The most important things a tutor can do for a student are to provide clear and effective explanations, offer encouragement and motivation, and foster a positive learning environment.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is really listen to the student and understand the specific challenges they’re facing. Often, the issue isn’t just the content itself, but how it's being approached or understood. By listening closely, a tutor can pinpoint where things are going wrong and adjust their teaching style accordingly.…

A tutor should be there to unlock the true ability of a student in my opinion.

I consider myself a generally patient tutor who can accommodate a wide set of students. Also, make sure to balance…

A great tutor does more than just teach—they empower, guide, and inspire students to reach their full potential. A tutor’s goal isn’t just to help with immediate challenges but to equip students with the skills to solve future problems on their own. Many students, especially women and minorities in STEM, face imposter syndrome. A great tutor…

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.
