A tutor should not just solve a question for a student, rather they need to supply the foundations and processes that allow a question to be broken down and solved easily. A tutor should also be able to connect to students, rather than having a purely academic relationship, the students need to feel comfortable they can ask questions and also…

The most important thing a tutor can do is provide a safe open learning environment where the student is actually comfortable to ask questions. I remember sometimes with bad teachers I would be hesitant to ask questions because I was embarrassed that I didn’t know said thing. I want to instil confidence in my students so they are able to ask…

I think there are two main things a tutor can do for a student; maintain high grades and garner a positive attitude. It is imperative as a tutor's job to help the student maintain or achieve high grades in the particular area of study. However, high academic standards are not simply enough. It is also important for a tutor to build up an…

I believe that the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to allow the student to feel free to ask questions and to query explanations. This way, it allows for me to answer their initial query as well as giving me the opportunity to proactively infer other areas that they may not completely understand. My strengths are centred…

Inside Surrey HillsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We believe if it wasn't for Stuart; Paige would not have achieved her most recent result.

We are so happy with Dylan, he has really helped Brayden so much in the short time he has been coming to visit us and Brayden is certainly engaging well with him and as Dylan has stated in his report Brayden has been able to take what he has learnt from Dylan with him into his classroom and is now helping his friends which is great for his self confidence. Very happy overall.

Shruti is an amazing friend and a tutor. She loves to work with you and always has a smile on her face. She will always help you achieve your academic goals and will not leave your side no matter what.
