I think respect is very important. When the students ask questions, the tutor should help students understand and think from the perspective of the them, rather than belittle them. My advantage is that I grew up in a Chinese-style education system where math is very important to Chinese people and we have a lot of unique tricks for learning math,…

Help them improve their grades. I think throughout this process, you want them to understand what they're doing. Make sure they understand the concepts behind math formulas and such. However, ultimately I believe the most important thing is to see that being transferred and applied on grades and seeing evidence of improvement. I have…

Often times I've found that a lot of students struggle with certain parts in learning but don't speak up about them because of being afraid. In light of this, I believe the most important things a tutor can do is be the more proactive party in this situation - which should go without saying. Observing your student and noting down what difficulties…

A tutor can help a child open up their personality and provide them with confidence as well as knowledge. The tutor can help the child decide its future and help him shape his opinion.

Tutors should be able to aid students with all problems, without simply giving them the answer. The ability to problem-solve, as well as help the student find solutions is much, much more important than simply answering questions. I come from a very large family, which I believe has enhanced my skills of collaboration and teamwork which are vital…

Personally, being adaptable and flexible in your teaching is the most important thing a tutor can do for any student. As individuals, we all learn at a different pace through a variety of mediums. Hence, it is important to easily recognise this and cater your teaching for each student. This creates a personalised and catered experience which is…

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.

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.
