Tutors are just not there to help students with their students. Their most important role is to be friends and be able to guide their students in the right direction. If tutors become friends, the students listen and trust them more. Of course this does not mean that students can take tutors for a ride. As a tutor I am hardworking, diligent and…

To begin with, a tutor must encourage a student to do better and learn from previous mistakes. Getting upset/impatient with a student is only going to discourage the student and prevent him/her from reaching potential; and that's the opposite of the desired goal. In addition, confidence has to be built in a student; this way a student will be able…

It is most important for a tutor to engage with the student, so that they will be more inclined to be attentive and take the lessons seriously. It is also neccesary to make the neccesary preperations required for the student, e.g background research for foreign topics/ or remodled questions, to suit the student's needs and allow for efficient…

I think tutoring should be personal to each student, and that students should be able to feel a connection to their tutor. This can be achieved by adapting to each student's learning styles with different forms or methods of explanation or examples. It is also important that a tutor constantly encourages their students to never give up easily.…

As a tutor, the most important thing is to improve the student marks and to be interested and make them enjoy in the subjects they study.

Lastly, explaining the sums instead of learning theories by heart is also a challenging…

The most important thing is helping someone develop a passion for the subject so that they want to learn more.

If a tutor can help a student retain even a small percentage of that, its an amazing achievement. Most of the…

I set up goals by coming up with strategies for individual sections, and giving students ways to measure how well they’re implementing the strategy. Implementing these strategies successfully on homework is a short-term goal, on practice tests are intermediate goals, and on their live exam is a long-term goal. It is fine if students are slow to…

Inside Dundas ValleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Lillian worked through **fraction operations and strategies for NAPLAN non-calculator questions**, focusing on backchecking answers and applying the reciprocal method when dividing fractions.

In Year 8, Max revised equations by tackling test-style problems and also practised **structuring essays for English assessments**.

Year 10 student Emily focused on **trigonometry, particularly using exact values and trigonometric identities**, as well as reviewing challenging homework from the previous week to strengthen understanding of core skills.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, one student was inconsistent at attempting the algebra practices given and explained gaps in completing homework sheets, which led to resummarizing notes instead of building fluency through practice.

Another senior student struggled with organizing notes across lessons—using loose papers rather than a dedicated notebook—making it difficult to revisit key strategies before assessments.

For a Year 7 learner, revision focused mainly on missed or familiar topics; as a tutor noted, "Max must remember certain concepts and formulas through continued practice," but rarely reviewed more challenging material.

In Year 3, incomplete homework meant subtraction skills didn't solidify, making word problems even harder during sessions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Dundas Valley recently noticed some great shifts across different year levels. One high school student who used to hesitate with data analysis now confidently breaks down bar and box plots, even suggesting new maths topics to tackle next session.

Another secondary student has moved from just memorising algebra patterns to actively linking concepts—like connecting financial maths and ratios—to solve unfamiliar problems, showing more initiative in planning their study approach.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who struggled with multi-step worded questions now pauses to underline key words before deciding which operation fits best.

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 Dundas Valley Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Yates Avenue Public School.
