The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to put in time. They need to act as if it's not just a job which pays. Prepping lessons early, helping with questions outside of tutoring time, marking tests. All of these examples show a great tutor. - I put a lot of care into my work. - I love seeing others thrive through my help. - I…

I think that a tutor should not limit themselves to just subject knowledge. They should research more on effective teaching methods and strategies that might help them connect to their students more. They should develop practices that make a student's life easier and should understand the individual needs of the students. Often tutors have to…

As a tutor, it is very important that the teacher becomes an inspiration to the student. The passion with which the tutor teaches the student matters a lot and this also influences the students influence on the subject. When a tutor teaches the student with passion, the student is definitely going to like the subject and learn with full passion as…

Tutors needs to deliver their fullest in educating the student. They need to have the patience to redirect from the main concept in focus to teach the fundamentals which the student lacks the knowledge.

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make them want to study a topic, to present a topic in a certain way that makes the student more enthusiastic to learn.

The most important things a tutor can do for a student go beyond simply reviewing homework. A tutor must make sure the student truly understands the 'why' behind the concepts, especially in subjects like Math, Chemistry, and Biology.

Inside HendonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ava practised multiplication with fractions and worked on telling time to the quarter hour.

In Year 9, Emily focused on factorising quadratic expressions and revisited expanding algebraic expressions for clarity.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Daniel explored trigonometric ratios using calculator techniques and solved angle of elevation problems by sketching diagrams for visual understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student was frequently reminded to double-check her maths work but continued to skip this step during quizzes, leading to repeated "silly mistakes" despite knowing the content.

In Year 11 algebra sessions, over-reliance on mental calculations meant steps weren't written out—"too much done in her head," as one tutor observed—which led to confusion and hidden errors when negative signs appeared.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner admitted she hadn't practiced any assigned homework that week; when asked about fractions and time conversions, gaps showed quickly. These moments left lessons focused on re-covering basics instead of building new skills.

Recent Achievements

One Hendon tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to rush through SOHCAHTOA problems now pausing to check each step and catching small errors on her own.

In a senior session, a Year 12 student who once hesitated to ask for help began preparing questions in advance, using them to clarify trickier calculus concepts—she finished most textbook tasks without needing prompts.

Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 4 went from guessing time questions to confidently drawing clocks with the correct times and explaining her reasoning out loud before moving on to more advanced worded problems.

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 Civic Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Hendon Primary School.
