The most important thing a tutor should do is instil confidence in their students. For a student to gain confidence in their academic ability, a sound understanding of fundamental concepts, and ability to problem solve is crucial. Therefore, I have a strong emphasis on developing problem solving strategies and these core concepts relevant for each…

I believe the two most important things a tutor can do for a student are to aid them in the learning gaps they may have and to help them in building a positive relationship with academics. It is common that if students may have a negative relationship with subjects they are not very confident in. Building confidence in these subjects is one of the…

Listening to their needs and their struggles is vital to finding a way for them to enjoy school and the subject. You need to be able to push the student but in a way that helps them to achieve something they're proud of. Pushing them for results is usually only going to increase their frustration and dislike for school/learning. Tutors are in a…

A tutor , according to me should be available to the student at all times. They have to respond to the student's enquiries without much lag. Additionally, teachers have to be truly dedicated especially in terms of correction of homework and assignments.

A tutor, first and foremost, must ensure that a student is improving their grades, that is why people look for tutors in the first place. However, as well as this, a really good tutor can instil a genuine love of a given subject. This will also greatly assist in improving the student's performance. Thus the most important thing a tutor can do is…

Tutors are useful in the way that if a student didn’t understand how something was explained in class, we can offer different and more in depth explanations to help them achieve this understanding. Ensuring a student feels comfortable enough to ask questions is the most important thing a tutor can do in my opinion. That I am supportive, positive…

Inside WestonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 Sam focused on converting fractions and decimals to percentages, and practiced addition and subtraction of fractions with like denominators.

Year 9 Sami worked through factorising by grouping and calculated the volume of prisms and cylinders using formulae.

For Year 10 Tiana, lessons addressed solving simultaneous equations by elimination as well as finding the area of circles and parallelograms, using diagrams for visual support where needed.

Recent Challenges

During recent lessons, a Year 9 student relied on a calculator for basic multiplication and squared numbers, slowing progress in more complex test questions; as noted, "requires calculator for simple multiplying (x 3 etc.)."

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student preparing assessment pieces faced procrastination challenges—study planners were suggested to manage multiple upcoming exams but deadlines still crept up.

In Year 7 English, missing or incomplete homework drafts led to last-minute writing sessions instead of refining arguments. These patterns meant valuable time was lost on foundational tasks rather than building confidence with higher-level skills before major assessments.

Recent Achievements

A Weston tutor noticed a big shift in Sami, a high schooler who previously felt stuck at a C but now independently creates extra maths questions to challenge himself and recently beat his goal with a 71% on his exam.

Another student, Rory, started the term hesitant to draft essays but now writes productively for nearly an hour straight and received positive feedback from his English teacher about a well-prepared presentation.

Meanwhile, Samuel in primary school moved from struggling with perimeter problems to mastering both area and perimeter calculations, finishing all four skill levels with just minimal guidance.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you. The tutoring is working quite well at the moment, Paige is understanding more of her maths thanks to Chirags explanations.

I am very happy with my daughters tutor Surya, firstly he is very well manned , he is very good with explaining different methods for Patti to better understand .

All is going well so far with Orson tutoring Rachel. She is enjoying her lessons. Thanks.

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 Woden Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Jude's Primary School.
