Encouragement is the most important quality a tutor should have. Doubt is unfortunately a huge negative factor when trying to learn so when a tutor shows a true belief to a student, confidence sparks & can fuel motivation. I believe a tutor is meant to empower their student to success By personal experience, I’ve had both, a tutors who just…

Every student is different and every student has different ways of understanding concepts. Some might learn them easily via a practical approach while others focus on the theory first. Understanding the weak points of a student and focusing on the strength of a student is very important for a tutor to know. One of my strengths is a strong…

A tutor’s role and objective is multi-faceted, I would consider the most important thing that a tutor can do for their student is not only to reinforce and develop their knowledge and competency of a subject and help them academically, but also help foster in that student a confidence in themselves and a genuine interest in learning. I believe…

The most important thing is to reassure a student that if they push themselves, they can achieve anything.

A tutor should firstly be encouraging; to be more confident in their studies, for them to work hard and try their best, and to inspire a love of learning. Secondly, it is imperative to be understanding. Every student is unique, with varying goals, learning styles, and abilities, so learning should be tailored to each individual to ensure every…

The most crucial things a tutor can do for a student are academic supervision, human connection, and consistency, and the combination of these can possibly redefine a class, subject, or school more generally for a learner.

Be a good friend with the student first. Teach him as if he his friend is teaching him. Be strict at a times when he is not listening but its good for him so its ok to be strict sometimes.

The most crucial thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to foster an atmosphere in which they feel free to ask for assistance without the fear of judgement. Additionally, I think that assigning extra work—despite the kids' resentment—can be beneficial because it will empower them to solve the problems on their own and promote…

I think there are two things a tutor can do for a student. 1. Give a confidence in the subject and it will improve his/her confidence as a whole. 2.

Local Reviews

Vivian is an exceptional tutor for my 16 year old son. We have worked with her during the school holidays to ensure he fully understands his year 10 math and is well prepared for year 11. She is punctual, polite, my son enjoys working with her and his maths and his confidence with maths has improved a lot. Thanks Vivian.

Inside MerriwaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Oliver focused on calculating area and perimeter for various shapes and reviewed homework tasks on measurement.

Year 8 student Mia practiced solving simultaneous equations and worked through key problems involving factorisation to build confidence with algebraic methods.

For Year 10, Emily revised quadratic equations from Chapters 10A–10D, using worked examples to consolidate understanding of different solution techniques.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often delayed starting new geometry questions, which sometimes meant less time for feedback and review during sessions.

In Year 10 Maths, relied heavily on using the formula without always knowing why it works, so when faced with a composite area problem (like a trapezium prism), progress stalled until guided through the logic.

A senior student preparing for OLNA-style exams forgot to bring necessary materials, such as their assessment sheet, leaving both tutor and student unclear about expectations.

One note captured a moment: The iPad was distracting most of the time, even though it was needed occasionally.

Recent Achievements

One Merriwa tutor noted that a Year 9 student, who used to rely on hints for every step, now independently sets up and solves simultaneous equations—especially impressive given her earlier hesitation with rearranging formulas.

In Year 11 English, Ella, who previously kept her ideas brief during assignments, took the lead in sharing her opinions about film themes and backed them up with thoughtful examples.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once guessed at tricky words during reading is now pausing to sound out new vocabulary or break down base words before moving on.

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 Clarkson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Merriwa Primary School.
