I think to be able to cater to each sutdent individually is the most important thing a tutor can do. Each student learns and processes information differently. By understanding this the tutor can adapt their teaching style to suit that of the student. I think my experience in my job and as a student now studying teaching, I have the skills to be a…

I want my students to leave each lesson feeling more capable than when they arrived.

Every student learns differently, so I would take the time to…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is to be very clear and not convoluted when explaining topics, equations, etc. to students, as it can be very easy to get intimated as a student and end up confused.

I think the most important things a tutor can do are making a student feel safe enough to say 'I don't understand,' and building their confidence alongside their skills.

Inside ClaremontTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Ethan focused on exponential functions and polynomial equations, including practice with graphing and algebraic manipulation.

In Year 10, Mia tackled the circle theorem and polynomial division, working through geometric proofs alongside algebraic long division problems.

For primary support, Year 4 student Tilly worked on multiplication strategies for two- and three-digit numbers as well as area and perimeter calculations using real-life worded examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student found it difficult to slow down and write out all variables when approaching physics questions, leading to confusion over what was being asked. "It is always best practice to slow down and write down all your variables prior to starting any working out," one tutor observed after a rushed attempt left key steps missing.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student sometimes skipped back-checking answers in algebra, which meant sign errors weren't spotted until much later.

In primary maths, a Year 4 student struggled with lining up numbers during addition and subtraction, resulting in misplaced digits and basic calculation errors.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Claremont recently noticed some great changes: one high school student who used to rush through tests has started slowing down to carefully read each question, which helped him spot and fix errors he previously missed.

Another older student now uses pen-to-paper and back-checking strategies without being prompted—just a few weeks ago, she needed reminders for these steps but now applies them on her own when tackling complex worksheets.

In primary sessions, a Year 5 girl who struggled with her 7 times tables is now able to answer random multiplication questions quickly and confidently.

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 Claremont Community Hub & Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Methodist Ladies' College.
