I want to help my students grow and learn, allowing them to succeed academically. Providing for them a supportive learning environment increases a student's confidence and willingness to learn.

I believe that the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to understand how they think and explain concepts clearly. I think that tutors should be responsible for knowing what levels their students are at and finding the best ways to make their learning process more engaging as well as guiding them through difficult tasks. Tutors…
An essential component for a tutor to effectively help a student is for the tutor to be able to adapt their teaching methods to fit the students learning personality.

One of the most important things when tutoring is to maxmise your effort to help a student in any way possible, without actually doing an assignment/answering the question for them.

Tutors need to be understanding and patient while knowing that students may not have the required knowledge to solve a simple question quickly. They may also have knowledge gaps which the tutor will need to discover and revise with the student for their question solving ability to improve. So most importantly, a tutor needs to ensure students are…
Be patient with them and encourage them to do their best. Consistency is key and results don't just appear overnight, trust the process and at the end all anyone can ask of you is to do your best. Another big thing is to always be honest with them, whether that means admitting that you don't know something (but can find out for them) or letting…

I believe a tutor can impact student's lives by providing the foundation he needs for further studies.

Hence a tutor can strengthen that foundation, at the same time be a source of motivation and a be a big brother. My main…

When a tutor…
I think that whilst the short-term benefits of academic success that a tutor can provide are immensely important, the true role of a tutor should be to introduce an effective, sustainable method of learning suited to the individual that can be used in their future academic pursuits. I think the best way to achieve this is to establish a…
From my point of view, identifying students' ability is most important as the effective learning always occur when they work on the zone of proximal development, the difference between what a learner can do without help, and what they can't do. If both teachers and students work within it, the success is almost guaranteed. I think the students…

My goal is to determine the student's weakness and strengths,and through this help them reach their goal. Depending on the students, I will differentiate instructions to support the distinctive…
Encouraging independence is significant. Students should be introduced to strategies to be independent and more effective learners.

This way students are able to conquer any challenge without fear which enables them to learn more effectively. This…
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
What they say about our tutoring
We find Stephen to be a fabulous tutor and of great assistance to David in maths!
I am very happy with Erin's progress, Cassie has been a great help and she communicates with Erin well , which has seen Erin progressing to a higher grade.
We could not be happier with MinJae as Adam's tutor!! Adam fist pumped the air after MinJae left last week (second session) and informed me he "absolutely loved" the session. He suits Adam perfectly and I often hear them laughing during the sessions. Adam was very comfortable with MinJae from the first session and we are truly grateful to have found him; he is polite, patient and generous with his time, not to mention extremely good at explaining mathematical processes. As a result Adam's understanding of maths has grown exponentially.
