I believe being available to answer questions and elaborating on concepts to make understanding them easier is an important aspect of being a maths tutor. Also, making sure the student is putting in the work rather than simply handing them the answers ensures the student is benefitting from their tutoring sessions. I am able to successfully…

The most essential thing a maths tutor should do for their students is to encourage them to improve every day by ensuring that they understand the concepts clearly. While doing so, it is also important that the students enjoy their learning and do not become demotivated. I was not particularly the most brilliant student in my junior years however…

In order to do that, it’s better to get to know the child and adjust according to what they prefer and how they want to be treated and/or taught. I…

A tutor should be able to help clear each and every notion that the student has about a certain topic. They should not get tired of explaining concepts on repeat.

Inside RuseTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Oliver worked through algebraic equations, focusing on simplifying and expanding expressions, and revisited past exam questions to strengthen his understanding of minus signs in equations.

For Year 8, the session with John covered perimeter calculations for composite shapes and involved estimating and converting between different measurement units like meters and centimeters.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 lesson with Emily focused on mastering long division alongside developing confidence with decimal place value using targeted practice exercises.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student repeatedly relied on mental maths in algebra and fractions, skipping written working—this led to errors with negatives and simplification. As a tutor noted, "she needs to show working out during questions to reduce silly mistakes."

In Year 7, one student left homework incomplete and rarely reviewed feedback; missed practice meant concepts like long division never quite stuck.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner hesitated to write answers for fear of getting them wrong, erasing attempts instead of using feedback—so progress slowed when new spelling or times tables appeared. A single missed step often turned into lost marks or confidence.

Recent Achievements

One Ruse tutor noticed a big change in Oliver, a high schooler who used to hesitate with algebra—he now works through equation problems without pausing and even picked out his own exam mistakes before the tutor stepped in.

In another session, Misheel, also in high school, flagged tricky homework questions on her own instead of skipping them and completed almost everything else accurately.

A Year 4 student who once struggled to follow text now reads entire book chapters aloud with only a few missed words and placed fractions correctly on number lines by himself.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thanh has been an amazing tutor, she has worked really well with Bella. I will be highly recommending her to anyone that needs help.

We are very happy with Mina. In a short time Jamison's marks have improved greatly and Jamison enjoys working with her.

My son understood exactly what Margaret taught him the other day, with which he was having a lot of problems with.

Maths tutoring in Ruse

We have all had the experience of a "bad teacher" and we know it's not pleasant. Often the teacher is simply a bad match for that particular student rather than being a "bad teacher" in general but in either case the student has a serious problem. This is why many parents contact us for a private tutor - their child just can't "get it" when their teacher is teaching.

It's incredible how one explanation results in more confusion whereas another results in that "aha" feeling we all love so much! It is really a matter of getting the "right" tutor and not the "best" one. We see this every day in our work. A tutor might have hundreds of hours of experience and might have received dozens of testimonials from students, however, even such a tutor doesn't click with all students. Every tutor gets bad feedback sometimes. It's all about getting the right fit and this is what we do!

We will organise a 1-on-1 maths tutor in Ruse to come to your home at a time of your choosing. They will be a local Ruse maths tutor so scheduling lessons will be easy. Also, no booking fees, no minimum terms, no cancellation costs, no nonsense! And here's the best thing: your first lesson is a trial. So if you feel that the tutor wasn't a good fit, we'll organise someone else. It's our Good Fit Guarantee.

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 Campbelltown City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ruse Public School.
