The most important thing a tutor should do for a student is make them feel good about themselves. If the student develops a mentality where they feel as if they will never be able to learn something, they wont. It will be my job as a tutor to encourage them to believe in their own capabilities and further expand on this with different teaching…

Help him get to ease with the course, make it not feel like a burden but something the pupil has control over, allow him to see his strengths and focus on the knowledge he is gaining from it, and how he can benefit from it. Algebra is useful in so many fields but kids don't understand that thus don't pay attention, and learn it just to forget…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is harness empathy, patience, and and understand the needs of that student. The curriculum may be straightforward but every individual have their own way of absorbing information and learning. It is important to keep the student engaged in the lesson and a tutor must also have the…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to personalise the learning to suit the student's strengths, to work on their weaknesses but highlight strong points to instil confidence. A tutor must treat the student as an individual and listen carefully rather than just applying the same format for each student. Through a combination…

First and foremost, a tutor should be able to connect with students on a personal level. The tutor should facilitate students to seek knowledge for themselves. The tutor should establish new ways to help students learn how to do work independently. I possess excellent organizational and communication skills. I also have good subject knowledge and…

I consider the most important that a tutor can do is able to do is simply a topic or break down said topic into digestible portions such that the student is able to catch onto the content of the work easily and effectively. With a good understanding of the topic and the skills to explain its contents to the student, the tutor ensures that the…

The most important things a tutor can do is to listen to their student. Whether they need to adjust their techniques, or go more slowly, etc. The tutor should always be attendant to their student's needs and keep track of their progress. Positive reinforcement is also very important, as uplifting and encouraging your student is more beneficial…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to become their friend. Children are sometimes uncomfortable with teachers and are unable to fully explain where they struggle. However, if we are able to get them to open up we would be able to better assist them in improving their grades. A student who is comfortable in the…

Most importantly a tutor should understand the goals and needs of each student individually - what they find difficult and why they struggle with certain concepts. Subsequently, tutors should teach students the concepts and ensure they understand how to solve problems, this provides lifelong problem solving skills rather than memorised methods to…

Inside St MarysTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ella worked on addition and subtraction with trading as well as two-digit multiplication.

For Year 10, Daniel tackled trigonometry topics including Pythagoras's theorem and using trigonometric ratios to find unknown sides in right-angled triangles, practicing with step-by-step diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sarah focused on financial mathematics—specifically simple and compound interest calculations—and reviewed loan repayments within real-life problem scenarios.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student, as noted, "is far behind and not ready for the exam," with time management flagged as a key issue—missed homework and last-minute preparation have left her unable to attempt full past papers in one sitting.

In Year 8 Mathematics, a student avoided copying rules into her exercise book, leading to gaps when trying to apply formulas for geometry.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student struggled with reading clocks and would frequently forget to bring completed worksheets, making it difficult to track progress across weeks. The missed lessons added further inconsistency in building foundational skills.

Recent Achievements

One St Marys tutoring session saw a Year 11 student quickly identify and correct her own mistake in statistics, something she hesitated to do before.

In a Year 9 maths lesson, after several weeks of guided practice, the student began solving trigonometry problems independently instead of waiting for prompts.

A younger primary learner who used to avoid homework started bringing her textbook each week and now completes tasks without reminders. The last session ended with her finishing all assigned questions by herself for the first time.

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 Marys Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Marys Public School.
