Probably one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide them with the support and confidence when approaching a subject or concept that they struggle with. Allowing the students to get to the point where they may no longer struggle in that subject. One of my major strengths as a tutor would probably have to be my…

Identifying the student's strengths and weaknesses is crucial. I would ensure their strengths are reflected through their work and that we are spending extra time focusing on the weaker areas. As a tutor, you act as the student's moral support, as the subjects they are receiving tutoring for are the subjects they find the most challenging. You are…

Engage, Communicate, Feedback. I think these three are the pillars of a student's willingness to learn. Apart from that, it is the tutor's responsibility to ensure the students learn. Every student is different and needs a different approach sometimes. We've known this since the big bang probably. But we keep ignoring something even more…

A tutor should not be someone who forces children to study. He or she should be a good friend, mentor for every child.

Inside GillmanTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Olivia focused on mastering number properties and operations, working through textbook problems in preparation for her upcoming maths test.

In Year 11, Ethan tackled calculus concepts by solving first derivative questions using differentiation rules from Chapter 2 of his textbook and completed multiple practice problems.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sienna reviewed applications of integration by going through practice questions to prepare for her assessment, ensuring she could confidently find areas under curves and solve applied problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student left work until the last minute, making it hard to finish a research task thoughtfully; "Jaeda does get 'bored' if she doesn't find the information straight away," her tutor noted, so reading for key facts was rushed and incomplete.

In Year 8 Maths, another student lost their homework sheet and had not completed set questions—when asked about arithmetic basics, gaps appeared that slowed progress on new material.

For one primary learner, missing library books and distraction led to careless spelling errors during reading time, with extra mistakes slipping through unchecked.

Recent Achievements

One Gillman tutor noticed that a Year 11 student, Sienna, began preparing questions in advance for each session—something she hadn't done before—which helped her pinpoint and address gaps in her maths understanding.

In Year 10 English, Jaeda shifted from being quiet during lessons to actively offering suggestions for improving her narrative writing, even taking the lead on revising sections herself.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who used to hesitate when unsure about spelling started correcting mistakes independently after reviewing them with the tutor and now brings in her homework every week.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Tavishi is going extremely well with all 3 kids, she is very positive and the kids all like her and find her easy to learn from. They are all keen to see her each week so. She is able to explain things in a varied manner so the kids always understand in the end if they didn't in the start. Her manner and ability to work with 3 very different children is wonderful. She is happy, smiling, polite, prompt, mature and has been a great addition to our afternoons. I would have no hesitations in recommending her to anyone and have done to a few friends already.

Tutor Stephen is a very good tutor and we would like to give him our highest recommendation for a job well done. We would recommend him to any parent who wants their child to improve in Math. Thank you for all your help Stephen and Ezy Math Tutoring.

We have used this organisation for my daughter Stephanie's HSC preparation and she ended up doing outstanding in maths in her HSC.

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 The Parks Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Joseph's School.
