I believe a tutor can prepare interactive lectures, so that students can participate in the lectures. That technique is very helpful to get the maximum attention of the students. Moreover, a tutor can provide real life example of the topics so that students can easily relate the study contents with the real world. I can easily get synchronized…

A few of the most important things that a tutor can do for a student are: - provide accurate information of the subject being taught, - encouraging students, - behave appropriately, - listen to their problems.

I consider patience to be the most important virtue in a tutor, setting small checkpoints between certain topics is a good strategy. A tutor should always pause and ask if the student has any questions or doubts about the concept. A tutor should make the student feel comfortable around them and they should not hesitate to ask any questions - no…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to teach them to be self reliant when learning. When students learn to try solving answers for themselves with the proper guidance, they can understand the concepts they are struggling with in an easier manner. I believe my strength as a tutor lies in being able to adjust my teaching…

I am of the opinion that the most important things for tutors to do is to be patient and make the student feel comfortable. It is perfectly normal not to understand or struggle with ideas that are taught in class immediately and students should feel as though they aren't getting judged because of it. Tutors are their to help and improve their…

In my opinion, the most important thing a tutor can do for students is to be a very good role model for them so that they can be inspired by me and also try their best to be like me. Moreover, a tutor should be able to gauge the student's strenghts and weaknesses and be patient with them. So a tutor can reinforce the strenghts of students and help…

Being emphatic. I might be biased here, but it's only through empathy that you can help someone understand what you do understand.

I am patient and calm, there is no reason to…

Inside UltimoTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Yash explored area and perimeter of triangles, along with multiplying and adding decimals and large numbers, finishing up with some long division for fluency.

In Year 10, Michelle focused on applying the perfect squares method to solve parabolas and used the discriminant to analyse tangent and secant scenarios.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ben worked through conditional probability problems using Venn diagrams and tackled non-linear relationships in algebraic contexts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student did not complete the assigned homework, which limited her confidence when facing new equation types—"she needed more practice to feel ready with the answers."

In Year 9, a student became stuck on lengthy worded problems, especially when unfamiliar vocabulary appeared; this slowed progress even if those words were not essential.

For a Year 4 learner, confusion between letters like 'b' and 'd' meant she relied heavily on an adult's help to get through reading tasks.

During algebra in Year 8, "he skipped steps while solving," causing hidden errors that required extra correction time mid-session.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Ultimo recently saw a Year 11 student who'd struggled with financial maths revisit her old exam errors—this time, she could solve those tricky problems independently after targeted practice.

A Year 9 student, who used to hesitate when stuck, now openly asks the tutor to repeat explanations if something's unclear and even volunteered to try extra word problems on her own.

In a primary session, one young learner began reading short passages aloud smoothly for the first time once promised regular breaks; before, she'd quietly avoid reading out loud at all.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

The tutoring is going really well with Jacob. Both Thomasine and Luke are really happy with him. They say he is really good and gives loads of examples. High praise indeed. Jonathan and I are delighted as well. We find him always on time, if not early, so far and he is very polite and easy to talk with. So thank you very much.

All good! Boys very happy with Josh. He has certainly helped their confidence and that is the start to better marks.

Yes Daisy is a good tutor and seems to work great with the younger children.  I was very happy with her for David.

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