I think the most important a tutor can do for a student is to get to know and read them perfectly. This allows a tutor to know exactly what a student needs to excel, help them set realistic goals and knowing not only when to help but also when not to help, rather letting the student try and solve a complex question themselves without interference.…

I think, its a tutor's responsibility in helping the student to understand their inner potential by suggesting ways to broaden their skill sets, pushing their boundary to convey that there is much to learn in life. Other than being a punctual and effective educator, I am flexible by allowing my students to learn in their own phase. It makes them…

The special thing about a tutor compared to a classroom teacher is that tutors deal with students on a much more personal level, with this, I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to understand and relate to the student personally his/her insights on the subject. Tutors can try to understand why the student either love,…

I think that the most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to understand their lifestyle and work according to that so that there is minimal pressure and more learning for them. In order to do that, it’s better to get to know the child and adjust according to what they prefer and how they want to be treated and/or taught. I think…

Recognise HOW a student actually learns. One of the hardest things a student has to learn is what method of studying actually suits them and once you find that the rest seems to fall in place.

I believe tutors have the biggest impact on how a student approaches a subject. Speaking from personal experience, I don't think I would've liked studying the subjects I had in year 10, 11 and 12 if I hadn't had good teachers who knew how to make the subjects interesting to learn. A tutor is capable of making studying feel less burdensome and I…

Local Reviews

Hi Tristan, Thank you for tutoring Macgregor, I have often found it difficult to motivate him to do homework and I have found your calm encouraging and persistent approach works very well with him. You are really great at keeping him engaged and focused at the same time, and work very well with him. You follow everything through in a sound, structured and well thought out way. I find your approach very professional. I have also found you very flexible and reliable and adapt to whatever Macgregor needs. Most importantly, Macgregor loves working with you and enjoys the way work with him. I look forward to seeing you continue to work with Macgregor next term.

Inside ElderslieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Mason worked through worded problems involving one- and two-step equations as well as score and frequency tables, focusing on calculating mean, median, mode, and range.

In Year 10, Olivia tackled data analysis by reviewing dot plots and stem-and-leaf plots alongside practical work on financial mathematics concepts like wages and overtime pay.

For Year 12, Ethan concentrated on advanced calculus skills such as differentiation and integration of logarithmic functions, using recent exam questions to apply these methods in context.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a student did not review geometry before a test, which left her underprepared—"only had one week before," as the tutor observed.

In Year 11 Extension Maths, summary sheets were not made ahead of new content on primitive functions; missing this step slowed recall during lessons.

For a Year 9 lesson, homework set to consolidate understanding of logs and exponentials was left incomplete, so gaps remained undetected until next session.

In senior calculus (Year 12), an over-reliance on calculator routines meant "needs to work on recognising differentiation rules" by hand, stalling progress when unfamiliar curves appeared in practice papers.

Recent Achievements

One Elderslie tutor noted a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to get stuck on rearranging equations—she now independently chooses the right method and finishes all practice questions without prompting.

A Year 11 student, who previously hesitated to attempt tricky trig identities, recently volunteered to explain her approach aloud during their session and successfully proved two new identities solo.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student has started breaking up irregular shapes into smaller parts for area problems after initially needing step-by-step help; last lesson, he tackled the hardest shape in his workbook on his own.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Rahul is an amazing tutor. He uses very effective techniques to help my daughter be confident in Maths a subject she struggles with. Thank you for sending him because he is absolutely fantastic.

We find Stephen to be a fabulous tutor and of great assistance to David in maths!

I am very happy with Erin's progress, Cassie has been a great help and she communicates with Erin well , which has seen Erin progressing to a higher grade.

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 Camden Council Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mawarra Public School.
