The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to offer support. This not only means supporting the student through work but also means emotionally supporting the student, giving them the confidence in their abilities. I believe my main strength when tutoring is my ability to listen and respond accordingly. I will patient with each…

A few things are, 1. Make the session more productive and interactive. 2. When teaching something we should not try to make them memorize it, but we should make them understand it. 3. Prior to the session we should have a word with students and identify his/her knowledge level. I can quickly understand the level of students and adjust the…

Being available for your students is the most significant thing any tutor can do. Just being available alone is not the thing, you must also be able to communicate with them in order to understand where they are facing difficulties while learning. Understand their problems and provide the best solution for them to catch things better. A single…

I think a tutor should provide a fun, engaging and different approach to studying. A tutor should ask questions in a way a teacher hasn't got the time to do. They should always ask what the student wants and implement strategies as to how to attain these goals. But, perhaps at the forefront of responsibility, a tutor should always make sure the…

Tutors should be professional and respectable while building a rapport with their students. A tutor should be able to adapt to their students needs while being flexible and patient.

I believe that for a student, having someone who can understand and convey concepts in a relational way (not instructional) is so important to a true understanding of the content. When working with students, being a person of support and pushing where they can but not overwhelming the student is an integral aspect of their growth. Furthermore,…

A tutor has to talk to his students and listen to their problem. He has to understand that all students are not same and he has to think from the student's point of view.

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for their students is to help them fully grasp the content and have a deep understanding of it rather than just rote learning the syllabus. This allows students to problem-solve independently and approach and solve many different types of questions. The students can then bring the skills they have…

The most important skill a tutor can impart to a student is the method of reasoning. Often, students who struggle in logical subjects lack the skill to reason why a particular answer is correct or incorrect. I believe this reasoning can be developed with a tutor. A one-on-one interaction helps the tutor identify the missing links in the student's…

A tutor shouldn’t just repeat what a students been taught by their teacher.

Most important thing a tutor can do for a student is giving him lessons for life. For example rather than just teaching a subject, if a tutor can tell the student a better and effective way to study then that lesson will be useful to the student for a longer period of time. One more important thing for a tutor is to support his student. Subjects…

I love answering students' questions. That is when I can engage and inspire young students in adapting new technology and knowledge.

The tutors need to know what…

Local Reviews

Quality and experienced maths tutoring from Jes. This whole experience has been so personalised and streamlined and has given me such peace of mind. The first hour free was such a bonus. The phone call follow up from start to finish was great. I would not hesitate to recommend this tutoring service to anyone. My daughter was doubtful at first but there was an immediate change in her maths outlook for a great start to high school.

Inside FigtreeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Isla worked on simplifying fractions and understanding order of operations, also converting numbers to percentages.

For Year 9, Tom tackled algebraic expressions as well as survey-based questions from his worksheets.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Natalia focused on key concepts in algebra and completed final exercises with feedback to consolidate her skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student revising transformations in Maths skipped horizontal reflection and scaling, leading to confusion when new examples appeared—"he'll need to revisit these areas for clarity," the tutor noted.

In Year 2, one learner's sums suffered when she rushed through calculations, sometimes forgetting whether to add or subtract; homework showed improvement, but quiz settings brought back the habit.

Meanwhile, a tired Year 3 child lost focus during backwards counting, stalling progress with place value changes.

Across senior grades (Years 10–12), several students reviewed solutions only superficially before exams, leaving them unable to independently reconstruct steps under timed conditions.

Recent Achievements

A Figtree tutor recently noticed Annabelle, a Year 11 student, quickly grasped horizontal and vertical transpositions of x² graphs—something she'd hesitated with in earlier sessions.

Tyson (Year 9) made a shift from waiting for answers to recalling information himself when prompted, then applying it directly to questions without second-guessing.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student surprised her tutor by completing all her homework with zero mistakes after previously struggling to remember carrying tens during addition; she even tackled simple subtraction independently.

In the same week, Natalia worked through algebra problems on her own for the first time after initial uncertainty.

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 Eagle Vale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Figtree Heights Public School.
