A tutor should strive in revelaling different perspectives in a world they can intuitively grasp. This engages the student in learning and fuels their passion in learning and adaptation in cascading for the next level. With a year teaching programming I excel in deconstructing a concept into a more tangible world. Ranging from live demonstrations…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student are building their confidence, making learning engaging, and helping them truly understand concepts rather than just memorizing them. I always try to break down complex topics into simpler ideas, adapt my teaching to the students learning style, and create a supportive environment…

As a tutor, I believe that the most important thing I can bring to a student is a different perspective on the subject matter they are studying. While teachers and textbooks can be great resources, they often present the material in a standardized and one-size-fits-all way that may not resonate with every student. By providing a different voice…

The tutor can change the life of a student. A tutor is like a mentor for any student. Teacher teach concepts but the tutor makes sure that the student understands how to apply that concept. I had a great tutor during my primary school who helped me to understand what is the purpose of my life and what is the goal of my life. I want to set a great…

Empathise: A tutor should provide encouragement, build confidence, and create a safe space where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. I try to think of many ways to explain a concept to a student. You never know which approach might work for a student. So, adaptability would be one strength. I think another one is…

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 LyonsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Tom worked on addition and subtraction of fractions, as well as converting between proper and improper fractions using visual examples.

For Year 10, Sarah focused on graphing and manipulating parabolas along with factorising and expanding quadratics to strengthen her algebraic fluency.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Daniel tackled trigonometric identities through targeted exercises and also reviewed the unit circle and trig functions for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student faced time management issues during exams, often spending too long on challenging questions and leaving easier ones unfinished. As one tutor noted, "She spent too much effort on questions that she felt less confident in."

In Year 9 algebra, a reluctance to show working made it hard to pinpoint errors—steps were skipped or left out entirely.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student regularly forgot previous lesson content without extra revision at home; this meant re-learning basics instead of progressing.

During financial maths in Year 11, not writing all unknowns before solving made marking and self-checking difficult, slowing feedback.

Recent Achievements

One Lyons tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to rearrange formulas now confidently tackles unfamiliar arithmetic and geometric progression questions on her own, even solving for unknowns without prompting.

In a recent high school session, a Year 9 student who was initially confused by translations in coordinate geometry quickly shifted gears—after one clear explanation, he independently worked through new problems with no extra help.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who often avoided tricky long division now volunteers to attempt these problems first during sessions and recently scored 97% on a multiplication tables quiz.

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 Woden Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Lyons Early Childhood School.
