The most important thing a tutor can do is give students the skills to work through problems on their own. Mathematics is all about problem solving which many students struggle to do because they don't have the foundation of skills to know what solutions to reach for. A good tutor starts at the base of the students skills and gives them a strong…

The primary thing a tutor can/ must do for a student is to understand them. Give them the freedom to express their doubts and curiosity, so that they can develop more. Also never compare them with others, always try to make them their better version. Secondly, being a friend to your student can make a huge difference in the way of learning. It…

Inside Upper SturtTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ava focused on building multiplication and division skills, as well as applying these to everyday money scenarios.

In Year 10, Lucas worked through trigonometric equations and tackled circular geometry problems using visual aids.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sam addressed applications of integration and explored magnetic induction by linking mathematical techniques to physics contexts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student was observed not completing much revision between sessions, which meant he "hadn't done much revision between our last two sessions," leaving him less prepared for upcoming tests.

In Year 12 Physics, another student understood the theory during lessons but struggled to recall methods independently when tackling homework. One tutor noted, "he can work out problems with encouragement but struggles to remember how he solved similar equations the previous Sunday."

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student frequently mixed up cents and dollars in money questions—messy working made it harder to spot these misunderstandings in time.

Recent Achievements

One Upper Sturt tutor noticed a Year 10 student who, after initially relying on rote memorisation for kinematics, began applying concepts independently and handed in fully self-checked notes for revision.

In a Year 8 session, a student who used to quietly guess at division problems now eagerly explains each step aloud, showing new ownership of her thinking.

Meanwhile, a younger learner made the leap from struggling with basic time questions to confidently choosing when to add or subtract minutes without prompting—ending the lesson by finishing all ten time word problems correctly on her own.

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 Stirling Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Upper Sturt Primary School.
