The most important thing a tutor can do is help their student feel confident and capable. It’s all about creating a comfortable space where they can ask questions, tailoring the approach to fit their needs, and giving them the tools to solve problems on their own. It’s not just about learning the material—it’s about helping them believe…

In my view, the most important thing a teacher can do for a student is to inspire a lifelong love for learning. Beyond imparting knowledge and skills, a teacher's role extends to nurturing curiosity, critical thinking, and a genuine enthusiasm for acquiring new information. When a teacher instills a passion for learning, they empower students to…

The most important thing is that the student feels comfortable with the tutor and that they enjoy their teaching sessions. As soon as the student is comfortable, they will be much more engaged in the task at hand. Students learn best when they enjoy the activities in class and when there is a mutual respect between the tutor and the tutee. I am…

In my opinion, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is instill a love of learning within them. If a student enjoys learning and wants to learn, they will thrive.

One of the most important things a tutor can do, other than assisting them to excel in all areas of learning is to instil them with the confidence to learn. This is crucial as it allows students to believe that school work/learning is to be something that is fun rather than a “chore†or boring. Once this occurs, the student begins to engage…

It is so important for tutors to adapt their method of teaching to the way the student learns. Every student not only has different needs and difficulties, but learns concepts differently.

To me, a tutor must be able to effectively communicate ideas to students in a manner that allows them to understand the concept. Understanding of more conceptually difficult topics is a difficulty every student faces and is ultimately the barrier against marks. Being able to really connect with a student and portray the idea at hand in a manner in…

I think the best thing a tutor can do is make learning feel achievable.

For me, the most important things a tutor can do for a student include helping through their academic struggles, but in a way which is reinforcing and allows the student to fully grasp a concept and find satisfaction in it.

Thanks for all your help with Griffin over the years. Its really made a difference to his grades.

Inside ClovellyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Oliver focused on converting between decimals and fractions as well as simplifying mixed and improper fractions.

For Year 9, Ava worked through compound interest calculations and compared simple versus compound investments using value tables.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Jack tackled factorisation methods in algebra along with more complex problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions by applying factorisation strategies.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student tackling trigonometry found multi-step sine and cosine rule questions challenging when working alone; the tutor noted, "he needed guidance to find relevant angles," revealing a struggle to persist through complex problems without support.

In Year 11 Maths, worded income tax and commission problems proved overwhelming—questions with dense text led to missed steps and confusion.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student's written work remained difficult to follow due to unorganized note-taking in probability tasks: "notes were scattered across the page."

Not putting pen to paper during homework left gaps that made it tough for tutors to pinpoint sources of confusion.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Clovelly noticed a Year 9 student who used to avoid asking for help now openly requests clarification when stuck, especially with factorisation questions—an important shift from silent guessing.

In Year 11, one student recently corrected their own homework errors after carefully reviewing feedback, showing genuine independence that wasn't there before.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who had struggled with long division earlier in the year has begun explaining solution steps out loud while working through problems and now completes them confidently without guidance. Last session, they finished an entire worksheet alone.

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 Randwick Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Anthony's Catholic Primary School.
