One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is aiding their understanding in their learning. By helping a student understand what they are being taught or what they need help with, it can stimulate their passion within the subject and evoke curiosity about the subject and its applications. I am open-minded and communicative so I…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teaching the content in a way suited to that students learning style. I break things down to a very simple level. I like building everything up from nothing. In chemistry before talking about organic compounds and the interactions for example, I like to talk about the individual elements at…

Always be a helping hand. In this sense, listen to the areas they think they have problems, observe the areas they may not catch onto easily and provide extra care and attention. Try to do your best to go above and beyond so that the student goes from just learning the subject to understanding and liking the subject more. I am a visual learner…

I believe one of the most important things is to not only be there tutor, but to also be a role model. It's essential that you are able to share your knowledge and understanding in a calm and coherent way, and to ensure the student is happy and satisfied with the help they are getting. It is important to form a connection with them, so they feel…

The most important things a tutor can do is to bring the best out of a student. Aside from assisting the problems students might have in schools, it is equally important for a tutor to act as a role model through showing great examples. On top of that, a tutor should also be empathetic in order to know the student's strengths and weaknesses so…

In my opinion, tutors have the responsability to ensure that the students have learned and correctly understood a topic. I always liked the metaphor building a car. A mechanic can tell you how to build it piece by piece but you can not replicate that process unless you have really understood it. In addition, tutors have an important role in…

One of the most important things a tutor can do is to build both a professional and friendly rapport with the students at the beginning. This helps to set a comfortable and safe learning environment.

I believe that the most important thing for a tutor is to be patient with a student.

Local Reviews

Rosie is tutoring my child in year 7 maths and has built up a great rapport with her. Through my observations I can see that Rosie has a strong understanding of maths and is able to explain ideas and concepts very easily. She has a lot of patience and always checks my daughters understanding and offers alternative explanations where needed. Rosie is always punctual, friendly and polite and I am very happy with the progress that has been made to date.

Inside ZetlandTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student William worked on correcting homework covering simple interest and surds, along with catching up missed class content.

For Year 9, revision with Ben focused on dividing and multiplying fractions as well as tackling negative and fractional indices in surds.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Xavier practised converting remainders into decimals, solved word problems, and labelled different types of triangles using diagrams to support understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student left several steps unwritten when tackling algebraic equations, as one tutor noted: "he tried to do everything in his head instead of writing it down." This led to confusion over signs and made errors harder to spot.

In Year 11, incomplete homework meant that basic perfect square practice was missed, so extra time had to be spent revisiting foundational rules rather than progressing.

Meanwhile, a primary student working on division often forgot her materials at home, causing delays while searching for worksheets and slowing the start of each session.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Zetland noted that William, a Year 10 student, has started attempting every maths question instead of skipping the tough ones—a real shift from earlier sessions when he'd often give up if stuck.

In Year 11, after struggling with surd problems last term, he was able to recall the steps and solve similar questions independently this week, using his own notes for support.

Meanwhile, Elliott (Year 5) used to stay quiet during lessons but now openly talks through his reasoning on each English question and even asks for extra examples when something feels tricky. Last session, he wrote down all his ideas 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 Green Square Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Green Square Public School.
