Make content fun and understandable for you. My number one thing I disliked about school was how confusing some topics were presented, I believe that I can provide a fresh perspective on a lot of topics and subjects that most courses could not. I'm a very patient and understanding person who can fit a lot of subjects into different contexts for…

I think continuous support is the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student. Without having continuous support, the student cannot rely on their tutor to help them when they are having difficulty. I think my strengths are that I am patient, I've had great exposure to younger students. I also have an open mind which allows me to help…

Give them confidence! Students often require a tutor not only because they cannot cope with content, but because they have a lack of confidence in the subject. I have a lot of experience in working with students, allowing me to understand them better and therefore be able to effectively help and teach them. I am also continually engaging in…

The most important thing as a tutor is to guide the students think positively. I was influenced by my high school maths teacher so much and even now I remember what he said to the class, "all maths is easy, none of these are hard" and "practice makes progress". The encouragement from my maths teacher motivated me to have faith on myself that I…

I think a tutor has to cater their teaching methods according to particular students. For example, if you find that the student best learns by a tactile approach, I would recommend using more activities that help them learn rather than just working through questions on a piece of paper. I think this can make a big difference in the student's…

As a tutor, it is necessary to bring all students under one umbrella and give proper guidance. Students are learners. I always provide enough time for them to try and I always make them give it a go. This enables the students'…

Inside GuildfordTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Ethan practiced spelling patterns using Sound Waves and explored author's purpose in texts—distinguishing between persuasive, informative, and entertaining writing with examples.

In Year 9, Sarah worked on interpreting index laws through both simple and complex problems, then applied these to algebraic expressions and worded questions involving pronumerals.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Liam revised trigonometry by calculating unknown side lengths and angles using tangent ratios and practiced drawing diagrams from worded problems for geometry review.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student, despite solid maths understanding, forgot to write down working steps in algebra and Pythagoras questions; as one tutor noted, "he recognised sign errors only after seeing missing steps."

In Year 11 English, a lack of organisation meant test topics weren't communicated ahead—no time for targeted revision.

For a Year 7 student, skipping annotation during text analysis made it harder to find evidence for interpretations.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner often left working unlabelled when solving area problems, making it difficult to spot where confusion started.

Missed opportunities for feedback or review slowed progress in each case.

Recent Achievements

One Guildford tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to skip steps in algebra now carefully writes out all their working and talks through each question, which has made tricky problems much less overwhelming.

In a recent session with a Year 11 English student, the tutor saw them confidently analyse quotes by connecting character motives to broader themes—something they hesitated with before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who often rushed through reading slowed down and sounded out unfamiliar words independently, leading to much more fluent reading when tackling a harder text this week.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you for finding a new tutor so fast. I just want to let you know that even the very first session with James a great success. He is very competent, explains thins very clearly. Both of my children enjoyed it.

Stella is fantastic and Alex's maths grades went from D to B with Stella so we are very grateful. I am keen for her to continue because she was doing very well with Stella.

Dorcas was brilliant. Proactive, organised with a genuine interest in Yasmin's learning. Dorcas went over and above what was required of her and for that I am very grateful. Your company has always been professional and understanding also, no complaints there whatsoever. Thank you for following up with us and perhaps another time in the future we may need your services, I wouldn't go anywhere else to find a tutor.

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