Tutors have to let students make mistakes. Afterwards, tutor has to tell them why such mistake is derived logically. That is way we learn. I have been solving maths for my whole life. And I believe that every difficult math problems can be divided into elementary parts. Also I solve problems by separating into easy parts; therefore, the way I try…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for the student is to always be there in earnest and to fully and truly support the student's learning. If a tutor does not know the solution to a particular problem/needs to refresh themselves, instead of feigning competence I would simply just tell the student that I do not know the answer/will…

It is also key to provide constructive feedback in a friendly, non-aggressive and…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student from my experience is to have an emotional connection. I feel it is not just about delivering a lecture.

I think a tutor should be able to tailor the teaching session to the weaknesses of specific students. Some students could be weaker in understanding the concepts while others could find it difficult to apply them to the questions while others could find it difficult to understand the exam questions itself. Being able to identify where the…

1. Help the student to build up good learning habits. For example, rather than answering the question right away, one should read the question very carefully and figure out the solving strategy accordingly. No rush in math learning and problem solving. 2. Give the student good learning suggestions to enhance their learning abilities. For example,…

Being a supportive friend. Whether it's assignment or exam season, or even their personal struggles, tutor should extend help and not afraid to see the student get better. Also, by being available to help outside the class such as email if the student has additional question or more homework. I believe that studying alone can be quite isolating…

Inside DaceyvilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Despina worked on understanding the area and volume of 2D and 3D shapes, along with practicing perimeter calculations.

Year 8 student Michael focused on simplifying algebraic expressions and applying the Pythagoras theorem to geometry problems, using visual examples for clarity.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sophia tackled chemistry syllabus content by reviewing electron configurations (spdf notation) and exploring trends in periodicity, including atomic radius and first ionisation energy.

Recent Challenges

Frequent reliance on calculators for basic operations, such as times tables and simple addition, made it harder for the Year 9 student to build fluency in index laws ("less use of calculator and a more thorough understanding and memorisation of times tables…").

In Year 11 Chemistry, incomplete memorization of polyatomic ions led to slower progress during ionic equation tasks.

For a Year 5 lesson, one student jumped quickly to answers without fully writing out working or reflecting on key phrases from questions, which meant missed details when reading texts.

During a senior selective-style test, another student struggled with time management and needed extra practice under timed conditions—she finished late and felt frustrated.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Daceyville recently noticed a Year 10 student who, after struggling with algebra, began working through examples independently and now occasionally solves problems without prompting.

In another session, a Year 9 student showed new initiative by finishing a research task on her own, whereas before she needed frequent reminders to stay on track.

Meanwhile, one of the younger students has started reading out loud more confidently during comprehension activities and now actively eliminates incorrect answers instead of guessing.

Last week, a high schooler completed her science report on time for the first time this term.

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 Lionel Bowen Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Michael's Catholic Primary School.
