I think being a good tutor should be encouraging and passionate. And tutors should know what students need for help on their strengths and weakness. Also, tutors also should always encourage students to be brave in asking questions so the students can get faster improvement. Especially for young age students, they are hard to focus but it's…

In my experience as a student when my tutors understood my problems and tried to solve them was the thing that stayed with me the longest, also tutors that are your tutors when your studying but friends when you just talk to them. Tutors that are not afraid of showing some tough love when they are disappointed with me are also the ones that keep…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to not only teach them content from the subjects, but to also foster enthusiasm and long lasting study habits so they can succeed even when the tutor isn't there with them. It is also important that the tutor deeply understands the perspective of the student, and any struggles or limited…

The most important thing a tutor can do is understand a student. Tutoring without understanding the student is similar to filling a closed bottle, It's of no use. So First understand the student, understand everyone is unique and everyone has a different pace to grab the things. To deliver things in the way that they need will eventually decrease…

I believe it is most important to not just teach to memorize the material but to understand and know the reason why things are done with certain formulas and methods, this allows the student in the future to be able to build on their newly learned foundation and apply to more advanced areas of study. Furthermore, being able to teach how to think…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be able to teach the student how to learn and apply concepts to a variety of problems rather than teaching them how to do one problem.

At the same time, I can…

1) Interest in the learning. Personally, I am a lot less likely to learn something with the mindset of "this is boring, let's just complete this lecture/class and be done with it" than more actively engaging. 2) Commitment. Namely, I believe that the tutor needs to care about (and pay attention to) the student's learning. 3) Positive…

As a busy family, having the convenience of a tutor come into the house has made it so much easier for us to commit to weekly tutoring. Our tutor is on time and has been helpful for my daughter understanding maths concepts that were challenging her.

Inside Box HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Jamie revised linear functions by identifying x and y axes, finding intercepts, and calculating gradients before plotting coordinates on graphs.

In Year 8, Priya focused on angles in parallel lines, using diagrams to solve for unknown values and reviewing types of angles from term content.

For a Year 9 session, Daniel tackled statistics by constructing frequency tables and bar graphs, then calculated mean, median, mode, and explored box-and-whisker plots to interpret data visually.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student in algebra avoided showing full working when finding gradients from two points—she skipped steps in equations, which made it hard to spot calculation errors.

In a senior statistics session, incomplete homework on box-and-whisker plots left key gaps; the student hesitated during IQR questions.

A Year 6 student's written work was messy and lacked clear layout in long division, leading to repeated confusion with remainders.

Meanwhile, one primary learner struggled to focus during word problem tasks and guessed answers rather than writing solutions—a rushed approach that led to unfinished revision sheets by lesson's end.

Recent Achievements

One Box Hill tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with graph sketching now confidently draws accurate line graphs from just the equation, no prompting needed.

In a recent high school session, another student who previously second-guessed herself with linear equations was able to recall lesson objectives and solve for unknowns without pausing or asking for help.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who struggled with simplifying fractions finally managed to use long division independently by the end of their lesson—after starting out unsure, he worked through several problems on his own and got them right.

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 Blackburn Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of Sion College.
