The important thing is to develop the student's ability to independently study. It is like that proverb 'Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.' There are going to be times where the student will find themselves in a position with an urgent question regarding their assignment which is…

A tutor should help a student foremost achieve the specific academic goals that they wish to attain; but the way in which they should do this is by inspiring a love of learning in the student. By achieving this dual function, you are more likely to attain success for short term results as well as success for the entirety of their academic careers.…

I believe a tutor should possess excellent organisational, communication skills and good subject knowledge and Curriculum knowledge. It is important to understand the difficulty students go through in learning a particular subject. As a tutor we need to be patient. Above all, its the impact on children; we could be the reason a student develops a…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student are clarify difficult concepts, build confidence, and encourage independent thinking. A tutor should not just provide answers but help students develop a deeper understanding of the subject by guiding them through problems and encouraging critical thinking. Equally important is creating a…

Being patient is the single most important thing a tutor can do his/her students. In my experience, I reaped the biggest rewards of being patient with the most struggling students of a cohort in terms of learning outcomes. In relative terms, return on patience with students outstrips that on all other aspects of tutor effort in my personal…

I think the ability to listen to the needs of each student to tailor your methods to them is vital in maximising their success. In the same vein, I think it is important to provide students with learning strategies that they can approach problems with in the future, to help build their toolbox, rather than approaching each new assignment or…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their students is to foster a supportive and encouraging learning environment. This involves not only teaching the material but also building the student’s confidence in their own abilities. A tutor should inspire curiosity and provide the tools for students to become independent learners, so they feel…

Inside Craigburn FarmTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Oliver worked on building confidence with multiplication and division facts, as well as practising real-life time problems using visual aids.

In Year 10, Emily focused on drawing derivatives given the original function and explored key principles in circular motion and gravitation.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Josh tackled applications of integration to solve physics-based magnetic induction questions, working through multi-step problems for deeper understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student, when working on proof questions in maths, hesitated to start without clear strategies and sometimes avoided writing out the first steps—this led to confusion about what equations were needed.

In senior physics, a Year 12 student hadn't completed enough independent revision between sessions; "Hadn't done much revision between our last two sessions so needs to get plenty done," noted one tutor.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student struggled with retaining time and currency conversions from week to week, which slowed progress during new tasks.

Each case showed that gaps in process—rather than understanding—held them back at key moments.

Recent Achievements

One Craigburn Farm tutor noticed a Year 10 student who had previously avoided revision now dedicating extra time each week to exam prep, leading to much clearer understanding of equations and how to interpret them.

A Year 11 learner made real strides with magnetic induction—after struggling initially, he was able to explain the concept back in his own words by the end of the session.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student shifted from silently solving maths problems to enthusiastically sharing her strategies out loud, showing new openness and engagement she hadn't displayed before.

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 Blackwood Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Concordia College (St Peters Campus, Blackwood).
