The most important thing a tutor must do is to assess the student's answer and provide feedback, as that really helps them learn from their mistakes. Equally integral is, taking a doubt session as solving the doubts of the student not only improves learning but also develops a sense of confidence in the student about the subject, which develops a…

A tutor should take their time with a student and make sure the student understands before moving on. I believe the purpose of tutoring should be to provide learning strategies that are specific to the individual in contrast with teaching in a classroom (at the pace of the class). A tutor should provide multiple strategies for learning. For…

Try to make them feel confident in themselves and build intuition. Maths is hard and it is easy to feel discouraged; so being able to boost morale and keep them going is important in them being successful.

For me the most important thing a tutor can do is to guide the student in such a way that at the end of it, the student is able to lead by himself in the direction he was originally intended to go. It is similar to the lines of giving a man a fish to teaching him to fish. The tutor has to ignite the spark of interest in the student so that the…

I would say, be supportive and a good listener are the most important things a tutor should offer to students. Based on my previous experience, students sometimes lack motivations to finish their school homework either they are too tired from school, or they just don't understand the school materials well. As a tutor, this could be an opportunity…

Besides helping them understand and learn a topic, the tutor should also help the student master the topic through mastery learning.

I think a tutor should be able to tell if their student understands something or not, often they don't say it outright and asking them directly might not get them to admit it. So by asking them to solve a question that indirectly uses the concept might help us figure out if they're having trouble or not. Students should also feel comfortable with…

Inside MagillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 Kieron focused on confidence intervals for means and proportions, as well as tackling practice questions on the Central Limit Theorem and normal distributions.

For Year 11 Jessica, recent sessions involved problem solving with similar triangles and exploring integral calculus to find the area under curves.

Meanwhile, Year 8 Nick worked through trigonometric problems using sine, cosine, and tangent ratios, along with an introduction to permutations and combinations for his maths assignment.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, one student did not complete assigned homework questions for networks, leading to repeated explanations instead of building new skills—"we spent the session going over concepts which I had already explained."

A Year 11 student preparing for calculus and physics tests repeatedly avoided setting up a revision timetable, making last-minute study more stressful.

In Year 12, incomplete assignments were common, with several sessions focused on unfinished reports or calculations rather than exam practice.

For a Year 9 student, untidy written work in maths made it hard to trace errors and check steps clearly during problem-solving.

Recent Achievements

A Magill tutor noticed Kieron, a high school student, now brings his own questions from homework and class to each session—something he was hesitant to do earlier in the year.

Olivia, also in high school, recently worked through challenging calculus problems she'd previously avoided; last week she completed all revision questions on her own before moving to the next chapter.

In Year 7 maths, Jessica had struggled with ratios for weeks but this time began explaining her reasoning aloud as she finished every question without prompting from her tutor.

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 Campbelltown Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Magill School.
