The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to encourage them to be self-sufficient - I'm a firm believer that anybody can study by themselves, and that tutors are there to help the student bounce ideas off and help break down hard to digest pieces of education. I believe my main strength as a tutor is that for every student, I try to…

Personally, being adaptable and flexible in your teaching is the most important thing a tutor can do for any student. As individuals, we all learn at a different pace through a variety of mediums. Hence, it is important to easily recognise this and cater your teaching for each student. This creates a personalised and catered experience which is…

Students may need some help, so the tutor role is vital to guide them and simplify the process for them to thrive. Patience and kindness is great quality, and the education process is not a one-size-fits-all approach. I believe it is vital for the tutor to be patience. To maintain different capabilities, I can think fast to try various method of…

Tutors should be able to aid students with all problems, without simply giving them the answer. The ability to problem-solve, as well as help the student find solutions is much, much more important than simply answering questions. I come from a very large family, which I believe has enhanced my skills of collaboration and teamwork which are vital…

Help them improve their grades. I think throughout this process, you want them to understand what they're doing. Make sure they understand the concepts behind math formulas and such. However, ultimately I believe the most important thing is to see that being transferred and applied on grades and seeing evidence of improvement. I have…

Often times I've found that a lot of students struggle with certain parts in learning but don't speak up about them because of being afraid. In light of this, I believe the most important things a tutor can do is be the more proactive party in this situation - which should go without saying. Observing your student and noting down what difficulties…

A tutor can help a child open up their personality and provide them with confidence as well as knowledge. The tutor can help the child decide its future and help him shape his opinion.

For a tutor, the most important thing to do is analyze their students.. All students are different and have different learning patterns and methodologies. A tutor should then be able to change their approach of teaching based on the child. My biggest strength is that I can connect with students very well and I can explain concepts in a way that…

Inside RedfernTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Lily worked through perimeter and multiplication skills, using both traditional exercises and interactive math games to boost engagement.

For Year 7, James focused on algebraic expressions including expanding like terms as well as powers, practicing with step-by-step examples.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Priya developed her understanding of probability concepts and direct versus indirect proportionality, applying these ideas to real-world scenarios for clearer comprehension.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, difficulty was observed with setting out clear lines of reasoning when tackling probability problems; as one tutor put it, "she knows the subject well, but has trouble putting together the line of reasoning."

In a Year 7 lesson on fractions and division by decimals, written working sometimes became messy or incomplete, making it harder to identify where confusion arose.

A senior student avoided showing all steps in algebraic expansions during revision, which led to repeated sign errors and slower progress.

When reviewing multiplication tables (Years 3–5), some learners relied heavily on verbal recall instead of written practice, slowing mastery.

Recent Achievements

A Redfern tutor noticed a Year 11 student who initially struggled to explain her reasoning in probability is now confidently breaking problems into logical steps before solving them.

In Year 8, Sara recently showed real initiative during algebra—she now asks for extra practice with combining like terms, instead of waiting for direction, which marks a big shift from her earlier passivity.

Meanwhile, Lily in primary school has started double-checking her answers on complex fraction and area questions without being prompted; just last week she chose to rework a perimeter problem until every step matched the question's requirements.

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 Waterloo Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Inner Sydney High School.
