A tutor can help create a safe environment for a child to voice their concerns with learning which they may feel unable to do in a class setting. Having one-on-one tutor sessions can also help a child to target exactly what they are struggling with. A tutor also has more time with that student to assess what they are good at in order to keep…

A tutor should be able to provide good advice for a student with respect to the individual needs of the student. By being flexible, open and available to help students as much as possible, tutors have the capacity to develop a deep and meaningful connection with them and students will be able to trust and learn more from the tutor. As high school…

Science Tutor Mayfield, NSW
A tutor needs to listen to a student, to understand what the best methods of learning will be, and needs to adapt their teaching to work for any student, rather than just forcing a student into a single mindset. I explain things very carefully, with multiple ways of looking at something, so I am quite flexible in trying to work with a student. I…

I think the most important thing is that they feel motivated to learn, and that going to a tutor would be a fun experience for them. With that, a tutor should be able to clearly teach students and that the student can confidently go to a tutor knowing that he or she will fully understand his or lessons. They should always feel that the learning…

Encouraging students on questions they find difficult and nudging them in the right direction to solve problems so they can do it by themselves without requiring help. A tutor also needs to be reliable, so the student can go to them for help when they need it. I am patient, have a positive attitude towards helping others and can explain things in…

The biggest thing would be to help students understand that ignorance is not failure. Just because they don't know something "basic", that does not mean they are worse than others, or are stupider, or are not going to succeed. It simply means they were not taught in a way that makes sense to them. This could be for a number of reasons, and not…

A tutor should not just be present to give the student all the answers. Its about building confidence and understanding the student’s way of thinking in order to help them grasp concepts and overcome their academic difficulties. Its about taking on a leadership and mentor role so that you can guide your student, and making them feel comfortable…

Kelly was very helpful with getting it all set up and ready to go, we are very impressed

Inside Adamstown HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Chloe focused on data analysis, including calculating mean, median, mode and range, as well as interpreting and creating various graph types such as column and stem-and-leaf charts.

In Year 10, Jackson worked through solving linear equations using y = mx + b form and practised finding x- and y-intercepts from given equations.

Meanwhile, Year 3 student Julian reviewed the properties of 3D shapes—faces, edges, vertices—and confidently completed two-digit addition and subtraction questions before tackling some with four- to five-digit numbers.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, one student regularly estimated solutions instead of showing full working to isolate variables, leading to confusion with negatives and brackets—he skipped steps in algebra, which hid sign errors.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student's study notes were undated and homework incomplete; gaps in financial maths and bivariate data persisted because weekly revision outside lessons was limited.

In senior test prep, another student struggled with time management under pressure: unfamiliar question types led to hesitation and slower progress through exam papers.

At the primary level, difficulty recording numbers beyond thousands resulted in repeated errors during multi-digit calculations.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Adamstown Heights recently noticed a big shift with one Year 11 student who had previously missed key parts of multi-step questions—now he's underlining critical information and tackling more complex problems almost entirely on his own.

In Year 9, another student who used to hesitate before asking for help now openly talks through her algebraic reasoning out loud, showing real independence during sessions.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who struggled with maths vocabulary at first is now confidently naming all the main 3D shapes and even explained their properties without prompting.

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