The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is never let them lose their confidence and motivation. Before assessments most students are their worst enemy, stressing themselves out to the point in which they forget everything they have learned. I too have done this and know it comes from a lack of confidence. Therefore, it is…

I think it is very important that a tutor really listens to what their student needs in order to cater to these needs. I always like to ask my students how they usually study and what they have found works best for them. I also like to introduce my students to other methods of learning that I believe may be beneficial to them, when working with me…

Developing analytical ability, intellectual curiosity and a sense of achievement from even small study goals should be targets for tutors working…

The most important thing that a tutor can provide for a student is support and motivation. When a student is struggling, they have low self-efficacy and motivation to engage with the subject.

Help them reach their full potential without doing all the work for them; I think it is important to let them do some hard work now and again so they can appreciate it more when they are congratulated for their success, and so that they are not 'coddled' into thinking other people will do all their work for them. Some of my strengths would…

Inside BurbankTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Thomas built background knowledge on binomial and normal distributions, then began learning to interpret worded probability questions by identifying key information.

For Year 11, Grace revised trigonometry and algebraic substitution through practice problems from her review sheet, focusing on tricky examples discussed in class.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Ella practised converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages as well as solving worded percentage questions using real-life money scenarios.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student repeatedly forgot to bring essential materials to lessons, which meant valuable time was lost waiting for him to locate the required work.

In a Year 11 maths session, he relied on my instructions rather than using the school's scaffolding sheet, showing hesitancy in working independently on assignments and missing chances to build self-reliance.

A Year 8 student left homework incomplete for five consecutive weeks; this lack of consistent revision led her to forget basic multiplication facts during class games.

When faced with unfamiliar fraction conversions, a Year 5 student grew frustrated and stopped engaging—her confidence dipped further each time an answer eluded her.

Recent Achievements

A Burbank tutor recently noticed Ben, a Year 11 student, has started to ask more targeted questions when stuck on advanced trigonometry, rather than hesitating in silence as he did earlier in the year.

Another high schooler, Sas, made a shift from needing frequent hints with square and cube roots to working through these problems independently—she completed her latest worksheet without using a calculator or asking for help.

Meanwhile, Orla (Year 6) used to be reluctant about new maths topics but was genuinely excited to tackle capacity this week and showed off her classwork confidently during their session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Kaitlyn and Jet have had a wonderful start to the term. Judging by the two lessons his had she has managed to make a world of difference already. Kaitlyn has a wonderful personality and has so much patience. I have nothing but praise for her.

We are so far really happy with jun woo. He is highly competent and seems to be doing a great job with Ashton.

Isabelle is lovely and she and Sara hit it off in their first session. We would definitely like to continue with Isabelle, thank you.

Local Spots for Tutoring
