The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, is to explain concepts, theories and course content in an easy to understand, and easy to recall way. So that the student can gain an understanding of the content, and the knowledge will be retained for future studies. I think the main reasons that people came to me for help in school was…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them recognise the improvements and progress they are making. From a psychological perspective intrinsic motivation is important but extrinsic validation is equally so in a learning environment. When small improvements are pointed out and celebrated it is not only a mindset shift but…

The most important thing as a tutor is to be there for your student, not only academically but mentally and emotionally as well. I want my students to feel like they can ask me for advice on subjects that may not pertain to their education, but I want them to also feel like they can come to me for help when it comes to their academics as well.…

Make them feel confident and comfortable to at least ask questions when they don’t understand something. I feel that quite often when we don’t understand something in school we stay quiet and don’t say anything and assume we will just be able ti figure it out on our own but usually that doesn’t work. Having the confidence to ask questions…

The most important thing a tutor can teach their student is to be able to sucessfully tackle a subject by themselves. I believe this is achieved by providing the student with a strong base on the subject and adapting them to gradually think independently.

A tutor needs to be able to properly communicate with their student and teach them to solve hard problems instead of solving it for them. Furthermore, I believe that a tutor needs to have empathy for the student as some topics can be hard to understand and require patience to fully grasp.

While having a strong foundational knowledge of the subjects is important, I believe communication skills, patience and a drive to learn is what makes a good tutor. As a tutor, you have to have an abundance of patience because you are trying to assist with a concept they have previously struggled with, and hence may have convinced themselves they…

The actual academics itself, while being at the core of the tutoring, is not the most valuable aspect.

Inside Tanah MerahTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Xavier focused on simplifying algebraic expressions and practiced key fraction skills, including addition and subtraction with mixed numbers.

For Year 10, Zara revised index laws and factorisation by working through her previous quiz results and extra targeted questions.

In Year 11 Maths Methods, Lachlan prepared for an upcoming assessment by reviewing statistics concepts such as mean, median, mode, and range using sample assignment exercises.

Recent Challenges

Several process-related habits emerged across different year levels.

A Year 9 student did not complete assigned homework or begin their maths assignment, with notes stating, "needs to prioritize his maths assignment more, because he has not made any attempts to the assignment yet."

In Year 7 algebra sessions, a reluctance to show working steps led to repeated sign errors—"he's very good at solving questions but we're working on making sure he shows all the steps."

For a Year 11 statistics task, incomplete communication with the teacher meant key concepts like Measures of Spread were left unclear and unaddressed before deadlines.

Recent Achievements

One Tanah Merah tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with algebra now finishing equations more efficiently and explaining her reasoning out loud, which marks a real shift from just guessing.

In Year 7, another student who previously rushed through problem-solving is now showing each step of his working and talking through the process—he even asked for harder questions after acing a quiz on percentages.

Meanwhile, in primary, two students went from waiting for hints to wanting to complete maths sums independently before asking the tutor to check their work.

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 Logan Hyperdome Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Loganholme State School.
