I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to encourage the individual to be more confident in their own abilities.

I wish to inspire all my students to critically think and problem solve. Not just to pass their exams or tests, but to apply these skills to their everyday lives.

Being able to relate and convey information effectively to a student is an important skill for tutors to possess. As a student, they already have teachers who supply the material, and parents who remind them to study, but as a tutor, our job is to be a guide, and friend and offer help according to each of their individual needs. Another valuable…

The most important thing a tutor can do is, instead of working through curriculum blindly and wasting time, teaching content that is personalised and caters to the student to improve their weaknesses and boost them academically.

The most important thing is to motivate to them so that they want to learn, instead of thinking that studying is just for the sake of having good results in school.

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.
