This is very important, especially in maths and science subjects, the key for students to improve is by really understanding and the best way to check is to are they able to explain it back to you on another day, not to memorize by hard, maths also not…

I feel tutors need to provide constructive feedback for the students, especially in an English essay for example. They need to give them specific help in areas they are struggling in by identifying their strengths and weaknesses. Tutors also need to help students stay on top of task, help them complete assignments in time, this means they need to…

A tutor can explain the main concept, however,the related questions must be solved by the student itself as it promotes the concept of self-learning. As a tutor, I can sometimes unkowingly become their biggest cheerleader and that could really help them overcome any emotional stress that could become a hindrance in their studies. Therefore, a…

I believe that a tutor should make a student feel safe enough that they ask as many questions as they need to ask in order to fully understand a topic. A tutor should encourage the student to believe in their own abilities and develop the student's confidence to allow them to eventually approach and solve problems on their own. I believe this type…

If a student is not able to understand the concept, a tutor should change pedagogy.

I assert that successful tutors are able to build strong relationships with their students as it personalizes learning.

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is creating lesson plans and methods based around that student.

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.
