Being patient and understand things at the student's level. Breaking problems into smaller chunks for them to digest it better. It is also essential for tutors to go through foundational subject matters so that their comprehension is deepened before moving on to more complext matters. My patience in listening to them and understanding what they do…

Teaching a student on how to learn on their own in such a way that they will not need a tutor in their future academic pursuits. The confidence that the students can learn on their own may act as a kick-starter to pursue their own dreams, and if the students were to succeed achieving their dream, I will be glad that I played a small part in…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to show them why something is the case, rather than asking them to memorise something for the sake of it. For example, if they struggled understanding the topic of completing the square, I could show them the geometric interpretation of the formula in order to demonstrate the…

I believe that the most crucial role of a tutor is to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the concepts, rather than merely focusing on completing the syllabus. It is essential for a tutor to be willing to revisit and clarify concepts as many times as necessary to ensure that the student fully grasps the material. This approach prioritises the…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to use different methods of teaching to communicate the content, so the student can learn in a number of ways. Everyone learns differently, so when you meet a student for the first time, you should experiment with different teaching styles (explaining the content, using examples, scenarios,…

I aim to instil students with effective learning strategies. People aren’t taught how to effectively learn and study, and often they can feel lost. I firmly believe that understanding the best learning approach for oneself is just as important as understanding the schoolwork. I pride myself on being patient - I understand that everyone learns…

Personally, I consider a tutor's consistent motivation and encouragement to be the most important thing that can be done for a student. Of course, teaching students their material is a priority - but to keep them engaged and focused on their end goals, a tutor must always motivate and encourage their student through all the ups and downs. I like…

Encouragement is the most important quality a tutor should have. Doubt is unfortunately a huge negative factor when trying to learn so when a tutor shows a true belief to a student, confidence sparks & can fuel motivation. I believe a tutor is meant to empower their student to success By personal experience, I’ve had both, a tutors who just…

Every student is different and every student has different ways of understanding concepts. Some might learn them easily via a practical approach while others focus on the theory first.

Be a good friend with the student first. Teach him as if he his friend is teaching him. Be strict at a times when he is not listening but its good for him so its ok to be strict sometimes.

The most crucial things a tutor can do for a student are academic supervision, human connection, and consistency, and the combination of these can possibly redefine a class, subject, or school more generally for a learner. A high level of energy and patience are two of my strongest assets. I strongly rely on these traits when I'm tutoring. My…

A tutor should firstly be encouraging; to be more confident in their studies, for them to work hard and try their best, and to inspire a love of learning. Secondly, it is imperative to be understanding. Every student is unique, with varying goals, learning styles, and abilities, so learning should be tailored to each individual to ensure every…

Inside AlkimosTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emily practised telling the time on both analogue and digital clock faces and worked through division word problems to build her problem-solving skills.

In Year 7, Liam focused on combining like terms in algebra and used number lines to understand operating with fractions.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Ava tackled linear equations alongside ratios, using practice quizzes and step-by-step examples to reinforce each method.

Recent Challenges

In Year 7 mathematics, one student preferred to solve problems mentally rather than writing steps out, which made it harder to spot errors—"sometimes Aidan does all his working in his head."

In a Year 10 algebra lesson, forgetting to include negative signs led to repeated corrections before reaching the right answer.

Across several primary sessions, missed or misplaced homework slowed progress; for example, "Izzy had lost her whiteboard homework."

During a Year 9 English task, hesitation over editing choices resulted in unnecessary changes and reduced clarity.

Skipping opening goal-setting meant less focus during some lessons, leading to restlessness and slower work.

Recent Achievements

One Alkimos tutor noted Seth's shift to confidently speaking up and asking questions when unsure—he now leaves mistakes visible in his work so he can track growth over time.

Caitlin, a high school student, recently tackled algebra homework she'd found confusing the week before; this session, she explained her working independently and combined like terms with little prompting.

In another win for older students, Dina has begun editing her own writing drafts after struggling to make revisions in past sessions; last lesson, she added her own ending to a story and corrected errors without help.

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 Clarkson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St James' Anglican School.
