The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to improve the student's attitude towards the subject. If a student is having struggles with certain subject, they may have a negative view on it which limits their openness and ability to learn. As a tutor, we should not just provide information to students but make sure they understand the…

Building the trust between the tutor and the student is what I believe it is most important. I felt that if I didn't build the trust with my students, then no matter how much I try, they will not improve. Therefore, building trust - looking confident and knowing what I am doing. My strength is making sure the students understand the concepts.…

A tutor should realize that once upon a time, they themselves were a student who must have struggled with certain subjects and also fared well in certain other subjects. And they should realize from their own experience how much of a difference can a good teacher bring into the lives of students. A good tutor will leverage their own experience as…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student go beyond just teaching content. A tutor should help a child feel capable--- when students believe in themselves, everything else becomes easier. It's important to break concepts down simply, meet students where they are, and help them move forward step by step without overwhelm.…

Inspire a genuine passion for the subject, rather than just learning for the sake of school. When students find enjoyment and appreciation in what they're studying, learning becomes easier, and this mindset will benefit them with anything they need to learn in the future.

For me, the most important thing a tutor can do is help the student feel more confident — not just with the subject, but in themselves.

Motivating them is probably the most important, as students can be brilliant but fall behind quickly if they do not have the drive to improve. I think that a tutor also needs to have multiple different ways of approaching a question as a student might not be able to grasp a particular one. Furthermore, I believe that generically working through…

Local Reviews

The whole process of finding a tutor has been so simple, all I had to do was make the initial enquiry. We had our tutor within 24hours! Freddy is so lovely and while it is early days we can see the confidence growing in our son. We highly recommend this service...in fact I already have :)

Inside StanmoreTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 Avi worked on trigonometry, focusing on sine, cosine, and tangent rules with targeted practice questions, as well as reviewing surds for clarity.

Year 10 Luke reviewed past exam papers to address topics he found challenging and discussed areas of confusion across the syllabus in detail.

In Year 11, Avi practiced monic and non-monic quadratic factorisation and revisited line equations by working through sample test problems.

Recent Challenges

For a Year 8 student, missing school and tutorial homework led to gaps in understanding algebra and number patterns—"she wasn't understanding the content from school and there was missing school homework I noticed."

In Chemistry (Year 11), failing to memorise polyatomic ions meant techniques shown previously were not recognised in later exam questions, making revision less effective.

A Year 9 student's over-complicated diagram annotations in Science resulted in missed marks for terminology and logical structure.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner struggled with two-digit multiplication because times tables weren't automatic; this slowed progress on new skills.

Recent Achievements

A Stanmore tutor noticed one high school student who had previously hesitated to ask questions now actively seeking clarification during economics essay planning, leading him to correctly use diagrams in new scenarios without prompting.

Another student, after initially struggling with structuring written responses, has begun writing PEEL paragraphs independently and completed several on his own with improved clarity.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 learner who once guessed at answers now takes time to double-check her calculations for area and volume before responding—she even asked for more challenging shapes last session.

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