First of all, a tutor needs to build the teacher-student relationship in order to build trust and comfort in the learning space. A tutor should never see a student as weak, but rather, should see a student as progressive. A tutor should encourage and properly guide the student to better comprehend concepts in the subject being taught. A tutor…

Personally, I think it is important to boost students' confidence in their abilities by providing positive reinforcement and constructive feedback. Additionally, promote analytical thinking and problem-solving skills rather than just memorisation of facts. And finally, offer emotional support and encouragement, helping students manage stress and…

Be kind and patient with them. Do not ever be the reason that they stop believing in their abilities. Encourage them to try and figure things out independently and then ask for help when needed. Be mindful so that students believe in themselves. I am kind and patient. I always remind myself that just because I know something does not mean…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to spark their interest and imagination. When students are genuinely curious and engaged, learning becomes more meaningful and enjoyable. Beyond helping them understand content, a great tutor encourages students to think critically, ask questions, and explore ideas independently.…

The most important things a tutor can do could be split into two parts. Academically, tutors are there to help the student to learn all the knowledge required for them to achieve better grades. Spiritually, tutors are there as mentors, which they need to encourage the student to achieve their full potential, because usually due to exam pressure,…

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. He wouldn't complete the homework that I had given him and often fell asleep in class. I started to find out the reason behind his behavior and I used it to my advantage, Over…

I think the most important role of the tutor is to analyse and reflect on a student's learning and problem-solving approach methods, in order to provide meaningful adjustments for greater comfort and confidence going forward. In other words, the identification of barriers to learning is the most crucial point of a tutor's action, as it is the…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for the students is to motivate and encourage them to do their best.

The number one most important thing a tutor can do for a student is make sure that the student builds a strong understanding of the content.

My tutoring is going great, Rory is awesome and I'm very happy with the way things are going. Feeling so much better about my maths already.
Belinda, Oaklands Park

Inside Oaklands ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Ava focused on ordering decimal numbers to three places and practiced NAPLAN numeracy questions involving whole number place value up to one million.

Year 6 student Oliver revised the terminology and equivalence of improper fractions and mixed numbers, as well as compared decimal numbers to three decimal places.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Sophie worked through converting metric units of measurement and developed strategies for long multiplication with multi-digit numbers.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4 maths, a student showed ongoing confusion with place value boards, especially labelling columns from hundredths to hundred thousands—this led to misplacement of numbers during decimal tasks.

For a Year 7 learner, messy working in algebra meant "the distributive law steps were hard to track," causing repeated errors when substituting into expressions.

A senior student in Year 10 often revised only familiar fraction types and avoided tackling new equivalence problems; this narrowed progress before assessments.

One student's reluctance to attempt challenging reading comprehension in English limited exposure to higher-order questions, making it difficult to build confidence with inference skills.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Oaklands Park noticed a real shift with Brooke, a high school student, who used to rely on calculators for tricky maths but now chooses to solve algebraic equations and convert fractions herself—she's even started checking her work without prompting.

Another secondary student, Maelie, previously hesitant with long division, is now working through multi-step problems independently and using the correct vocabulary when explaining each stage.

Meanwhile, Jye (primary) surprised his tutor by reading aloud new narrative texts with strong self-correction skills and pausing for punctuation—something he avoided last term.

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 Cultural Centre Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Christ the King School.
