Give them the understanding and also the encouragement to succeed. Doing the work for the child isn't the way a child will learn. I have worked with children five years and younger for the last nine years, which gives me a leg up on how younger children might learn and how I can help those children. I have been working casually as a teacher in…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is build trust and confidence. A student should feel comfortable asking questions without fear of being judged. Beyond improving grades, a tutor should help students develop study habits, problem-solving skills, and self-belief so they can succeed on their own too. My main strengths are patience…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to empathise. To learn about why the student is having difficulties and as such, problem solving and troubleshooting, taking each individual factor into account. This helps to create a nurturing and safe environment for students, and when not in constant fear of being wrong, students can…

Honestly, I think one of the most important things a tutor can do is help the student feel comfortable and confident. It’s not just about getting better at Maths, English, or Science—it’s about helping them believe that they can get better. A lot of students come in already feeling nervous or like they’re ‘bad’ at something, and I…

A tutor should give honest time and effort to share the knowledge with his students.A tutor should also learn how to teach studnets based in their strengths and weaknesses.

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.
