The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be compassionate and assess their situation and help them navigate through the problems they are facing. Secondly, I'd say is to impart knowledge to the student as this is his/her base and thus it needs to be strengthened and help them realize their dreams and guide them to it. One of my…

The most important thing is to develop the students confidence and give them the ability to take on problems on their own later down the track. I feel that this is the main key to success as without this ability the student will give up half way. Empowerment and showing them that it isn't as hard as what they think is crucial. I am a very patient…

As a tutor, I believe it's essential to do more than just give answers to students. A tutor can be like a mentor, guiding students to think through problems on their own. Besides teaching problem-solving skills, a tutor can also offer encouragement, like giving a small high-five or praising their efforts. This support helps students feel valued…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is creating lesson plans and methods based around that student.

Firstly, a tutor can give guiding questions instead of displaying the answers straightaway. This way, the students can be prompted to think of a way to get to the solution.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to teach the student to enjoy learning, and impart a good studying method. After all, even the best tutor cannot help an unmotivated student, and a lack of self-motivation is the biggest obstacle that many underperforming students fail to overcome. I am good at following the student's pace.…

Local Reviews

I switched to online-tutoring subsequent to my school's closure. At first, I truly didn't believe it could substitute for my regular in-person tutoring. After 3 weeks of online-tutoring, I am genuinely considering making the switch permanent! The virtual classroom is super quick to get the hang of and is overall really simple to use. I love the fact that the tutoring session can take place from practically anywhere (with WiFi); from my desk at home, from the library or even from my grandparents' house. Most importantly, the learning experience is essentially the same, or perhaps even better than in-person tutoring! I find online-tutoring to be highly engaging and interactive, leaving no room for distractions. Overall, very satisfied!

Inside UrrbraeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Emma focused on indices and scientific notation, including reviewing her recent indices test and practicing calculator skills for complex calculations.

For Year 10, James tackled trigonometry concepts such as sine, cosine, and tangent, as well as worked through balancing chemical equations in chemistry using step-by-step examples.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Olivia reviewed key macroeconomics content—covering the definition of an efficient market and exploring producer/consumer surplus and externalities—with practical application to current assignment questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 Chemistry student hesitated when converting between units and struggled to link molar enthalpy with heat of reaction; as one tutor put it, "she needed extra time moving between formats."

In Year 10 Economics, an assignment was nearly forgotten—organization around deadlines remains a challenge.

For a Year 8 Maths student, confusion arose with mixed integers in addition and subtraction until quick reminders helped clarify the steps.

Meanwhile, another senior student avoided outlining responses until prompted, which led to stronger answers but showed that planning written work is still developing.

Missed or incomplete homework also appeared in several lessons.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Urrbrae recently noticed a Year 10 student who had struggled with trigonometry start to apply sine and cosine rules independently to solve area problems, even after initially hesitating with application questions.

Meanwhile, a senior economics student showed real initiative by revising her assignment after teacher feedback—editing her work and successfully drafting a new introduction on her own, rather than waiting for step-by-step guidance.

In Year 7 maths, one student began openly asking about homework doubts instead of quietly skipping tricky problems; last session, he attempted all the complex questions set by the tutor without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

She has been SUPER professional. I would recommend her without hesitation. She is responsible, has made a connection with my son, has communicated with me and kept me informed all the time. She is a great asset. We look forward to working with her in the future.

I am so happy for the tutor you sent us he was a lovely young man and my son related to him very well.

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 Fullarton Park Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Urrbrae Agricultural High School.
