Firstly, I believe the philosophy of "Teaching to fish rather than giving a fish. " It suggests that the tutor has a responsibility to inspire her students to take further exploration in the subject and cultivate good learning habits. Secondly, I think encouragement is essential in tutoring. Being as a tutor, I would let my student know that they…

One of the most important things that a tutor can do for students is help them find what they are learning is full of fun. Interest is the best teacher. When students like a subject, they are more willing to put in more time to practice and learn about it. As a tutor, there is only a very limited hours that I can accompany my student. Therefore,…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to improve a student's confidence with the subject they are tutoring. Once a student has the confidence that they can in fact figure it out they will be far more willing to put in the hard work to improve in the subject. A tutor must encourage their students to ask as many questions as they'd like…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to help them learn whatever they want to learn, even if they have a lot of difficulty understanding it. The first and most important thing would be the fact that I myself was a school student not long ago, and am a university student still, so I would understand what my…

A tutor must find out about a student's personal learning requirements, such as where and why they struggle with concepts, and then figure out how best the student learns, then teach the student according to their own needs, that they may gain fluency in the particular academic area.

I think it is important that a tutor be able to explain a concept in a way that the student can understand, internalise and remember, while tapping into their passion for the subject, rather than strictly and laboriously forcing them to rote-learn concepts (with the exception of fairly simple ideas like times tables of course) I think my strengths…

Inside ReidTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student James worked on analysing the domain of complex functions and reviewed his homework for linear equations, clarifying any misconceptions.

For Year 8, Emma focused on expanding brackets and solving linear systems of equations, including visualising binomials using geometric representations.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student revised fractions with exponents and practiced solving linear systems of equations, building confidence through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student hesitated when translating worded problems into equations in Maths Methods, often needing reassurance before starting—"once prompted, he finished the question," a tutor observed.

In Year 10, test planning and time management emerged as an obstacle: timing each question wasn't tracked, so slower sections remained hidden until revision.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student left key exercises unfinished between lessons, meaning fewer questions could be brought up for feedback during tutoring. This led to missed opportunities for targeted explanation and deeper understanding in algebraic methods.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Reid noticed Juan, a high school student, returning to earlier algebra content and quickly recalling everything after previous struggles with certain questions—this time he could answer them independently without hesitation.

Thea, also in high school, now openly admits when she doesn't understand a concept rather than staying quiet; she's begun drawing on prior lessons to solve new problems and can now expand equations without any help.

In primary sessions, one student who previously mixed up improper fractions now confidently converts them into whole numbers during practice questions.

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 Kingston Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Canberra Grammar School - Northside Infants Campus.
