Listen, and understand why they've been having difficulties in their study. Only then can the tutor truly be able to help the student get past these in order to make learning fun again. I'm a fast learner, excellent communicator and problem solver, and most of all, i take the time to listen in a calm and patient manner. I believe this last…

The most important thing a physics tutor can do for a student is help build their confidence. A student is able to do anything, learn anything but only if they believe that they can do it or learn it. Being friendly, easy going, relaxed and flexible are key to giving a student confidence because without it, they aren't going to progress. I have…

The most important thing a physics tutor can do is to inspire passion; a person who is sincerely interested in a subject and has a drive to continue delving into it will naturally go much further and achieve much higher then an unmotivated genius no matter the intellect as they will enjoy the entire journey of learning and not just focus on the…

To give the student confidence, and to overcome exam anxiety. Many of my students are under in high stress situations, such as year 12 students trying to get a good enough result to get into university. They have a high workload.

Provide adequate motivation and encouragement. A tutor is only half responsible for the student's progress, and the student is responsible for the other half through their own work and perseverance. It is therefore crucial that a physics tutor teaches not only content, but also good work ethic to a student by encouraging and motivating them to…

I think a physics tutor has a lot of power in empowering a student and making them love learning and love the subject. If a tutor can reorient a student's perspective of a certain topic and make the student learn it, it enables the student to engage more with the subject and hopefully increases their passion for learning and education in general…

I believe that a physics tutor must guide the student to learn independently by introducing different methods and techniques to learn. This is because an hour or two of supervised study in a week is not sufficient to learn and excel in a subject. Further, in this modern world with ever expanding technology there are many avenues to study and learn…

Inside SouthportTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Mason worked on mastering the application of the product, chain, and quotient rules for differentiation, including tackling real-world optimisation problems using second derivatives.

Year 12 student Alex focused on logarithmic and exponential equations—reviewing their graphs and properties—and practised applying integration techniques to calculate areas between curves.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Georgia consolidated her understanding of trigonometric functions by practising sine and cosine rules with diagrams, then applied these skills to find unknown sides and angles in non-right-angled triangles.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often mixed up multiplication strategies, as noted: "He breaks down 12x7 as 10x7 + 2x7, but sometimes switches methods mid-question," which led to confusion and extra time spent clarifying steps.

In Year 4 maths, one student relied heavily on concrete tools for translating word problems but struggled to move toward abstract equations without these aids.

For a Year 11 student preparing for exams, incomplete summary notes made it difficult to recall earlier content; this resulted in confusion during multi-topic revision sessions and slower progress on mock tests.

Confidence would waver after encountering tough exponential questions in senior maths, sometimes stopping them from completing solutions even when their working was correct.

Recent Achievements

A Southport tutor recently noticed Jakob, a Year 5 student, making a big leap by tackling decimal homework questions on his own—just last month he needed step-by-step guidance for each one.

In Year 10 maths, Rachel started speaking up and sharing her ideas aloud during lessons instead of waiting for prompts; this is the first time she's shown that kind of initiative.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student took it upon himself to search out the trapezoidal rule independently to solve an unfamiliar calculus problem, showing real growth in self-driven problem-solving.

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 Southport Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like The Southport School.
