I think the most important things a tutor can do is to: - listen to the student and understand their perspective before teaching the concept - find out the students strengths in order to construct an effective way of teaching - be patient and persistent - build confidence for the student - communicate with their parents and guardians in…

The most important things for a tutor to do is to help a student strengthen their own ability to learn independantly. It is far more important that a student understands the learning process and what works best for them rather than simply memorise a single topic. Having transferable skills as a student and being able to apply their knowledge to…

I believe a tutor should be a role model. Where they should embody not only the study skills they teach but also be honest, patient and a motivator, all whilst being professional. Through this a student can grow both academically and as a person allowing them to reap the rewards more deeply. A tutors role is to listen and provide their clients…

In addition to this, it is important for tutors to create and maintain relationships with their students that emulate trust and belief in their abilities. A…

Listen to them, let them teach you about themselves, let them have a go and try things and trial and error. No matter how many times they get it wrong they will always learn more by putting the effort in rather than just being given the answer. Also find out what techniques help them learn best, some students can pick up things in different ways…

A tutor must be able to gain the trust of the students to allow them to feel comfortable enough for the learning to commence. An intimidating environment is an ineffective one for teaching.

In my experience tutoring students, as well as being a student myself, I believe a person needs to do four main things in order to be a good tutor; they need to be able to assess what their students are lacking, know what you can do to improve on their skills, communicate well, and boost the overall confidence of the student and the confidence…

Inside MinnamurraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Lily revised algebra basics and solved two-step equations, using **worked examples to clarify each step**.

In Year 10, Ben completed a pre-test on surds and practised **simplifying expressions from his classwork**.

For Year 11, Mia focused on financial maths topics including tax and wages, applying **real-life scenarios to consolidate her understanding of pay calculations and deductions**.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a student repeatedly avoided setting out working in algebra clearly—"he skipped steps, so small sign errors weren't caught," one tutor observed. This led to extra time spent searching for mistakes rather than understanding the method.

A Year 10 student tackling trigonometry struggled with worded problems, often rushing through reading without underlining key details, which meant incorrect triangles were drawn from the start.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student hesitated to label each step when solving financial maths questions; as a result, the final answers sometimes didn't match what was being asked.

Recent Achievements

A Minnamurra tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to skip steps in her working now consistently lays out her calculations clearly when tackling z-score problems.

In a high school session, another student who had struggled with finance topics surprised herself by not only remembering key equations but also explaining them back during practice questions.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who previously hesitated to attempt worded maths problems has started reading each question aloud before confidently solving them one step at a time, finishing an entire worksheet without needing prompts.

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