The purpose of a tutor is to provide a one-on-one learning experience; thus, a tutor should be able to adapt to their student's specific needs. A tutor needs to identify weak areas and improve them but also foster confidence in students strong areas. Obviously, a tutor should be well versed in the content that they're teaching. Please note,…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to foster confidence in their students to independently learn and build confidence in their skills. A tutor should also be able to inspire curiosity so that students become better learners in their field and ask questions. Lastly, the tutor should be flexible to personalise the…

A tutor should be able to build upon the basics and the foundation of a subject, most exams require an application of the basics. Students can only achieve full marks if they can apply their core knowledge in different ways to suit a question. Hence, the most important thing a tutor can do is teach ways to apply the basics. In math, there are…

I believe connecting with the student and understanding what their specific learning style and needs are is one of the most important things. One size does not fit all, that's the reason they're getting tutored in the first place because the school setting is not enough. Getting along and figuring out what works for them is key. I can connect well…

Local Reviews

Great convenient service having tutors come to your home. Don't hesitate to give it a try.
Josh

Inside Cardiff SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 Tiffany completed a diagnostic assessment of Year 9 maths to pinpoint priority areas for support.

For Year 10, Ben practised applying the Quadratic Formula and worked through completing the square when solving quadratic equations.

Meanwhile, in Year 8, Olivia reviewed volume and capacity calculations for cylinders and explored literary techniques to improve her English analysis.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student preparing for HSC science exams struggled with planning revision and keeping up with the workload; "results below expectations" was a direct outcome of not practicing enough exam-style questions or reviewing feedback in depth.

In Year 10, one student's algebra work showed frequent gaps because formulas weren't memorized—leading to confusion when tackling indices and surds.

For a Year 4 learner, times tables remained shaky, and difficulties with number place value often resulted in incorrect answers, as noted: "he sometimes made the mistake of forgetting that he took away a place for a number."

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Cardiff South noticed that one Year 10 student, who used to rush through worded maths problems and miss key details, now writes out each step and checks for understanding before moving on—especially when interpreting multi-step financial questions.

Another high schooler who previously struggled with rationalising surds has started catching simple mistakes during practice tests and confidently explains her working, rather than just showing answers.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student initially found maths terminology confusing but by the end of his session could correctly use new terms in conversation and solved two tricky shape questions without prompting.

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 South Public School.
