It is very important as a tutor to understand your student. Be his silent friend and connect with him. Read his mental abilities, his interest, observe his qualities and disabilities, his way of learning things. And then try to impart the teaching depending on all these factors. Each student is different and so is the method of teaching. Teaching…

Become students’ friends so you can lead the children to the book, most students don’t want study because the teacher is too strict and always pushing them, if the tutor can become their friends, they can lead the student to study voluntary.

I believe that a tutor should be able to build relationships with a student where the students are provided with an environment where they are heard and observed. I think this allows tutors to strategize methods in helping students progress, learn and succeed. This must be done with patience, constant assessment of student's progress, and…

Inside Gepps CrossTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student James worked through coordinate geometry concepts such as finding gradients and midpoints, alongside algebra skills like solving equations with negative indices.

Year 10 student Priya focused on trigonometry basics—including sine and cosine rules—using diagrams to reinforce understanding, and also practiced factorising quadratic equations.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ella covered matrices multiplication and applied Dijkstra's Algorithm for shortest path problems in networks, preparing for her upcoming maths test.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 mathematics, a student repeatedly left working out incomplete during algebra tasks—"he could leave some space between working out to allow himself to easily back track and find the error," one tutor observed, leading to confusion when errors arose.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student in calculus struggled with test timing; anxiety about finishing meant skipped checks and missed marks on Product Rule questions.

For a Year 10 learner, forgotten summary sheets made it difficult to recall trigonometric identities in revision.

After setbacks, another senior student lost focus quickly, making it harder to recover understanding from previous sessions.

Recent Achievements

One Gepps Cross tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously struggled with rearranging algebraic equations now independently solves for different variables without prompting, showing clear progress in self-reliance.

In a recent high school session, another student tackled complex trigonometric identities after initially needing step-by-step guidance—now, he identifies which formulas to use for problem solving on his own.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student mastered distinguishing between prime and composite numbers by confidently applying continuous division, whereas before she would hesitate and guess at random. Last week, she picked out all the primes from her worksheet correctly.

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 Enfield Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Gabriel's School.
