To encourage them to keep going and not give up, because it can get really upsetting to the student if they can't understand a specific thing after some time spent on it. It's important to reassure them that the progress they've made so far has been good and worthwhile, and that everyone's learning paces are different. Most importantly, it's…

I believe that getting high grades in school is not the most important goal for my student (although this is something we work towards), but rather what is most important for me as a tutor is to see them learn, progress and improve each time. I want to teach them the value of hard work while building up their confidence and motivation to tackle…

One of the most crucial things a tutor can do for a student is communicate with them so they comprehend the material. I see a lot of teachers that know a great deal about a subject but don't know how to express it effectively enough for everyone to understand. As a tutor, I feel that the most essential thing is to ensure that the students…

As a tutor you can provide a child/student with a different outlook on their learning. For example, their school teacher may have explained it in a way that the child didn't particularly understand, and as a tutor you can give them a more unique and individual learning experience that they wouldn't get at school. Providing children with one-on-one…

A tutor has to be patient and welcoming for their students. The reason these students come for tutoring is because they face difficulty keeping up with school. So they should be given the space to understand at their own pace, in their own method and a teacher needs to recognize that. We need to recognize the method which we choose to teach a…

Local Reviews

All in all the tutoring has gone well. My son has increased his skills and is now performing well.
Toby, Redwood Park

Inside Redwood ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Olivia focused on simplifying surds and practiced algebraic factorisation, working through examples using the null factor law.

Year 11 student Lucas explored exponential growth and decay models, along with understanding logarithms in relation to these functions.

For Year 7, Ethan strengthened his grasp of surds and worked on operations with fractions for greater confidence in calculations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student preparing for a biology exam did not act on written feedback from a mock test, repeating avoidable errors in homeostasis explanations. "He skipped reviewing corrections before the mini-assignment," noted one tutor, so misconceptions persisted into practice tasks.

In Year 8 mathematics, another student brought only partial notes and forgot a calculator, which meant extra time was spent searching for resources instead of focusing on algebraic basics.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner hesitated to attempt unfamiliar fraction problems without guidance—confidence dipped when answers weren't immediate. The moment slipped: new strategies were left unexplored that day.

Recent Achievements

One Redwood Park tutor noticed a Year 11 biology student who previously hesitated to review practice questions now working through past exam papers on her own, even requesting extra short-answer homework for revision.

A Year 8 maths student, who had struggled to remember the steps in fraction simplification, started arranging and linking fractions with decimals without prompting—showing she's recalling prior methods more independently.

In primary sessions, a Year 3 boy who would often skip tricky double-digit additions now shows all his working out on paper and checks his answers before moving on.

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 City of Tea Tree Gully Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Redwood Park Primary School.
