English Tutor Callaghan, NSW
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…

English Tutor Mayfield, NSW
I believe a great tutor goes beyond just increasing a student's marks- they are able to act as a mentor and oversee a student's education holistically. For example, I also guided one of my previous students through his year 12 year, helping him with the university admissions process and scholarship applications, where he is now studying…

English Tutor Wickham, 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,…

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…

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…

Inside KotaraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Julian revised faces, edges, and vertices of 3D shapes before moving on to addition and subtraction with both two-digit and larger numbers.

In Year 9, Olivia focused on probability using Venn diagrams and two-way tables, working through worded problems to build confidence.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Lucas practised financial mathematics by interpreting multi-step worded questions about compound interest and depreciation, including rearranging relevant equations for his upcoming topic test.

Recent Challenges

During Year 11 Chemistry sessions, one student struggled to interpret questions using formulas correctly—"review of tritation calculations" came up repeatedly.

A Year 8 student's test performance flagged weak time management; as a tutor observed, "we identified Julian's weakness's such as time management during tests."

In Year 3 maths, confusion over unit places and writing numbers beyond thousands meant extra effort went into reworking basic steps rather than building new skills.

For a senior student preparing for HSC Physics, shallow formal responses revealed that exam question depth was not being addressed, which became evident when trial results fell below expectations.

Recent Achievements

A Kotara tutor noticed a big shift with one high school student who used to get stuck on multi-step financial maths questions—now, he works through conversions and period changes on his own and even asks for harder problems.

Another secondary student has become much more thorough; instead of skipping steps when tackling worded probability questions, he now writes everything down and checks each stage, which led him to correctly solve problems he struggled with just weeks ago.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner who found shape names confusing at first can now confidently name all main 3D shapes without hesitation.

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 Charlestown Library, walyamayi—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kotara South Public School.
