For me it's very important to adjust to a student's individual needs because each student is different, some may quickly grasp things while others may need more time to. Often kids feel very overwhelmed and anxious when they can't understand or feel rushed. So being patient with them and building a positive environment is a crucial thing that…

The most important things a tutor can do are to build the student’s confidence, foster a growth mindset, and support them with personalised guidance. Beyond helping students complete homework or prepare for exams, a tutor should help them develop independent learning skills and a genuine interest in the subject. A good tutor also identifies the…

I think a lot of the more important parts of tutoring is involved in the study technique and supporting students to find the motivation in themselves to study and do the work. Being the person that has got their back. Although of course the specific content they are learning is important as well. In addition a lot of students struggle with…

Local Reviews

Both daughters were very happy with Emily's tutoring
Ian, Callaghan

Inside CallaghanTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Emily focused on equivalent fractions and converting improper fractions to mixed numbers, using visual models for clarity.

Year 8 student Jack practiced solving two-step algebraic equations and worked through factorization and simplifying algebraic expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Olivia revised coordinate geometry by finding gradients and intercepts of linear equations, then explored rates and ratios with real-world fuel consumption examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student, as noted, "didn't do her homework from last week"—this gap showed up when place value and decimal work felt unfamiliar in the lesson.

In Year 12 Standard Maths, a lack of exam technique led to a disappointing test result: "She knows all the content well, but overcomplicates problems and stresses under pressure."

Another senior student relied heavily on calculator shortcuts for negative number rules, making errors easy to miss until marked.

Meanwhile, one Year 10 learner avoided writing out full algebra steps; this hid small sign mistakes that slowed progress during revision.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Callaghan recently saw a Year 10 student move from needing tree diagrams for probability questions to working out outcomes on her own, showing real independence with this tricky topic.

In Year 11, one student who had always struggled with rates and ratios can now solve these problems without hesitation—this was a big shift from earlier weeks when she avoided them altogether.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who previously needed constant help telling time managed to complete a whole worksheet solo and explained the "past" and "to" sides of the clock out loud at the end.

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