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.
As said earlier, a tutor is not someone with a "rat-race" kind of approach to learning with zero engaging feats. The most important thing is being keen on motivation. Since I plan teaching students from a primary to higher level each level would require motivation in a very different way. For e.g. engaging primary level students with a minor…
Helping students understand the importance of learning is the main key. Students need to learn the importance of an educational journey. A classroom of 20 plus students may not always give them the individual attention that is needed. a tutor can help bridge the gap for attention and contact that a classroom may not allow and thereby help students…
I believe that the purpose of tutoring is not just to make the student better at a given subject (although of course that too is important) but rather to teach them the skills that they need to approach problems in all of their subjects and even beyond school to life as a whole. The ability to look at a maths problem and know the correct formula…
I think listening to the student is the most important thing a tutor can do. Whether it is simply listening to troubles they are having with a class or with life, listening to the student is very important. As someone who has studied a wide range of topics throughout high school and college, I feel like I have a wide range of expertise.…
One of the most important things a tutor can do is instil a sense of passion for the subject. The student should feel comfortable going to class and doing the homework afterwards. The tutor should be assisting and looking out for concepts and gaps that the student might have and fill these gaps. On top of this, I want to be able to change a…
The best thing a tutor can do is leave a student with the tools, knowledge and confidence to continue advancing their academic career without relying on the tutor or teachers. I'm quite smart but also good at talking and listening to people. I see one of my strengths as being able to articulate an idea in a simple way, especially with Economics,…
Rather than making the subject more troublesome for the student, a tutor must help them realize how easily the same could be studied using small tips and making it more enjoyable.
Helping out with their doubts, providing sufficient extra materials, and small tips to remember among others, are important things that a tutor could help with.…
I believe that creating open communication is a very important part of teaching. I consider the best way to connect with students is to create a positive learning environment and encourage interaction and discussion. A tutor also needs to be a role model for students so it is essential that they act responsibly and are polite and courteous to them…
To help them understand concepts they did not fully grasps during regular learning, and to share practial experiences and useful tricks for problem solving. Passing down the knowledge previous students accumulated during their school time. I have previous experiences in tutoring students of differnt ages.
I have great patience and is willing to…
Provide support to students in both the academic and mental difficulties they might be going through. Often as a tutor you must recognise that students who get tutoring need further help than what is being given and may have academic insecurity, so it is our role to help them improve on this and gain confidence in their learning, with hopes that…
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is giving them confidence and equipping them with skills to find solutions on their own. Rather than simply copying a tutor's methods or solutions, it is essential that a student develops the skills to confidently approach new issues they could be faced with. One strength of mine is that I am…
I see no student a failure, and I will take their failure as my own. The most quintessential thing any tutor can do is adapt to the student's way of thinking and guide them to success. When you help others, you grow in the process. There is no important thing a tutor can do for a student apart from working on themselves to aid the student better…
The two most important things a tutor can do for a student in my view are (1) adapt to that particular student and (2) encourage and motivate the student along the way. Indeed, without motivation, tutoring is a fairly pointless exercise. My strengths as a student are (1) my ability to make complex concepts, especially in maths, tangible to…
A great tutor does not only stay with students during lessons time but also being able to stay with them on their journey to achieve their goals. A tutor who entrust knowledge into their students know that they do not only deliver knowledge, but also the hope and belief instilled in the students toward their academic success. I tend to personalise…
Providing adequate feedback is the most important trait of a tutor. A tutor must identify key areas of weakness especially for maths. They must also show a method that can be replicated to produce the best results. I am very good at using visual aids to demonstrate new concepts to the students. I am great at boosting the student's confidence as I…
Patience - Doing questions and concepts at their pace and going over them multiple times is vital. I can adapt quickly to the student and help them understand concepts at their…
I think the most important facet is personalising lesson plans and taking time to understand the main shortcomings of each individual student. Being able to have open conversations and earn students trust to offer constructive feedback that extends outside the lesson - e.g dealing with mental stress and study regimes - can be far more important to…
Provide with excellent revision materials and pushing students to the best of their ability to obtain the best grade they can. I personally feel that the best accomplishment was helping students to be more confident individuals. I think I could be a mentor to these students and help them be more mature and responsible in helping them deal with…
- Understand students problems
- Understand knowledge difference between both
- Take care of emotional development
Tutors need to put themself in students place. A learning process only works when knowledge is not imposed but built by the students themselves. Three points :
- excellence
- general culture
-…
The most importatnt thing is to help the student understand the concepts, get used to them and can apply them with no difficulty. My strong background in math and fluency in verbal english are what make me an outstanding…
I believe one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to give them the confidence to approach difficulty. I believe this is more important than just teaching the students academic skills because by giving them confidence the student will be more proactive toward their learning. I'm a patient tutor who doesn't get annoyed or…
A tutor influences a student in many ways. He or she contributes a lot to the personality of a student. The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to build confidence. And I believe confidence is something that is essential throughout a persons life. It's the confidence that makes one believe that they could do things…
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.
