I think the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to understand their needs, create a custom study plan, and keep them motivated. It's essential to know what each student is good at and what they find challenging. By making a unique study plan that moves at a pace that's right for them, students can learn better without feeling…

I am opinion I reckon the most important is for the student to know their true passion in knowledge. Many of us are forced to be good at something and spend thousands of hours of hard work. Everyone could achieve a reasonably high score if they had spent the effort in it, given they were not demotivated during the process. I believe it is most…

I believe that the most important thing about a tutor is their ability to motivate and encourage a student in their learning journey.

It is…

I think the most important thing to do as a tutor is to amend the teaching style for different students. Motivation was one of the things that I and many of my peers struggled with, and so, the last thing I want is for my student to not be engaged in the content. One way to do this to include connections to the student's interests. In addition,…

The most important thing is ensuring you build confidence in a students understanding of the subject as a whole as it is through this that a student would be able to face any questions that may be posed to them and have confidence within themselves that they are able to understand the topics given throughout their learning. Without this, you would…

Brandon has given Max some helpful tips and he has been patient in his anticipation of Max understanding the concepts they have covered thus far. Max likes Brandon and can relate to him. I know it has only been a couple of weeks but have no doubt the one on one contact is helping at this stage.

Inside ChelseaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Ella focused on working with fractions (adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing) as well as solving equations involving a few extra steps.

Year 10 student Max tackled methods for factorising quadratics and was introduced to logarithms through guided practice problems.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Jack worked on rules for differentiating polynomials and applied these skills to find tangent and normal lines using graphs of derivatives.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student working through non-routine quadratic and function problems often avoided showing full working, especially when identifying which method of factorising quadratics is required for which question—as one tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors." This led to confusion when revisiting solutions.

In Year 8 algebra sessions, messy written work made it difficult to check calculations or spot arithmetic slips.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student regularly forgot to bring key materials for subtraction practice; this meant time was lost setting up before starting any sums.

Recent Achievements

One Chelsea tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to struggle with worded problems now quickly converting scenarios into equations and even drawing diagrams without prompting.

In a recent high school session, a Year 11 student who'd hesitated with polynomial long division was able to perform it smoothly and then independently identify key points of cubics in point of inflection form.

Meanwhile, one younger primary learner, Asha, surprised her tutor by solving addition problems in her head much faster than before—she finished her work quickly and correctly for the first time.

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 Patterson Lakes Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Oakwood School-Oakwood School VCAL Campus.
