I believe the two most important things tutors can do for their students is: to give detailed feedback on a student’s work, recognising their weaknesses and discussing the specific questions in detail, whilst congratulating the student on their correct answers; and to ensure that the student never feels ‘dumb’, leading to them feeling…

I believe it is really important that a tutor is able to communicate well, encourage and understand the primary needs of their students. The tutor should then be able to think of many different and useful strategies to help the student learn. It is very important the tutor brings a sense of fun to the lesson, to urge the student to want to learn…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to be able to fix crucial gaps in a student's knowledge. And consequently, be able to assist the student to achieve full potential in school results. Being patient and understanding that if a student doesn't understand the subject after a few times practicing it, we can always try…

I think a tutor's most important role is to build the confidence of students by providing them with personalised teaching that helps them connect with the topic.

Local Reviews

Marysa has been tutoring my 17 year old son for 1 year, and now also using her for tutoring my 15 year old daughter. Rapport was quickly established between each of them, which is not difficult due to Marysa's maturity, knowledge, respect, and her unwavering support to each child. Every single lesson is met with a bubbly, up beat, and smiling tutor. The advancement in my children's skills, knowledge, and confidence is immeasurable. After a difficult start to finding the correct fit with a tutor, we have been provided a jewel with Marysa.

Inside BrightonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ella revised multiples of 3 and practiced area and perimeter calculations for both regular and irregular shapes.

Year 6 student Lucas worked on comparing decimal numbers to three places, explored improper fractions versus mixed numbers, and practiced expressing decimals as fractions using visual aids.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Max tackled NAPLAN numeracy practice questions with calculator use, focusing on relationships between fractions, decimals, and percentages alongside key fraction terminology and equivalence.

Recent Challenges

In Year 5 maths, one student repeatedly skipped labeling headings on place value boards ("hundredths to Hundred Thousands"), making it difficult to organize decimal work.

During a Year 8 algebra session, a notebook was left at home—so examples were jotted on loose scraps and later misplaced.

In English (Year 7), over-erasing and correcting narrative drafts led to lost ideas and slower progress; as noted: "She erased sentences so often her story stalled mid-way."

For Year 11 problem-solving, working only familiar fraction drills meant multi-step worded questions remained unsolved—confidence dropped after repeated setbacks in class discussions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Brighton noted that Brooke, a high school student, moved from relying on instructions to independently constructing triangles using a compass and reasoning through the process herself.

In another session, Prajna (Year 8) initially hesitated with index notation but quickly picked up the concept and solved calculator-based problems without prompting.

Meanwhile, Jye in Year 5 shifted from rushing homework to taking time for self-correction—he now pauses to re-read texts and uses decoding strategies when faced with unfamiliar words. Last week, he completed all spelling activities and set out his decimal calculations more clearly than before.

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 Brighton Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Brighton Primary School.
