I consider time, listening, and encouragement as the important things a tutor can do for every student. I believe that the starting point is to look into where the student is coming from to better assess what the problem is. Then, a tutor should acknowledge that everyone learns at a different pace and with a distinct learning style. Some…

I think the best tutor is one who guides the students properly and fairly not only in their academics but also about life challenges. Most importantly a tutor should be ready to explain a single concept even 10 times to students if they are not able to get that without getting annoyed Well , I'm quite patient which I think is my biggest strength…

Not to teach an exact method for solving a problem, but to teach methods which work for particular general types of problems- techniques which allow them to become more familiar with how mathematics works. Also, to give them the confidence to experiment and learn from their mistakes. I understand how daunting a subject can be if a student loses…

Be honest as this helps to establish rapport and trust, the two most critical elements to a successful tutoring relationship. The tutor-student relationship should be viewed as a partnership. You are not there to take the place of the instructor. Let the student know you are there to work with her to supplement classroom and individual study. #…

The most important thing is to develop the students confidence and give them the ability to take on problems on their own later down the track. I feel that this is the main key to success as without this ability the student will give up half way. Empowerment and showing them that it isn't as hard as what they think is crucial. I am a very patient…

Inside New PortTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 Maddison discussed her challenges with fractions, division, and algebra, then mapped out a plan to improve by taking better notes and seeking returned assessments.

For Year 10 topics, Sarah focused on mastering indices through reviewing quiz errors and practiced applying the gradient formula to graphs.

Meanwhile, Year 8 Daniel consolidated his understanding of multiplication and division, then tackled coordinate geometry problems involving points on a graph and the use of the gradient formula.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student arrived without her homework or word list, which meant spelling practice could not happen as planned.

In Year 11 Maths Methods, one student admitted to "not having practised any of the work she was taught this week," resulting in confusion during revision for an upcoming test.

Another Year 9 student struggled to locate completed homework, so much of the session was spent redoing those tasks rather than moving forward.

One senior student relied heavily on mental maths in circle problems—she needs to learn to write out each step as she goes—which led to unnecessary errors and lost time.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in New Port noticed a Year 9 student has started taking real initiative, now regularly asking her teacher for test feedback and attempting all assigned homework without reminders—this shift from passively waiting to actively seeking improvement is new for her.

In Year 11 maths, one student who used to rush through problems is now pausing to double-check steps and talks out loud as she works, helping catch mistakes before they happen.

Meanwhile, Esther in Year 3 recently moved up four reading levels and finished a much longer book than usual during her session.

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 West Lakes Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Portside Christian College.
