As a tutor, the ability to get a student invested in the topic they are learning and keep it sustained by making the process an organized effort through active conversations and dialogue is vital in any classroom. Being a student myself, I understand the mindset a student has when trying to mentally grasp a concept and use it to solve problems.…

A very personal thing I like to teach my students is to pay attention to the small details. Each and every word, each and every equation. It is the ability to start at a granular level that makes the grand ideas and concepts easier to understand. My strength is really my ability to understand the student well. I believe different methods of…

Support them. Sometimes students just need that boost of confidence and support to understand. Frustration in their own learning can often end up being the reason why a concept is not being understood. I was an inclusion support assistant at a primary school, working with various kids with learning difficulties and disabilities. This has given me…

I think identifying the misunderstanding and making sure their foundation is solid. As long as they understand the content, they will be able to answer the questions! I would say I'm very patient, and due to my fluency in English, I'm able to easily get the child to understand the content. I also excelled throughout school, and have a high GPA at…

A tutor must be very involved with the student's learning experience, ensuring they are comfortable and confident with the material. The tutor must also be approachable whenever the student has a query so that they can get their doubts clarified as soon as possible. A tutor should always provide real-life explanations so the student can make…

I always say that the most important thing is being patient. I know that every child is different, so tutors have to adapt to each child and teach children in the appropriate way, since each student understands subjects differently. I am a young person, so I am able to understand a child in many situations. I am aware of mental health and the…

Beyond the learning of a specific subject, which may appear to be the main goal of tutoring to some, the most important things I believe a tutor can do for a student is to offer an enjoyable experience of learning.

Local Reviews

Everything seems to be going well so far. There was a lot of laughter at this week’s session. That’s got to be a good sign! I asked Oscar why he had fun with Nick and not me. He said “I don’t mean to offend you Mum, but Nick knows what he’s doing!”. How’s that for a testimonial?

Inside NewmarketTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Lily focused on percentages and an introduction to Year 7 algebra, exploring new terminology and building comfort with simple equations.

For Year 8, Jay worked through solving one- and two-step equations as well as graphing functions, reinforcing his understanding by practicing with different types of variables.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Sarah reviewed the Pythagorean theorem alongside measurement concepts and geometric transformations using diagrams to clarify each step.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, one student relied on mental calculations and avoided writing out steps, which led to missed negative signs; as a tutor noted, "she tried to do it all in her head and lost track of the negatives."

In a Year 10 session on indices, skipping written solutions meant errors weren't caught until checking at the end.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 spelling activity showed that forgetting to count letters aloud resulted in vowel combinations being overlooked.

When tackling worded perimeter problems in Year 7 maths, confusion arose from not revisiting formulas or reading questions fully—time was spent reworking rather than building confidence.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Newmarket noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to speak up—this week, she began clearly voicing her doubts and asking questions whenever she was stuck, instead of just nodding along.

Another high schooler surprised himself by getting his first ever 100% on a homework set about decimals, after struggling with careless errors before.

In a Year 4 session, one student who used to rush ahead is now pausing to show full working for each step in word problems, making fewer mistakes as a result and choosing to explain her reasoning out loud.

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 Grange Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Ambrose's Primary School.
