A tutor could guide the student through few steps that make complicated questions easier for the student to handle. A good tutor will figure out the way of thinking of the student and modify his teaching methods to help the student in the best possible way. I carefully explain concepts and will always try to simplify or reword them if the people I…

The most important thing a tutor can do is help their students to see the value and potential in themselves. Through helping students find a learning style (and pace) that suits them and encouraging them to develop their skills in a wide range of subjects, tutors give students the foundation of confidence and understanding. I'm patient when it…

I think listening to them to make sure their needs are known and understood by all parties involved. This helps create a supportive atmosphere that can hopefully allow the student to reach their potential. Making it a fun and rewarding experience for both parties is also important, as this can show a student how good the experience can be,…

According to me, the most important thing as a tutor is to try and try until the student understands, although it takes a lot of patience and time. It is also important to explore the student's best way of learning, which may include audio, visual, or kinesthetic, and make efforts to teach them accordingly. As a tutor, I first make my students…

A tutor should create a safe space for a student so that he/she can reach out whenever needed. Through this, a student will feel more comfortable in his/her studies and will acquire more confidence since they will have the opportunity to be more inquisitive. They will be more eager to learn and explore. My biggest strength as a tutor is patience.…

Inside StepneyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Leo practised multiplication facts up to 12x tables and worked on basic equivalent fractions with denominators up to 5.

In Year 8, Sarah focused on solving linear equations and revising graphical coordinates, including plotting points on the Cartesian plane.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Tom tackled Pythagoras' Theorem using real-world triangle problems and explored introductory trigonometry concepts through guided examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 3 student hesitated to write times tables, often needing drawn aids and still unsure of multiplication basics.

In Year 7 algebra, "he skipped showing steps in equations, which hid sign errors," leading to confusion with negatives and missed feedback opportunities.

A Year 9 student's work was scattered across the page—numbers blended together and operators lost—making it hard to trace their logic during trigonometry problems.

Meanwhile, a senior student faced setbacks when distracted on the laptop during coordinate geometry tasks; answers were attempted mentally but mistakes crept in, leaving corrections unseen until review.

Recent Achievements

One Stepney tutor noticed a Year 9 student who, after regularly skipping steps in algebra, now writes out his process clearly and explains how he arrives at answers—especially when tackling mixed-to-improper fractions.

In another session, a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to ask for help during assignments started flagging questions on index laws that felt tricky, then worked through them independently after just one prompt.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner surprised her tutor by confidently applying the same rule to both numerator and denominator for equivalent fractions—a real turnaround from needing every step modelled last week.

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 Peters Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like East Adelaide School.
