One of the most important things I have realised over helping my friends in year 12 would be to walk through the question and not actually doing the question for the student. Sure you could do the question for them and they could get full marks for an assignment or whatever, but they would not understand the fundamentals lying behind the question…

I believe the most important aspect is encouraging learning and allowing students to explore creative aspects of learning freely. I believe that the way you are taught and the encouragement you receive along the way has a significant impact on a student's performance. Hence, I believe that teaching a student to be confident in themselves and their…

From my own experience, I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is foster a positive learning environment. Celebrating wins and providing patient, encouraging support through mistakes helps students gain confidence and come out of their shell. When students feel comfortable and supported, they are more likely to enjoy learning and see…

Listening to the students is the most important things a tutor can do. Not everyone can study at the same pace or method. While I have my method of teaching, it helps the student to be more comfortable to study in a way that they are familiar or works for them. I can be as soft or hard as required to teach my students. Listening to them and…

I think the most important thing a tutor need to do for a student is to acknowledge it is not only a job. Acknowledge that we are important influences for students. Thus, we need to keep studying to be better for students, learn how to educate, willing to use more time, communicate with experienced teachers, ask if we do not know know to deal with…

Build interest. For younger student, most of them are still trying to find their interest in a certain field. The best thing I can do is to build interest with my humorous skill.

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…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make a student enjoy the subject that they are teaching.

It is important that the tutor understands the needs and the gaps that the student has at the beginning of the sessions.

In my opinion, a tutor must be able to empathize with the student and create a safe space for them.

Karen

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.
