The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be compassionate and assess their situation and help them navigate through the problems they are facing. Secondly, I'd say is to impart knowledge to the student as this is his/her base and thus it needs to be strengthened and help them realize their dreams and guide them to it. One of my…

I think a tutor should be able to tell if their student understands something or not, often they don't say it outright and asking them directly might not get them to admit it. So by asking them to solve a question that indirectly uses the concept might help us figure out if they're having trouble or not. Students should also feel comfortable with…

I think a tutor can teach a student how to learn a topic after it is explained by the tutor. Because at the end, it is the student who needs to learn by themselves after something is being taught to them. A tutor should make sure that anyone can learn those topics on their own if they are introduced by the tutor. My first strength as a tutor is my…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide them with "methods" of learning instead of explain the concepts as they are. Because with methods, students can apply the methods elsewhere. Another thing is to teach students how to "become" a tutor as well. Because this is the way I learn difficult subjects. I imagine…

Besides helping them understand and learn a topic, the tutor should also help the student master the topic through mastery learning. Mastery learning is a way of designing units of work so that each set of tasks focuses on a particular learning objective and students must master a task to move onto the next one.

According to me the most important trait in a tutor is patience. It is not necessary that each child learns at the same pace. A tutor should also possess the ability to create and provide problem statements which help the student to get a grip over the topic. Along with a good speaker a tutor must be a good listener making the session more…

Tutors should check for understanding as they go and constantly build confidence so that the student feels like their abilities are improving. When a student feels confident, wonderful things begin to happen. Their curiosity is ignited, and they are more likely to ask questions in class and read additional texts about things that interest them.…

Kasi K, Ridleyton

Inside RidleytonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Olivia worked on converting between kilometres, metres, centimetres, and millimetres as well as tackling worded problems that required choosing the right mathematical operation.

In Year 8, Ethan practised expanding algebraic brackets and applied the difference of two squares formula to a range of examples.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Ava focused on solving quadratic equations and calculating the distance between two points using coordinate geometry methods.

Recent Challenges

Repeatedly forgetting to complete homework limited the chance to apply lesson feedback and slowed progress with algebra for a Year 7 student.

In Year 10, messy or cramped working in tests led to sign errors that weren't spotted until marking. She could consider spacing out her writing, which would help her see things clearer.

A senior student didn't use written notes efficiently for revision, so key formulae were missed in problem-solving. When a test was upcoming, she did not alert the tutor in advance, missing out on targeted preparation support.

Recent Achievements

A Ridleyton tutor noticed a real shift with Athena, a Year 10 student, who recently moved from hesitating on worded algebra problems to solving them efficiently and even scored 87% on her latest test—her highest yet.

In another session, Valentina in Year 8 began proactively writing down her thought process during homework instead of waiting for hints, helping her secure full marks.

Meanwhile, Natalia in primary school is now confidently breaking down multi-step worded maths questions and independently selecting the correct operations, something she struggled with just weeks ago.

Miranda is a wonderful, professional and patient tutor. The first day Marcus met her he opened up to her and feels really comfortable. He is so happy and enjoys tutoring.I think Miranda is a great fit for Marcus .

Tom was absolutely amazing. He was able to create a great connection with Grace immediately. It was the first time I've seen her smile while doing math! He really provided some achievable challenges and she is actually excited for her next session.

Belle has benefited immensely from Amir's tuition and she has regained her confidence in both English and Maths.

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 Hindmarsh Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Australian Islamic College Adelaide.
