Tutor West Wallsend, NSW
The purpose of a tutor is to provide a one-on-one learning experience; thus, a tutor should be able to adapt to their student's specific needs. A tutor needs to identify weak areas and improve them but also foster confidence in students strong areas. Obviously, a tutor should be well versed in the content that they're teaching. Please note,…

The most important thing by far is engagement. Tutoring is good, although it can only do so much if the students interest is elsewhere. The best thing a tutor can do is help the student engage more in school as the student will spend 80% of their time in the classroom and 20% with a tutor so using that 80% to your advantage is the most important…

A tutor should be able to build upon the basics and the foundation of a subject, most exams require an application of the basics. Students can only achieve full marks if they can apply their core knowledge in different ways to suit a question. Hence, the most important thing a tutor can do is teach ways to apply the basics. In math, there are…

To give extra help and attention to the student and make it easier for them to learn not just in the subject but also in other things. I feel it may be my way of explaining things in a very simple way and using an analogy once in a while since I would use these to understand them myself when I was in…

I think it is important to create a casual, comfortable learning space for students where they feel comfortable talking to me as another student rather than a teacher. I feel this benefits them by not feeling that they are in a classroom, but rather simply discussing topics of difficulty with a colleague or mentor, ultimately increasing enthusiasm…

Based on my experience, I believe tutoring goes beyond the instructional role to supplement class-room teaching in three ways: Empathic: Face-to-face or personalized tutoring is intended to be remedial in nature. At times, the lack of understanding of some fundamental concepts from the prior years causes difficulty for the student. The tutor…

Inside WakefieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Tiffany completed a diagnostic maths assessment to identify areas needing support and later worked on financial maths topics like wages, salaries, and calculating gross/net pay.

Year 11 student Lucy practised solving simultaneous equations and reviewed key HSC trigonometry concepts, including bearings and triangle area, using recent past exam questions.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student James focused on organic chemistry by exploring hydrocarbons and their IUPAC nomenclature and revising haloalkanes and alcohols as functional groups for an upcoming test.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 mathematics, a student repeatedly avoided writing out full solutions when solving equations—"she skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors," as one tutor noted. This made it difficult to spot where misunderstandings occurred, especially during factorising tasks.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student preparing for HSC trials showed shallow responses on formal practice questions and left some exam-style problems unfinished due to poor time management; this limited opportunities to review and improve answers under pressure.

In Year 6 maths, another student struggled to remember area formulas for complex shapes because key notes were missing from their workbook after lessons.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Wakefield noticed a Year 11 student who used to rely heavily on hints now confidently solves simultaneous equations using both substitution and elimination without prompting.

In a recent session, a high schooler who previously struggled with algebraic expressions managed to expand brackets correctly, even when the signs varied—a real step up from last week's confusion.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who hesitated with maths vocabulary at first was soon identifying all major 3D shapes independently and even remembered most multiplication facts by heart before the session ended.

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 Sugar Valley Library, kirantakamyari—or at your child's school (with permission), like Fassifern Public School.
