It is so important for tutors to adapt their method of teaching to the way the student learns. Every student not only has different needs and difficulties, but learns concepts differently. It is extremely important to regularly re-evaluate the student's objectives. Modifying your approach as a tutor to make the student feel comfortable and…

A tutor should be very patient and let the student learn in his/her own pace.

The most important thing a tutor can do would be to personalise the study plan and instruction to ensure that the student's weaknesses and strengths are being addressed and to have the patience to explain concepts repeatedly if the student doesn't understand it at first. Often times, students seek outside tutoring as they feel the help they…
A tutor can provide mentoring and perspective for a student. Tutoring in my opinion is more effective than lecturing as the student gets more individual attention. A tutor is somebody you can go to if you are not completely confident studying by yourself. My strengths are that i am very good at mathematics and enjoy helping other people. I also…
To make them feel confident and confortable enough to ask me questions or raise any concerns, so that they can reach their highest potential. I can teach concepts in simple ways and link them to the practical use in the real world, to help students understand even…
The most fundamental thing is to teach them about the subject itself.
More importantly, is the influence of your value and behaviour on students. Your compassion and dedication can motivate students to fulfill their potential and achieve more than they've expected. First of all, I'm really talented at maths. I can help students to understand…
To begin with, a tutor must encourage a student to do better and learn from previous mistakes. Getting upset/impatient with a student is only going to discourage the student and prevent him/her from reaching potential; and that's the opposite of the desired goal. In addition, confidence has to be built in a student; this way a student will be able…
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
Yes Daisy is a good tutor and seems to work great with the younger children. I was very happy with her for David.
I've not actually met Tevita myself but both Ashleigh and my husband Adam have nothing but good things to say about him. Ashleigh is very happy with his tutoring so far and seems to have a better understanding of the maths subjects she is doing.
We are very impressed with Jason and Scott enjoys the sessions with him which is great. Thanks.
