I find that offering consistent and reliable support is the most crucial thing a tutor can do, particularly to senior students. Knowing that learning and studying is a difficult and complex process, a tutor must be a mentor students can look to for guidance so that their goals are aligned. My strengths include my adaptability and patience where I…

Most important would definitely be effort towards a student. No student would want a tutor who does not have the best interest in them and would definitely not want a tutor who is giving 50% of their efforts. Another important thing a tutor can do for a student is show passion and that they care, and that they are someone the students can…

As a high school leaver, I consider providing support and trust as well as accurate academic knowledge to be the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student. Students do have teachers at school, therefore, the job of a tutor is to revise and trigger the knowledge of students, letting them realise their potential. I have physical and…

By letting a student explain the topic in their own words, I can diagnose the issue and perhaps offer a new perspective on how I…

In my perspective, a tutor must be able to properly assess the student's needs - whether they are struggling with eg multiplication, or understanding of algebra that make it hard for them to do harder questions, or even motivation or confidence issues, or comprehension problems, and to be able to adapt to these need/s of the students and improve…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them the formulaic way of how to study. There is a set procedure that is unique to every individual and subject of how to fully understand and apply various concepts. Once one is able to find that procedure and develop it, they are able to learn much more in their given subject. In…

Inside HeckenbergTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Ariana worked through index notation and square roots, focusing on the relationship between powers of two and square roots as well as solving equations involving these concepts, plus time conversion between hours and minutes in decimal form.

For Year 8, Josh practiced squaring numbers and finding square roots while also simplifying fractions and converting between hours and minutes.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Zara focused on long division by understanding terminology and process, alongside building habits like neatness in her maths book.

Recent Challenges

In Year 7 Mathematics, one student's written working was often unclear—long division steps were done mentally or skipped, making it difficult for her teacher to follow. As noted: "her answer is correct but her working out is confusing and may not be accepted by her classroom teacher."

Exam revision showed lost notes on angles led to confusion and incomplete answers.

Meanwhile, a primary student repeatedly left homework unfinished before lessons and struggled with times tables, slowing progress in division.

In English (upper primary), avoidance of reading tasks due to dislike meant key vocabulary wasn't reinforced, so comprehension questions remained challenging.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Heckenberg noticed Ariana now tackles long division questions on her own after previously needing reassurance and step-by-step help. She recently completed homework with zero mistakes and even chose to do extra problems independently.

Another high school student moved up to higher-level maths after excelling in his recent assessment; he maintained strong performance at the advanced level, showing real growth from earlier struggles.

In a primary session, Arabella overcame hesitation with rounding numbers—at first unsure, she worked through corrections and ended up getting every question right without support.

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 Miller Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Heckenberg Public School.
