Confidence is the most important thing a tutor can bring to a student struggling with English. Knowledge and new skills can be taught to anyone, but a tutor should be able to instil a confidence within student so they can bring these skills into their learning but also into their everyday life. This is achieved by building relationships with…

Helping students become the best they can possibly be, allowing them to build confidence, and become independent learners. All in all, tutors should be the extra boost a student needs to achieve exactly what they want to.

The number one most important thing a tutor can do for a student is make sure that the student builds a strong understanding of the content. There is a difference between knowing how to work out a problem, and why a problem is solved the way it is. I think that when you understand the why instead of just how it becomes very simple to complete…

I believe that tutors must have a good attitude and genuinely enjoy the concepts and the subject. Without this, the student will most likely find the tutoring bland and boring, which would reduce their engagement and their overall performance and knowledge in the subject. My experience as a tennis coach has shown me how different students learn at…

I think that some tutors get caught up in focusing solely on the work in front of them and miss out on teaching younger students about the life in front of them. Instead of doing more work, tutors should provide organisation tips and possible strategies they can put in place to improve the quality of their work. Also, forming close relationships…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to teach them how to teach themselves. Instead of spoon-feeding students the answers to specific questions, a good tutor helps students understand how to think to devise a solution for any problem they encounter. Being only 18 years old and currently in Year 12, I thoroughly…

Motivating a student is arguably even more important. Any assistance is meaningless if an individual doesn't have a desire to learn. Helping a student to understand what they want to learn and why is the thing I value above all as a teacher. I feel that I have a firm grasp on mathematics that would be useful to share with others. I have a desire…

A tutor MUST make the student comfortable with their learning by building a friendship with them, so that they always want to return to EZY Math Tutoring. A tutor must also put aside everything else in their life to assist the student: even if I have a bad day I cannot let that lessen my performance while teaching the student. Finally, a tutor…

I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to make learning engaging and make student love the subject. Math formulas can sometimes seem boring, it's crucial for a tutor to interpret math in an interesting way. By doing so, students are more likely to develop a passion for math and experience the rewarding feeling that…

As a tutor, the most important thing is to "preach". Tutors who don't know how to "preach" often only focus on academic matters, which can easily lead to intensified conflicts between teachers and students. The premise of "preaching" is to establish a harmonious teacher-student relationship. I think there are three key points, that is, to be more…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to actually listen to their student. If they are not being receptive to feedback, and the student is not learning, then there is no progress being made. Rather, there has to be an active conversation between tutor and student that helps communicate the student's needs. I think I'm really receptive to a…

1. A tutor can shape how a student thinks about a particular topic/subject. If while teaching something the tutor himself/herself is not interested then the student will be less likely to pay 100% attention 2.

The goal of tutoring should be to empower students and thus the primary focus of tuition should be to develop confidence and independence rather than reliance.

Local Reviews

We and our son Charlie, are very happy with Griffith’s tutoring.
Samantha

Inside IronbankTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Mia worked through **fractions** and practiced both division and multiplication, with real-world currency examples to strengthen understanding.

In Year 11, Ethan focused on **trigonometric equations** and explored applications within circular geometry using step-by-step diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sarah tackled **integration techniques** and investigated how particles move in magnetic fields as part of her advanced physics studies.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student hadn't completed enough revision between sessions, which meant when it came time for his physics and maths tests, he was less confident choosing the right equations ("Hadn't done much revision between our last two sessions so needs to get plenty done…").

In Year 9, a student understood new algebra concepts during lessons but struggled with homework independently—this gap showed up especially when facing unfamiliar problem types at home.

A primary student repeatedly mixed up cents and dollars in money questions; even after practice, these small misunderstandings lingered into weekly homework.

Recent Achievements

One Ironbank tutor noticed a Year 9 student who, after weeks of hesitating to ask for help, started openly explaining how she solved maths problems aloud rather than working quietly in her head.

In Year 11 physics, a student showed real initiative by increasing his own revision time before upcoming tests—he arrived with self-made notes and could clearly outline where he needed more practice.

Meanwhile, a primary student who'd previously guessed at division questions is now pausing to use the correct steps and finished all ten problems without errors for the first time.

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 Stirling Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Scott Creek Primary School.
