A tutor should be able to establish rapport and trust by being honest. This is the critical element to a successful tutoring relationship. Being patient is also very important as what might be obvious and easy for a tutor may not be for that student. Being a good listener is another essential characteristic that a tutor must-have, as it's vital to…

In my opinion, the tutor must be able to make ideas more basic for the student, which is the most effective way to teach someone. You can’t teach someone rocket science if they can’t do linear equations, so first teach them linear equations. Also often a student has an easier way of understanding than a teacher has given them, and so it helps…

Ultimately, I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is instill self-confidence within the student, positively change a student's view and approach toward learning, and assist in improving student academic performance. In my opinion, a tutor is more likely to achieve these positive student outcomes if they are consistently: - Honest,…

Not feed students with tons of information, instead, help them on what they are struggling with and don't treat them in a way a traditional teacher does to a student. It is always better to be friendly with the students. Well-behaved and positive, so it makes easier for other people to communicate with me. I liked maths a lot since i was in…

I believe that motivating the student and pushing them to do better is very important in tutoring. I also believe that the answer shouldn't be given without effort from the student and the working out is extremely important for understanding the subject.

Also, the possibility of giving online lessons might be a good idea for the student to schedule the classes.

Cultivate in them the love for learning, and motivate them to study to fulfil their utmost potential. I also want them to see that the results are not what is the most important, but at the end of the day that they have learnt something, and can apply it in their studies or do the same thing for someone else. I am patient in teaching children, not…

For me, it is very important to keep students motivated by celebrating their achievements, no matter how big or how small to make them know that we appreciate their efforts. This can be as simple as praising the students for solving a difficult problem or for making improvement in their grades. I believe this will help students build their…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to encourage the student in their studies. And I think the best way to encourage a student to enjoy learning, and to excel, is to make learning and performing well, fun. And to do that, I believe it's intrinsically finding learning fun yourself, whilst being a strong role model for the…

I feel the most common issue holding students back is a lack of confidence on their own ability to complete their work to a level they would find satisfactory.

Inside Highgate HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Tahlia focused on integrating trigonometric functions and evaluating sine and cosine at various angles, then practiced applying general rules for integration and explored 'integration by recognition' using past exam-style questions.

For Year 10, Olivia worked through index laws, simultaneous equations, and Pythagoras' theorem via targeted problem sets from a practice exam sheet.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Henry tackled surface area calculations for prisms and applied the Pythagorean theorem to measurement problems directly linked to his homework tasks.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 mathematics, one student tended to "rush getting through problems," leading to incomplete understanding of methods and less clarity in answers—this became apparent during algebra practice.

For a Year 12 physics assignment, another student struggled to translate graphical information into written analysis; not all details were clearly explained in the report.

In multiple senior math sessions, back checking work for small errors was missed—one tutor noted, "she almost solved the question perfectly but simply made small algebraic errors." Without this habit, time was spent fixing avoidable mistakes rather than tackling more advanced problems or exam strategies.

Recent Achievements

A Highgate Hill tutor recently noticed Tahlia, a senior student, taking charge of her physics experimental report—she not only analysed her results thoroughly but also explained the experiment's limitations independently, something she previously struggled to articulate.

In another session, Lauren in Year 11 tackled advanced trigonometric graphing: after guided practice, she could identify all key parameters from a graph and sketch transformations herself rather than waiting for step-by-step help.

Meanwhile, Ella, who'd changed schools mid-term, asked directly for a refresher on missed maths content instead of passively sitting through confusion; by lesson's end she was confidently solving problems again.

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 West End Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Laurence's College.
