Most importantly a tutor should understand the goals and needs of each student individually - what they find difficult and why they struggle with certain concepts. Subsequently, tutors should teach students the concepts and ensure they understand how to solve problems, this provides lifelong problem solving skills rather than memorised methods to…

I believe that I'm good at communicating and…

Firstly identifying the student's various strengths and areas of improvement is very significant to give a general idea of which topics to focus/skills on the most whilst teaching them. Another key area that a tutor should investigate further is the student's most effective way of learning specific concepts e.g. visual, written, auditory etc. A …

The most important thing is to understand the needs and problems of a student and to be able to target these issues. As a tutor I will try to change the way I teach according to the requirements of the student, as not everyone learns the same way. I will always be non-judgemental and be patient and continue to support the student no matter what…

I consider confidence to be the most important thing I can give to a student as I believe every student has the capability of doing well in any subject, but belief in themselves is needed.

Support. Providing a great amount of support and motivation is crucial for a student’s education path. Without this, a lack of drive would occur which is detrimental to their learning, ultimately affecting their peers around them which acts like the domino effect.

In my view, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them develop a deep understanding of the subject matter. This means going beyond simply helping them complete assignments and prepare for exams, and instead working with them to build a foundation of knowledge and skills that they can apply to future challenges. A good…

It is extremely important that when the student is faced with a difficult question, they are able to see many potential methods to attempt it.

Inside St MarysTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ella worked on addition and subtraction with trading as well as two-digit multiplication.

For Year 10, Daniel tackled trigonometry topics including Pythagoras's theorem and using trigonometric ratios to find unknown sides in right-angled triangles, practicing with step-by-step diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sarah focused on financial mathematics—specifically simple and compound interest calculations—and reviewed loan repayments within real-life problem scenarios.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student, as noted, "is far behind and not ready for the exam," with time management flagged as a key issue—missed homework and last-minute preparation have left her unable to attempt full past papers in one sitting.

In Year 8 Mathematics, a student avoided copying rules into her exercise book, leading to gaps when trying to apply formulas for geometry.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student struggled with reading clocks and would frequently forget to bring completed worksheets, making it difficult to track progress across weeks. The missed lessons added further inconsistency in building foundational skills.

Recent Achievements

One St Marys tutoring session saw a Year 11 student quickly identify and correct her own mistake in statistics, something she hesitated to do before.

In a Year 9 maths lesson, after several weeks of guided practice, the student began solving trigonometry problems independently instead of waiting for prompts.

A younger primary learner who used to avoid homework started bringing her textbook each week and now completes tasks without reminders. The last session ended with her finishing all assigned questions by herself for the first time.

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 St Marys Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Marys Public School.
