I believe that tutors should help their students achieve their goals. In my opinion there is no better feeling than achieving your goals. Tutors should help students achieve their academic goals, by assessing what type of learning the student is best suited too and developing subsequent education plans to improve their understanding towards the…

One of the most important things a tutor can do is to try to find out the way the student learns best. Whether it is visually, auditory, or another way, the tutor should try to teach in a way that the student can learn the easiest, especially for primary school kids so they can begin to enjoy learning and studying instead of it being a boring task…

At its core, tutoring is about so much more than academic work; it's about building a relationship, cultivating a connection, and helping students change not only their results in a class, but also their attitude toward it. I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is adapting their learning to give a more personalised learning…

Local Reviews

We were very happy with the tutor, Milhan.
Brett, Byford

Inside ByfordTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Devang focused on identifying and editing run-on, fragment, and correct sentence types using writing exercises, along with practicing plural/singular nouns in context.

In Year 10, Kana worked through essay structure revision for ATAR English and tackled a spelling quiz with self-correction for commonly misspelled words.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Harry concentrated on exam preparation involving trigonometric equations and linear relationships, plus revisited key geometry concepts through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student arrived without his vocabulary words and brought the wrong notebook, saying, "I couldn't find them," which led to time spent on organization rather than learning visual techniques in English.

For a Year 11 ATAR English student, recent exam results prompted her to photocopy the paper for review together; planning how to address missed feedback is now essential.

In a Year 6 maths session, incomplete homework meant lesson time was diverted to catching up instead of moving forward.

A senior student erased correct fraction answers out of uncertainty—"she overthinks them or questions herself"—slowing progress and deepening self-doubt.

Recent Achievements

One Byford tutor saw a big shift with a Year 8 student who, after struggling to add fractions using the lowest common denominator, was able to break down problems visually and explain her thinking out loud—she now tackles new fraction questions with much less prompting.

In Year 10 maths, another student recently started checking her algebra solutions independently rather than waiting for reassurance, especially when factorising and expanding brackets—a step up from last term's hesitation.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who used to skip tricky words in reading is now pausing to sound them out and even asks about unfamiliar vocabulary during sessions.

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 Mundijong Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Byford John Calvin School.
