Have the ability to adapt to the students needs. I understand that I may need to prioritise a students upcoming exam content over the schedule that we have discussed. Or respond to and mark drafts that I receive at the late hours of the night before an assignment is due. It’s imperative that I tend to the students needs and ensure…

Modern History Tutor Eagle Vale, NSW
Helping understanding topics and key areas is important, however for me, giving students the confidence to approach new topics with a 'can-do' attitude helps them in wider areas of their life and increases their self belief. Unleashing the potential that they may not realise they have. I consider myself a strong tutor due to my qualities of being…

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…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to empathise. To learn about why the student is having difficulties and as such, problem solving and troubleshooting, taking each individual factor into account. This helps to create a nurturing and safe environment for students, and when not in constant fear of being wrong, students can…

If students aren’t interested in mathematics or other subjects, a tutor can help to increase their knowledge, and it can increase their interest in the subject(s). I believe increasing their knowledge is one of the most important aspects of tutoring I have many years experience working as a Structural Engineer (and there’s a story about…

Modern History Tutor Spring Farm, NSW
A tutor must act as a mentor for the student to grow in their goals. When I was tutoring primary students I found that their teacher would often just provide them with answers and ask them to memorise it rather than lead them to reach the answers themselves. I disagree with this mentality, finding that the most important aspect of tutoring is…

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.
