Instead of teaching in a standard linear fashion, I prefer to let the pupil choose what they would like to practice and I will explain the concept while showing how the idea can be applied and adjusted. I also believe worded problems are a strong point that should be focused on as they test the knowledge of the student and how the student can…

Helping a student understand their content and what they're struggling with and helping them through that content making sure that it becomes a non issue. I believe tutors are there to aid students in gaining a better understanding of their content and properly engaging with that content, and not just about cramming the school syllabus in a few…

I believe that all providers of education should not only prepare a student for an exam, but to open the student's eyes to the wider world, where they can explore their passions. In this way, I consider confidence an important aspect that a tutor can provide to a student. School can sometimes feel so impossible, when sitting in a large classroom…

Some of the most important things are to help build confidence in your student - it can often be challenging to do well if you don't have that confidence. A tutor can also provide useful advice and feedback as to the flaws of a student in a particular subject to help them work on it. A tutor also gives an additional and refreshing insight into a…

I think the support a tutor should have for their student should not only be academic in nature– but rather, I believe the student's leadership qualities and extracurricular potential should be a focus for any tutor. I believe my speaking to my students on how to live healthy, balanced lives can support them in becoming multi-talented students…

The three most crucial things a tutor can do for a student are academic supervision, human connection, and consistency. By combining these three things, a young learner may be able to completely redesign a class, subject, or school as a whole. I have a lot of energy, and patience is one of my best qualities. When I tutor, I strongly rely on these…

I think the most important thing for a tutor is to always have faith in the student despite witnessing constant failures and lack of improvement. I think it's really important to be able to empathise and simply be with the student during these difficult moments, whilst letting them know they have the potential to improve and succeed over any…

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

Austin is a positive, helpful young man who was very polite and knew his stuff. I would highly recommend him.

Tutoring is going well and Nick and Charlie are a great match! Nick has already made a great connection with Charlie.

Minh aka Truc has been fabulous in the short amount of time I have worked with her. She really has given me the confidence I needed to have a better mindset going in to an exam. From the start she was approachable and understanding. I never felt like I was being judged, she was able to answer all my questions with an explanation on how she got the answer.

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.
