A tutor must be able to communicate with their student. A tutor's job is to be professional but as well finding ways to engage the student to strive to achieve academic greatness. My strengths as a tutor is my persistence. I get along with most people and we make sure my student learns the required understanding with minimal…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do are (1) instill in a student the confidence that they are or can be good at a subject and can overcome the challenges they are experiencing, and (2) get the student excited about the subject so that they feel energized about learning it in the future. My strengths are my empathy, communication…

I think it is important to motivate and inspire a student to believe in their own abilities. I have learned during highschool that one cannot rely on their intelligence for success, i have come to understand that the truly successful people are hardworking and dedicated. I hope as a tutor I can instill in my students the importance of hardwork and…

As I have mentioned before, the most important thing for a tutor is to understand the student's point of view; look at the problem from their perspective. Another important quality any tutor to possess for their student is to be patient. Patience is extremely important for all the aspects previously mentioned. I am multilingual with high fluency…

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…

I think the most important things that a tutor can offer a student is motivation and inspiration that can help the students to recognise their potentials, as well as a tutor's consistency and patience can also help the students to reach their goals and targets.

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 a tutor's main priority should not be to achieve a certain mark or grade but instead, focus on improvement. Yes indeed grades are crucial but improvements, even minor ones, are catalysts to a student's motivation. A tutor must understand a student's learning habits and adjust to suit and be encouraging at all times. The main task of a…

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.
