Essential steps a tutor can implement involve boosting confidence, accommodating learning preferences, and fostering a nurturing atmosphere. I once assisted a student having difficulty with algebra by simplifying concepts into manageable steps and incorporating real-world illustrations—such as cutting a pizza to clarify variables (e.g., “If a…

Aside from assisting them with their learning and studies, I believe it is extremely important that we help the student to feel more confident in themselves and to feel well-supported. School and studying can be extremely stressful so I believe it's extremely important that they have a space where they can feel secure and can ask for help. My…

The most crucial quality of a tutor has to be the ability to not be afraid of the inquisitiveness of a student and handle each and every question with patience, to be able to empathize with the student in order to understand how you would want a person to respond to you if you were in the same situation. As a person who learns in and outside of…

To put it very simply, a tutor can change the entire life of a student. The struggles students face in learning and understanding, have a greater impact on their future, as most of them give up early on their education as a result of such struggles. A tutor can provide an extra hand to a student to hold on to, in order to make sure that they are…

I am a firm believer that to be a good tutor, one should be within the listening range of a child and respect their viewpoints to build their confidence and morale. A tutor should be guiding and assisting a student in finding solutions rather than giving them the solutions to problems. My strengths as a tutor are: Empathetic Patient Love…

Build their confidence so they can solve problems independently, like debugging code on their own. A tutor should encourage questions, give clear explanations without spoon-feeding answers, and track progress to keep motivation up, especially during tough project deadlines in uni. I'm pretty patient and good at breaking down complex code or…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be patient and show empathy.

Tutoring can be challenging, especially when it comes to motivating your learner. You see the potential they have, and they often hear about the potential they have, but they do not feel as though they got what it takes. Living in such a busy and demanding time can often make us feel the time constraints on everything we do and we expect our…

Inside BurwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emily practised multiplication and fractions, working through long division strategies to boost confidence.

In Year 9, Ethan focused on solving quadratic equations by factorisation and simplifying expressions, as well as exploring graph transformations using visual aids.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mia revised simultaneous equations and functions—solving systems both algebraically and graphically—to prepare for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student working on quadratic equations often omitted key steps in their written solutions—he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors—making it harder to identify mistakes.

In a Year 8 class, one student avoided homework and relied heavily on guessing answers instead of attempting the calculations, especially during worded problems.

For a Year 4 lesson, another child struggled to focus and frequently left tasks incomplete when practicing multiplication tables.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for exams did not attempt assigned practice papers outside lessons, resulting in less familiarity with time-pressured questions.

Recent Achievements

One Burwood tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to rely on step-by-step guidance now arriving at sessions with her own attempted exam questions, only needing small hints to push through tricky parts—she's even begun correcting her own mistakes before asking for help.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student who struggled to keep up with homework is now consistently completing tasks on time and presenting neater working out in maths, showing real ownership of her learning.

In a younger class, one child who often hesitated to start tasks has started counting by twos independently and no longer says "I don't know" right away when faced with new problems.

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 Burwood Library and Community Hub—or at your child's school (with permission), like Burwood Public School.
