A tutor should take their time with a student and make sure the student understands before moving on. I believe the purpose of tutoring should be to provide learning strategies that are specific to the individual in contrast with teaching in a classroom (at the pace of the class). A tutor should provide multiple strategies for learning. For…

I believe the most crucial thing that a tutor can do for their student is to encourage not only their understanding of a subject/topic but also their passion and enthusiasm for it. I believe that allowing a student to flourish in an environment tailored to them allows them to treat their studies less as a chore and more as a passion. This not…

I consider the ability to communicate in the student's eye level to be the essential as a tutor. For example, a tutor should be able to support students based on their level of education and motivation. My strength as a tutor is my ability to communicate and explain difficult concepts as simple as possible. Also, I take tutoring as an opportunity…

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…

A student will need a tutor because he/she couldn't understand what was being taught in class. The best thing for a tutor to do is focus on the parts that the student failed to understand and strengthen their understanding in those areas. Anybody's hold on Science is only as good as their understanding of the basics. So, it is best to focus on the…

I think that a tutor should not limit themselves to just subject knowledge. They should research more on effective teaching methods and strategies that might help them connect to their students more. They should develop practices that make a student's life easier and should understand the individual needs of the students. Often tutors have to…

As a tutor, it is very important that the teacher becomes an inspiration to the student.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to get a proper understanding of the level of mathematical 'maturity' of a specific student, rather than just assuming a certain background knowledge. Once this is established, it's possible to get the core of what exactly a student is struggling with (usually a particular fundamental concept) and…

Local Reviews

Watching my child's confidence improve as she develops her Math skills has been very rewarding.
Tracy, Oakden

Inside OakdenTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Ella worked on calculating the volume of rectangular prisms and revisited times tables for fluency.

Year 9 student Felix tackled algebraic expansion using index laws and completed practice questions on the business applications of percentages.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student William focused on rearranging formulas in algebra and converting numbers to scientific notation as part of his maths assignment.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student, when tackling algebraic expansion, "needed reminders to multiply—not add—terms inside brackets," leading to confusion with signs and incomplete simplification.

In Year 11 calculus revision, the habit of only practicing familiar quotient rule questions meant she missed opportunities to apply rules flexibly in new contexts.

A Year 7 student showed inconsistent attention to unit conversions; missing or mismatched units often crept into answers during multi-step measurement tasks.

Meanwhile, a primary student working on division sometimes left homework incomplete, making it harder to build reliable methods before moving ahead.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Oakden recently saw a Year 10 student who, after struggling to work independently, now completes linear equations on her own and only needs help with fraction-based questions—last week, she solved the final three without prompts.

Another high schooler, previously hesitant to speak up when stuck in chemistry, has begun jotting down key points herself and asks for clarification as soon as confusion arises.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once rushed through maths is pausing to double-check her working out before answering; last session, she caught and fixed her own mistake without any reminders.

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 Greenacres Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Heritage College Incorporated.
