A tutor should know the student's learning style well and be able to cater to their needs. A tutor should also provide a strong foundation to the subjects so that students can build upon this foundation and practice and get better in the future. A tutor should also build good, consistent study habits in the student, and build up the student's…

Taking initiative to bring the student out of their comfort zone. In a lot of cases, students fear showing their lack of knowledge, especially in group settings.

Inside ClaremontTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Ethan focused on exponential functions and polynomial equations, including practice with graphing and algebraic manipulation.

In Year 10, Mia tackled the circle theorem and polynomial division, working through geometric proofs alongside algebraic long division problems.

For primary support, Year 4 student Tilly worked on multiplication strategies for two- and three-digit numbers as well as area and perimeter calculations using real-life worded examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student found it difficult to slow down and write out all variables when approaching physics questions, leading to confusion over what was being asked. "It is always best practice to slow down and write down all your variables prior to starting any working out," one tutor observed after a rushed attempt left key steps missing.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student sometimes skipped back-checking answers in algebra, which meant sign errors weren't spotted until much later.

In primary maths, a Year 4 student struggled with lining up numbers during addition and subtraction, resulting in misplaced digits and basic calculation errors.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Claremont recently noticed some great changes: one high school student who used to rush through tests has started slowing down to carefully read each question, which helped him spot and fix errors he previously missed.

Another older student now uses pen-to-paper and back-checking strategies without being prompted—just a few weeks ago, she needed reminders for these steps but now applies them on her own when tackling complex worksheets.

In primary sessions, a Year 5 girl who struggled with her 7 times tables is now able to answer random multiplication questions quickly and confidently.

What they say about our tutoring

Mina helped me to improve considerably so that I felt confident and capable going into my final year 12 exams.

Mina was excellent in helping my son with last-minute HSC exam preparation. Thanks Mina

Kicking myself for not starting tutor earlier! It would have helped tremendously with Jayden's studies and being able to work independently!

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Claremont Community Hub & Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Methodist Ladies' College.
