I believe it is important to understand the student's weaknesses and strengths before starting to teach them. I have come across a common problem with students, which is that they often jump straight into trying to solve a problem without fully understanding the theory/basics first. Hence, I try to first help them understand the basics then go…

Besides grades, I would say that a tutor is also essentially teaching the student life skills such as responsibility and perseverance. I had this unmotivated student.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to believe in them.

Expanding on what I have written earlier, I think that one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is be prepared, and always willing to learn. I think this requires being a bit humble, and accepting that, even with something that may appear to be far below the tutor's learning, there may still be things that aren't known or have…

Besides helping them understand and learn a topic, the tutor should also help the student master the topic through mastery learning. Mastery learning is a way of designing units of work so that each set of tasks focuses on a particular learning objective and students must master a task to move onto the next one. The tutor should also help the…

Inside Lower MitchamTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Harry worked through solving probability problems using Venn diagrams and tree diagrams, including events without replacement.

In Year 10, Olivia practised quadratic graphing by finding x- and y-intercepts and the turning point for different equations.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ben focused on the basics of differentiation, tackling first principles as well as applying product, quotient, and chain rules to various functions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12 Specialist Maths, unclear working and untidy formatting ("needs to work on making formatting of questions clearer for examiner") led to errors compounding across multi-step calculus problems.

For a Year 10 science assignment, not gathering resources ahead of lessons meant lost time setting up instead of discussing ideas.

A Year 8 student's over-reliance on mimicking previous solutions in algebra caused repeated sign errors—"relies on previous problems' structure and copying it down."

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student often added when multiplication was required, particularly with larger numbers, resulting in confusion during worded perimeter tasks.

Recent Achievements

One Lower Mitcham tutor noticed a real change in a Year 11 student who, after struggling to connect chemistry assignments with class content, started referencing articles independently and wrote significant parts of each paragraph without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student who previously needed step-by-step guidance began tackling her maths homework solo—she finished most questions on her own and only asked for help with the trickiest two.

In primary sessions, Sarah used to hesitate when multiplying large numbers but now works through them with much less prompting and greater independence.

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 Mitcham Memorial Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Scotch College - Torrens Park Campus.
