Tutors have to be there to help with anything a student doesn’t fully understand and they can rely on the tutor to provide knowledge and guidance. Students should be able to rely on their tutor whenever they need them. I have gained some experience in tutoring and I feel as though this has elevated my teaching skills. I care about the student…

I believe one of the most important thing a tutor can do for a student would be to support them throughout their schooling and to keep a professional yet casual relationship with them. A tutor/teacher not only just teaches them math and english but also observes their student to target their weaknesses and improve on them. I think that I am a kind…

In my opinion, the most important thing is to view them as a unique individual, that has valuable strengths and weaknesses, therefore needs to be cared for differently. There is no one-for-all method for teaching, and I am willing to tailor what I do to what they need, to ensure they have the best experience, making the journey more efficient and…

The most vital thing as a tutor: 1. always give students the content that is appropriate to their current learning level. Students will quickly lose their interest or attention if the content is too easy or hard compared to their learning level. 2. build trust with students and their families. Young people tend to listen to a tutor who is…

True learning happens when students build the tools to think for themselves.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is build a student's confidence and make learning feel approachable. When students feel supported and understood, they're far more likely to engage, ask questions, and take risks, which is where real growth happens!

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.
