I think making a student believe that hard work is more important than inherent ability when it comes to mathematics or any other field for that matter is probably the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. Patience and spotting where the student needs to…

I think the most absolute and important thing is to encourage a love of the learning process. This can come through your support and guidance as they learn how to persevere and solve things on their own. To do this, the tutor can work to create a comfortable learning environment where questions are ok, you can repeat as many times as necessary,…

I believe the greatest and most positive impact a tutor can have on a student is to build their confidence and introduce them to studying techniques so that they can self learn and achieve great marks on their own. Outside of tutoring can also provide a period of external motivation for students where they work through a series of problems and…

Let them make mistakes. Not give them the answer directly and encourage independent learning.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to motivate the student.

An amazing tutor goes beyond academic teaching to understand the unique emotional needs of their students.

In spite of this, I managed to be a tutor I have…

Inside GlebeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Chloe focused on solving algebraic equations by finding the value of x and practiced simplifying expressions, as well as working through percentage problems such as increasing or decreasing values and calculating GST.

In Year 9, Liam worked on ratios and rates with practical examples and was introduced to basic factorisation skills.

For a younger learner in Year 5, Emma strengthened her understanding of area calculations alongside strategies for division using visual models.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student missed a scheduled Zoom lesson, meaning they lost out on targeted feedback just before a key trigonometry assessment.

For one Year 11, "notes were disorganised and it was difficult to find the formulas for cosine rule when revising," which slowed down practice and led to confusion in test conditions.

In Year 8, errors in homework weren't reviewed, so similar mistakes kept appearing with ratios and percentages.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 learner's times tables practice focused only on familiar numbers—new patterns were avoided if they felt uncertain or slow, causing hesitation when solving multi-step word problems under time pressure.

Recent Achievements

One Glebe tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to show working now carefully explains each algebraic step aloud, especially when evaluating tricky fractions.

Another high schooler began the term making frequent errors with quadratic equations but recently completed an entire worksheet without needing hints—self-correcting two mistakes along the way.

For a younger learner in Year 4, times tables had been a real challenge, yet last session he jumped straight into practice questions and got nearly all of them right without prompting or counting on fingers.

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 Glebe Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St James Catholic Primary School.
