I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to create a comfortable environment where they feel safe asking any question, no matter how small, and to make learning an enjoyable experience. It’s also essential to build their confidence by helping them understand their strengths and develop the skills they need to succeed.…

The best thing a tutor can do is leave a student with the tools, knowledge and confidence to continue advancing their academic career without relying on the tutor or teachers. I'm quite smart but also good at talking and listening to people. I see one of my strengths as being able to articulate an idea in a simple way, especially with Economics,…

A tutor can make a student love the subject he/she hates. The most important thing for a tutor is to understand the student, his/her interests, aptitude, and what he/she is inclined towards. If you have a basic idea of the student mindset you can develop techniques to make them understand the subject in a way they don't find it hard. Gamification…

Listening to their questions, as many children are too scared to ask questions in class, and I hope to provide them a safe space for this. I also think it's important to be flexible, to work with what the kids need. Especially with younger children, who may not necessarily know what exactly they're struggling with. - Patience - Good understanding…

More important than the content is the environment a tutor can create. By reciting the book's content, I might be able to help the student pass their grade. However, by making the student get good at learning and understanding abstract concepts, one makes them capable of tackling any subject. This is the most importat thing a tutor can do for a…

Tutoring with Hai Lun has been wonderful. My daughter adores her and her teaching style is outstanding.
Anne

Inside KingstonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Charlotte worked on exponents and squaring, as well as reinforcing understanding of equal fractions through targeted review.

In Year 8, Ethan focused on BODMAS and applying exponent rules in calculation practice.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mia revised matrix operations—including addition, subtraction, and scalar multiplication—and tackled related problem-solving questions to deepen her grasp of matrices in context.

Recent Challenges

A Year 4 student struggled to recall multiplication tables, which slowed progress on word problems—"8's and 7's are still a bit tricky," as noted during arithmetic drills.

In Year 9 algebra, one learner skipped setting out steps when solving equations, making it hard to spot sign errors or understand where confusion started.

A Year 11 student avoided writing full working in calculus revision, hesitant to attempt unfamiliar questions without prompting; this often meant strong ideas didn't translate into marks under timed conditions.

Meanwhile, a senior physics student sometimes relied heavily on calculator checks rather than building confidence with manual rearrangement of equations.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Kingston noticed that a Year 11 student, who previously hesitated with rearranging equations, is now independently spotting her own errors and correcting them without prompting.

Another high schooler recently began openly identifying which topics feel tricky for her, a shift from past sessions where she rarely voiced uncertainties—she's now quick to grasp core concepts once discussed.

In the middle years, one student used to rush through worded problems but has started pausing to break down each step methodically before answering. Last week, he completed all ten assigned questions accurately by applying this new approach.

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 Kingston Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Telopea Park School.
