Being able to teach a student enough material for them to be able to pass the class, that is what you are being paid to do. There are also many ineffible qualities that will set apart a good tutor from a great one. Such qualities include, understanding the student, being supportive of them and their emotions and ensuring the student is effectively…

Build interest. For younger student, most of them are still trying to find their interest in a certain field. The best thing I can do is to build interest with my humorous skill. Interest can lead students to an automatic learning mode, they will intake the related knowledge and digest them by themselves, and have the ability to do self-study,…

I believe that developing the learning capability of the student is the best thing a tutor can do because a tutor is only going to be there for a short run however their learning ability is going to assist and stick with them forever. I always make the students aware of what kind of questions can be asked while allowing them to take their time and…

Know your stuff. Always. As simple as it might sound, really bringing your students a reliable foundation of knowledge on the subject is always crucial. It doesn't mean that you ALWAYS have to know your stuff though, we are human, and human can sometimes afford not to know it all. This is when I would go on, do my research, and make sure the next…

A tutor needs to always be supportive. A student needs a tutor because (s)he wants help. Sometimes not getting a good result can be frustrating for them.

The most important goal for a tutor is to spark students' interest in the subject. Tutoring is not only about assisting with a student's grade. I do believe, though, that every student should find out what they are enthusiastic about. Due to my dual language proficiency in English and Chinese as an international student, I have experience…

I think tutors should be understanding to help them in the best way that they can, like being there for your students, not as a crutch but as someone who can amplify their learning. Teaching students concepts and filling gaps in their knowledge and learning techniques helps them create a strong foundation, which will help them build their…

The most important thing a tutor can do is give a student confidence in a subject they once hated or were afraid of and using that confidence to help them learn. Then once they want to learn more about the subject they may even love it as they are able to understand it. I am very patient, friendly and approachable. I have been tutored in the past…

Inside PasadenaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Priya focused on adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators using the lowest common multiple, along with simplifying fractions for clearer understanding.

For Year 8, Josh worked on coordinate geometry skills such as finding midpoints and tackling more complex problems involving plotting points and calculating distances between them.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Emily practised solving simultaneous equations using both substitution and elimination methods, alongside revising factorising trinomials to strengthen her algebra foundations.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, skipping steps when solving equations led to sign errors that only surfaced during feedback—one tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

For a Year 10 student working on probability (P(A | B)), uncertainty about symbol meanings and what should be placed in the numerator or denominator made multi-part questions harder to attempt.

In a Year 4 subtraction session, confusion with regrouping slowed progress; written work became hard to follow as calculations were squeezed together.

After setbacks in Year 11 trigonometry, confidence dipped and checking answers was avoided during practice.

Recent Achievements

One Pasadena tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to struggle with factorisation now confidently remembers each step and takes clear notes to track her process.

In Year 11, a student who often hesitated during statistics questions has started taking initiative—she recently collated her own cheat sheet for gradient and midpoint formulas, then applied them accurately in practice problems.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student made a big shift: instead of guessing when unsure about subtraction, she now talks through her thinking out loud until she finds where she went wrong and corrects it herself.

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 Blackwood Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Springbank Secondary College.
