A tutor should always be available for their student. According to me, a biology tutor should always try to convey their message as politely as they can which should be in a language a student can easily understand I am confident and have great leadership skills. Being myself a student I can easily understand the mindset of a…

Additionally, the tutor should set strategies and goals to ensure that challenge is overcome efficiently and nothing is forgotten. The tutor should also be an aid to the parents to ensure they are happy with progress. Overall,…

As a biology tutor, I could assist students to understand their subjects by motivating them involving an interactive class with students. When I went to tutoring, I had the best experience by having a very motivated, interactive and interesting tutor. I will try to become one of them though I'm still yet to gain formal experience of tutoring In…

Additionally, promote analytical thinking and problem-solving skills rather than just memorisation of facts. And finally, offer emotional support and encouragement, helping students manage stress and…

1. A tutor can shape how a student thinks about a particular topic/subject. If while teaching something the tutor himself/herself is not interested then the student will be less likely to pay 100% attention 2. A tutor can empower the student to learn better and at their own pace. Just letting the student know that it is okay if you take more time…

The most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is reassure them that it is perfectly normal to not understand a topic straight away.

I believe that teaching is not about pumping a student with exam papers or to make them memorise the answers and get good grades, for my satisfaction. But about really making sure the student understands a concept, so that they have a strong foundation and can apply to it many different question styles. This will actively stimulate creativity and…

Therefore, being an tutor who displays empathy about understanding what its like being a…

The most important thing a biology tutor can do is to actually listen to their student. If they are not being receptive to feedback, and the student is not learning, then there is no progress being made. Rather, there has to be an active conversation between tutor and student that helps communicate the student's needs. I think I'm really receptive…

Inside Craigburn FarmTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Oliver worked on building confidence with multiplication and division facts, as well as practising real-life time problems using visual aids.

In Year 10, Emily focused on drawing derivatives given the original function and explored key principles in circular motion and gravitation.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Josh tackled applications of integration to solve physics-based magnetic induction questions, working through multi-step problems for deeper understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student, when working on proof questions in maths, hesitated to start without clear strategies and sometimes avoided writing out the first steps—this led to confusion about what equations were needed.

In senior physics, a Year 12 student hadn't completed enough independent revision between sessions; "Hadn't done much revision between our last two sessions so needs to get plenty done," noted one tutor.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student struggled with retaining time and currency conversions from week to week, which slowed progress during new tasks.

Each case showed that gaps in process—rather than understanding—held them back at key moments.

Recent Achievements

One Craigburn Farm tutor noticed a Year 10 student who had previously avoided revision now dedicating extra time each week to exam prep, leading to much clearer understanding of equations and how to interpret them.

A Year 11 learner made real strides with magnetic induction—after struggling initially, he was able to explain the concept back in his own words by the end of the session.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student shifted from silently solving maths problems to enthusiastically sharing her strategies out loud, showing new openness and engagement she hadn't displayed before.

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 Blackwood Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Concordia College (St Peters Campus, Blackwood).
