With a strong foundational understanding the students can be more confident and creative in their application in the concepts. I have two main strengths as a tutor. First, I bring a very strong working knowledge of the…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to ignite a student's curiosity and passion for learning. When a student finds joy in the process, success naturally follows. All students are different, and they have different needs. Providing the right support is crucial in my opinion. Understanding where exactly the student needs help, and…

It is so important for tutors to adapt their method of teaching to the way the student learns. Every student not only has different needs and difficulties, but learns concepts differently. It is extremely important to regularly re-evaluate the student's objectives. Modifying your approach as a tutor to make the student feel comfortable and…

One of the most important things a tutor can do, other than assisting them to excel in all areas of learning is to instil them with the confidence to learn. This is crucial as it allows students to believe that school work/learning is to be something that is fun rather than a “chore†or boring. Once this occurs, the student begins to engage…

I think the best thing a tutor can do is make learning feel achievable.

A tutor is more than a teacher. A teachers job is to give a student a base level of understanding whereas a tutor can build on that and go further. This allows students to revisit sections that the teacher brushed over or to build on sections they seemingly understand to ensure they can answer a greater range of question types. Along with the…

Inside RedfernTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Lily worked through perimeter and multiplication skills, using both traditional exercises and interactive math games to boost engagement.

For Year 7, James focused on algebraic expressions including expanding like terms as well as powers, practicing with step-by-step examples.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Priya developed her understanding of probability concepts and direct versus indirect proportionality, applying these ideas to real-world scenarios for clearer comprehension.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, difficulty was observed with setting out clear lines of reasoning when tackling probability problems; as one tutor put it, "she knows the subject well, but has trouble putting together the line of reasoning."

In a Year 7 lesson on fractions and division by decimals, written working sometimes became messy or incomplete, making it harder to identify where confusion arose.

A senior student avoided showing all steps in algebraic expansions during revision, which led to repeated sign errors and slower progress.

When reviewing multiplication tables (Years 3–5), some learners relied heavily on verbal recall instead of written practice, slowing mastery.

Recent Achievements

A Redfern tutor noticed a Year 11 student who initially struggled to explain her reasoning in probability is now confidently breaking problems into logical steps before solving them.

In Year 8, Sara recently showed real initiative during algebra—she now asks for extra practice with combining like terms, instead of waiting for direction, which marks a big shift from her earlier passivity.

Meanwhile, Lily in primary school has started double-checking her answers on complex fraction and area questions without being prompted; just last week she chose to rework a perimeter problem until every step matched the question's requirements.

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 Waterloo Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Inner Sydney High School.
