think positively.

The encouragement from my maths teacher motivated me to have faith on myself that I…

Local Reviews

Ethan is settling in very nicely with working with Jordan, who is very professional, friendly and approachable. Ethan is comfortable working with Jordan and is beginning to gain a little confidence in his approach to maths, so we are more than happy to continue working with him.

Inside WoodvaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Ava reviewed linear algebra and practiced working with integers, focusing on correct operations with negative numbers.

For Year 8, Mia worked through data analysis skills, interpreting different types of graphs and calculating mean, median, and mode using sample datasets.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Ben tackled financial mathematics by exploring loans and interest rates in real-world scenarios, followed by practice questions on unit conversions between metric measurements.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to keep written work neat and organized during algebra tasks; as one tutor observed, "setting out work so his thinking can be easily understood" was inconsistent, making it hard to spot calculation errors.

In Year 10, a student lost confidence towards the end of fraction questions—doubt crept in after small mistakes and slowed progress.

For a Year 6 assignment involving budgeting and timetabling, homework was left incomplete before sessions, so lesson time was spent catching up rather than extending skills.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student hesitated to attempt new problems independently until prompted.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Woodvale recently noticed a Year 7 student who used to rely heavily on drawing diagrams for division problems now solving them much faster just by using her fingers—she even gets the answers right more consistently.

In a high school session, one Year 10 student surprised himself after initially stumbling with circle measurement; he managed to demonstrate all his classwork independently by the end of the lesson, setting out each step clearly.

Another older student, preparing for OLNA practice, completed nearly every question without needing prompts and tackled some extension tasks as well.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Priscilla is wonderful with both my boys. I would recommend her without hesitation.

WE are very happy with Adam. He is an excellent tutor and he is engaging them both very well

Natalya is progressing really well with her math tutoring. Daniel is an excellent tutor and Natalya feels very comfortable around him. Her enthusiasm for maths has soared which for Don and I is a big step forward in such a short time. Her teacher has already commented on her progress and we have no doubt that her grades will continue to improve over time.

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