English Tutor Fern Bay, NSW
I believe an important component of tutoring is patience, ensuring that the student completely understands the topic before moving on. This leads into following up. Following up the previous session for a couple of minutes in the next lesson is highly beneficial as the student can show their understanding of the topic, allowing the opportunity to…

English Tutor Carrington, NSW
Making a student as confident as possible is the upmost important aspect of tutoring in my mind. This is because, no matter how many hours are spent studying, if a student is not confident within themselves, in exam settings they will constantly doubt themselves and make avoidable mistakes. Therefore, building students confidence is the most…

English Tutor Carrington, NSW
In my opinion, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to provide them with a supportive and encouraging learning environment. This means taking the time to understand each student's unique needs, learning style, and interests, and tailoring the tutoring approach accordingly. A good tutor should also be patient and compassionate,…

English Tutor Hamilton South, NSW
I believe a tutor needs empathy. The tutor needs to make a targeted effort to understand their student. A student's weaknesses, strengths, drive and thinking style all play an integral role in a student's learning process and thus should be taken into account when developing lessons. Individual needs must be considered to facilitate realistic and…

We are extremely happy with our tutor Neema. He has been so encouraging for Sophie. She is feeling more confident already.

Inside KooragangTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Tyler focused on fraction equivalence and telling the time to the quarter hour, using clock-face diagrams for practice.

In Year 7, Tyler completed his maths booklet in preparation for a grading exam, working specifically on multiplying decimals and rounding numbers up and down.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sarah reviewed HSC past paper questions with an emphasis on interpreting normal distributions (including z-scores) and applying the 68-95-99.7 rule to real data sets.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, exam nerves repeatedly disrupted performance—"she knows all the content well, but when gets into an exam she over complicated problems and stresses which hinders her performance."

During algebra sessions with a Year 7 student, layout and organization in their workbook became an obstacle; messy work made it harder to catch calculation errors without a calculator.

In another senior lesson on standard deviation for the HSC, steps were not memorized, so tackling unfamiliar questions proved daunting.

After missing homework in primary maths, one student couldn't spot patterns with decimals—this left gaps that slowed progress during place value drills.

Recent Achievements

One Kooragang tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 7 student who previously relied heavily on calculators for algebra—now, he's working through problems step-by-step and showing all his workings without prompting.

In a recent high school session, another student who once hesitated to make decisions during simultaneous equations confidently chose her own solving method and explained her reasoning.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who struggled with telling time managed to complete an entire worksheet independently this week—a first for her since starting tutoring.

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