The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to improve the student's attitude towards the subject. If a student is having struggles with certain subject, they may have a negative view on it which limits their openness and ability to learn. As a tutor, we should not just provide information to students but make sure they understand the…

I think invoking a love or passion for learning is the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. I also think it's important to let a student be curious and feel comfortable asking questions and asking more instead of feeling compelled to be satisfied with only what's given I am very patient as a person. I have tutored before and have a…

As a tutor, the most important thing is to improve the student marks and to be interested and make them enjoy in the subjects they study.

I think a tutor also needs to be ready to get creative as students, especially…

A tutor should provide a student a "light-bulb" moment, where they suddenly understand a concept, gain an idea or know how to answer a question. Light-bulb moments allow students to gain confidence in the subject, and thus achieve the goal of a higher mark. I believe it is also important for tutors to provide tips for dealing with stress,…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is help them understand concepts that may seem impossible to them because they can then view learning in a completely different viewpoint. This helps them have an open mind towards learning instead of viewing it as something tedious. As such, being understanding and empathetic…

Richard is a lovely young man. Very patient and caring in his delivery of his tutoring. He has made my daughter feel better about her ability to problem solve her mathematics.

Inside DavidsonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Olivia worked through finding the perimeter and area of shapes, alongside practising operations with decimals.

In Year 8, Ethan focused on simplifying algebraic expressions and collecting like terms in equations.

For Year 9, Sarah tackled linear equations and applied laws of indices to various problems, reinforcing her understanding using real exam-style questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student admitted that "revision doesn't help much for tests," highlighting a need to rethink study strategies and assignment planning, especially in preparing for maths assessments.

In Year 7 algebra, skipping written steps—"he tries to do it all in his head"—led to missed variables and incomplete answers, making errors harder to catch.

One senior student struggled to adapt the right formulas during unfamiliar exam questions; without clear working or question analysis, time was wasted circling back.

When homework wasn't completed outside of tutorials in Year 8, gaps persisted into lessons—so class time became review rather than moving forward.

Recent Achievements

One Davidson tutor recently saw a Year 10 student who used to skip over complex algebra problems now attempting the hardest questions on their worksheet without prompting, showing a clear shift from avoidance to active problem-solving.

In a senior session, a Year 12 student—who often hesitated to ask for help—has started openly identifying her weaker topics and requesting extra practice with indices and financial maths, rather than just guessing through tasks.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who previously struggled to focus for more than ten minutes managed an entire lesson on perimeter and area without losing concentration, finishing all assigned questions by herself.

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 Belrose Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kambora Public School.
