The best thing a tutor can do for a student is without a doubt making them love the material.

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is listen to them. This is the only way to know what they don't understand and where they need help. Positive feedback is also essential in tutoring. If the student feels like they aren't making any progress and that they will never understand the problem, then they may give up all…

A tutor can make a student love the subject he/she hates. The most important thing for a tutor is to understand the student, his/her interests, aptitude, and what he/she is inclined towards.

Inside LynehamTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Amity worked on multiplication and addition strategies to build number fluency.

In Year 8, Lara reviewed introductory algebra, focusing on applying variables in worded problems, and tackled a multi-step trigonometry question involving two triangles from her previous exam.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Owen focused on solving simultaneous equations using elimination and substitution methods, then applied these skills to contextual word problems for extra practice.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student often relied on having notes or solution formulas at hand, especially when working through algebraic problems—"needs to write working out down," a tutor observed after he skipped showing steps in x + x = 6. This meant confusion lingered between addition and multiplication of unknowns.

In Year 8 Science, one student did not bring a notebook for class notes, which led to trouble recalling key facts during revision.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner hesitated to attempt fraction questions without prompting, tending to give up quickly if unsure—confidence slipped away as blank space grew on the page.

Recent Achievements

One Lyneham tutor noticed a big shift in Kenzie, a Year 10 student, who used to hesitate with complex equations—now she pushes through tough inequality questions and figures out most mistakes on her own before the tutor steps in.

In senior high school, Owen recently made a breakthrough connecting math derivations to his physics experiments; after struggling to turn raw results into meaningful data last term, he now confidently sets up his lab reports independently.

For Year 4, Elijah managed to master telling time on analogue clocks by the end of one session—a concept he'd previously found confusing. He mastered this skill in one session.

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 Dickson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Brindabella Christian College.
