I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student include creating a supportive and encouraging learning environment, offering clear and comprehensible explanations, and adapting teaching methods to fit the student's unique needs. It's also vital to boost the student's confidence and help them develop effective study habits and…

A tutor should take the time to understand each student's unique strengths, weaknesses, learning styles, and goals. This enables the tutor to tailor their teaching approach and materials to meet the student's specific needs. Moreover, a tutor should encourage active learning by engaging students in discussions, asking questions, and involving them…

I think it is important for a tutor to be patient with their students. It is also important to take the time to understand how the student learns and communicates so that you can effectively support them where necessary. I think patience, empathy and communication are my strongest skills when it comes to…

A tutor functions not only as an academic instructor but also as a mentor, providing valuable life lessons to students. Their role extends beyond exam preparation, encompassing the cultivation of confidence and the reduction of study burdens through proper guidance. My strength as a tutor is my knowledge and patience. I can explain any topic…

Inside RichmondTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sienna practised the split and compensation strategies for addition and subtraction, along with revising multiplication tables up to 12.

In Year 10, Justin focused on analysing film techniques in "Whale Rider" and developing structured paragraphs for his essays using a simplified writing strategy.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Chitleen worked through persuasive essay structures, including crafting strong introductions and body paragraphs about "Follow the Rabbit Proof Fence," while also exploring language and film analysis techniques.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student's homework was frequently incomplete, with a tutor noting, "procrastination meant key practice was missed in maths."

In Year 10 algebra, progress slowed as he often worked through equations very slowly and hesitated to check his steps—extra time was lost retracing calculations.

A senior student struggled with calculator reliance during trigonometry; when the calculator malfunctioned, problem-solving stalled completely.

Meanwhile, in Year 5 English, overcomplicated sentence structures and missing periods made written work hard to follow: "he needs to simplify ideas and use periods correctly," observed one tutor. The result—clarity suffered and feedback couldn't be easily actioned.

Recent Achievements

One Richmond tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who, after weeks of hesitating to ask for help, started raising her hand and seeking clarification on trigonometry problems—something she used to avoid by guessing.

Another win came from a high schooler who'd been struggling with essay structure; he now drafts his introductions independently and applies feedback without needing reminders.

Meanwhile, a younger student who previously took ages to put ideas on paper is now able to express thoughts much faster, finishing story drafts in half the time it once took him.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Anthony is happy with his tutor and seem to work well with him. So all good so far.

Ethan is finding the tutoring to be very helpful st this time. Tiffany is very patient and organised and I can see that both children will get great benefit from the sessions

Clare is comfortable with Daniel already and has had at least a boost in confidence with having him "on her team".

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 Richmond Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Richmond Public School.
