In my opinion, a tutor must be able to empathize with the student and create a safe space for them. Its important to be constructive and patient especially with the ones that take time to grasp topics. One must keep instructions clear and always strive to empower the child by focusing on their strengths. Engage them instead of lecturing…

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…

A tutor should be strict about discipline but at the same time friendly and lenient understanding students problem. He should be available on phone all the time for his students during the exam period.

A tutor has to be patient and welcoming for their students. The reason these students come for tutoring is because they face difficulty keeping up with school. So they should be given the space to understand at their own pace, in their own method and a teacher needs to recognize that. We need to recognize the method which we choose to teach a…

Karen

Inside MagillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 Kieron focused on confidence intervals for means and proportions, as well as tackling practice questions on the Central Limit Theorem and normal distributions.

For Year 11 Jessica, recent sessions involved problem solving with similar triangles and exploring integral calculus to find the area under curves.

Meanwhile, Year 8 Nick worked through trigonometric problems using sine, cosine, and tangent ratios, along with an introduction to permutations and combinations for his maths assignment.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, one student did not complete assigned homework questions for networks, leading to repeated explanations instead of building new skills—"we spent the session going over concepts which I had already explained."

A Year 11 student preparing for calculus and physics tests repeatedly avoided setting up a revision timetable, making last-minute study more stressful.

In Year 12, incomplete assignments were common, with several sessions focused on unfinished reports or calculations rather than exam practice.

For a Year 9 student, untidy written work in maths made it hard to trace errors and check steps clearly during problem-solving.

Recent Achievements

A Magill tutor noticed Kieron, a high school student, now brings his own questions from homework and class to each session—something he was hesitant to do earlier in the year.

Olivia, also in high school, recently worked through challenging calculus problems she'd previously avoided; last week she completed all revision questions on her own before moving to the next chapter.

In Year 7 maths, Jessica had struggled with ratios for weeks but this time began explaining her reasoning aloud as she finished every question without prompting from her tutor.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Morgan has responded very well already with Hazel.  She said her explanations of problems has made her maths much more easier. We are very happy with Hazel.

Despite a few minor glitches for our first few sessions with James arriving late (all sorted now I think), we've been VERY happy with the way he's working with Emily. She lacks confidence in maths, and I think James's gentle and patient approach is really helping.

Rishi is great guy and working well with our son James. We realise it is early days but James is already more confident with his approach towards maths. Thanks for checking in with us. It is appreciated.

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 Campbelltown Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Magill School.
