The tutor should be able to explain to the student the concept properly to the point where the student fully understands how to do different examples of a question by themselves. I believe that the tutor should not do the question for the students but explain the key ideas needed for the question to encourage the student to answer it themselves. I…

I believe that as a tutor, the crucial things that I must always do for my students include: - identify their weakness by thoroughly observing their performances in various tasks - help them improve on their weakness by consistent practice, not rigorous, but consistent - help set milestones for every student which challenge their weaknesses and…

We should always lend an ear to hear their queries. Once they find us to to be comfortable, they would not feel bad to ask questions and solve their doubts. We need to encourage the students if they are weak in certain sections so that they could catch along with others easily. I am patient enough to clarify the doubts of children. Friendly…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is help a student believe in their own ability to succeed. A tutor has the power to inspire and guide academic understanding, with which comes a student's confidence and motivation towards that subject. By forming a positive relationship with tailored lessons, a tutor can create an environment…

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.

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…

1. Give the motivation and belief of actually having the potential to grow and improve. 2. Actually explain the theory to an in-depth level to solve similar problems with different twists. 3.

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

Being understanding of the emotions that go on through learning new material is very important, it helps us connect with our student…

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.

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.
