Understanding the student by listening carefully to them is important so you know the best way to help them with any problems. Having faith and trust in a student is also very important and enables them to build self confidence and trust within themselves and their ability to solve problems. Tutors must also tailor their teaching style to suit how…

A tutor should help lead a student to get the deepest understanding of what they are learning, gain confidence, and then tailor their approach to how that individual learns. Tutors thereby ensure that the student understands concepts properly, promotes active learning and facilitates sustained academic well-being. I can simplify complicated topics…

As a tutor the most we can do for is a student is to encourage them to not just learn what's in the book but also to understand the concepts with a greater depth. The other thing that tutor can do for a student to maximise their educational growth is to try and make them understand the points where they are wrong and not just to do their work for…

A tutor should take their time with a student and make sure the student understands before moving on. I believe the purpose of tutoring should be to provide learning strategies that are specific to the individual in contrast with teaching in a classroom (at the pace of the class). A tutor should provide multiple strategies for learning. For…

The most important thing that a tutor can do is to pivot their teaching style in order to suit not only the content but how the student learns. Without this ability to change as necessary you are putting your students at a significant disadvantage. Breaking down complex concepts into simple ideas. Creating a comfortable learning environment where…

The most vital thing a tutor can do is to make study fun , yes, a student who just remained worried about studies and exams should no longer be worried if he or she has a tutor .

Tutors needs to deliver their fullest in educating the student. They need to have the patience to redirect from the main concept in focus to teach the fundamentals which the student lacks the knowledge.

It would have to be that a tutor can teach a student a one on one lesson and help him improve his understanding about different ways to approach a maths or english problem which will in turn help the student extremely in the future.

Tutors should work on building skills like time management, organization and focus as much as at the curriculum to create confident and independent learners.

I assert that successful tutors are able to build strong relationships with their students as it personalizes learning. Another thing is to teach to the student's strengths and minimizes the students weaknesses. Every student and their way of learning is different, so, as a tutor, one should be flexible according to the needs of the perplexed…

Local Reviews

Cathy, Modbury North

Inside Modbury HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Jasmine revised simplifying fractions and placing them accurately on number lines, then worked on converting between fractions and decimals.

Year 7 Sarah focused on multiplication with decimals by factors of ten and practiced converting units of measurement for length, weight, and volume.

Meanwhile, Year 10 Adam tackled exam-style questions covering homeostasis in biology as well as human evolution concepts, using past papers for targeted revision.

Recent Challenges

Several students across primary and high school years left homework incomplete, particularly in spelling revision (noted for a Year 4 student: "spelling will now be incorporated into both Thursday and Wednesday lessons" after repeated missed practice).

In Year 11 Biology, exam revision relied heavily on previous test papers but feedback was not always revisited—one note highlighted, "Mini-assignment set to go through in the next lesson," yet earlier corrections remained unaddressed.

A Year 7 student struggled with messy written calculations during BODMAS exercises, making it difficult to check work or spot errors quickly. This slowed progress and increased frustration before tests.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Modbury Heights noticed a Year 10 student who used to freeze on multi-step biology questions now independently works through past exam papers, only checking answers at the end instead of asking for hints throughout.

In Year 8 maths, one student who'd previously rushed and made errors when converting between units now double-checks their work and explains each step aloud before moving on.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 child who was hesitant to read out loud has started choosing new storybooks themselves during sessions and reads entire pages without prompting from the tutor.

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 City of Tea Tree Gully Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like The Heights School.
