I believe that it is important for tutors to be passionate about teaching. This way, it is easier for the student to gain interest in the subject, which ultimately leads to better performance from the student as they are more motivated to study and learn. I also think that it is important for tutors to create a comfortable learning environment for…

I believe that making every session meaningful, productive but entertaining is key to learning. A tutor should make sure that the student is well-engaged in the session but still focussing on their weaknesses and strengths. A tutor should make a personalized learning experience for every student and build a relationship of trust with the student.…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is ensure that the student has gained the ability to consolidate the information taught. The student must be able to reproduce the content learned in their own words at their own time. Specifically for English, many students have wonderful, original ideas in their minds, however, they…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student go beyond simply reviewing homework. A tutor must make sure the student truly understands the 'why' behind the concepts, especially in subjects like Math, Chemistry, and Biology. Rote memorization is temporary; genuine understanding, which comes from breaking down complex ideas, is permanent.…

To me, the most important thing a tutor can do is to foster a supportive and positive learning environment. This is because it is important to create a safe and encouraging space where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes and improvements. It is also important for the tutor to tailor the teaching approach to each individual…

I think that a tutor should not limit themselves to just subject knowledge. They should research more on effective teaching methods and strategies that might help them connect to their students more. They should develop practices that make a student's life easier and should understand the individual needs of the students. Often tutors have to…

I think being patient with someone and allowing them to grow in their own way and learn and figure things out is something very important for a tutor to understand. I will challenge students to do questions out of their comfort zone as I believe that is the best way to grow, but only after I know that they understand the basics have a strong…

A tutor can be a guiding light for students. Each student has their own way of absorbing the information that they are taught. This might not always be available to students in a large classroom setting. A good tutor recognizes the strengths and weaknesses of the students and guides them accordingly. I spent most of my adult life abroad as a…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to put in time. They need to act as if it's not just a job which pays. Prepping lessons early, helping with questions outside of tutoring time, marking tests.

In my opinion, the most important responsibility of a tutor is not to teach specific knowledge or skills but to incite the confidence and curiosity for knowledge in students. Ultimately, a successful tutor is the one who can help students out of their bottlenecks, assists them in studying, and finally equips them with the skills and mindsets for…

Local Reviews

James has been a great tutor from the very beginning. Very professional, and I can see my son actively engage in the lessons. I'm very confident that he'll feel far more confident going into his exams, and tackling Year 12 Maths Methods next year.

Inside St MarysTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Zara practised long division with remainders and revisited multiplication of larger numbers to build confidence.

For Year 8, Liam focused on expanding and factorising algebraic expressions, then created a formula sheet for area and volume as a study tool.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Aisha revised Pythagoras' theorem and explored examples of Pythagorean triples through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, skipping back-checking steps when solving complex equations led to repeated errors—"didn't check final answer against the question," as one tutor noted.

A Year 11 student working on trigonometry over-relied on their calculator for sine and cosine rules, which caused confusion when interpreting non-standard triangle diagrams.

In a Year 9 geometry session, messy formatting and unclear layout made it hard to spot where mistakes crept in while calculating angles with parallel lines.

For a Year 6 student tackling division with remainders, incomplete written working meant answers couldn't be traced or explained when asked during revision.

Recent Achievements

One St Marys tutor noticed a Year 8 student who used to hesitate with worded maths problems now confidently extracts key information and sketches diagrams on her own, making multi-step questions less daunting.

In Year 10, a student who struggled to remember index laws last term now applies them automatically without needing a reference sheet, even finishing all ten practice problems correctly in one session.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who found long multiplication overwhelming recently mastered a new technique and can now solve bigger numbers independently after just a few tries.

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 Park Holme Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Bernadette's School.
