I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to ultimately listen to the student's need, academically and also personally. I believe being available to the students is also super important as it helps them to think that they're not alone in this high school journey as us the tutors have gone through it and can share our experiences and…

Enriching a students' knowledge of a topic and allowing that increased knowledge to shine through their academic prowess within their schooling efforts.

Actually engage and interact with the student to find where, and more importantly why they're struggling or need help. This not only is a short term solution to a single question which may be raised, but is extremely helpful in the long run as their problem solving skills and overall performance improves. Also, make sure the student actually…

A tutor must provide educational support for students. Tutors must have a professional yet casual relationship themselves and the student. This way, students can easily approach you better and feel more comfortable around you. If you are too strict, then the student may feel like they are back in school or feel unsafe around you. Tutors must also…

I believe tutors need to understand their students, given that not all individuals hold the same skills or pace of learning and as such, need to be taken into consideration or have the lesson plans catered to their needs. Tutors must, nonetheless, put in large amounts of effort to ensure the student receives and understands theory that is taught,…

Inside AshcroftTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Ariana focused on angle relationships and probability by reviewing her recent school exam, along with quick-fire practice on square roots.

Year 8 student Nayeshehour completed his maths homework, demonstrating solid understanding of index notation and square roots as well as tackling time conversions between hours and minutes in decimal form.

For a younger student in Year 4, work included practising long division—both with and without remainders—and reinforcing times tables from 6 to 12 for fluency.

Recent Challenges

In Year 7 mathematics, one student often left homework incomplete and skipped answering many revision questions, making it difficult to pinpoint areas needing review.

A tutor observed, "her working out is confusing and may not be accepted by her classroom teacher," after she solved long division in her head without showing steps.

In senior years, exam stress led another student to misplace notes on angles and probability—she then struggled to recall key concepts during assessments.

In primary English, a reluctance to read full passages resulted in missing details required for comprehension questions.

Messy written work sometimes made graph interpretation harder for teachers to follow.

Recent Achievements

One Ashcroft tutor noticed a big shift in Ariana, a Year 7 student who previously hesitated with long division—she now solves multi-digit problems independently and recently completed her homework without any errors.

In a senior session, another high school student tackled one-step algebraic equations after initially struggling; she could explain why each operation matters, and started using opposite operations unprompted.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who used to wait for help is now confidently reading clocks on his own and interpreting worded time questions without assistance.

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 Miller Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ashcroft Public School.
