I would consider the most important thing a tutor could do, would be to teach their student more than they knew to begin with. It's a very simple statement, but it gets to the heart of the matter I feel. All the methods a tutor uses should be geared towards helping the student learn something, and have them understand and remember what they've…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to build confidence, foster independent thinking, and make learning meaningful and accessible. Firstly, confidence is key. Many students struggle not because they lack ability, but because they doubt themselves. A good tutor helps build a student's self-belief by celebrating…

Tutors do the same things a good teacher does - i.e., providing students with an encouraging, and motivating atmosphere to learn to foster interest in a subject. They, however, also give an additional benefit - individual attention. Therefore, they can play a big role in a student's education. They can be a friend and guide, helping them in each…

I believe it is important a tutor should be someone who a student can rely on, not to give them an answer but to give them a tool or a guide to solve the problem on their own, or at least to get them to the next step. A student should be motivated to solve the problem while confident in the knowledge that the tutor will be there every single step…

To bring out their natural curiosity to learn. I don't consider marks as the only criterion of assessment.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to guide them without taking over their learning. My teaching philosophy is “tut wuri handayani,†which means guiding from behind.

Jo

Inside DicksonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Owen focused on algebraic techniques and revising for a test on networks and graph theory, working through assigned school problems and discussing weighted graphs.

In Year 9, Isla spent her lesson reviewing probability concepts like conditional probability using classic real-world scenarios, then practiced with venn diagrams and tree diagrams to prepare for an upcoming assessment.

For primary, Year 5 student Rhys drilled surface area and volume formulas for 3D shapes using flashcards, then addressed mistakes from his recent test by practicing fraction operations.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Chemistry, one student repeatedly needed reminders to recall the basics of reactions (e.g., hydrogen and oxygen forming H₂O), revealing weak retention due to not keeping a science notes book.

Another in Year 9 Mathematics depended heavily on solution formulas and struggled when asked to solve x + x = 6 without reference materials—needs to write working out down, as noted.

In Year 8 Probability, forgetting or confusing algebraic rules made rearranging P(A) + P(not A) = 1 difficult, causing uncertainty mid-question.

These habits led to lost confidence and time spent searching for forgotten facts instead of building deeper understanding.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Dickson noticed a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to tackle algebraic expressions now working through expanding brackets and factoring with much less prompting, even recalling the process after just one reminder.

In senior chemistry, another high schooler answered questions on chemical bonding independently—last term, he needed step-by-step help for similar problems.

Meanwhile, a younger student who used to guess quietly during reading tasks now speaks up confidently to offer answers and has started reading new passages out loud without waiting for encouragement.

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 Dickson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Daramalan College.
