Listen! The most important thing a tutor should do for a student is to just take a step back and listen to the questions/concerns of their students. This is the first step that any tutor should take before starting a class or planning out a lesson. Even something simple as asking the student how their day at school went can be crucial in…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is not only explain an answer to a student, but actually make sure that they understand how the answer is derived and can do it themselves. There is no point in rote learning something when you can understand how an answer comes to be. As Albert Einstein said, 'Education is not the learning of…

Listen, I believe as a tutor the most important thing to do is listen to what the student has to say, whether it is problems, curiosities, or more.

Different students have different ways of learning as well as ways they feel comfortable…

From the perspective of a past student who's worked with tutors. I've found the best environment to learn is one that feels inviting and open to questions. I hope I can build such an environment where students do not feel worried about asking questions or use me as a resource to aid their learning. Furthermore, I think it's paramount that a tutor…

One of the most important things a tutor can do is be patient and supportive. Different people learn different things in different ways, and at different rates. A tutor must cater for that, and not skip over important things that students have not yet understood. A tutor must use the method of explaining/teaching that students will understand. I…

Allowing students to become independent thinkers and restorning their self confidence is one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student.

Local Reviews

They have been amazing! They paired my young daughter with a great tutor who has already built her skills and confidence. For the first time my daughter loves doing math with her tutor! By having the sessions in my house has also really helped them build a positive relationship and means I don't need to be rushing around after school. It's early days, but I'm positive this was the best decision we could've made for our daughter.

Inside WarranwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Alex focused on adding and multiplying fractions with different denominators, and also practised converting fractions to decimals.

For Year 9, Sam reviewed how to convert between fractions, percentages, and decimals in simplest form, along with simplifying expressions using the distributive law and writing numbers in scientific notation.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Emily worked through simplifying surds and rationalising denominators, using step-by-step examples for each calculation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 mathematics, one student tended to copy worked examples rather than attempt problems independently; as noted, "needs to try working independently and thinking actively instead of just waiting and copying the solutions." This habit limited true understanding during algebra tasks.

A Year 10 student struggled with organization, often bringing large volumes of notes but rarely referencing them efficiently in SAC preparation—leaving key information unused during practice.

For a Year 11 methods lesson, an over-reliance on calculators meant steps in simultaneous equations were skipped; errors went unnoticed until review.

In a Year 4 arithmetic session, messy written work made it hard to follow fraction calculations.

Recent Achievements

One Warranwood tutor noticed a real shift in a Year 9 student who, after struggling to connect formulas to worded measurement problems, now reliably selects the right units and strategies without prompting.

In a senior session, Alex independently recognised mistakes from past tests and used those insights to solve new exam questions—something she hadn't done before when she'd freeze on unfamiliar problems. This independent error recognition marks a major breakthrough.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student recently surprised her tutor by asking specific questions about homework rather than waiting for help, showing new initiative during sessions.

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 Croydon Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Warranwood Primary School.
