A tutor should provide students all the academic resources they need for success but additionally, instill values such as discipline, intrinsic motivation and resilience. This ensures students are equipped with the skills that allow for their perception and relationship with learning to become more positive in the long run. Additionally, tutors…

When I tutor students, I tend not to follow the same pattern or process of learning for every kid. I believe tutor can play huge role in a student’s life when it comes to teaching them how to fish rather than serving the fish. The ability to remain calm and composed in any situation I think is my biggest strength. Having to deal with kids who…

Be there to challenge them but more importantly encourage them.

Empathy, patience, assertive, challenging, rewarding, and attentive. I believe that…

I believe improving the student/s confidence in their own ability is a major factor in academic success.

Therefore, promoting and encouraging a positive mindset to the student I believe would significantly influence…

Finding out whether a student is a visual, auditory or kinesthetic learner is important. By discovering how the student learns best, I believe he will be able to reach his true potential. To do this, a tutor must be malleable in his teaching methods and communication. Furthermore, it is crucial that the tutor and student create a bond that reaches…

I think it's a question of what a tutor can BE rather than do. I found in my experience that I always responded to teachers who were enthusiastic and portrayed a genuine care for the learning of the student. In a metaphorical sense, the tutor must think like a student in an empathetic way rather than merely be a one way stream of instruction. If a…

Collaborating together is also crucial…

Inside Dolls PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student focused on solving trigonometric equations with one unknown using sine, cosine, and tangent, then applied these skills to worded trigonometry problems.

In Year 11 Chemistry, Fatima practised balancing chemical and net ionic equations alongside calculating molar mass and limiting reagents.

For a Year 12 student, recent lessons concentrated on acids and bases with particular attention to titration methods and interpreting results from practical experiments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student, as a tutor noted, "does not study anything of what we cover during the week," so sessions often repeat previous material instead of progressing.

In Year 11 Maths, forgetting key formulas like the trapezoidal rule meant extra time spent revisiting old content before tackling new exam questions.

A Year 5 learner misplaced homework by writing it on scraps rather than in the assigned booklet, leading to unfinished spelling tasks.

Meanwhile, one Year 7 student hesitated to write out steps in algebra due to fear of making mistakes—this slowed their ability to check and correct errors when practicing equations.

Recent Achievements

One Dolls Point tutor recently saw a high school student, who previously relied heavily on guidance, begin to solve problems independently and clearly explain each step back—she even kept her notes more organised than before and was fully aware of her upcoming assessments.

Another secondary student, after struggling with titration calculations in chemistry, managed to work through practice questions until she could complete them accurately on her own.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who had difficulty remembering spelling patterns earlier in the term spelled every word on his list with 100% accuracy and finished all ten words without mistakes.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Yes l'm happy at the moment and Sebastian seems to like Kate. She comes and gets straight into it then finishes off with a brief summary of what they have been doing. Which is great. At the moment Sebastian has only had three sessions, so still too early to tell. However there was a day at school when they did some Maths and he said he found it much easier, which is fantastic to hear.

So far so good.  Zachary and Gabriella seem to have a good rapport and I have noticed that Zac is working more confidently.  It's early days though, so time will tell when his grades start coming through. Gabriella is a lovely young lady and we are happy having her as a tutor.

We have been very happy with Lawrence.  He has been patient and on time every time.

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 Sans Souci Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like The Scots College, Brighton Preparatory School.
