I am smart, young and very well spoken. I speak from a place of confidence and can be very entertaining for kids/youth. I would like to think I am quite…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to clear the concepts. If a student knows the concept well then he/she can apply it to any problem pertaining to a particular topic. A tutor can do this by giving real world examples and discussing about the topic in general. Math is one of the most fun subjects to learn if one understands…

A tutor can be a role model for the student. Generally students observe character and skills of a tutor and in most cases they try to imitate them.

Inside RichmondTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Sam worked on reviewing questions missed in Maths Space, with a focus on statistics and interpreting data sets.

For Year 8, Mia covered the foundations of algebra including expanding brackets and factoring, then practiced graphing parabolas using turning point form.

In Year 10, Liam reviewed motion concepts such as velocity and displacement through problem-solving exercises, and tackled chemistry mole calculations to strengthen quantitative analysis skills.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 exam preparation, one student's revision focused mainly on familiar question types, avoiding harder Units 1 and 2 calculation problems. "She got these wrong on the exam, so this will be our next focus."

In a Year 8 algebra session, work was often messy and steps were skipped—making it hard to spot where mistakes happened.

A primary student hesitated to show working in fraction problems out of fear of being wrong; as a tutor noted, "he needs more confidence to go with his gut instinct."

These patterns led to repeated errors and slowed progress in mastering new material.

Recent Achievements

One Richmond tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to rush through questions now takes time to read each one carefully, catching details she previously missed.

In a senior session, another student who had struggled with algebra last term is now confidently recognising like terms and solving equations without prompting—last week, he finished all assigned problems independently for the first time.

A younger student also surprised her tutor by starting to ask clarifying questions during lessons rather than guessing quietly; this shift meant she solved several tricky fraction problems correctly on her own.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Hello , both Ruby and I are very happy with her expanding understanding and Boris is a positive , patient and focused young man , he seems to be connecting with Ruby quite well with mutual respect . We look forward to more understanding.

Thank you for your follow up of my son's tutor.  I am very happy with Ben and my son told me that he is getting along with Ben, much better than his previous teacher.  Ben's teaching techniques is very different compare to his previous teacher, therefore my son is finding he has learnt much more with Ben.  Thank you for sending him such a good teacher.  I would highly recommend Ben to my friends if they ever need a tutor. Thank you.

I would like to say that Justin is a wonderful young man. I know it's only early stages but Arin had a smile on his face that filled my heart. Arin has a lot of respect for Justin, which tells me there is a good connection or understanding developing. Thank you for finding us Justin. In Arin's words ' I have learnt more with Justin in three lessons than with the other tutor we had over the past year'Âť. I think we can say Arin has gotten off to a great start. My only hope is that Justin is also comfortable with us.

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 Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Bindjiroo Yaluk Community School-Richmond Campus.
