I consider the two most important things for a tutor to do are to first inspire confidence in the student and identify the area of difficulty as precisely as possible. Students are generally not equipped to identify the precise area of their difficulty as they don't have the knowledge to fully place it in the context of the subject. By…

Being a tutor, one can do a lot of things for a student apart from teaching. A tutor has the responsibility of mentoring the students in career and general life.

Firstly, a tutor can give guiding questions instead of displaying the answers straightaway. This way, the students can be prompted to think of a way to get to the solution. Secondly, I believe a tutor should build the foundation first before going deeper into the subject. I am a patient person. I would give time for the students to digest the…

For me, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to motivate the student to study. In my opinion, students are the ones who make progress and I, as a tutor, am only a guide and a motivator. As for me, motivation is much more important than knowledge. Every student can find possibly any knowledge available by using Google, but…

The most important part of being a tutor is being friendly and available so students feel comfortable asking questions about what they find difficult.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to teach the student to enjoy learning, and impart a good studying method. After all, even the best tutor cannot help an unmotivated student, and a lack of self-motivation is the biggest obstacle that many underperforming students fail to overcome. I am good at following the student's pace.…

Thanks Evan for tutoring my topic 6 in SACE mathematics methods, when I had so much difficulties of understanding the derivative concept.

Inside Leawood GardensTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Lucy worked on index laws and practiced adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions.

For Year 11, Divyanshu focused on differentiating rational functions using first principles in Mathematical Methods and covered the basics of stoichiometry and unit conversions in Chemistry.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Mia tackled titration questions in Chemistry—including a brief introduction to chromatography—and explored the chain rule for differentiation in Maths using both f'(x) and dy/dx notation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12 Chemistry, one student often hesitated to attempt drawing complex organic structures without first reviewing textbook examples—this led to delays and incomplete practice, especially with esters and amides.

As a tutor noted, "he struggled to number the side chains accurately," which affected his confidence during timed tasks.

Meanwhile, in Year 9 Maths, another student found recalling index laws from memory challenging; when faced with unfamiliar surd questions or fraction conversions, written working was sometimes skipped or left half-finished.

This resulted in errors going unnoticed until later review sessions, adding frustration and extra catch-up work before assessments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Leawood Gardens recently noticed a big shift with a Year 9 student who, after previously struggling to put pen to paper, wrote a full-length essay independently within just one week.

Meanwhile, a senior chemistry student moved from needing step-by-step help with reaction equations to accurately identifying amines solo as primary, secondary, or tertiary by the end of the session.

For a younger learner, Lucy has begun tackling fraction problems without prompting—last term she hesitated and needed reminders for each step, but now attempts solutions solo before asking for guidance.

Local Spots for Tutoring
