Tutors in Campbell include high-achieving graduates, experienced teachers, subject specialists, and passionate mentors from top Australian universities. Many have received academic awards or hold advanced degrees, and all share a genuine commitment to helping students succeed.
I believe the way a concept is framed is one of the most important things an economics tutor can do for a student. My Year 11 and 12 Maths Teacher, Mr Rocks, would always explain to our class how different people's brains work in different ways (e.g. geometrically, analytically) so while one concept might make a lot of sense to the tutor/teacher,…
The most important thing for an economics tutor is to understand their student. All students have different strengths and weaknesses, and it is the responsibility of the tutor to understand their student as an individual in order to tutor in a way that is the most effective for a student to improve. For example, one of my students in the past…
I understand that blindly teaching could not help students in understanding, it is necessary to understand or feel their struggles too. As students could be shy or embarrassed to ask questions and the learning progress would stop by there, thus an economics tutor should show more care and patience to students. Especially for math, it is also…
I think prioritizing students’ confidence establishment. When I was tutoring one Year 5 boy in Shanghai, I helped the boy to rebuild his confidence clarifying the knowledge structure and outlining every day possible targets with an interactive approach. The boy began to be vigorous in his studies and he scored 93/100 from 70/100 in his final.…

I believe the most important thing an economics tutor can do is create a safe, supportive environment where students feel comfortable, respected, and free from judgment. Learning thrives when students are not afraid to make mistakes or ask questions. My role is to meet each student where they are academically, to listen carefully to their needs,…
I feel that an economics tutor can basically change a student's perception to a particular subject. A tutor has the power to build the foundations of a subject in a simplified and innovative way such that it is comprehended easily by the students. When it comes to teaching new concepts, I seldom go by the book. I think it is more important to give…
Being able to communicate the problem and solution in a way that they can understand. Ensure that the student learns the approach and isn't just given the answer by the tutor.

The most important things an economics tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, develop their problem-solving skills, and foster a genuine understanding of the subject. While improving grades is often a key goal, I believe true learning happens when a student feels empowered to think critically and tackle challenges independently.…
Teach them how to think independently, and provide them with a way of thinking efficiently.
Math is not a discipline in which someone does enough problems and can solve all the problems, but a discipline that requires people to constantly think about questions. So if one only knows to let students do lots of problems then he might not be a good…
The most important thing an economics tutor can do is create an environment in which the student feels comfortable asking questions and encouraging them to work hard and commit to learning. Big class settings can often see some students fall away in the mass, which means the one on one tutoring gives them the opportunity to be the sole focus, and…
The most important thing an economics tutor can do for a student is to be empathetic. As much as a tutor can do, they could not change how their students are. Not only does the student have to understand the material, the tutor should understand their students first. One of my strengths as a tutor would be to connect theoretical concepts with…
There are a couple of things which I think an economics tutor can do for their students
(1) Understand their way of thinking and interact in a way which is more familiar to them. A tutor must have different ways to put across the same concept to different students. A single way may not fit everyone.
(2) A tutor must be available for the…

With a background in Mathematics and Statistics, I derive genuine joy from teaching. My strength lies in simplifying complex concepts, being patient, and adapting to individual learning styles. The essence of tutoring, in my view, is not only imparting knowledge but also boosting confidence and problem-solving abilities. I strive to create a…
Well, I think the most important thing is interaction. When there is more interaction, student's learning become enjoyable.
Also, Using examples related to the real world. What is actually happening.
Lastly is patience. Being patience on the student and go with the student's pace and not the tutor's. I try to relate all my teaching to…
A tutor can give advice about future possibilites for a student considering their strengths and weaknesses. I'm flexible but also goal-oriented. I teach the way of thinking, not just steps in order to complete an…
I think the most important things a tutor can do are to build the student’s confidence, make them feel supported, and help them understand the subject in a way that makes sense to them. It's not just about getting the right answer it's about making the student feel like they can get there on their own. A good tutor listens, stays patient, and…
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.
What they say about our tutoring
The tutoring seems to be going very well so far. We have been working on the areas Mohamed has indicated Charlotte needs extra help with and his report was very helpful in this regard.
Leon has made some extreme improvement over this Term. In the last 3 weeks he has achieved 5th and 2nd!!! in the class mathematics tests. This has improved his confidence immensely and he shows more enthusiasm in his tutoring sessions. Very happy with Jordan.
We are very happy with how things are going with Sam - he is great at explaining concepts and Ruby seems to be responding positively to his style of coaching.
