Build a personal relationship with them and understand what the student does and doesn't like. Having being tutored myself, I didn't respond as well with someone who could not meet me at my level than I did with a tutor who I felt I could relate to and trust. I am calm and caring, which I think is really important in tutoring, especially when…

Make them enjoy a subject. as a teacher you can only do so much when it comes to teaching. you can give them all the work, call them, and pester them, but if they don't like it they will never excel in it. I am able to connect to the students. I am young and fun and even ride a motorcycles I play guitar and most games kids no play allowing em to…

Facilitate the comprehension of the concepts studied, a tutor is not there to do the homework by himself but rather to show a better way to do it and to provide help in understanding the concepts needed to carry out a homework or while studying for an exam. Very closely tied to this is the building of the student, edifying the student if you…

The most important thing I can do for my students is to help them become self-motivated learners. I am able to answer most of the "what's the point of this" type of questions, as I understand how many of the topics covered in primary and secondary syllabi will become crucial in not only tertiary studies but also in real-life situations. Firstly,…

A tutors time is the most important thing for a student. If a student requires some extra attention due to doubts it is the duty of the tutor to provide him/her with the extra time and support.

No matter which subject the student is learning, s/he needs to know why s/he needs to learn it. Recently, Diane Tavenner, the innovator of American education encourages students to learn whatever they want by asking them to solve problem by themselves. In the field of applied linguistics, we call it 'boost input by producing output'. I believe…

Rather than 'how to answer questions', the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them how to think to solve problems. In a real-world workplace, problem solving is a crucial skill as it creates meaningful solutions to issues. This is why teaching maths should go beyond drilling procedures, formulas and theorems into a…

The best tutors can not only teach but also critique students, guiding them through errors as to elucidate any gaps in their knowledge.

I think the most important thing would be to truly listen to a student, not only to hear him/her, but to actually listen. Indeed, I believe a student will never improve if they don't want to. Thus, I think it is the tutor's duty to make the student interested in the subject, to make it fun and as easy as possible, and that goes through the…

One of the most important things for a tutor to do is to inspire their student and give them the satisfaction of completing a question / essay rather than to write it for them or do it yourself.

The most important thing a tutor can do is to personalise their teaching style for each student. Otherwise you are contributing little the students won't receive from their normal timetabled classes.

Inside St LeonardsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Emily reviewed multi-digit addition and multiplication, then practised comparing and adding fractions using visual models.

Year 7 student Daniel focused on solving algebraic equations with unknowns on both sides, as well as building confidence in long division through step-by-step breakdowns.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Sarah worked through the expansion and factorisation of algebraic expressions and explored index laws, including why any number to the power of zero equals one.

Recent Challenges

In Year 5, a student hesitated to translate diagrams into equations during geometry tasks; as one tutor observed, "processing information when magnitudes of numbers are high" led to confusion in worded problems.

A Year 8 student showed reluctance to write out full algebraic working, which made it hard to spot calculation errors with negative numbers.

In senior years, several students in Years 10–11 missed key steps when factorising or simplifying indices—this sometimes resulted from over-reliance on cosmetic corrections and not responding to previous feedback.

During timed assessments, mistakes converting units (e.g., cm to m) slowed progress and eroded confidence.

Recent Achievements

One St Leonards tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 8 student who used to guess through long division but now confidently uses the "guess and verify" technique—he checks his steps, fixes errors on his own, and only asks for help when really stuck.

A Year 10 student recently began slowing down during algebra tests instead of rushing; this new habit has helped her spot mistakes before submitting work.

In a recent primary session, Caitlin, who previously hesitated with times tables, started reciting unfamiliar ones without prompting and explained how she checked her answers for accuracy.

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 Greenwich Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like International Chinese School.
