As I previously mentioned, I think the most important thing a tutor can do is to help a student actually understand how to get to the answer. Often in my education I was taught a method of how to get the answer rather than why the answer was correct. I feel like a good tutor does not just aid the student with the question but gives them a thorough…

Changing a students mindset and reigniting their passion for learning. Some students can lose belief in themselves and don’t know their true ability to learn and apply knowledge.

Be there to challenge them but more importantly encourage them.

- Teaching students critical thinking skills instead of just how to solve different types of problems. This enables them to adapt their thinking, and assess and define problems, leaving them with a better chance of independently figuring out problems by themselves e.g. in exams. - Building strong, authentic relationships with students. This helps…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is reinforce whatever they are already learning from school by addressing any of their individual concerns.

The tutor needs to always put the students' needs first.

This is important since every child can reach their full potential, they just sometimes need some guidance. The tutor needs to keep the…

Local Reviews

We are delighted with the process that Olivia is making with Vy.
Nancy

Inside MaianbarTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 Thomas explored addition, subtraction, telling time, identifying shapes, and skip counting to check his foundational maths skills.

For Year 8 Jess, work focused on mastering angle identities—such as co-interior, alternate, corresponding—and recognising complementary and supplementary angles using clear diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 10 Olivia practised applying Pythagoras' Theorem in worded problems and tackled area questions involving circles with given radius or diameter.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 mathematics, one student often rushed to answers without showing working; as a tutor noted, "he skipped steps in algebra, which hid sign errors." This led to time lost correcting avoidable mistakes instead of building deeper understanding.

For a Year 12 humanities subject, difficulty adapting writing style and collecting sources during research tasks meant extra hours spent retracing material later.

Meanwhile, in Year 6, messy handwriting ("the number 8 can look like a 6") caused confusion when reviewing calculations—sometimes the right answer was marked wrong due to legibility issues.

These process habits shaped their day-to-day learning experiences.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Maianbar noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated with probability now confidently tackles more advanced questions, even surprising himself during revision when he handled trickier problems with ease.

Another high schooler, after struggling to link historical sources to essay prompts, recently managed to connect rubric points independently and different perspectives while working through a practice paper.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who once waited for direction now announces answers out loud and insists on "working it out in her head" before checking—she finished all the addition questions without any prompting this week.

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 Bundeena Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Lilli Pilli Public School.
