The best thing a tutor can do is to remove the fear within the students of asking even the simplest questions. Also to make them feel connected with the tutor and make the study enjoyable and comfortable. I make a good rapport with the student very quickly. My method explanations are easy to understand. I focus more on basic concepts. I never get…
Provide Individualized Support: Every student has unique learning needs, strengths, and challenges. A tutor should tailor their approach to meet the specific requirements of each student, whether it involves addressing gaps in understanding, building upon existing knowledge, or adapting teaching methods to suit different learning styles.

I have good grades, knowledge, a Master's degree and experience in the field. I believe it is important to find a tutor who is patient, who truly enjoys teaching, enjoys the company of his or her students and has the ability to build a rapport with them so that they can learn. This, I promise you, I can do. I like to explain the concept just the…
Being Non-judgmental with a desire to help; does not make assumptions about students; treats all students as
individuals who want to learn and have the ability to learn no matter what their
personal background or circumstances are. Encourages independence: You do not want the student to rely on you at all times. Let them know that they must put…
Instead of simply teaching the concepts, a tutor should try to teach the student the logic behind the concept; he/she should try to simplify difficult concepts in a way students can grasp. Moreover, I think it's important that a tutor lets the student work on the problems first, let them brainstorm and develop their thinking skills instead of…
The primary role, I believe, for a teacher is to guide students to the right direction. With all the progress in information technology, educational content is readily available for literally anyone willing to learn something. The key role, for a modern-day teacher, I feel is to help students understand what they might be looking for and how they…
Listening to the difficulties that a student is facing with patience and offering customized solutions as per the students' strengths and weaknesses. Assessing and alerting the student if he/she is deviating from the track so as to maximize the chances for success. Patience, persistence, and ability to grasp the individual needs of each…
I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to be available for a student at times of need, to clear their doubts, especially during exams, as that is generally the time when students have the most number of doubts. Students who don't have any uncleared doubts before an exam are generally more confident, and tend to perform better in exams.…
Inside Armstrong CreekTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
