One of the most important things a tutor can do for their students is teaching material in an innovative and engaging way, so that the student both understands important concepts as well as develops a keen interest in the subject being taught. The end goal is to help the student build confidence and become an independant learner in the subject. I…

A tutor should provide tailored help to each student by understanding their weaknesses and the areas which they find difficult to foster growth and improvement over time. This is synonymous with giving students strategies to be independent learners and more effective learners. Alongside this, a tutor can motivate a student through their…

MENTOR/TUTOR It is important that tutors have a friendly approach to students and make sure that students set a goal for every lesson. This way as a tutor we know that the student knows what is being taught and ensure the student understands the concepts. My strengths as a tutor are knowing the students' weaknesses of each area, and knowing…

The most important things a tutor can do is help students understand that being wrong or not being as fast or as good at studying is not a bad thing. A tutor must go at the students pace, not rush them and be patient as possible. Of course it is important to teach the students what they need but also help them grow and feel comfortable. I am very…

Actually engage and interact with the student to find where, and more importantly why they're struggling or need help. This not only is a short term solution to a single question which may be raised, but is extremely helpful in the long run as their problem solving skills and overall performance improves. Also, make sure the student actually…

Just being a support for the student in question.

The thing I consider to be a crucial thing a tutor can do for a student is to be understanding and having patience, as all students learn differently while also having various areas they exell and fail at, but having patience and understanding allows the students to feel comfortable with the tutor knowing the won't be judged for concepts they do…

One of the most important things tutor can do for a student is provide them with a lot of feedbacks as well as lots of revision. It is from feedback that students understand where they have been going wrong and how to improve on it. Revision is essential because knowing content is one thing, learning to apply them is another. From experience, I…

Local Reviews

Aaron was a great tutor and Rohan enjoyed his time with him.

Inside GlenfieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Daniel focused on circle area and perimeter, followed by practising volume of prisms using visual examples.

For Year 10, Priya worked through simultaneous equations and quadratic equations, applying these to exam-style questions.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Tom tackled logarithms alongside algebraic manipulation, with a focus on breaking down complex problems into manageable steps.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student struggled to create finance equations for loans, as noted: "needs to complete maths assignment and work more on financial maths questions," but had not completed key homework, making it hard to build fluency.

In Year 8 algebra, skipping written steps caused sign errors; a tutor observed "he must make his working out clear, and do all the steps before coming to his answer."

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student often left addition and subtraction tasks unfinished—sometimes forgetting materials—which slowed progress in class.

Confidence dropped when questions became difficult, leading one student to guess rather than show their thinking.

Recent Achievements

A Glenfield tutor noticed a big shift in one Year 10 student who used to make frequent mistakes on algebra problems; after practising clearer working out, he now finishes questions with fewer errors and actively asks for help when stuck instead of guessing.

In chemistry, a senior high school student surprised herself by independently tackling tough amide and amine exam questions she'd struggled with last term.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously hesitated to speak up started verbalising confusion during area lessons—she even tackled circle area questions enthusiastically and asked for extra practice without prompting.

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 Glenquarie Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Hurlstone Agricultural High School.
