There are many important things a tutor can do for their students however, the greatest thing is being a supportive role model. If the student is able to respect and understand their tutor, there is a high chance that student looks up to that tutor. Therefore, it is important that the tutor can develop a professional relationship with the student…

I would say my strengths are being able to break down complex topics…

Making the subject easier than it was so they can understand easily. Rather than remembering things, understanding things in the right way is the best approach. I can make the students understand the idea behind the concepts. I use simple concepts to make the students understand the subject. Then develop the complexity of questions by making them…

I believe a tutor needs to be patient and adapting. They need to understand that everyone has different learning speeds and learning levels, hence their teaching styles should vary depending on each student, and they must be patient when helping. I can speak both English and Vietnamese, so I believe it is an advantage when helping a Vietnamese…

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…

I believe a good tutor needs to connect with the student and understand their student’s capability so that the student can be guided and helped to revive their performance in the classroom. Tutors must teach at the pace of their students and must tailor methods of teaching for that individual student specifically. A tutor needs to be friendly as…

Primarily, a tutor needs to be a good listener. Listen the problems of an individual carefully and provide the solution.

Local Reviews

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.

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.
