Helping a student visualize the portions they learn would be the best thing a tutor can do for a student. If a student is able to visualize a portion, the student will be able to learn the concept and use it to apply in various applications. Making a student fall in love with what they learn is the most important thing, as I experienced the same…

I think the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is be patient and try to bring themselves to the students own level of understanding of a topic in order to explain in a way that makes sense to the student. I think it's important that the student feels understood and is able to communicate what they don't understand, so that the…

A tutor should provide a space where students feel okay about asking questions and admitting when they're unsure. It's not just about giving answers, it's about helping students find solutions themselves. Encouraging students to see mistakes as learning opportunities is also key. Building their confidence in their own abilities is one of the most…

Be patient. Its critical that a tutor gives a student the time to process and understand what is being explains.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to listen and understand the student's learning style and being able to adapt accordingly. Students often learn at a different pace from each other and a tutor should understand when to slow down, when to speed up, or when to adjust the teaching style to suit the student's learning…

This is completely dependent on the student. Capable students may just need iteration on why this is important to learn coming from a peer rather than a guardian (something I would have benefited from as a student) to help with motivation. Other students may be motivated but lack someone who can teach in a format that they understand. I believe…

I believe that tutors must be good analyzers if they want to succeed. I mean that they have to examine the way students study and practice and even think. After a good observation, they can provide students with the tools with which students can improve their weaknesses. This can be different form one student to another one. Besides, Encouraging…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to listen to a student and never give up on them. Too easily teachers can be frustrated by students and give up on them, despite everyone finding different things difficult to understand. By listening to a student you can also ask them to first explain the concept to you. Often its just a…

I think that the best thing to do when tutoring is allow the students free rein when answering questions, as I have often found that almost all of their learning comes from when they make mistakes. I tend to try to give them only small nudges when getting them to complete a question, and reduce the amount of my interference over preceding…

Local Reviews

Karmel is fantastic. My daughter has responded really well in only the first few weeks. He is very patient and explains things at a level that she can understand. Her teacher has also noticed an improvement. She also likes him and doesn't protest when it comes to extra maths after school!

Inside O'ConnorTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Jimmy worked on rounding numbers using number lines and practiced long division with multi-digit numbers, reinforcing understanding through worksheets and visual aids.

Year 9 student Abbi focused on solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formula and tackled challenging problems involving surds and fractional indices.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Isabel revised trigonometry concepts, including perpendicular and parallel lines, and strengthened her grasp of simultaneous equations by completing exam-style practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 5 English, one student highlighted almost every word in a comprehension passage, making it hard to focus on key information—"he took considerable time to read because he highlighted almost every word."

In Year 7–8 Maths, repeated reminders were needed for one student to write down full working for multiplication and not just the answer; feedback on this was often overlooked.

A Year 10 student didn't review notes before lessons, which meant valuable lesson time was spent repeating prior material rather than progressing.

Meanwhile, a senior student struggled with organizing files and notes efficiently, slowing revision for tests.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in O'Connor noticed that Jimmy, who previously found rounding quite confusing, managed to complete a worksheet on his own this week and now applies the concept independently—just last session he needed step-by-step guidance.

In Year 10, Isabel made a significant leap in her recent maths exam, moving from 60% to 81%, especially impressing with her ability to tackle complex worded problems after initially struggling with them.

Abbi, working on quadratic equations in high school, went from needing frequent reminders to now solving standard quadratics quickly and without any help.

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 Willagee Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Caralee Community School.
