The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to just help them with their work and listen to their needs and help with those needs. I think that my strengths are: - being an effective communicators - knowing how and when to give critical feedback - being able to explain concepts in a way that is different than normal - being able…

I believe a tutor should give encouragement generously. A tutor should also empower students by teaching them skills that will help them throughout their schooling and beyond. I care about my students. I try to identify their learning style so that I'm better equipped to help them. I encourage my students to work their way through problems instead…

Create a non-toxic environment where a student feel comfortable to learn and ask questions. To me I feel this to be the most important factor in learning as feeling comfortable with asking questions and knowing you won't recieve a toxic response is vital in a student excelling in a subject.

For high school students, I find that the most important thing a tutor can do is to build a student's confidence in their own abilities. More often than not, I hear student's say that they don't know what they're doing, which can hold them back from trying their best. It's a fact of psychology that people tend to sabotage their own efforts when…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do are to build the student’s confidence, create a supportive learning environment, and teach them how to learn independently. It’s not just about solving problems for them, it’s about giving them the tools and strategies to tackle challenges on their own. A tutor should motivate students,…

I think the most important thing we can do as tutors is provide confidence. It’s the core of everything. Confidence radiates from knowing the content, trusting yourself with the hard work you’ve put in and reflecting upon past mistakes with a positive mindset to move forward. Whether it be in studying, work or life, confidence is key. My…

The most important thing is give a student confidence in their own abilities. Without confidence, a student will continue to doubt themselves and struggle whether you are guiding them in their learning or not.

I believe the most important thing which a tutor can do for a student is not only teach them what they need to know but teach them the skills which they need to succeed on their own. I believe this because although a tutor can help with their learning, they can't be there every single step of the way, especially after high school. These skills…

As I outlined earlier, a teacher's or a tutor's sole responsibility is not to teach academia, it is to serve as a role model and to help their students grow as people.

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to give them the confidence to never stop trying to learn despite few low moments.

He was easy to work with for my son and supported him with the work he found the hardest. He was professional and well prepared to support the curriculum.
Alex

Inside BlakeviewTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sam focused on place value to four digits and expanded notation, building up number sense through hands-on activities.

Year 8 student Alex practiced solving linear equations in two variables using both elimination and substitution methods, as well as tackling related word problems for deeper understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ethan explored trigonometry by working on word problems involving triangles and finding all the main trigonometric ratios, reinforcing concepts with targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12, last-minute work on the Research Project meant Sam "left little time to polish," with one session lost just sourcing articles—time pressure limited deeper learning.

Over-reliance on tutor sessions for assignment completion replaced independent effort.

In Year 10 Maths, skipping steps in algebra ("sometimes skips the steps in an equation when written") made error spotting difficult and slowed progress during problem-solving.

A Year 5 student struggled to recall multiplication facts automatically, making worded problems more challenging and leading to hesitancy mid-question.

Missing preparation or incomplete notes repeatedly left students unable to fully engage or absorb feedback within their sessions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Blakeview noticed Chelsea is now regularly asking clarifying questions during algebra sessions instead of hesitating when stuck—this shift has helped her accurately solve equations using both substitution and elimination.

Caitlin, also in high school, recently tackled challenging geometry problems by trying new solution strategies on her own; just a few weeks ago, she would wait for hints before attempting harder questions.

Meanwhile, a primary student was able to read out five-digit numbers confidently and used the bridging-to-10 strategy to solve addition problems independently 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 Playford Civic Centre Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Blakes Crossing Christian College.
