A tutor is there not only to facilitate a student's learning of the curriculum knowledge but also to foster critical thinking skills transferable to other aspects of their education. Knowing that every student learns differently, I cater to the student's individual needs and work with them to figure out the most effective learning strategies. I do…

Someone once told me a great teacher is not a messiah but a guide. As a tutor, I do not gift my mentees the treasure of knowledge but rather act as a guide toward achieving them. I believe the most important thing that a tutor can do for their students in the limited time that they have is to show them how to study on their own and succeed even…

Therefore, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student for me is to be able to efficiently teach at a pace comfortable for a student. In terms of my teaching ability, I achieved a…

I think a tutor should strive their best to bring knowledge to the students, and at the meantime, adjusting to the best teaching method towards different students. Moreover, I prefer my students to enjoy the class since pleasure could boost the effectiveness for learning. I am a very patient person, whom I am willing to spend time to explain the…

Having both been the tutee and the tutor, I believe that it is imperative that a tutor is supportive of the student and caters their teaching to the student's specific needs. Tutoring is only truly effective when the student is completely engaged with the tutor and I believe that this can only happen when the student believes that they are in an…

I believe tutors fill a different role than teachers and parents, and that puts them in a unique position to support students. Personal relationships are foundational to student success -- the more…

It is most important that a tutor doesn't give up on their students.

In addition, it is essential for a tutor to be able to learn the student's strengths and weaknesses and their way of thinking, so the…

I think a tutor should be capable of answering any questions discussing any uncertainties that a student may have. These should be explained clearly and if the student does not understand initially, the tutor should continue to explain in alternate ways (e.g. rewording sentences and visual aids such as diagrams) until the student understands. In…

A good tutor should help their student develop a love for what they are learning. When this is done successfully, this has a knock-on effect on the student's results as they are more engaged with the content they are learning. This starts with the tutor being passionate about the content they are teaching and being determined to push the student…

Kai is really enjoying his lessons with Noah! He's got a great way of connecting with Kai. Kai mentioned that Noah explains the reasons instead of doing things by rote. He gets him to think before explaining the answer. Very happy with him!

Inside Castle CoveTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student James focused on fraction revision and practised finding arc lengths in circles, using diagrams to visualise questions.

In Year 9, Aja worked through non-right angle trigonometry and quadratic equations by solving bearing questions from past exams.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Trai tackled factorising quadratics using the PSF method and reviewed topics from a recent assessment to target areas needing improvement.

Recent Challenges

He kept trying to apply extra steps that weren't needed, especially under time pressure. This slowed progress in timed assessments, making it harder to finish confidently.

In Year 7 algebra, another student repeatedly forgot negative signs when simplifying expressions—missing these details meant having to rework problems from scratch during revision.

For a Year 4 learner working on decimals and money questions, forgetting to bring homework sheets left less time for targeted practice in lessons. The result was unfinished work and some confusion about rounding rules during class checks.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Castle Cove noticed a Year 8 student who used to freeze on percentage and fraction conversions now confidently works through them without hesitation, especially after mastering the last few tricky steps by herself.

In high school, one Year 10 student who often guessed quietly when stuck with factorising is now openly pinpointing her errors and self-correcting during lessons—a big shift from before.

Meanwhile, a senior student struggling with logarithms recently identified which log laws to apply and solved questions independently after missing key classes last term, finishing the set without needing further hints.
