A bird learns to fly own its own.similarly the one important aspect in tutoring is that the students understand the basics and develop ideas of their own.Methods to solve a problem differ from person to person so a tutor can help them with the basics and methods.But at the end of the day the student must learn effectively.A successful tutor can do…

As I alluded to earlier, I think the student's enjoyment is extremely important. That's not to say that they should be having fun at the expense of gaining knowledge, much the contrary; I think the best way for a student to gain knowledge that will last beyond the next test or exam is to have it conveyed in such a way that they take a genuine…

Primarily, a tutor needs to be a good listener. Listen the problems of an individual carefully and provide the solution. Tutor can be a mentor not only of the academic but can be a mentor of other emotional and mental problems. Patience is the baby step to become an effective tutor. Some children might need patience levels that may put me through…

In my opinion, as a tutor, it is very important to cherish the students as they progressed, acknowledging their work and encourage them to try to do with their full potential. Besides, it is important to have an understanding of their best way of learning, and encourage them to question in their learning. Furthermore, awareness of their wellbeing…

This is achieved through developing a strong relationship with the student ensuring the one-on-one sessions are productive.

Being able to help a student achieve future problems on their own by helping them understand how to do a problem rather than just providing the solution is one of the most important things I consider a tutor can do for a student. I also think it's important to be prepared to help them with their topics by preparing first myself. I believe my…

I believe that in order for anyone to understand the material being taught - the tutor must begin with the fundamentals and basics; breaking down the information and then ensuring the student is able to explain it back is what I believe works best. This requires patience, which I believe is an essential quality a tutor must maintain in order for…

A tutor has to be patient and welcoming for their students. The reason these students come for tutoring is because they face difficulty keeping up with school. So they should be given the space to understand at their own pace, in their own method and a teacher needs to recognize that. We need to recognize the method which we choose to teach a…

The objective is for the student to learn in the most efficient and enjoyable manner. I am a University lecturer and a senior…

Luke is loving Leo and looks forward to every lesson. His maths has greatly improved since we started with Leo and his confidence is increasing exponentially. In fact, his Maths teacher is so impressed by his abilities, he is keen to push Luke to take up studies in Maths at a higher level in Yr 12.

Inside ParalowieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Archie revised BIDMAS and fractions, working on accuracy with operations involving both.

Year 8 student Isobel practised converting fractions to percentages as well as adding and subtracting fractions, focusing on method consistency.

For Year 5, Suhana began partitioning numbers, tackled basic multiplication and division, and explored simple fractions using hands-on examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student struggled with test questions on mitosis and meiosis, needing extra hints rather than using feedback to revisit key concepts.

In Year 9 algebra, a tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in indices simplification," which made it hard to spot calculation errors.

A Year 8 learner hesitated to attempt composite shape problems independently, often giving up quickly if unsure how to begin.

Meanwhile, a primary student avoided working through multi-digit subtraction when confused by 'borrowing', offering guesses instead of engaging with the process—leaving misunderstandings unresolved and confidence low after setbacks.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Paralowie noticed one Year 11 student who had previously hesitated to check her answers now backchecking her work independently and catching mistakes before submission.

In a recent high school session, another student started talking through his thinking process out loud while solving algebraic questions—something he hadn't done before—which helped him solve problems with fewer errors.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student, who used to get flustered by large numbers of math problems, has begun calmly breaking them into smaller chunks and tackling each section without panicking. Last week, she finished a whole page independently.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Yes we are happy with the way things have started.  Ahmad-Firdauz has been very helpful and we believe has already helped Jayden improve is focus. Jayden has a math test today which we are hopeful show improved results even if by just a slight margin.

Jeevan is happy with Posearn's approach and seems to have settled well with the arrangement. He has been on time every lesson and seems to be a dedicated tutor. We are looking forward to seeing progress in Jeevan's Maths grades but for now we are pleased that he has someone he can turn to for help when he encounters problems with homework.

Kyle engaged with Josephine very quickly. He has a delightfully engaging and affirming nature. She opened up immediately and felt more confident to tackle maths problems in the session. Very pleased to have him on board.

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 Burton Community Hub Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Temple Christian College - Bethany Campus.
