A tutor must be able to commit to providing all the correct resources and help that a student needs. They should be patient with the student, understand learning patterns and be able to deliver information in simple terms. Tutors should also never judge but instead approach every problem in a friendly and helpful manner, as this will maintain an…

The most important thing for a tutor is to provide a fun learning environment for the student and empower them to learn. A tutor should be able to motivate the students to organise, formulate study goals and most importantly self learn and self improve.

I consider the tutors passion and enthusiasm towards a subject can have a positive impact on how the student receives the information. When a tutor is enthusiastic on the content they are teaching, this transfers to the student. I am patient and try to break down complex content ideas into manageable ideas. From experience, I have learnt this is…

I believe it is most important for a tutor to tailor their teaching according to the needs of their student. Many students learn in different ways such as visual or through different compounding activities to build a strong foundation before moving on to more difficult concepts. I believe being able to teach a student in the way that is most…

A student approaches a tutor outside school just so they can understand the subject in a better way.

As a tutor, I am responsible enough to…

Local Reviews

Chloe gets along very well with Huey & has told us she feels much better already.
Ron, Northfield

Inside NorthfieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student completed a review of 2-5 times tables and worked on reading comprehension.

Year 9 student Amber practised drawing linear graphs for trebuchets and determined the standard form of linear equations (y=mx+c).

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Mia focused on quadratic problem solving by applying the quadratic formula to perimeter problems and revisited completing the square using guided examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student's working out in algebra was described as "messy and hard to follow," with missed steps leading to sign errors—especially when expanding or simplifying (a+b)^2 expressions.

In Year 11, a lack of preparation for trigonometry tasks showed up when key formulas were missing from the cheat sheet; this left the student unsure about when to use cosine versus SOHCAHTOA.

One primary-level learner often guessed answers rather than working through multiplication tables, slowing recall and lowering confidence after mistakes.

When tired, a senior maths student made repeated errors calculating with negatives, compounding confusion during Pythagoras questions.

Recent Achievements

A Year 10 student, who used to need frequent reminders, came prepared with specific questions already circled and managed to keep strong focus during an extended lesson—something that's been tricky before.

In Year 8 maths, another student showed new independence by applying indices laws without prompting and correctly recalling area formulas learned earlier this year.

Meanwhile, a younger student has started reciting their 2x tables smoothly and is making clear progress on the 3x tables after struggling to remember them in past sessions.

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