Know your stuff. Always. As simple as it might sound, really bringing your students a reliable foundation of knowledge on the subject is always crucial. It doesn't mean that you ALWAYS have to know your stuff though, we are human, and human can sometimes afford not to know it all. This is when I would go on, do my research, and make sure the next…

Being able to help a student achieve future problems on their own by helping them understand how to do a problem rather than just providing the solution is one of the most important things I consider a tutor can do for a student. I also think it's important to be prepared to help them with their topics by preparing first myself. I believe my…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to give them the skills to solve unfamiliar problems that they have not learned a method of solving, and require them to devise their own unique approach to the problem. My biggest strengths as a tutor are that I have a very patient approach to teaching and that I am able to clearly and…

The most important thing a tutor can do to a student is make student believe that student can learn and reach proper solution. Every one has the potential to learn things so, once a student starts believing in himself/herself studying starts to become fun. I as a tutor hardly give up on my students. I can only be satisfied and feel peaceful once I…

I believe one of the most important things a tutor can do is create a safe, encouraging space where students feel confident to ask questions, make mistakes, and grow. It’s not just about helping them understand the content, it’s also about building their self-belief and showing them that they "can" succeed. A good tutor should also adapt their…

I think tutors should be understanding to help them in the best way that they can, like being there for your students, not as a crutch but as someone who can amplify their learning.

The most important things a tutor can do could be split into two parts. Academically, tutors are there to help the student to learn all the knowledge required for them to achieve better grades. Spiritually, tutors are there as mentors, which they need to encourage the student to achieve their full potential, because usually due to exam pressure,…

While I think it's important to assist students from an academic standpoint, I also think it's important for tutors to help students develop a sense of purpose in their studies.

Tutors are expected to bolster student grades however this is not their true purpose, A tutor should help to develop students to not only achieve greater marks but also to have a greater understanding of the field they are being tutored in. This should extend beyond the tutoring time as the student develops the skills required to support…

A tutor needs to always be supportive. A student needs a tutor because (s)he wants help. Sometimes not getting a good result can be frustrating for them.

Listen. Every student excels in some ways and does not in others. This emphasises the importance for a tutor to present ideas in ways which allow the student to learn them in the most efficient and effective ways. This also ensures that the tutor does not repeat anything the student already knows and identifies what the student has yet to learn. -…

Inside Cumberland ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Ella revised advanced algebra questions and explored real-life applications of ratios in preparation for a test.

For Year 10, Andrea worked through exponential equations and factorials, solidifying her understanding with targeted practice on these challenging concepts.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student focused on polynomials—identifying key features for an assignment—and began tackling trigonometry questions to reinforce graphing skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student showed reluctance to attempt graph sketching without guidance; "she did not do enough graph sketching," leading to gaps when tackling domain and range problems independently.

In Year 8 algebra, one student avoided writing out working, especially when unsure about substituting values—this led to confusion about what the question required and inconsistent analyses.

For a Year 6 learner, over-reliance on calculators meant basic multiplication facts weren't recalled automatically during quick-fire exercises.

A Year 4 student struggled with following written lines in number work, making errors harder to spot or correct mid-task.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Cumberland Park noticed that one Year 11 student, who used to avoid difficult questions, now independently attempts challenging problems after just a little prompting and even handed in her assignment draft with no concerns.

In Year 9, another student showed a shift from needing constant guidance to confidently suggesting her own approaches—she now requires fewer prompts to answer algebra questions and explains her reasoning clearly.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who previously struggled with multiplication is recalling tables more easily and now works through worksheets, recognising and correcting mistakes 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 Mitcham Memorial Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Westbourne Park Primary School.
