A tutor should teach their student how to think. They shouldn't be teaching them to rote memorise (although there is a place for that in high school academics) but rather a general method of solving problems. When a tutor's work is done, their student should be able to look at a difficult problem, identify what kind of a problem it is and apply…

When I was tutored in high school, I found that the most important thing my tutor provided was a high level of support while also encouraging me to develop my own skills and ideas. She allowed me the autonomy to develop and refine my abilities, within the framework of relevant areas of study and school curriculum. She also provided additional…

The most important thing that a tutor can do to the students is to make them comfortable with the topics they are studying such that they find the curriculum fun to learn rather than a burden to bear.

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…

A tutor must be able to not only teach the concepts to a student but to also teach the student how to learn and study outside of tutorial times.

I think teaching the correct and fastest way of problem solving skill is the most important, especially in topics of mathematics. Making sure if they could master each tiny parts are also essential as problems are mixed and connected in harder questions.

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.
