I think as a tutor, It is essential to understand that each student is unique and each student has different learning speeds. Some can understand things quickly while some may need more time. It is important to note these things and teach every student in a way they learn best. I understand that learning things, especially a new topic can be…

I believe that tutoring helps students to be open since most of them are shy and afraid of their teachers. The tutor could also help boost the confidence of his/her students. Lastly, I believe that tutor's guidance and help can make the impossible possible, a slow student to an honor student. I believe that my experiences as a faculty/teacher and…

The most important part of being a tutor is being friendly and available so students feel comfortable asking questions about what they find difficult.

For me, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to motivate the student to study. In my opinion, students are the ones who make progress and I, as a tutor, am only a guide and a motivator. As for me, motivation is much more important than knowledge. Every student can find possibly any knowledge available by using Google, but…

Inside Sefton ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student James worked through the rules of index laws, focusing on expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions with brackets and exponents.

A Year 9 student explored coordinate geometry by calculating gradients, midpoints, and lengths of line segments, while also practicing multiplication and division using index laws in algebra.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student tackled Pythagoras' theorem and trigonometry problems relevant to their classwork, applying these concepts to solve real-world worded questions.

Recent Challenges

Several process obstacles were noted across different year levels.

In Year 5, Molly repeatedly did not complete her assigned maths homework and was unable to show progress on a project between sessions, which meant she missed chances to reinforce skills like multiplication and data analysis. As one tutor observed, "Molly did not do any work after we finished the previous lesson and did not even appear to have added anything to the document."

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student struggled with organizing working for algebraic problems; his cluttered layout made it difficult to find sign errors when reviewing solutions.

During revision for calculus in Year 12, anxiety about timing led him to skip checking steps—this resulted in repeated mistakes during induction proofs and left him frustrated by small but costly errors.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Sefton Park noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to struggle with algebra—he now completes assigned tasks efficiently and even rearranges equations without help, something he couldn't do before.

Another win came from a senior student who picked up calculus rapidly; she differentiated surds and worked through logarithms with minimal prompting, showing initiative by asking for tougher problems mid-session.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who was hesitant about multiplication last term now remembers her times tables and volunteers answers during lessons, finishing all ten practice questions correctly this week.

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 Prospect Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of the Sacred Heart College.
