Impart sound knowledge and learning skills to allow students to continue with these skills without a tutor Strengths I feel I am able to really get to know each of my students as an individual. I try to get a feel for what strategies work with each one. They do not all learn the same and what works for one may not for another. I always try to be…

A tutor can always support or help his/ her students, could take student's weakness in a positive way. A tutor can analyse the student's capabilities in a detailed manner which is very helpful to figure out the areas that need more focus and attention.

Understand them and their learning habits. If a tutor does not understand their student, they can never excel at tutoring that student or almost anyone. Helping a student grow and evolve. A student can be thought of as a growing plant. They need the correct amount of sunlight and water to grow. Similarly students need the right amount of help if…

Being able to teach a student enough material for them to be able to pass the class, that is what you are being paid to do.

I believe that making every session meaningful, productive but entertaining is key to learning.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to get a proper understanding of the level of mathematical 'maturity' of a specific student, rather than just assuming a certain background knowledge. Once this is established, it's possible to get the core of what exactly a student is struggling with (usually a particular fundamental concept) and…

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.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Austin is a positive, helpful young man who was very polite and knew his stuff. I would highly recommend him.

Tutoring is going well and Nick and Charlie are a great match! Nick has already made a great connection with Charlie.

Minh aka Truc has been fabulous in the short amount of time I have worked with her. She really has given me the confidence I needed to have a better mindset going in to an exam. From the start she was approachable and understanding. I never felt like I was being judged, she was able to answer all my questions with an explanation on how she got the answer.

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.
