A tutor must be well prepared and organised, prepared in not just knowing the material in and out so that they can teach confidently but also being able to provide the necessary material for the student beforehand which can maximise how much the student takes away. So thoughtfully planning the tutoring session beforehand or being familiar with…

Provide the student with confidence in their own learning ability. Helping students find learning methods that work for THEM, which they can continue to use in the future is the most important thing, and also the most satisfying thing for me as tutor. My flexible teaching style means the student quickly feels comfortable and isn't afraid to ask…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be patient and adapt to their learning style. Not everyone learns the same way, with the same words or at the same time. It is of utmost importance to showcase your belief in them and empower them to enjoy what they are studying and not just do it for the sake of school but do it for…

It depends a little bit on age but the older they get the more important confidence is going to be and giving the students confidence is the most important job. I'm not going to teach a 12 year old a lot more, they have spent years in school and they have all the knowledge they need. The important job of tutor is to make them believe that they…

In my opinion, there are three main factors to consider: 1) Solve all the doubts that the student has. 2) Encourage students to continue exploring in depth the topic that is learned. so he can better understand what he is studying only if he can constantly practice. 3) Encourage students to ask, to do research, to challenge themselves in…

The first thing would be to establish a plan of goals and expectations and help the student identify their role in this plan. Once a tutor has an idea of the expectation of the parents/school/ students then only can progress take shape, and this might have many forms and variations as to how this is executed as the student grows or stalls. So,…

I think the most important thing is to encourage a student to be independent and learning how to solve their own problems. So, by not giving them the answers outright but ensuring that they are taught key methods that enable them to solve their own issue is very important especially in the long term. Having patience and attention to explain…

Tutoring is not like formal teaching in the school where we teach concepts, assigns activity, monitor assess student’s academic learning.

A tutor must be invested in a student's learning in order for the teaching and tutoring to be effective and positive for the student's experience. A tutor can approach learning often in different ways that are addressed in the classroom, meaning the student may find a learning style or approach that suits them better and one that they can apply…

I think that it's really important to be a good listener so that you can use feedback from students to improve your teaching. Not everyone learns in the same way so it's really important to work with each student to find the learning tehniques that work best for them. It's also important to recognise that each student could prefer different…

We are more than happy with the service we received, our tutor went above and beyond and I was very pleased with her commitment and effort with my child.

Inside WaterfordTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Jessica worked on drawing and interpreting stem-and-leaf plots, focusing on mean, median, and range, then tackled school homework about histograms and frequency density.

In Year 9, Ahmed revised Pythagorean theorem applications and solved problems involving equivalent, mixed, and improper fractions using practice word problems.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ruby covered index laws for simplifying expressions and practised expanding as well as factorising algebraic expressions in preparation for an upcoming test.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student's science responses often lacked clarity because "she knew what she needed to say, but actually writing it down seemed to be a little tougher."

In Year 10 algebra, another student skipped showing working in fraction questions and tried to solve them mentally, leading to repeated errors—writing each step helped spot mistakes.

Meanwhile, a senior chemistry learner struggled to recall key definitions (like acid-base reactions) unless they were re-explained, which slowed lesson progress.

Across grades, confusion with negative numbers or graph axes sometimes traced back to unclear written work or forgetting foundational steps.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Waterford noticed one Year 11 student who used to hesitate with index laws and interest problems now working through complex questions independently, even spotting her own errors before asking for help.

In a recent Year 8 session, a student who struggled with stem-and-leaf plots last term breezed through new data sets this week and drew number lines on graphs without confusion—a big shift from needing step-by-step guidance previously.

Meanwhile, a younger student surprised her tutor by spelling four out of five tricky words correctly during their review, after missing most of them just two lessons ago.

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 Manning Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Canning College.
