Building a good rapport is also imperative for the tutee to feel comfortable so that learning becomes more meaningful for them. I am focused on the goal of helping the tutee learn and understand the concept. I am patient and would always exhaust the different…

A tutor should illuminate the skills, information and methodology on which academic excellence is predicated, thus enabling students to undertake work with confidence and awareness. The communication of this guidance -- and the guidance itself -- should be tailored to the individual's own needs. I am perceptive, patient, and good at articulating…

The most important part of being a tutor is ensuring all pursuits are cerebral and remaining disciplined when working with children. If you start moving off-topic then the essential time has been wanted for both parties, at the same time however you must also ensure that the children do not get board, overall productivity decreases when students…

The most important thing for a tutor is to be actively listening; a tutor should respond to the student since tutoring differs from general teaching by way of individuality. Each student can express themselves as a person to a tutor rather than just another student in a class. I believe I am great at adapting my teaching style to cater for each…

The most important thing a tutor can do is create a safe, encouraging space where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. It's crucial to not only help students understand the material but also to build their confidence and show them that they are capable of solving problems on their own. Providing the right level of…

I believe the important thing a tutor can do for a student is to show patience and determination to increase the confidence and self-esteem of the child. To do this a teacher must really get to know the student, their learning styles and strengths and weaknesses, to make customisable plans, which attract students to learn and result in better…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them how to critically reason through a problem. Critical thinking is a life-long skill that will serve them well long after they graduate high school. Students who learn this skill will not only score better on exams, but will also make better life-decisions. My background is in…

To listen to the student. If a student doesn’t understand something, it’s the responsibility of the tutor to try a different method and to have patience with the student. Having struggled myself with maths in school, before fully understanding it, I am used to rephrasing/explaining concepts in different ways, and providing tips to help…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to get them passionate/interested in what they are learning about, motivating them to learn and improve without getting bored. Another important aspect is to help them establish good study habits and a will to understand the concepts rather than just going through repetitive…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student are clarify difficult concepts, build confidence, and encourage independent thinking. A tutor should not just provide answers but help students develop a deeper understanding of the subject by guiding them through problems and encouraging critical thinking. Equally important is creating a…

Inside HeathfieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Oliver worked on multiplication and division skills as well as tackling time questions using word problems.

For Year 9, Ethan focused on factorisation of polynomials and practiced graphing equations by hand to reinforce algebraic understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sophie revised logarithms for an upcoming test and reviewed methods for rearranging algebraic expressions, emphasising accuracy under timed conditions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student in Heathfield often skipped showing full working for algebra, which made it difficult to spot and fix sign errors—he skipped steps in algebra, which hid sign errors.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student preparing for physics tests hadn't completed enough revision between sessions; this led to uncertainty when choosing equations during circular motion problems.

In Year 8, another learner's tendency to rush through worded maths questions resulted in frequent misinterpretations of what was actually being asked. These habits meant time was lost untangling misunderstandings rather than building confidence with new content.

Recent Achievements

A Heathfield tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to lose marks for small algebra slips is now catching these mistakes before submitting practice tests, double-checking his work rather than rushing through.

In Year 9 maths, another student—who previously stayed quiet when confused—has started explaining her thinking out loud during problem-solving, which has helped clarify tricky division steps she'd often skip over in silence before.

A younger primary student was initially hesitant with time problems but now confidently tells the tutor whether to add or subtract minutes and finishes all set questions without needing prompts.

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 Heathfield Primary School.
