Tutor Darwin, NT
I feel the most important thing that a tutor can do is to listen to the students as they explain what they don't understand and to help fully explain the solution of the problem to the student and to verify that the students understands the new concepts. I am patient with the students and I can work through many examples with the student until he…

Tutor Jingili, NT
One of the most important things a tutor can do is understand a students potential and pushing them to do to their best. I think I would be a good strict tutor who would push people to do their best. To me, the best tutoring style is one that caters to the specific student in their best learning…

Tutor Wagaman, NT
A tutor should be patient and never say something is easy. They should always encourage and find ways to explain something step-by-step such that everything is explained and can be linked back to a central idea. I am patient, friendly, and I can see and understand why something can be difficult to understand. I encourage and can relate to finding…

Tutor Casuarina, NT
From my experience with tutors, I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student are. Recognising someone's improvements, recalling how a student has overcome a challenge in the past can be a great motivator for the present as well as build self-confidence. Being a role model, students will be influenced by a tutor's method of…

Tutor Casuarina, NT
I believe one of the most important thing would be to build a student's confidence, teaching them to feel positive about themselves. Perhaps the student feels incapable of solving problems,despite possessing the ability. Thus, it is a tutor's duty to show students that they are capable and believe in themselves. It is also important that the…

Local Reviews

My 10 year old daughter has been working with Zeel this year. She didn't know her times tables at all. After tutoring sessions, she now can write her times tables, and recite most of them. She has developed confidence in her approach to Maths, and her school teachers have noticed a definite improvement. Zeel has been a great fit for Holly, and responds well to her teaching.

Inside The NarrowsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Elise focused on adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators, as well as working through a reading comprehension worksheet to develop inference skills.

In Year 10, Amelie tackled trigonometric functions and the unit circle, using diagrams to explore exact values in both degrees and radians.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Michael concentrated on algebraic equations and fractions, along with practical vocabulary exercises to strengthen his maths and English foundations.

Recent Challenges

In Year 6 English, one student often rushed into reading comprehension tasks without carefully reading questions, leading to missed details and incomplete answers—she was diving straight into the questions before she even understood the content.

In Year 9 Maths, messy working and inconsistent layout on worksheets made it hard for both tutor and student to follow multi-step problems.

A senior student preparing for exams in trigonometry struggled with organization: forgetting revision notes meant key concepts weren't reviewed in time.

Missed homework was also common across grades, so lesson time had to be spent catching up rather than moving forward.

Recent Achievements

One tutor in The Narrows recently saw Amelie, a high school student, independently spot and fix her own test mistakes—something she hesitated to do before.

In another session, Elise (Year 7) started outlining every step of her maths working unprompted, whereas she used to skip or guess parts when unsure.

For a younger student, Michael (primary), has begun expanding his short stories outside lesson time for the first time after previously relying entirely on in-session help.

Amelie finished plotting hyperbolas correctly on her own after struggling with this just a week ago.

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 City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ludmilla Primary School.
