Different students learn in different ways and it is important to know this as a tutor so that you can learn to teach each student in a way that works the best for them.

I think listening to them would be the most important thing. Although teaching them concepts and making sure they understand is important as well, but the communication between 1 student and 1 tutor is most important. As communication is important, so I think the best thing a tutor can do is listen to their student and help them from there. I…

As a undergraduate student, I am…

The three most crucial things a tutor can do for a student are to provide them clear explanations, adjust to their preferred way of learning, and boost their self-esteem. Students stay motivated and accomplish their goals when an environment that is encouraging and helpful is created. Patience, effective communication, and the capacity to adjust…

The ability to suit one’s style of tutoring for different kinds of students. As I personally believe that almost all students could study maths if they could find a style that they could accept, and I think that is what a tutor is obligated to do for a student. My tutoring experiences in the UK and Australia further proves my point, where plenty…

A tutor must be able to explain concepts concisely while being patient and understanding towards the student, as they all have different strengths and weaknesses. Most of all, a tutor must empathise with the student; the student should enjoy being taught, and not feel like they're doing a chore. I am patient towards students, and I also believe…

Make the student love the subject. There are many ways varying from a student to the other. If a student falls in love with the subject, he will comprehend it, not just learn it.

Strongly understanding their strengths and skills inside and out so that tutors can tailor and adapt to their situations. An example is having the student to solve a question but verbally share his/her thought processes to see if the approach requires improvement e.g does he/she think of drawing a diagram or remembering an equation/rule first?…

A good tutor should be several things. They are an accountability partner, a mentor in the area the student wishes to improve in, and they are also a source of inspiration for the student. Doing a couple questions in the lesson but not finishing the rest of the homework is not good enough. It is a huge success for a tutor to be able to encourage…

And that is when I know i have achieved being an excellent tutor. I…

We are very happy with Sean, the kids have responded very well to him and even look forward to the sessions!

Inside TelopeaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Max worked through equations in maths and also practised creative writing, targeting both numeracy and literacy skills.

For Year 11, Anna focused on mastering the Trapezoidal Rule and applying it to exam-style integration questions.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Eric reviewed challenging probability concepts—specifically mutually exclusive and dependent events—while tackling tough questions from past trial papers for targeted exam revision.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, a student hesitated to attempt exam-style algebra problems independently and struggled to organize notes across lessons—"reluctant at organizing his notes," as noted—which left key methods unpracticed and concepts scattered.

A Year 9 learner missed several weeks of homework, resulting in gaps when solving quadratic equations or applying trigonometry during quizzes.

In Year 7 English, one student rarely used feedback to improve creative writing structure, sticking to familiar techniques rather than experimenting with new ones.

Meanwhile, a primary student's messy working for fractions led to miscalculations and confusion about which steps were correct on her worksheet.

Recent Achievements

One Telopea tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to speak up is now actively asking for advice on study schedules and linking maths topics like financial maths with ratios, showing real initiative.

A Year 9 student had been slow to pick up algebraic techniques, but after consistent practice, he can now recognise question types independently and suggest which areas he needs to review next lesson.

Meanwhile, a younger student who used to rush through word problems learned to pause and decide strategy before working them out—she completed her latest set without needing reminders.

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 Dundas Valley Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Telopea Public School.
