A tutor must be willing to share his/her experience to the student. This makes the student feel more trust and support towards the tutor. A tutor must also be a good role model for the student.

I believe that being empathetic and being able to read other's body language is very important; you must lead the class at a pace in which the student can keep up with. Thus, as a tutor it would be beneficial for a student if the tutor occasionally asks if their student has comprehended what has been taught so far. Constantly revising previous…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to help them building up confidence and interest in learning. Help them to form a habit and positive attitude. This will help them develop self learning skills, and hopefully one day even without a tutor, students can still progress and doing well in their future studies. I propose the idea…

Being able to not only improve a student's knowledge, but also to develop their own strategies in gaining knowledge and understanding themselves.

I think giving young kids the right advice so they can make informed and well-regarded decisions regarding their careers, interests etc. Moreover, it is important to make students aware of their innate unique qualities. Helping students discover their true selves is as important as helping them get the desired grades. Having studied in France,…

The most important thing about what tutors can do for a student could be being a life mentor. As they are on a physical and emotional growing stage, providing guidance on their important decisions is essential as a tutor. This includes giving advice in difficult situations for decision making process and prevention of anti-social behaviour. My…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student is: Build confidence – Many students struggle not because they lack ability, but because they lack belief in themselves.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is give the students the steps and resources to understand the topic and ultimately solve their problems by themselves.

I think it is important for tutors to be able to identify which areas students struggle with, then find a way to break it down and explain it to students so they fully understand. Tutors need to be patient and also be able to listen to what questions the students have, understand the problem and then explain the question to them slowly. Tutors…

In my opinion, a tutor should foster a safe and encouraging space for learning, build students’ confidence, and help them develop independent problem-solving skills. It’s about empowering students, not just teaching content. In fact, implementing teaching strategies to adapt to the student's learning style is crucial for better comprehension.…

Inside RichmondTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Sam worked on reviewing questions missed in Maths Space, with a focus on statistics and interpreting data sets.

For Year 8, Mia covered the foundations of algebra including expanding brackets and factoring, then practiced graphing parabolas using turning point form.

In Year 10, Liam reviewed motion concepts such as velocity and displacement through problem-solving exercises, and tackled chemistry mole calculations to strengthen quantitative analysis skills.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 exam preparation, one student's revision focused mainly on familiar question types, avoiding harder Units 1 and 2 calculation problems. "She got these wrong on the exam, so this will be our next focus."

In a Year 8 algebra session, work was often messy and steps were skipped—making it hard to spot where mistakes happened.

A primary student hesitated to show working in fraction problems out of fear of being wrong; as a tutor noted, "he needs more confidence to go with his gut instinct."

These patterns led to repeated errors and slowed progress in mastering new material.

Recent Achievements

One Richmond tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to rush through questions now takes time to read each one carefully, catching details she previously missed.

In a senior session, another student who had struggled with algebra last term is now confidently recognising like terms and solving equations without prompting—last week, he finished all assigned problems independently for the first time.

A younger student also surprised her tutor by starting to ask clarifying questions during lessons rather than guessing quietly; this shift meant she solved several tricky fraction problems correctly on her own.

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 Richmond Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Bindjiroo Yaluk Community School-Richmond Campus.
