According to me two most important principles in a tutor are patience and trust. Building trust makes the student feel comfortable enough to ask questions, make mistakes. Having patience also goes a long way in building that trust, so that the student can actually enjoy the learning process. I believe I can bring value to the role through my…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to create and maintain a safe and nurturing environment where the student is free to make and learn from their mistakes and are not afraid to ask for assistance when he/she needs additional help with the concept being taught. Therefore, this will be the environment that I will…

A successful teacher never lets a student feel like they cannot achieve their goals. The goal can be anything from solving a problem to passing the course or even their career goals.

Making sure that the student fully understands what was taught is the most important above all. A tutor should not just present a lesson and slip away. He should be more interactive, address the questions of the student, and give his best effort to repeat the parts not understood by the student in other simpler smart approaches. A tutor should…

To begin with, a tutor must encourage a student to do better and learn from previous mistakes. Getting upset/impatient with a student is only going to discourage the student and prevent him/her from reaching potential; and that's the opposite of the desired goal. In addition, confidence has to be built in a student; this way a student will be able…

Inside Old GuildfordTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ali practiced double-digit multiplication and division without remainders, and worked on converting fractions into decimals using number lines.

In Year 8, Sara focused on quadratic equations—factoring and solving for x—and reviewed how to convert lengthy word problems into solvable mathematical expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student James revised divisibility rules (by 2, 3, 5, and 10) alongside work on factors and multiples through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 Mathematics, one student's exam performance was affected by panic under time pressure—"he rushed the questions and did not check over his work before submission"—leading to repeated calculation errors that went unnoticed.

In Year 4 English, another learner often gave up when faced with complex vocabulary or unfamiliar storylines; as noted, "once he hits a 'hard' question that isn't similar to others he gives up."

For both students, incomplete homework in several weeks made it difficult to identify which concepts truly needed review.

Missed opportunities for self-checking and communicating confusion led to persistent gaps in understanding.

Recent Achievements

One Old Guildford tutor noticed a big shift in Younas, a high school student who now speaks up right away about what he doesn't understand—previously, he'd hesitate or keep quiet, but lately he's been quick to communicate confusion and work through tough concepts like fractions and averages.

Another high schooler, after struggling with test mistakes, took the initiative to review each error in detail and asked for specific practice next time.

Meanwhile, Andrew (primary) used to get stuck on reading tricky words but now reads aloud without giving up, explains new vocabulary using his own actions, and even uses those words in sentences.

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 Guildford Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Old Guildford Public School.
