Encouragement and motivation are two of the biggest qualities that make or break a tutor; a tutor should be able to provide positive reinforcement to their students and support them all the way. Another important note is that a tutor should be versatile and adaptable, for not every child is the same, and it falls upon the tutor to make sure that…

I believe it is really important that a tutor is able to communicate well, encourage and understand the primary needs of their students. The tutor should then be able to think of many different and useful strategies to help the student learn. It is very important the tutor brings a sense of fun to the lesson, to urge the student to want to learn…

Everything is going well with tutoring. Our daughter Imogen really enjoys her weekly sessions with Amber. The tutoring has made her far more confident with her Maths.

Inside Kingston ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Olivia focused on multiplication facts for x3 and x5 as well as subtraction of decimal numbers to two places with exchanging, and began learning about metric prefixes in measurement.

For Year 9, Thomas revised further differentiation using the chain, product, and quotient rules—applying these to find tangents and identify where functions are undefined—and practiced calculus questions set in worded contexts.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sarah tackled physics topics such as projectile motion by breaking velocity into vertical and horizontal components and finished with a quick review of conservation of momentum.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student's notes highlighted a struggle to remember formulas during complex differentiation and physics tasks; when unsure, he relied on "having the formula written down" rather than committing it to memory.

In another session, the same student rushed through multi-step algebra questions, which led to sign errors—"he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student became distracted during subtraction practice and lost focus for the last part of the lesson, making it hard to finish worded problems.

Both cases show that gaps in process—not content knowledge alone—are affecting progress.

Recent Achievements

One Kingston Park tutor noticed that Thomas, a senior high school student, now independently applies the chain, product, and quotient rules to complex differentiation problems—something he struggled with previously.

In another session, Stephen in Year 10 started double-checking his answers without prompting and can now confidently tackle rate calculations using real-world examples like $/hour or km/h.

Meanwhile, Jye in primary school has shifted from hesitating with oral reading to using word attack strategies when stuck; this week he read through "Cup Final Hero" out loud and self-corrected new vocabulary as he went.

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 Brighton Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Seacliff Primary School.
