Being a medical student, I value how education builds an individual. Having the right mentors and teachers during one's educational journey can either make or break them. Students look up to their mentors and tutors for various reasons. Students already interact with teachers at school, so they require a friend who understands their problems and…

A tutor should be strict about discipline but at the same time friendly and lenient understanding students problem. He should be available on phone all the time for his students during the exam period. Also, the tutor has to get some real-life problems and repeat the same basic concepts repeatedly so that the student memorises it for a long time.…

According to me the most important trait in a tutor is patience. It is not necessary that each child learns at the same pace. A tutor should also possess the ability to create and provide problem statements which help the student to get a grip over the topic. Along with a good speaker a tutor must be a good listener making the session more…

I believe it is most important for a tutor to tailor their teaching according to the needs of their student.

Inside KilkennyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Elousia built confidence with multiplication tables up to 12 and practiced clear, well-spaced handwriting while writing a book review using new vocabulary.

For Year 8, James focused on rearranging linear equations and inequalities as well as graphing linear equations by hand, then revised Pythagoras' theorem and square roots.

In Year 12 English, Sarah worked on structuring essays using TEEL paragraphs and planned ideas for her analysis of Fly Away Peter in preparation for exam conditions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 algebra, a student often skipped writing out working steps and relied on "just seeing the answer," as noted: "she needed constant reminding to show all rearranging processes." This led to hidden errors in equations.

A Year 7 learner was observed losing focus easily during geometry tasks, sometimes guessing answers rather than carefully thinking through them, resulting in repeated mistakes that were hard to trace back.

Meanwhile, in a primary-level maths session, incomplete workbook exercises meant gaps in basic skills persisted—one tutor reported having to finish problems together instead of moving forward.

Recent Achievements

One Kilkenny tutor noticed a Year 10 student who previously tended to guess at answers is now taking time to write out steps and check her work, especially on square root and rearrangement problems—showing much more care with process than before.

In a recent Year 7 session, a student who often hesitated to ask for help began talking through her thought process aloud when stuck, which helped her solve homework worded questions independently.

Meanwhile, an upper primary student has become confident recalling tricky times tables and now uses the bathroom wall chart at home to reinforce learning between lessons.

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 Whitefriars School.
