1. The tutor should be open minded and let the student show any problems in their homework or tests etc. 2. I can be assertive, but not authoritative. Students tend to become discouraged if they find that their tutor is directing/forcing information when uncalled for. Some of my stregnths include: - setting an agenda before we start each class…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to create a separate study plan for each one of them based on their learning skills, potential, and the speed at which the student is able to understand the topics. Also, a tutor should more often use real-life examples to simplify relatively hard topics for students to understand them…

Every child is unique, so he/she has to be dealt with and moulded accordingly. The greatest thing in my eyes that a tutor can do for a student is listening to the student requirements as to what or where he/she needs special attention, or what he is grabbing or not. The greatest asset to this is communication, a student can only open his/her heart…

Naturally, a tutor's main priority is to provide profound and thorough knowledge through clear communication. I believe that while this is nuclear to the role, this teaching can only be achieved if the tutor also carries other accompanying qualities. This includes patience and listening, aforementioned, and trust. As a tutor, it is inevitable that…

Local Reviews

They have been amazing! They paired my young daughter with a great tutor who has already built her skills and confidence. For the first time my daughter loves doing math with her tutor! By having the sessions in my house has also really helped them build a positive relationship and means I don't need to be rushing around after school. It's early days, but I'm positive this was the best decision we could've made for our daughter.
Rebecca, Warranwood

Inside WarranwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Alex focused on adding and multiplying fractions with different denominators, and also practised converting fractions to decimals.

For Year 9, Sam reviewed how to convert between fractions, percentages, and decimals in simplest form, along with simplifying expressions using the distributive law and writing numbers in scientific notation.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Emily worked through simplifying surds and rationalising denominators, using step-by-step examples for each calculation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 mathematics, one student tended to copy worked examples rather than attempt problems independently; as noted, "needs to try working independently and thinking actively instead of just waiting and copying the solutions." This habit limited true understanding during algebra tasks.

A Year 10 student struggled with organization, often bringing large volumes of notes but rarely referencing them efficiently in SAC preparation—leaving key information unused during practice.

For a Year 11 methods lesson, an over-reliance on calculators meant steps in simultaneous equations were skipped; errors went unnoticed until review.

In a Year 4 arithmetic session, messy written work made it hard to follow fraction calculations.

Recent Achievements

One Warranwood tutor noticed a real shift in a Year 9 student who, after struggling to connect formulas to worded measurement problems, now reliably selects the right units and strategies without prompting.

In a senior session, Alex independently recognised mistakes from past tests and used those insights to solve new exam questions—something she hadn't done before when she'd freeze on unfamiliar problems. This independent error recognition marks a major breakthrough.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student recently surprised her tutor by asking specific questions about homework rather than waiting for help, showing new initiative during sessions.

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 Croydon Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Warranwood Primary School.
