The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them reach their full potential. I believe that each student has an individual learning style, and a tutor's role is to understand their students and tailor tutoring sessions around this idea to help their comprehension of a particular topic and make learning a more exciting…

One of the most important things that a tutor can do for students is help them find what they are learning is full of fun. Interest is the best teacher. When students like a subject, they are more willing to put in more time to practice and learn about it. As a tutor, there is only a very limited hours that I can accompany my student. Therefore,…

I think the most important thing tutors can do for students is being able to adapt to different students needs. I believe I hold these skills. I understand that different students learn in different ways, and have experience in fostering environments which cater to all styles of learning. Knowledge: As someone who has a passion for learning, I…

Teach them how to think independently, and provide them with a way of thinking efficiently. Math is not a discipline in which someone does enough problems and can solve all the problems, but a discipline that requires people to constantly think about questions. So if one only knows to let students do lots of problems then he might not be a good…

I believe that a tutor shouldn't be perceived as a strictly authoritative figure - keeping the student engaged and building a strong relationship is a vital component in the effectiveness of the tutoring. Students - myself included - gain much more knowledge when lessons are more flexible. It usually takes me a few sessions to understand a…

I think the most important thing is to inspire students to learn more and improve in their own respective ways, as it is crucial that we teach them methods of how to learn instead of just force-feeding knowledge. Tutors should teach strategies that are easily implementable for a variety of situations so that students can confidently adapt their…

Inside HigginsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Olivia explored linear inequalities and straight line graphing, then practised finding midpoints and distances between points on the Cartesian plane.

For Year 11, Ethan focused on differentiation of exponential functions and revisited natural logarithms through worksheet questions.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Anise strengthened her skills with chain rule applications for differentiating compound functions, including tackling extension problems involving more complex algebraic manipulation.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often hesitated to ask for help, both in tutoring and class—this quiet avoidance left gaps in understanding during geometry tasks. "He rarely voiced confusion about triangle orientation," a tutor noted, so errors lingered.

In Year 11, incomplete homework was an issue: one week, missed assignments meant less time for review of formula application, stalling progress with complex problems.

Another senior student showed reluctance to write out working in algebra, preferring mental calculation; this hid mistakes and made it hard to catch sign errors.

Confidence dips after setbacks sometimes led to avoidance rather than targeted revision.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Higgins noticed a real shift for Jensen, a high schooler who used to hesitate but now arrives with his own questions and openly asks for help—something he never did at first.

In another recent session, Callan moved beyond just following steps; he started writing his own test cheat sheet and applying index laws independently after struggling to remember them last term.

Meanwhile, Molly (Year 5) quietly surprised her tutor by finishing all her maths homework on her own during the lesson, instead of needing reminders or step-by-step prompts as before.

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 Kippax Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kingsford Smith School.
