The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to create a positive atmosphere for learning. As a result it builds confidence within the student. Also a tutor should help students develop problem solving skills and independent thinking. I'm patient and understanding because of that it eases many students' nerves. That allows me to…

A tutor plays a crucial role in a student's learning journey, I believe understanding the student's individual learning style, strengths, and areas of struggle. Tailoring lessons to their specific needs can make a big difference in how effectively they grasp new concepts. Keeping the student motivated by offering positive reinforcement, which is…

As a tutor, it is important to not just teach the questions but to teach the concept. This is vital as the ability to adapt to new questions and situations will not only help them with their studies but further in life. Learning math isn't about learning how to do the questions but about finding the correct approach to tackle questions, it builds…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do is help a student build confidence. A lot of the time, students know more than they think they just need someone to guide them, encourage them, and help them see their own progress. It’s also really important to create a safe, supportive space where they feel comfortable asking questions…

Accountability. Ensuring if you are unable to answer the student's questions initially, you take initiative to research and get back to them later on. Involve the student in their learning. Listen carefully to their opinions and incorporate it into how a study plan is formed, rather than the tutor making decisions for the student. Patience…

Connect the dots from where they are to where they want to be. Take the life's insecurities out of them by make them focus on their end goal. Make education as a bridge to get there.

The ability to explain concepts and solutions to problems in a way that the student can understand. What can look very simple to us can seem like a foreign language to our students, so the skill to break these down and make the student believe that what just looked impossible to them is actually very doable is invaluable as a tutor.

Sophia Kalli, Herne Hill

Inside Herne HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 Myra worked on adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions—including worded problems—and practiced decimal operations and telling time for upcoming assessments.

In Year 10, Zariah focused on rearranging physics equations (such as d = vt and Ek = ½mv²), solving real-world energy questions, and using scientific notation.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student tackled projectile motion with oblique launches and explored circular motion concepts like normal force calculations and period/frequency using problem-solving steps.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student's algebra work showed a tendency to commit early to one method, even when the first approach led to simple mistakes, which made correcting errors more difficult.

In Year 12 calculus, skipping the step of multiplying by the derivative in chain rule questions meant correct answers were missed after good starts.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 learner's unstructured working out in equations left them lost mid-problem and unsure which formula to use.

For a Year 4 maths task on time formats, unclear layout between AM/PM and 24-hour clocks caused confusion—so reading back through solutions became frustrating instead of clarifying.

Recent Achievements

One Herne Hill tutor noticed a Year 12 student who previously hesitated to attempt exam-style questions is now asking for more challenging problems and can complete several independently, especially after mastering simultaneous equations.

Another high schooler made a clear leap by not just recalling theorems but confidently applying them to unfamiliar situations without prompting—something they struggled with before.

Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 5 who once avoided mental maths now solves addition and subtraction tasks out loud, checking her own answers and only asking for help when truly stuck. Last session, she finished all ten problems without errors.

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 Midland Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Herne Hill Primary School.
