I consider that the most important things a tutor can do for the student are - to give the student confidence in the subject (in this case mathematics) - to make the learning process motivating and enjoyable - to develop reasoning and critical thinking - to make the student see the applicability of the learning. I am familiar with a variety of…

One of the most crucial things a tutor can do for a student is communicate with them so they comprehend the material. I see a lot of teachers that know a great deal about a subject but don't know how to express it effectively enough for everyone to understand. As a tutor, I feel that the most essential thing is to ensure that the students…

I think the most important thing that a tutor can do for their student is remaining patient and continue to persevere with the content. In my experience, if I didn't understand a concept or was struggling with a question, it was extremely helpful when my tutor continued to talk me through the topic and didn't get frustrated at me for not…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to offer all the help that they can give. The struggles that the tutors' have faced during their school years, should not be repeated in the lives of future students.

Being able to help a student achieve future problems on their own by helping them understand how to do a problem rather than just providing the solution is one of the most important things I consider a tutor can do for a student. I also think it's important to be prepared to help them with their topics by preparing first myself. I believe my…

Being able to consistently be present for my students is the most important thing to do as a tutor. Through my experience, I have either built a online channel I can use to communicate with them or their parents to check in on their progress at home. Doing this allows the students to have support 24/7 even outside tutoring lessons in order to…

Teaching the content and helping them fully grasp it, rather than doing it for them. I find that a lot of subjects have a particular rhythm to them; although some require rote learning (like particular concepts, especially within math), there are always patterns that can be identified so that students achieve their very best. For example: Stage 2…

For high school students, I find that the most important thing a tutor can do is to build a student's confidence in their own abilities. More often than not, I hear student's say that they don't know what they're doing, which can hold them back from trying their best. It's a fact of psychology that people tend to sabotage their own efforts when…

We are really happy with Roy's tutoring of our daughter. He has gained her trust and rapport and is steadily increasing her confidence with Maths.

Inside Edinburgh NorthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Chase worked on identifying and spelling new vocabulary using word searches and syllable exercises, as well as reading aloud from Andy Griffiths' *13-Storey Treehouse*.

For Year 9, Amelia reviewed integers and indices to bridge gaps in her understanding, then practised calculating the perimeter and circumference of both complete and incomplete circles.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ethan focused on solving linear equations in two variables using elimination and substitution methods, along with tackling related word problems for extra practice.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student did not bring their biology test or English materials ("The Merchant of Venice"), which meant critical revision could not happen—preparation suffered, and gaps remained.

For a Year 8 maths session, he tended to skip steps and not explain them, so sign errors in algebra went unnoticed until checking time.

A Year 6 student's written work in problem-solving was messy and hard to follow, making it tough to spot where misunderstandings occurred.

One senior student relied on memory instead of using provided rubrics for science assignments, missing key criteria in the process.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Edinburgh North noticed Chelsea now asks for clarification the moment she's unsure about equations, rather than staying quiet and guessing—she's also submitting homework regularly with neat, self-checked working.

In another session, Caitlin moved from needing guidance on geometry problems to solving most independently and even tackled new variations without hesitation.

Meanwhile, Chase in Year 6 has started breaking down tricky words using finger-tap spelling—something he used to avoid—and now circles back to tackle tougher reading questions after finishing the easier ones first.

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 Playford Civic Centre Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Patrick's Technical College.
