One of the most important things a tutor can do is just be patient with them. As students are brought up in a competitive environment in school, most times they feel inferior to their peers as not everyone learns at the same pace. Some learn faster and some learn slower and most often students feel lost and pressured. As a tutor, being there for…

We are very happy with Simon. Ryan has taken to the tutoring really well. One on one has really helped as he cannot get distracted by other kids and Simon keeps him on his toes and listening attentively.

Inside Yan YeanTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Jasmine worked on decimals and fractions, focusing on multiplying and adding/subtracting them using visual examples.

For Year 9, Marcus reviewed trigonometry concepts including solving equations with radians, as well as tackling holiday homework problems.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ruby revised quadratic equations by practising factorisation methods and applying the quadratic formula to determine the discriminant in different scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Maths, skipping written steps when solving equations led to arithmetic mistakes that became hard to spot later; as one tutor noted, "writing out each step makes errors more obvious."

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student struggled with worded problem-solving because key school homework wasn't completed before lessons—this left gaps in understanding during sessions.

In primary English, messy assignment planning meant main ideas weren't clear at the start, so time was lost untangling confusion instead of developing writing.

For a senior student, forgetting class materials slowed progress and limited engagement with new content in each session.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Yan Yean noticed a Year 11 student who previously struggled with factorisation patterns now confidently using common methods to solve equations by the end of their session.

Another high school student, after weeks of finding probability challenging, was able to accurately draw box plots and calculate standard deviation by hand—tasks they'd hesitated with before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who once waited quietly during difficult tasks has started telling her tutor exactly where she needs help and even demonstrated new problem-solving strategies she'd discovered herself.

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 Laurimar Primary School.
