A tutor's role is not to lead the student's journey in achieving their goal, rather a tutor needs to help provide that extra support and guidance to students so that they can chart their own paths. I think my biggest strength I possess is humility. This allows me to take criticism and work towards improving myself. I feel this is essential…

As someone who has had tutors in the past; I can say with confidence that a tutor allows the student to catch up on what they didn’t understand in school the first time. Some topics are just harder than others.Unfortunately, most schools won’t slow down for each individual student just because they’re having a hard time. A tutor can enable a…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is guide them towards building self-esteem, confidence in themselves and ensure that when the tuition is over the student is able to recall the hours with the tutor and so be able to work through new challenging material by themselves. I am an incredibly dedicated and enthusiastic individual,…

It is a necessity for a tutor to establish rapport with their students.

In my opinion, a tutor has to be able to communicate effectively with a student. There is a clear difference between having knowledge and actually being able to teach a particular field of study. It is absolutely vital that a tutor speaks to a student in a way that is easily understood by the student but at the same time also engaging. This way of…

I am compassionate when teaching, I like to make the student feel…

I think the most important is to follow the students lead. They will often know their weaknesses and from spending time working with them, you can take note of possible areas of improvement. However, at the end of the day you are there to help the student so by listening and communicating effectively both parties will be satisfied. The ability to…

Perhaps the student feels incapable of solving problems,despite possessing the ability. Thus, it is a tutor's duty to show students that they are capable and believe in themselves. It is also important that the…

Inside AtwellTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emma explored the Fibonacci sequence through an investigation and practiced number patterns using hands-on examples.

In Year 9, James worked on gradients, midpoints, and calculating the length of lines, as well as solving algebraic equations step-by-step.

For Year 10, Olivia revised trigonometric ratios and their applications in right-angled triangles, then moved on to consolidating skills with similarity problems using diagrams for support.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 algebra, one student consistently avoided writing out working, preferring to "do it all in my head"—this led to confusion when combining x and y terms and made errors hard to spot.

For a Year 8 trigonometry task, skipping steps meant mistakes crept in unnoticed; as the tutor noted, "organising the solution better would help keep track of the thought process."

In a Year 11 statistics lesson, only revising familiar question types limited progress on new problems.

When tackling fractions in Year 7, one student's tendency to swap negative signs arose from trying to solve everything mentally instead of methodically on paper.

Recent Achievements

One Atwell tutor recently saw a big shift in Caitlin's approach: after struggling with her maths assessments, she went back and redid every problem she'd missed last time—and got them all right on her own.

With a Year 11 student, Emma, the notes show she used to mix up key points when graphing trig functions but now quickly identifies and plots each type without needing reminders.

In a lower year group, David had difficulty understanding how values affect the mean in statistics; now he explains his reasoning out loud as he solves new questions.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Hayden is really gelling with Rohan and after last weeks session he said “best hour I've spent all week”! So far so good. Rohan has turned up on time and is so organised and professional. All going really well.

The tutor you sent me on Sat is absolutely excellent. Pls don't change Mina. My kids feel really comfortable with her and finally we feel we have a winning formula.

It's got off to a great start, Beaux really likes Taran and she likes the way Taran explains things and shows her new ways of working things out. Taran has boosted her confidence and Beaux is actually able to do a lot more than we thought.

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 Success Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Atwell Primary School.
