A student approaches a tutor outside school just so they can understand the subject in a better way. As a tutor, I believe that the most important thing I can do for my students is to make them trust in me and eventually the subject because only then they would put in efforts to overcome their difficulties. As a tutor, I am responsible enough to…

I think that being able to build a rapport with the student is one of the fundamental skills to be a good tutor. This lays the foundation for the student being comfortable in asking questions to the tutor, as well as the tutor finding a teaching style that is most suited to the student. I am confident in my ability to explain subject matter to the…

I believe that listening to the student is among the most important things a tutor can do. It is imperative that the student feels comfortable to share concepts that they feel unfamiliar with, therefore building a relationship with them is crucial. Having a good understanding of the student's optimal way of learning is also beneficial to the…

According to me, the most important thing as a tutor is to try and try until the student understands, although it takes a lot of patience and time. It is also important to explore the student's best way of learning, which may include audio, visual, or kinesthetic, and make efforts to teach them accordingly. As a tutor, I first make my students…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to put in time. They need to act as if it's not just a job which pays. Prepping lessons early, helping with questions outside of tutoring time, marking tests. All of these examples show a great tutor. - I put a lot of care into my work. - I love seeing others thrive through my help. - I…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is pose as their mentor than just a teacher. By doing this, a student will feel safe, and empowered; this in turn will make them learn better. Moreover, it is important for a tutor to build their confidence. It is essential to build on the weak areas of a student. Additionally, a…

I believe the most important thing here would be to ensure the student understands what is being taught and is able to move forward in their learning.

A tutor should create a safe space for a student so that he/she can reach out whenever needed. Through this, a student will feel more comfortable in his/her studies and will acquire more confidence since they will have the opportunity to be more inquisitive. They will be more eager to learn and explore. My biggest strength as a tutor is patience.…

For example, as I am a visual and auditory learner, I learn most efficiently by watching lectures and videos and less…

It is very important as a tutor to understand your student. Be his silent friend and connect with him. Read his mental abilities, his interest, observe his qualities and disabilities, his way of learning things. And then try to impart the teaching depending on all these factors. Each student is different and so is the method of teaching. Teaching…

Inside Payneham SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Pranavi worked on multiplying and dividing decimals by 10, 100, and 1000 as well as solving worded questions involving fractions and reviewing area and perimeter of quadrilaterals with decimals.

In Year 8, Milly tackled converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages along with practising division and order of operations.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Harrison focused on solving quadratic equations using the null factor law in preparation for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student sometimes avoided writing out steps when working with algebraic expressions, which led to confusion about signs and coefficients—"she wrote 3y as 3 + y," a tutor noted, causing calculation errors.

In Year 7, one student's maths book showed layout issues: answers were jumbled and place value columns not lined up during grid multiplication, making it hard to spot mistakes until much later.

Meanwhile, a primary student hesitated to answer worded questions in English, often skipping them or providing only brief responses; this meant missed opportunities for feedback and growth in comprehension skills.

Recent Achievements

One Payneham South tutor noticed Milly now self-corrects her mistakes when working with algebraic expressions—last week, she spotted and fixed an error without prompting, something she hesitated to do before.

In a recent high school maths session, Harrison started showing all his steps for trigonometry problems after previously skipping working out; he even remembered the equations for sine and cosine with less guidance than usual.

Meanwhile, in primary English, Naba has begun tracing numbers 2–4 and 6–9 independently instead of waiting for direction—a real change from earlier lessons where she needed step-by-step 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 Payneham Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Joseph's School.
