I feel that the most important skills a tutor can develop in a student is their self worth and confidence. Tutors should provide Support, guidance, assistance, raise student confidence and provide a safe environment where the student is able to take risks and experience success. Having school and industry experience as well as being a primary and…

If the tutor can recognise when the student does not understand, instead of moving on and the student now has a gap in their fundamental knowledge, the tutor can attempt to convey the knowledge in a style more suited to the student. I have a…

Students are different from each other, some are fast learner while others are the opposite. As a tutor, I think its important to deliver a lesson that is easy to comprehend regardless of how academic the students are. I am more to lean to visual than texts. Since one of my hobbies is drawing, I would use this skill to deliver visual aid to…

It's important that a student can look up to their tutor to give them the drive and confidence to continue learning since they have a role model who supported them in their learning and accomplishments.

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.
