The most important thing as a tutor is to help students connect to what they are learning. It is the job of the tutor to differentiate instruction based on the learning preferences of the students. Further, a tutor reinforces what the students have been learning at school. I am a teacher with 15 years of teaching experience. My last school was…

It is important that the tutor knows his/her student’s capabilities, so the tutor will have a basis on how he/she will tackle the…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student are listening carefully, being patient and identifying that not all students are the same. A strategy that may work wonders for one student could not be useful for another student. Being able to employ different strategies to different students is a key aspect of being a great tutor. My…

This not only allows for the student to understand concepts in other ways but also ensures and improves self esteem as often, students may fall behind from a…

I believe it's important for tutors to ensure that their students see them as a not only in a 'teacher' role, but someone they could look to advice if they ever feel the need - like a role model, or a mentor. Tutors should help their students gain confidence in their ability to achieve their goals, and by establishing small, achievable milestones…

The most important role a tutor plays for a student is to assist the student in developing their own agency in their subject area. When we believe a subject is beyond us, or we're not smart enough to grasp it, we shy away and don't push ourselves as hard. Often this belief has developed from what others have told us or from not having the right…

Inside KingsgroveTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Alex worked on identifying and extending number patterns as well as solving addition and subtraction problems using practical examples.

Year 7 student Olivia tackled fraction concepts, including comparing fractions of different denominators, and practised rounding numbers to the nearest 10 and 100.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Marcus focused on two-step algebraic equations and applied formulas to calculate circumference, using targeted textbook exercises for consolidation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 algebra, one student avoided showing working, instead "drawing out algebra questions to understand what the question is asking," which made it harder to catch and correct missteps.

A Year 8 student mixed up area and volume in geometry word problems by jumping straight to answers before reading fully—this often led to confusion when units changed mid-question.

Another in Year 10 struggled with index laws and was advised to improve note organization: "organising all math work in a neat manner, including tutoring worksheets and notes." Missed steps meant errors went unnoticed until revision time.

Recent Achievements

One Kingsgrove tutor recently noticed a Year 9 student who had always hesitated with multi-step algebra now working through wordier questions almost entirely on his own, no longer waiting for hints before starting.

A Year 11 student, previously quick to guess at answers in geometry, is now pausing to write out each calculation step before substituting values into formulas—a big shift from her earlier rush.

In primary, one Year 4 learner who used to rely on counting fingers has started tackling simple subtraction mentally and will even try times tables without prompting. Last session, he completed all ten problems in his head without reaching for his hands once.

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 Bexley North Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Ursula's College.
