Building that connection witht he student and finding what they needs and what is the best way they need to learn is the most essential thing. Especially as different people take information in different ways. Adapting your tutoring style towards the needs and capabilities of the student is the most important thing a tutor can do Patience, ability…

I think one of the most important things a tutor could do for their student is to never push them to work too hard or too fast. I also think it is extremely important for the tutor to be open-minded towards the student and take into account their preferences when working or learning. I think something else a tutor should always do for their…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them grasp/love a subject. I believe that without a genuine passion for a subject, a student can really struggle to proceed through it especially throughout the whole year. I think that if a tutor is able to help a student grasp/understand/love a subject, it can help them…

Teach a student for knowledge and full grasp of concept instead of just memorising answers, scribbling out workings(for maths especially) without knowing the reason why just to get those straight As on paper. I believe a tutor's job is to expand students' horizon and opportunities beyond what books and the school offer. Another important thing a…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be able to understand their needs and feelings towards their studies.

I think the most important part about tutoring isn't necessarily what the student sees but behind the scenes. Being a tutor means understanding the expectations and goals that are set out for the student, this includes being up to date on the child's curriculum and being prepared to touch on topics the student has previously struggled with in…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to firstly be patient.

The most important things a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, are not only concrete plans and a sufficient level of knowledge, but also empathy to understand what the student needs and their natural ability. A tutor, in my opinion, is not someone who places a high level of math practise in the hands of an art student who dislikes math. A…

Encourage lots of question-asking and transparency. There should be a strong rapport and connection between tutor and student to create a comfortable learning environment where the student sees the tutor as a mentor and friend rather than a strict teacher. This emotional connection can help promote active learning. Additionally, the tutor…

I would say that the tutor developing a relationship of trust with the student is one of the most important things. Whilst it\'s all good and well for the tutor to deliver the class well, if the student does not trust the tutor to actually better them in their studies, no progress will be made. I think that learning goes hand in hand with…

Inside MatravilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Arden worked on fractions and rates, with extra focus on applying these skills to typical exam content.

For Year 10, Zara practised financial mathematics concepts such as calculating interest and applying percentage increases using real-world scenarios.

In Year 11, Jack tackled advanced trigonometric identities and differentiation techniques, reinforcing his understanding through targeted questions drawn from recent past papers.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student hesitated to start extended questions in calculus, often spending extra time recalling formulas rather than confidently applying them—"she took a while to remember the formula."

In a Year 9 lesson, messy working and skipped steps in ratios meant sign errors went unnoticed until final answers were checked.

During Year 7 algebra revision, only familiar problems were attempted, leaving strategy-based challenges untouched.

For one senior student, over-reliance on practice with easy content left gaps when faced with exam-level bearing or integration tasks.

Under pressure, small mistakes snowballed into lost marks and growing uncertainty.

Recent Achievements

A Matraville tutor recently saw a Year 12 student, Lucy, who had previously hesitated with complex calculus problems now tackling differentiation and optimisation questions without waiting for hints—she's starting to place formulas independently where she once needed step-by-step guidance.

In Year 10, Ruby used to skip tricky probability tasks but is now drawing Venn diagrams herself to solve multi-part probability questions.

Meanwhile, Selena in Year 4 made a leap by identifying complicated patterns in number sequences after initially struggling to spot any regularity, then explained her thinking aloud as she solved a new time zone question on her own.

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 Malabar Community Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School Matraville.
