Engage, Communicate, Feedback. I think these three are the pillars of a student's willingness to learn. Apart from that, it is the tutor's responsibility to ensure the students learn. Every student is different and needs a different approach sometimes. We've known this since the big bang probably. But we keep ignoring something even more…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student extend beyond academic instruction. While helping students grasp challenging concepts is crucial, equally vital is fostering a supportive and encouraging learning environment. A tutor should adapt teaching methods to suit the student's unique learning style, provide constructive feedback, and…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is provide a personal learning experience understanding their strengths and weaknesses. Furthermore, I believe it is important to provide a human connection, and be consistent such that these young learners believe their tutors really want the best for them. I'm very dedicated and would ensure…

A tutor should not be someone who forces children to study. He or she should be a good friend, mentor for every child. He or she should be able to show patience and empathy to her students and stand with them in achieving their dreams. As a tutor, my major strengths are good communication skills and patience. I strongly want my students to…

Alicia is reliable, punctual and very accommodating. My daughter looks forward to her tutoring each week and is benefitting from Alicia's ability to explain certain processes in a way she understands.

Inside Royston ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 2 student Naba worked on identifying and using the greater than, less than, and equals signs to compare numbers, as well as reading, writing, and using essential sight words like 'find', 'four', and 'for' in sentences.

Year 6 student Maim practised long division with three-digit numbers (including those with remainders) and improved her persuasive writing skills through a prompt arguing against homework.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Sarah focused on algebraic expressions—creating them from worded problems—and began learning how to square numbers in preparation for more advanced algebra.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9, confusion often arose when translating word problems into algebraic expressions; as one tutor observed, "he gets tangled in his thoughts when the answer is there, but gets lost in the process." This meant repeated prompts were needed to clarify what each question required, especially with addition versus multiplication.

For a Year 4 student, misunderstanding instructions in both maths and English led to avoidable errors—she only improved after reading questions aloud together.

In early primary, messy handwriting and reversed numbers made written work hard to interpret; copying sentences sometimes resulted in missing words or letters, which slowed progress.

Recent Achievements

One Royston Park tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 8 student's approach to fractions—after consistently getting homework problems wrong, he was able to tackle them successfully in-session and began talking through his steps out loud instead of guessing quietly.

A high schooler who used to get stuck on long division now solves multi-digit sums with barely any prompting and even identified her own mistakes without waiting for help.

Meanwhile, a younger student who struggled to form sentences independently is now using word prompts to create imaginative descriptions, only asking for guidance when truly needed.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Tahlia and Jonah are getting along very well so far and Tahlia appears to be taking on board the information that Jonah is giving her. Tahlia is enjoying her tutoring sessions and it doesn't feel like an hour to her.

Dorcas is a very patient tutor, she has lots of experience and is good with children. She is willing to go the extra mile and my son has been improving under her guidance.

I would like to say how impressed we were with El-Abed. You provide a really useful support service.

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 Payneham Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Marden Senior College.
