The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is make them feel at ease within the subject being taught. These include: making sure they do not put too much pressure on themselves if they do not understand a topic, and giving them the confidence to ask questions. Complete trust and availability on the part of the tutor is also important.…

I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to ultimately inspire them in a love of learning and hopefully pass onto them capsules of knowledge which are priceless. My strengths as a tutor are to challenge the pupils to think abstractly about language and harness the true power it possesses. I love hearing the pupil's own…

To help students understand what they can do or what options they have when they have questions or problems is important. Exclusively giving answers and solutions doesn't help students think critically and understand clearly. Instead, allowing students to figure out what they should do or comprehend certain ideas deeply would be something…

Probably one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide them with the support and confidence when approaching a subject or concept that they struggle with. Allowing the students to get to the point where they may no longer struggle in that subject. One of my major strengths as a tutor would probably have to be my…

The most important things i can do for a student include asking the students how they answered certain questions, allowing them to realise where their errors are and learn off of their mistakes. Being able to regurgitate questions into smaller sections is the key in answering exam style questions, thus it is very important for a tutor to be able…

Inside LightsviewTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Bianca focused on combinations and practiced the 9 times tables, reinforcing foundational multiplication skills.

For Year 11, Isabelle tackled trigonometric graphs and functions from her Haese textbook, followed by work on probability and statistics using targeted examples.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Petra concentrated on natural logarithms in her Haese text, then explored differential calculus concepts using first principles to deepen understanding for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12 calculus, skipping steps when setting out derivatives made it harder to spot sign errors—one tutor noted, "she needs to work on how she sets out her answer."

In a Year 9 session, incomplete homework and forgetting materials meant the student could not show recent schoolwork for feedback.

For a Year 3 student, reluctance to complete assigned times tables practice slowed recall in multiplication tasks.

Meanwhile, in Year 11 methods, over-reliance on calculator entry led to bracket mistakes during equation input; corrections ate into lesson time that could have been used tackling new content.

Recent Achievements

A Lightsview tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 11 student who had previously struggled to apply differentiation formulas—she now confidently implements them and is halfway through mastering sign diagrams, showing real independence compared to earlier sessions.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student who used to wait for guidance has started attempting maths questions independently before asking for help, demonstrating newfound initiative during their tutoring sessions.

In the primary years, one student became much more fluent in reading aloud after initially hesitating with longer passages; this week she read an entire page smoothly without stopping 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 Greenacres Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Martin's Catholic Primary School.
