I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to teach them to learn for themselves. It is easy to rote memorize a formula or a text, but to be able to teach someone how they can teach themselves and to show them how to problem solve so that they can attack problems independently is far more valuable I believe my strengths as a…

A tutor needs to be able to make sessions engaging and enjoyable so their students will want to come back to each lesson. They need to also be able to be someone students can trust and feel comfortable with as they do spend a lot of time together.

The most important thing a tutor can do is to make the student feel at ease with the subject at hand, especially to the point where they begin their own individual methods of inquiry into the subject. A student should never feel under pressure to perform in ways that make them feel discouraged about their own abilities. The consequence of that is…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to provide an individualised approach as this leads to an optimal learning environment and thus maximises the student's chance at success. Without an individualised approach, communication issues can arise which can lead to a lack of content understanding and sense of failure from the…

Inside RedfernTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Lily worked through perimeter and multiplication skills, using both traditional exercises and interactive math games to boost engagement.

For Year 7, James focused on algebraic expressions including expanding like terms as well as powers, practicing with step-by-step examples.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Priya developed her understanding of probability concepts and direct versus indirect proportionality, applying these ideas to real-world scenarios for clearer comprehension.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, difficulty was observed with setting out clear lines of reasoning when tackling probability problems; as one tutor put it, "she knows the subject well, but has trouble putting together the line of reasoning."

In a Year 7 lesson on fractions and division by decimals, written working sometimes became messy or incomplete, making it harder to identify where confusion arose.

A senior student avoided showing all steps in algebraic expansions during revision, which led to repeated sign errors and slower progress.

When reviewing multiplication tables (Years 3–5), some learners relied heavily on verbal recall instead of written practice, slowing mastery.

Recent Achievements

A Redfern tutor noticed a Year 11 student who initially struggled to explain her reasoning in probability is now confidently breaking problems into logical steps before solving them.

In Year 8, Sara recently showed real initiative during algebra—she now asks for extra practice with combining like terms, instead of waiting for direction, which marks a big shift from her earlier passivity.

Meanwhile, Lily in primary school has started double-checking her answers on complex fraction and area questions without being prompted; just last week she chose to rework a perimeter problem until every step matched the question's requirements.

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 Waterloo Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Inner Sydney High School.
