I believe a truly effective tutor can accurately pinpoint the source of a student's struggle with a particular topic, and propose the correct solution. For example, trouble with foundational concepts often stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of the basics, therefore it is important to readdress the theory portion of the topic and provide…

As a tutor/educator the most important factor to foster with your student is that you are honest and patient. Each student develops at their own pace. My strengths include: *I have found that working with special needs students has helped me to become a more compassionate and patient educator. *My ability to review my own methods if progress is…

I believe that tutors should provide all-round mentorship to students and that this is one of the most important things that can come of tutoring; helping them to feel more confident in approaching problems they have in their everyday lives and to search for the answers to the questions that they have about the world around them. I am very patient…

The most important things a tutor can do for students is to take the steps to give the student a deeper appreciation for their knowledge, and show real world applications for the skills taught. A student is more likely to pay attention if there is something they know they gain from it, rather than just higher grades. My ability to teach on a…

I think that whilst having adaptive teaching methods is important, ensuring the student constantly feels supported and motivated by the tutor is vital. For me, in school no matter how much I was struggling (especially in maths) I found that having a great, understanding teacher, allowed me to not be afraid of asking ‘stupid’ questions. So for…

Engage and stir their curiosity. Build relationships and have their trust and respect. Be patient and build their confidence. Most importantly, make them realise their potential.

Ultimately, there are two things. Teaching a student to be curious, and teaching a student how to learn. Education systems are designed to filter all kids through a rigid, structured system, which, although brilliant for most, loses the spirit of why we learn. Because we are curious! We like to see how things work, to investigate our world and…

I think the most important thing is approaching learning with compassion and patience.

I think it's important to understand each person's learning style; if they are not understanding what you are saying,…

A tutors responsibility isn't to provide answers, but to guide students to find their way of learning and to provide alternative approaches when tackling problem scenarios or questions. To be a successful tutor is to develop students mindsets and enable them to eventually trust in their instinct and decide for themselves the best way to go about a…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student in my opinion is to give them guidance on how to be successful in the subject we tutor. At the end of the day we only see them once or twice a week. We can't teach them everything. So it is important that we guide them on how to learn and study in order to be successful. Myt strength lies…

Helga was really good thank you. We will continue with weekly lessons for the foreseeable future.

Inside BensvilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Zac worked through all four operations with fractions, including mixed and improper fractions, and practiced interpreting multiplication in worded questions.

For Year 8, Lily focused on factorising and expanding algebraic expressions, building up to more complex factorisation tasks the following week.

In Year 9, Sarah explored data analysis by identifying outliers and discussing the spread and location of data using different types of graphs.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, one student left both notes and school workbook at school, resulting in limited revision and no clear structure for preparing for an exam.

"She did not do her homework set for her last week," as a tutor noted of another middle years learner; this reluctance to complete assigned tasks led to less content covered during lessons.

In Year 10, messy graphing layouts meant correct answers were sometimes lost on the page.

A senior student preparing for HSC lacked confidence across syllabus topics, hesitating to attempt unfamiliar material and sticking mainly to well-rehearsed questions—this narrowed exposure right before assessment time.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Bensville noticed that a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with graphing questions now confidently uses his calculator and quickly recognises more complex graphs on his own.

In Year 8, another student went from staying quiet during problem solving to actively speaking up, tackling fractions and mixed numbers independently after struggling last term.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who previously needed lots of prompting for multi-step currency problems started drawing her own diagrams and finished all the addition and subtraction questions without any hints by the end of the 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 Kincumber Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Coast Christian School.
