I think it is important for the tutor to influence the student to be more enthusiastic towards his studies. It is easier to learn stuff with focus and the right attitude. The tutor has to try and make sessions interesting. Also, at the end of the day, the student must not be dependent on the tutor. As a chemistry tutor, you know you have succeeded…

The most important thing a chemistry tutor can do for a student is to improve the student's attitude towards the subject. If a student is having struggles with certain subject, they may have a negative view on it which limits their openness and ability to learn. As a tutor, we should not just provide information to students but make sure they…

To me, the most essential role a chemistry tutor can fulfill is that of an enabler and empowerer. I believe a tutor's primary goal should be to provide students with a strong foundation of knowledge and a resilient problem-solving framework, not only to tackle academic challenges but also to navigate any obstacle life may present. An empowering…

A tutor should be there to support the student through all academic struggles they are facing and help the student reach all their academic goals. The tutor should be familiar with their students learning style and preferences, then adjust their tutoring to suit. A tutor should also create a safe environment where the student feels they can ask…

It is most important that a chemistry tutor doesn't give up on their students.

Local Reviews

First tutor didn't really suit our needs but this was resolved very quickly and I am now very happy with how things are progressing. If anything, there is probably a little too much communication via email. A monthly newsletter would be better than a series of single subjects as I tend to delete without reading them if I get too many.

Inside RiverviewTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student James practised division strategies and worked on adding and subtracting decimals in money problems.

In Year 10, Sarah revised coordinate geometry with a focus on distance and midpoint calculations, then tackled function transformations using graph sketches.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ben completed past paper questions involving sequences and series, as well as probability scenarios requiring multi-step reasoning.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Mathematics, a student lost nearly half their marks in a major exam due to repeated "silly errors"—often tied to negative signs and missing steps—despite knowing the underlying concepts. As one tutor observed, "almost 40 out of 80 marks lost due to silly errors."

In Year 7, trouble choosing between operations (addition vs. subtraction) slowed progress on worded problems and led to hesitation when faced with multi-step calculations.

Meanwhile, in primary years, short-term memory lapses with times tables (especially 6–8) meant relying on reference charts instead of mental recall during timed drills, adding pressure mid-task.

Recent Achievements

A Riverview tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to make frequent minus sign mistakes in calculus now double-checking his work and catching those slips before finishing.

In Year 8, a student who'd struggled with curve sketching managed to re-apply their understanding of transformations to tackle tougher questions with less hesitation than last month.

Meanwhile, one primary student who could only recall some times tables now completes a full 10x10 grid in under ten minutes—twice as fast as just a few weeks ago.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Zoe is great, Dylan really likes her and feels comfortable around her which is great. as you said, we wont be seeing actual result right away but I think its going to work :)

Thank you, the feedback I got from Michael is that the tutor Gavin is great and quite understanding.

Just letting you know how happy Jack is with Yuta. He's so lovely, friendly and polite and  has been  great helping Jack with his maths. Jack understands the way Yuta explains things and is much more confident with his maths now. So far this year Jack has been struggling with maths and his marks have been in the 40% range. Since the tutoring with Yuta started, Jack has sat for his Year 11 Yearly Exam in which he got 70%  which is a great improvement, so he was really happy about that and feels that with continued tutoring he can improve a little more. Jack would like to continue tutoring with Yuta  after the school holidays when school resumes, so we will keep in touch and book in again once Jack receives his new Year 12 Timetable. Thankyou.

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 Lane Cove Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Saint Ignatius' College, The Regis Campus.
