A tutor/ teacher is not only responsible for bridging the gap a student has in his or her studies; but also, to inspire the student to become a better version of themselves so as to reach their full potential in their lives. A tutor is also a mentor who guides students both academically and personally by helping them overcome their innate fears…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to build their confidence and help them become independent, capable learners. Rather than simply giving answers, a good tutor teaches students how to think critically, ask questions, and work through challenges on their own. It’s about creating a space where they feel safe to…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to empathise. It’s essential to understand how a student feels—whether it’s about the content itself or the teaching style being used. A tutor who can step into a student’s shoes is better able to identify their struggles, adapt their approach, and create a supportive learning…

I consider patience to be an incredible skill for tutoring and most teaching jobs as it may or may not take time to reach the students. And when it does take time it is important to understand that the communication maybe blurred, thus it takes reinterpreting what was said maybe many times to reach the student. My strength would be considered my…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to ensure that the child fully understands the lesson, and finds purpose in it.

If a child is passionate about a subject, they will automatically study…

So as such, if the tutor can enable a…

Ali

Inside Catherine FieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Lily worked on identifying factor pairs and practiced multiplication drills to build number fluency.

In Year 9, Ibrahim focused on solving linear equations and practiced more advanced Pythagoras' theorem problems, including rearranging equations and multiplying negative numbers.

Meanwhile, Year 12 Kris dedicated time to HSC English essay writing, analyzing film studies and refining written responses using past exam questions as practice.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, one student's statistics test showed that incomplete revision—mainly revisiting easier problems and neglecting trickier, data-based questions—left gaps in exam performance. As a tutor observed, "he needed more practice with interpreting graphs under timed conditions."

For a Year 11 English task, feedback wasn't fully integrated into subsequent essay drafts; structuring and use of formal language remained inconsistent even after teacher notes were shared.

Meanwhile, in Year 8 maths, an over-reliance on calculator use for basic multiplication slowed progress when tackling non-calculator sections. In the moment, this led to uncertainty and last-minute corrections during tests.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Catherine Field noticed a Year 11 student who'd previously rushed through maths problems is now breaking down financial maths questions step by step, double-checking answers with a calculator instead of guessing.

In Year 9 English, one student who used to struggle with essay planning now independently identifies key film themes and takes detailed notes for exam prep—showing new initiative during sessions.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student has moved from hesitating over two-digit subtraction to completing these sums smoothly and even explaining the "friends of 20" strategy out loud before finishing their homework early.

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 Narellan Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Gledswood Hills Public School.
