The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to communicate effectively and enjoyment. Without clear communication, it is unlikely the student will grasp the concepts properly and would only lead to a lack of confidence in their ability. Without enjoyment, the student is likely to feel miserable learning about the subject, and would…

Not regurgitate the same information given on google or at schools regarding their difficult topics, but instead to approach the student and the lesson with the ambition to simplify complexities in your own intuitive way. This is with respect to the student's preferential medium for learning, which you as a tutor need to manipulate effectively to…

Maths can often be challenging and students need to understand the concept rather than memorise. As a tutor, the most important thing is to tailor their lessons based on each student, as each and everyone has a different learning speed and ability. This ensures feedback and goals are realistic and achievable. I can sympathise with my student's…

I think that tutors need to be supportive of their students, which can only be achieved by creating trust with them. By getting to know students, their goals, their strengths and weaknesses, as well as their personalities and work styles, a tutor should aim to know a student so that the student is able to receive support from someone they know and…

Being patient in allowing students to fully grasp a topic or idea before proceeding.

Recognise HOW a student actually learns. One of the hardest things a student has to learn is what method of studying actually suits them and once you find that the rest seems to fall in place.

Local Reviews

Thank you again for recommending tiger, he's been great.
James

Inside BlairmountTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Sarah focused on multiplying and dividing whole numbers, as well as simplifying fractions through targeted worksheets.

In Year 9, James tackled trigonometric ratios—sin, cos, and tan—and practiced applying the Pythagorean theorem to right-angled triangles while also reviewing bearings and triangle angle properties.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Emily worked on linear relationships by finding equations for straight lines in both intercept and general forms, along with identifying gradients and y-intercepts using real-world examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 3 student often resisted writing answers independently, preferring to discuss and have the tutor write them—"he is defiant with writing the answers himself"—which limited his engagement in comprehension tasks.

In Year 9 mathematics, one student struggled with organizing solutions, making it harder to follow their algebraic working; as a tutor observed, "I advised the student to organize his solutions and try to practice writing complete solutions."

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student repeatedly mixed up the gradient and y-intercept when rearranging linear equations, leading to confusion during graphing tasks. This resulted in extra time spent clarifying basics rather than progressing onto advanced content.

Recent Achievements

One Blairmount tutor noticed a Year 4 student who used to fidget and hesitate now eagerly joins in with rhyming activities, staying focused throughout the session.

In high school, one student who previously relied on step-by-step help for geometry problems has started explaining his reasoning aloud and tackling questions more independently, even applying new strategies without prompting.

Another secondary student made a breakthrough with quadratic equations: after struggling to factorise non-monic quadratics, she managed to use the general formula correctly and began setting equations equal to zero unprompted. She finished by completing several examples using her own working out.

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 Campbelltown City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Blairmount Public School.
