I believe following up with students is the best way to create accountability and instil a routine in them. Also, tutors who put in effort after hours, such as staying back to help or creating personalised tasks to target their weak areas, are critical for students to excel in their studies. As a previously tutored student, I can guarantee that…

I believe that it's a tutor's purpose is to push the student at a pace that they're capable of achieving regardless of what that level is. A student can only work to the best of their capacity and achieving this efficiency is the advantaged of personalised education. With younger especially clients in grades 4 and below, I believe it's essential…

I think communication is one of the most crucial skills. I believe every students, somehow, are capable of learning. So even though I don't have extraordinary skills to teach them, they will learn from my explanation. But I have to know where they are at the point of time to know exactly what and how I have to teach. Having an idea of what my…

A tutor can make a student love the subject he/she hates. The most important thing for a tutor is to understand the student, his/her interests, aptitude, and what he/she is inclined towards.

Teach in an understandable, motivating, and enjoyable way. Crucial factors for efficient learning (things as relibaility, punctuality and so on) are all obvious and mandatory to me.

Guide the student and not give them the answer straight away. Let them develop the critical thinking needed for each type of problem. This is especially important in programming.

Show the student how to learn something. If a tutor can explain another way of looking at problems so that the student understands how to approach them, its the most useful thing for them.

Inside UltimoTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Yash explored area and perimeter of triangles, along with multiplying and adding decimals and large numbers, finishing up with some long division for fluency.

In Year 10, Michelle focused on applying the perfect squares method to solve parabolas and used the discriminant to analyse tangent and secant scenarios.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ben worked through conditional probability problems using Venn diagrams and tackled non-linear relationships in algebraic contexts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student did not complete the assigned homework, which limited her confidence when facing new equation types—"she needed more practice to feel ready with the answers."

In Year 9, a student became stuck on lengthy worded problems, especially when unfamiliar vocabulary appeared; this slowed progress even if those words were not essential.

For a Year 4 learner, confusion between letters like 'b' and 'd' meant she relied heavily on an adult's help to get through reading tasks.

During algebra in Year 8, "he skipped steps while solving," causing hidden errors that required extra correction time mid-session.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Ultimo recently saw a Year 11 student who'd struggled with financial maths revisit her old exam errors—this time, she could solve those tricky problems independently after targeted practice.

A Year 9 student, who used to hesitate when stuck, now openly asks the tutor to repeat explanations if something's unclear and even volunteered to try extra word problems on her own.

In a primary session, one young learner began reading short passages aloud smoothly for the first time once promised regular breaks; before, she'd quietly avoid reading out loud at all.

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