I believe that a tutor should understand that students have different ways of the studying that actually help them in their studies, and they should be able to adapt and prepare new ways of teaching that is most valuable to students. A tutor should be motivating but disciplinary to students, to ensure they maintain a good mindset towards their…

I believe one of the most important things in a tutor is a friendly mannerism, as this will make the student feel comfortable and likely more attentive during sessions. Of course a wide range of knowledge in the subject area is also very important to be able to tutor the students. I believe my skills to problem solve would make me a good tutor as…

Encouraging kids and placing them in a healthy and thriving learning environment is just as important as educating them.

This involves not only teaching the…

Tutor should be able to understand the students' mindset as well as the subject knowledge student has before starting the tutorial. Try to make things simple so that students can grasp easily.

My strengths are…

Tutor can guide the student effectively. Tutoring doesn’t mean delivering lecture and completing the curriculum. It is responsible for holistic development of the pupils. Most important a teacher can do is to check the students individual growth and planning for the same. I have more than 4 years of teaching experience. I have taught formally as…

I believe a student's emotional well-being, especially their feelings towards their studies is very important. By addressing what's causing them distress and overwhelming feelings a tutor can greatly improve a student's performance. This is because one's attitude can hugely impact not only the amount of effort one is willing to put in, but also…

The best thing is to guide a student in a direction which is best according his or her capabilities. He/she should be motivated to follow the path in which he /she has upper hand or better grasping power. Tutoring is not just about teaching ......It decides the future of next generations. So a tutor acts as a blueprint for a student's carrer.…

Often times students feel ashamed to ask questions or seek out help. Therefore, creating a space for the student's emotions allows them to approach me with any question or issue that they have without fear or embarrassment is a priority for me. This opens doors to learning new things and even accelerates the education and teaching process. My…

I believe it’s important to empathise with students rather then being sympathetic. Sympathy comes with one feeling a sense of emotion for sometime. Whereas, when in comes to tutoring, we need to empathise with students as it’ll allow us to position ourselves in their circumstances. Therefore, will give as a vision of a reality closer to what a…

Inside St AlbansTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Linh focused on Further Maths by constructing and interpreting scatterplots, including calculating correlation coefficients and regression lines, then moved to time series analysis using three-point median smoothing and data transformations for non-linear trends.

In Year 10, Jason worked through algebraic methods for solving linear equations with brackets and fractions, alongside reviewing how to find the value of x in different contexts.

Meanwhile, Year 4 student Emily practiced long subtraction and addition, solved worded money problems involving coins and notes, and compared numbers during her lesson.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student frequently switched between exam questions, leaving some parts incomplete—her hesitation and fear of running out of time meant the last section was unfinished.

In Year 11, messy or outdated summary books made it difficult to locate key information quickly; as a tutor noted, "it will take a while to find what she's looking for."

A Year 9 student's homework was incomplete during holidays, making content recall harder when returning to school.

Meanwhile, in Vietnamese oral tasks (Year 12), relying on memorized answers led to difficulty adapting when unexpected questions arose.

Confidence sometimes faltered after setbacks, stalling progress.

Recent Achievements

A St Albans tutor noticed a real shift in one Year 12 student's approach to exam prep—after struggling with time management, she now self-corrects her own practice exams and identifies exactly which topics need work, rather than waiting for guidance.

Another high schooler recently began highlighting key information while working through tricky multiple-choice questions; previously she'd just skim the text but now actively slows down to find what matters.

In a Year 4 session, a student who once hesitated during reading tasks is starting to spot and correct his own grammar mistakes as he reads aloud.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you. The tutoring is working quite well at the moment, Paige is understanding more of her maths thanks to Chirags explanations.

I am very happy with my daughters tutor Surya, firstly he is very well manned , he is very good with explaining different methods for Patti to better understand .

All is going well so far with Orson tutoring Rachel. She is enjoying her lessons. Thanks.

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 St Albans Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Catholic Regional College St Albans.
