I believe the most important thing a tutor/teacher can do for their students is to help them discover their true potential, eradicate doubt and hone their abilities in what may otherwise seem an impossible task. As a tutor, I believe I can help my students overcome any challenge they face in their studies, by teaching concepts in a way that they…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be patient and supporting and guide the student through any issues they may encounter. Show them the path on how to get there, not just the final answer. Make sure students understand the concept so that they may apply the concept to similar questions, not just memorise the steps. My…

The most important things I can do for a student are encourage them, teach them, and support them. By teaching them, I will teach them to the point where they actually understand what they are learning instead of them saying 'I understand' when they really don't. By encouraging them to do well, not only does it makes their parents and I happy and…

Not only can tutors help build up a students' confidence in areas they are particularly weak in, but they can also give insight into what is to come in further years of school and how to prepare for such content.

In my opinion, the best thing a tutor can do for a student is to acknowledge the students intelligence. Einstein said it best himself "Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid." And now we are learning more and more that there are multiple teaching styles…

On of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is make sure they understand the concept fully and understand how a formula was found instead of just using it to solve problems.

Everything is going fine at the moment. Jess is happy with Amandi and so am I. She is punctual, gets down business straight away, and keeps in contact with times etc. The good thing is Jess understands what she is saying and Jess said herself, it makes such a difference when it's one on one.

Inside MerrylandsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ali worked on understanding mean, median, mode, and range in maths, using school topics as a base.

For Year 8, Emily practised solving simple linear equations and expanded her skills to factorising algebraic expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Josh reviewed bivariate data analysis—comparing datasets using scatter plots—and explored correlation and lines of best fit for interpreting real-world trends.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student's work in algebra revealed steps were skipped in equation solving, which led to sign confusion and missed errors.

In senior years, a Year 11 learner was observed relying heavily on calculator shortcuts for statistics—familiarity with the function grew, but key working wasn't always shown or checked.

Meanwhile, a primary student's times tables practice remained incomplete, particularly for 6s and 7s; as one tutor put it, "he kept mixing up answers and left several questions unfinished at home."

During a Year 10 assessment task, rushed solutions meant careless notation crept in—answers became harder to follow and feedback less actionable.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Merrylands noted that a Year 10 student who used to quietly guess when stuck now asks for help without hesitation, especially when searching for easier ways to tackle algebra questions.

A Year 8 student, after struggling with equations, recently managed to solve them independently once the method was clarified—something they hadn't done before.

In primary, one younger learner surprised their tutor by reading times tables aloud confidently without needing prompts or checking notes.

Last week, another high schooler chose to break down word problems into steps on their own and started tackling long division with less guidance than usual.

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 Guildford Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Margaret Mary's Primary School.
