I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student go beyond just teaching the subject. A tutor should build their confidence, encourage critical thinking, and provide constant support and motivation. It’s also essential to foster independence while ensuring that students always feel supported and know they can seek guidance…

Make sure that the student is comfortable with your way of teaching and is actively involved. Tutoring is not only about jabbering stuff even though the student doesn’t understand a single thing. You have to take it slow and steady until your student is confident enough and can explain the same concept back to you even well. - calmness…

The most important thing is to just be there for them, to understand their strengths and weaknesses and being able to help them where you can. It is also important to encourage your students as having that support can push them further than they think they can.

As we all know, learning should not be restricted to getting good marks in any institution or to memorising lists of facts. The most important things that can be given are the motivation and ability to keep finding things out for oneself (and to fact check new information without relying on AI or internet rumour). Seeing and approaching topics…

I think the most important thing is that they feel motivated to learn, and that going to a tutor would be a fun experience for them. With that, a tutor should be able to clearly teach students and that the student can confidently go to a tutor knowing that he or she will fully understand his or lessons. They should always feel that the learning…

Inside CardiffTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Julian focused on geometry by reviewing faces, edges, and vertices of 3D shapes, then strengthened addition and subtraction skills with both two-digit and four-digit numbers.

For Year 10, Hannah tackled simultaneous equations using elimination and bracket expansion as well as simplifying surds and indices.

In Year 12, Priya concentrated on HSC Physics topics including the photoelectric effect, Einstein's postulates, and completed extended response questions about relativity.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Mathematics, a student's test performance suffered due to time management during tests—they often rushed the last section, leaving answers incomplete.

A Year 10 learner frequently skipped showing working in algebra; as one tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

In Year 8, messy written work made it difficult to track mistakes when simplifying surds or handling negatives.

Meanwhile, an HSC candidate in Physics submitted responses that were "too shallow," with feedback left unaddressed between sessions. This led to repeated misunderstandings and a sense of frustration after each assessment result.

Recent Achievements

One Cardiff tutor noted a Year 9 student who previously skipped steps when tackling worded maths questions now carefully writes out every stage, which has helped him interpret tricky problems more independently.

A high schooler working on financial maths had been struggling with compounding period conversions but now reliably gets these right and even asks for extra multi-step practice.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who was initially unsure about shape names can confidently identify all the main 3D shapes without hesitation—last session, he even volunteered to teach his sibling how to tell a prism from a pyramid.

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 Cardiff Library, kuram—or at your child's school (with permission), like Cardiff North Public School.
