I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to open a rapport that makes them feel safe and understood, an environment where they are not afraid to try and even not afraid to fail, in the knowledge that with help and direction they can try again and do better. With the acceptance that 1 style (or even 10 styles!) of teaching…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make them want to study a topic, to present a topic in a certain way that makes the student more enthusiastic to learn. Although understanding a subject is extremely important, I believe the students' willingness to learn is equally important as trying to teach a student to…

The learnings given by a tutor needs to be tailored as per the student.. Every individual is different, has different interests, has different caliber.

It is very important as a tutor to understand your student. Be his silent friend and connect with him. Read his mental abilities, his interest, observe his qualities and disabilities, his way of learning things. And then try to impart the teaching depending on all these factors. Each student is different and so is the method of teaching. Teaching…

(1) Value of patience: Being a tutor/teacher means I have to face a range of students whose level of understanding completely vary. My students will emotionally accept me only if I am patient enough.

Local Reviews

The tutoring is going really well. Daniel is very knowledgeable and has found the right level to start working at.
Stephanie, Kurralta Park

Inside Kurralta ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Archie worked through **perimeter and area problems**, then tackled time calculations using worded examples.

In Year 8, Zara focused on comparing **equivalent fractions** with visual aids and practiced converting between fractions and decimals.

For Year 10, Lachlan consolidated his understanding of the **Pythagorean theorem** and right-angle triangles before moving on to introductory trigonometry using targeted practice questions from both schoolwork and his electrician workbook.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student's maths assignment progress was slowed by messy, disorganised sheets and books—one tutor noted, "fixing this may help her keep track of instructions and tasks."

In Year 10 algebra, a student hesitated to review answers after practice questions; as the tutor observed, this led to small errors persisting in factoring and rearranging equations.

Meanwhile, a senior student tackling exam-style worded problems often didn't engage with feedback or clarify confusing instructions, which left her uncertain about how to begin multi-step questions. Moments like these meant time was lost on avoidable confusion instead of deeper learning.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Kurralta Park recently noticed Tia independently catching and correcting her mistakes while working on trigonometry problems—previously an area she'd struggled with during tests.

Another secondary student, Lachlan, has started applying the correct algebraic operations on both sides of equations without prompting, having previously only altered one side and getting stuck.

Meanwhile, Natalia in primary school is now regularly identifying when she's missed parts of a question and returning to fix them on her own; last session, she caught an error reading an analogue clock and explained how she would correct it without any help.

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