Besides grades, I would say that a tutor is also essentially teaching the student life skills such as responsibility and perseverance. I had this unmotivated student. He wouldn't complete the homework that I had given him and often fell asleep in class. I started to find out the reason behind his behavior and I used it to my advantage, Over…

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 here would be to ensure the student understands what is being taught and is able to move forward in their learning.

From my experience, one of the most important thing I can do is finding out the weakness of students and helping them overcome that weakness instead of letting them away from it. Tutors should be honest, too when there is the question that we do not know. Last but not least, tutors should help students build confidence and give support as much as…

Be patient, sometime students are having a hard time to understand some new confusing concepts in math or physics. It is important to explain the concept to students in a different way. During such a time, finding a new way to explain things in an easier way such students can learn is very important or students might give up on this point. In the…

In my opinion, I think that it is important to understand every student is different and has their way of learning. It is important for a tutor to identify and tailor a plan for each student so that they are learning efficiently. For example, as I am a visual and auditory learner, I learn most efficiently by watching lectures and videos and less…

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.
