One of the most important thing a tutor can do is be able to listen tot he child and not get frustrated at them if they are unable to grasp the concept. It is about taking the time to work through the question slowly and doing it step by step so the child can ask questions in each of the steps, therefore they are more likely to be able to tackle…

To listen to the student. If a student doesn’t understand something, it’s the responsibility of the tutor to try a different method and to have patience with the student. Having struggled myself with maths in school, before fully understanding it, I am used to rephrasing/explaining concepts in different ways, and providing tips to help…

I believe that it is important that a tutor can help the student to understand the concepts in a way that works for them in a non-judgmental space that feels comfortable and welcoming. I believe that it is important that the tutor helps the student achieve their personal academic goals whether it is building confidence in themselves and their…

A tutor makes a student feel like even though the work is difficult and deadlines are looming, everything will be okay. The tutor acts as a mentor who helps students to improve their time management and study skills, as well as clarifying difficult points. This makes the student feel reassured about their progress through the course. I like to…

The most important way in which I can aid my students is by providing them with the capability to master new content on their own. Alongside this, I can provide advice from the position of having completed with which they are grappling, allowing me to better aid them with my 'inside knowledge' of the curriculum. I believe my main strengths as a…

A tutor should be particularly approachable and friendly in order for the student to feel as if they enjoy tutoring and that they can ask for help. Being encouraging is important to boost the students' confidence. A tutor should also be able to explain concepts in very simple terms and not assume the student knows things already. I am a very…

I consider the most important thing a tutor can for a student is to lead them on a path so that they might discover the answer themselves, and not give them the answer straight out. As a trained facilitator, I believe I would be able to identify my student's needs and work with them to fulfill those needs. I also have a proficiency in written…

The personalisation of learning is the most important thing I consider a tutor can do for their student.

Therefore, I believe it is important to truly incorporate their interests and maximise their strengths in tutoring, for the students to build…

The most important part of being a tutor is ensuring all pursuits are cerebral and remaining disciplined when working with children.

The most important thing for a tutor is to be actively listening; a tutor should respond to the student since tutoring differs from general teaching by way of individuality. Each student can express themselves as a person to a tutor rather than just another student in a class. I believe I am great at adapting my teaching style to cater for each…

My understanding of a tutors role is not to do the students work, yet to uncover their natural ability so that they may proceed to increase their academic results. Therefore, the most important thing a tutor can do is not only provide advice but draw out the best of people. I have been told I am a 'people person', I previously worked in a busy…

I consider tutoring to be important in two ways: academics and self-growth. Being a tutor to me means bringing out the best in someone academically as well as providing them with the tools they need to become independent, life-long learners. I think a great tutor is someone who can help their student grow to love and appreciate the subject of…

I think the ability to listen to the needs of each student to tailor your methods to them is vital in maximising their success.

Local Reviews

Jack is great and Lily is enjoying tutoring so far.
Cindie, Crafers

Inside CrafersTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Raffy worked on algebra skills including factorising and expanding, and also compared frequency tables and percentages while finalising his assignment.

In Year 9, Jack focused on solving linear and simultaneous equations, as well as expanding and factorising expressions using guided examples.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Ella practiced measurement concepts such as surface area and volume, with extra attention to applying unit conversions during revision.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student in algebra often rushed to finish, skipping clear working and making small sign errors—"he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

In Year 10 Chemistry, a lack of basic organization (forgetting a graph book and textbook) led to lost lesson time and missed questions.

For a senior student tackling financial maths, missing their graphics calculator left them unable to access core content in class.

A primary student's page layout became messy during fractions work, making mistakes harder to spot at review.

Confidence dips after setbacks were visible in both middle and upper years.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Crafers recently noticed some great shifts across different year levels. One high school student who used to make lots of "silly mistakes" during tests has started slowing down and double-checking his answers, which meant he completed his last practice test with almost no avoidable errors.

Another older student, after previously staying quiet when stuck, now asks for clarification right away if a question feels confusing—something she'd never done before.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student who was nervous about "letters in math" surprised herself by talking through algebra problems out loud and even told her tutor she enjoys maths now.

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 Stirling Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Catherine's School.
