Understanding and learning about the child's needs and adapting your teaching style to best suit their needs. It is also important to develop a trusting relationship in which the child knows that the tutor is there to provide them with the best support they can offer to aid their learning.

I think one of the most important things is for the tutor to be understanding and listen to the student's problems to be able to grasp what they are struggling with and aid them effectively. It is also useful for the tutor to build a good relationship with the student to help increase their strengths in learning and incorporate their interests I…

As a chemistry tutor, you can help a student realise their potential. It is so important for students to become confident in their abilities. I believe tutoring can assist in this and allow students to perform to the best ability. I am a very communicative and patient person. If the student does not understand something, I will always try my best…

Listen. Every student excels in some ways and does not in others. This emphasises the importance for a chemistry tutor to present ideas in ways which allow the student to learn them in the most efficient and effective ways. This also ensures that the tutor does not repeat anything the student already knows and identifies what the student has yet…

I think a chemistry tutor can teach a student how to learn a topic after it is explained by the tutor. Because at the end, it is the student who needs to learn by themselves after something is being taught to them. A tutor should make sure that anyone can learn those topics on their own if they are introduced by the tutor. My first strength as a…

Some other students may experience difficulties in study (do not get a good…

Spiritually, tutors are there as mentors, which they need to encourage the student to achieve their full potential, because usually due to exam…

A teacher should make the student believe that subjects like maths are pretty easy and interesting to learn. This can be…

Inside ClaphamTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Jack worked on identifying odds and evens, creating timelines, and counting backwards using number lines.

In Year 9, Liam focused on understanding Pythagoras' Theorem with visual examples and began exploring the basics of trigonometry and probability.

For Year 10, Sarah deepened her knowledge of probability by working through Venn diagrams, tree diagrams for events without replacement, and calculating probabilities for mutually exclusive events.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9, one student's algebra responses were "hard for the examiner to follow" due to unclear formatting, making it difficult to spot and correct sign errors.

A Year 11 student relied heavily on copying previous problem structures in calculus but made minor mistakes with negatives when situations changed; as noted, "she sometimes copies a template without checking if all rules still apply."

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student often left textbook exercises unfinished at home, impacting her recall during lessons.

In English (Year 10), forgetting to underline key words in questions led to incomplete analysis and missed marks.

Recent Achievements

One Clapham tutor noted that a Year 11 student who previously struggled with applying the chain rule in calculus can now combine it smoothly with other differentiation rules and independently solve mixed problems.

In Year 10, another student who was often hesitant to ask for help now talks through her maths reasoning out loud, helping clarify misunderstandings on her own during sessions.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student recently used a new pattern-based strategy for unfamiliar times tables—something she hadn't tried before—and then confidently applied this approach to tackle tricky multiplication sums without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

1. I am very impressed with the service your Company provides. Mihika is an outstanding Tutor, and the feedback you have provided in terms of monthly report is very well received. well done!!! 2. In case you guys don't do any formal Customer feedback surveys, I would highly likely recommend your Company to others parents seeking this type of assistance.

Raymond is FANTASTIC - the benefits of his tutoring is already obvious with my eldest very confident and my youngest gaining it!

Our son started with his maths tutor in Year 6, he was struggling and his marks were in the lower quartile of the class.  Now half way through Year 7, he's gained confidence with maths and achieving excellent marks placing him above the year average.  His tutor is a great young uni student, he takes the time to explain problems in a way our son can understand them, he's patient and clear when he needs to redirect a problem.  One of the great benefits is the wonderful example he has been to our son, showing him how maths will play an important part in what he might want to do in the future. We are extremely pleased with results our son is achieving and credit a lot of the improvement to the support and work of our Ezy Math Tutor.  We love that tutoring happens at home and at a time that works for us a family.

Chemistry tutoring in Clapham

Reactions written out in simple mathematical terms but still impossible to read and understand - chemistry can be a tough subject to learn. No wonder students get discouraged and give up before even trying.

Even if they've started out well, tackled science in lower grades with a good attitude, even if they've made a switch to Year 11 Chemistry easily, more often than not students hit a wall when it comes to Year 12 chemistry. This is when they need all the support they can get.
