I believe that a tutor should not just provide answers to a problem, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them how to think to solve problems. This is why teaching maths or physics should go beyond drilling procedures, formulas and theorems into a student's head - tutors should encourage students to develop a wholesome…

Encouragement and being able to explain concepts in a digestible manner are what makes a good tutor, but a great tutor checks in on students to make sure that they are thriving. It takes courage and self-reflection to find a tutor in the first place, so the least a tutor can do is make sure to give the tools for a student to make it on their…

Motivating them is probably the most important, as students can be brilliant but fall behind quickly if they do not have the drive to improve. I think that a tutor also needs to have multiple different ways of approaching a question as a student might not be able to grasp a particular one. Furthermore, I believe that generically working through…

A tutor's job is to fuel their students' love for learning, make them independent, and lend them a hand when it is needed.

First and foremost, helping them score well for the examinations they are going to sit for. However, along the way there, I think it's important for a tutor to help them find their own reason on why they want to do well, their own unique strengths and learning styles, guide them on how to access credible resources help them develop their own voice…

What do you consider to be the most important things a tutor can do for a student?

A tutor can clearly identify the strengths and weaknesses of students and guide them accordingly. He should focus on the strengths and minimise their weaknesses. This is very important as it gives a clear direction to the students. This can also help them realise what career path would be good for them. A tutor should also be able to help students…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is act as a motivation for them to achieve their personal best.

Inside WaterlooTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Elliott revised multiplication and division, then built confidence with fractions and long division using visual models.

For Year 8, Sophie worked on algebraic expansion and simplification alongside measurement skills, focusing on area and perimeter of different shapes.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Adam tackled trigonometry topics including sine and cosine rules as well as curve sketching, helping to prepare for upcoming exams.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3 English, one student struggled with formatting sentences and showed a reluctance toward narrative writing; as the tutor noted, "needed help with formatting sentences."

Meanwhile, in Year 9 mathematics, untidy written work made solutions difficult to follow—messy handwriting directly led to lost marks when misread answers were submitted.

For a senior (Year 11) maths student, late submission of their formula sheet caused stress before an assessment: "Didn't give me cheat (Formula) sheet for the school in time."

These process habits interrupted feedback and sometimes meant unnecessary mistakes went unnoticed until revision.

Recent Achievements

One Waterloo tutor recently noticed a Year 7 student who used to rush through maths questions is now slowing down, carefully reading each problem and explaining his thinking out loud—a big shift from guessing in silence.

A Year 11 student who once struggled with probability is now consistently answering intersection problems and addition rule problems correctly, even tackling harder examples on his own.

Meanwhile, a primary schooler who previously needed help for every division step managed to complete her long division worksheet independently and finished all practice test questions without prompting.

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 Waterloo Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Primary School.
