To listen to them, I find that they often know best their own struggles, and it can be incredibly valuable to listen to them so that they can feel like they're being heard and helped. This can also help avoid the kids feeling like they are pointlessly covering areas they are already confident in. I have babysat and informally tutored for many…

Tutors must have an understanding of how their students learn and be able to adapt to that teaching style. As well as the tutors ability to connect with their student in order to create a more comfortable learning environment. I demonstrate a lot of patience when working with students as it is important to know that different people learn…

I consider building a strong relationship with students as a big part of tutoring. Tutors are in a unique position where they aren't teachers nor parents which means that we are here to help the students. However, keeping students motivated is a responsibility tutors must hold in a high regard as it is key to a student success. By building a…

I consider being patient and maintaining a positive attitude to be the most significant as Math can be a challenging subject for many students, so being patient and understanding helps explain concepts multiple times and in different ways if necessary. Additionallly, a positive attitude in order to motivate students to overcome challenges and…

As I said sticking with them the knowledge has been properly imparted is probably the most important thing. The other thing would be to make sure that the student is comfortable with the teaching methods and is having fun. The greatest strength that a tutor need is patience and I have had it tested a lot by my younger brother and it's fair to say…

A tutor is very important in providing support outside school. Ensuring that the student finds learning to be fun and interesting, in my opinion, is more important than focusing on higher grades.

The most important thing that I believe a tutor can do for a student is not simply just teaching and having them understand. But it is making the learning process more enjoyable. If the student doesn't enjoy learning, then they wouldn't learn regardless of how good the tutor is. Thus, I believe that the best thing we can do as tutors is to create…

1)As a tutor it is very important to understand student's personal needs and cater studies according to that. Get to know them, take few counselling sessions as that would help in getting to know students in a broader way. 2)Be Creative-It is very important for a tutor to be creative.

The most important thing a tutor can do is to show real life examples or threads that the student can relate to while learning new concepts. The learning in such an approach will lead to a properly spun network of knowledge with related real-life examples which will be easier to recollect for the student.

Inside FitzroyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Gus focused on measurement skills including unit conversions, perimeter, and an introduction to surface area, as well as exploring the angle sum in triangles.

In Year 9, Maryam worked on solving simultaneous equations using substitution and elimination, then applied these methods to practical problems.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ali reviewed operations with fractions—adding, subtracting, multiplying with different denominators—and extended this knowledge to simplifying algebraic fractional expressions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 6 student in Fitzroy showed difficulty setting out work neatly and consistently dating pages, making it harder to track progress—especially when tackling worded measurement problems.

As one tutor observed, "she struggles to walk through questions speaking out loud," which made it tough to clarify her thinking on fraction conversions and unit changes.

In Year 10 English, a student forgot to submit an essay by the deadline, delaying feedback and causing extra stress before class.

A senior maths student arrived unprepared for sessions without essential materials like a pen or laptop; this slowed the start and limited practice time.

Recent Achievements

One Fitzroy tutor noticed a Year 11 student, Celeste, who used to hesitate with trigonometry word problems now confidently solves bearings and graphing tasks on her own—she even tackles complex questions without prompting.

In another session, Maryam (Year 10) moved from confusion about box plots to clearly explaining five-figure summaries and solving simultaneous equations using both substitution and elimination methods.

Meanwhile, in Year 6 maths, Ella showed a shift from struggling with measurement topics to independently working through area and volume questions, finishing her test section on these without needing hints.

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 Fitzroy Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sacred Heart School.
