Listen to what the issue is and explain. I personally could do maths equations but if i didn’t know WHY something was in the formula it wouldn’t click and i’d be frustrated. That is until a wonderful teacher pointed this out and would send me explanations on why something is used. I think it’s important to listen to what the issue or…

A tutor should use as simple language as possible because using fancy language can make them loose interest as they won't know the words. A tutor should involve the students into the discussion so that they don't sleep off during the session. I have a good command over English Language which helps me connect with people so that I can go to the…

Not only teach them how to solve a problem, but also teach them resilience and perseverance through tutoring.

First, it is essential that a tutor provides support tailored to that student's needs, learning process, and interests. Second, a tutor must approach sessions with patience and understanding, while avoiding negativity and behavior that may discourage their student.

I consider the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to listen to them and work with them, not at them. Tutoring for me is not just about regurgitating the same things as their classroom teacher, especially if it is a student who is struggling and the classroom approach is not working for them. I tutor in a way to make the student…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is build not only a survey-able understanding of the topic, but hopefully a genuine interest and passion. This might not be realistic 100% of the time, but creating actual curiosity and interest beyond just completing work out of necessity can not only be highly rewarding for the student but will…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to tailor the teaching content to the student's specific needs. Every student has unique strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles, and a one-size-fits-all approach often falls short. By customizing lessons, a tutor can address individual gaps in knowledge, reinforce areas of…

I believe a tutor should be able deliver a balance of teaching, guiding and being a friend to a student.

It is also important to share on understanding and…

Local Reviews

The staff are very friendly, and communication is great. It only took a few days to get a chemistry tutor for our daughter, and the first lesson was excellent.
Peta Collins, Yarraville

Inside YarravilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Layla worked on graphing and finding equations of circles, practicing with real examples; Year 10 student Michael focused on solving simultaneous equations using the elimination method and also learned to graph linear equations.

While in Year 11, Sophia revised how to complete the square for quadratics and polished her skills with discriminants and solving inequalities, including practice with quadratic turning points.

Recent Challenges

A Year 7 student left homework unfinished last week, which meant key concepts in "completing the square" didn't get enough reinforcement before moving on.

In Year 9, a tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors"—the written work lacked structure and made mistakes harder to spot.

Meanwhile, a senior student tackling quadratic equations relied heavily on mental calculations rather than writing out each stage; this slowed progress when more complex problems appeared.

One Year 10 lesson saw time lost as the student hunted for forgotten materials instead of practicing worded questions. Each scenario cost valuable practice or clarity at crucial moments.

Recent Achievements

One Yarraville tutor noticed Isla independently spotted her own errors in SOH CAH TOA problems—a shift from earlier sessions when she waited for hints before correcting mistakes.

In a senior session, Samuel took initiative with his study routine by creating detailed to-do lists and reflecting on what worked after each study block, rather than relying solely on the tutor's prompts as he had before.

Meanwhile, Tata (Year 6) tackled tricky literacy tasks by rewriting definitions and practicing spelling until she could read them out confidently—an improvement from her initial reluctance to read aloud.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are certainly happy and off to a great start. Edward has been great, punctual & helpful. I am confident this  trend will continue and George's math will only improve.

We found Luke to be a knowledgeable and good tutor who worked well with Jessica. He was able to provide us with 2 tutoring sessions prior to Jessica's exam. I think more than anything he helped settle her nerves and was able to provide exam study strategies to enable her to approach the Chemistry exam in a prepared and calm manor.

Thanks, we all love love love Kieran.  Just what both my kids needed.  Awesome tutor!

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 Yarraville Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Augustine's School.
