I think patience is the most important skill a tutor can have. Some students don't understand a concept right away, I had to have a concept explained to me multiple times before and if the tutor was patient I was not scared to ask. I think as I have been tutored before I knew what worked for me and what didn't so I could apply those ideas. This…

I believe that a tutor should not just provide answers to a problem, but should guide the student to reaching that solution and ensure that they are able to understand the necessary steps. They should also be able to change the way they teach according to the needs of their students, as not everyone learns the same way. A tutor should be…

I believe that a tutor should be extremely cautious in what they say; can everything be supported with a logical statement?

It's not about providing…

Local Reviews
Inside BlakehurstTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 5 student Blake worked on understanding circumference, radius, and diameter of circles as well as converting between units of measurement.
In Year 8, Sam tackled algebra by expanding and simplifying equations before starting to plot points and solve linear equations using step-by-step methods.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex reviewed trigonometry concepts in preparation for an upcoming test and clarified key statistical terminology during the lesson.
Recent Challenges
Solving questions passively led a Year 8 student to frequent calculation errors in long division, especially when several steps were involved.
In a recent Year 10 session, one learner hesitated to write out their working in algebra because of nerves about making mistakes. This slowed progress and made it hard to spot where they went wrong.
A younger student (Year 5) often left homework incomplete and sometimes mixed up key vocabulary like 'radius' and 'diameter,' which then affected their confidence tackling new geometry problems. These habits led to missed connections and slower improvement between sessions.
Recent Achievements
One Blakehurst tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to hesitate with exam-style algebra questions now tackling the trickier ones independently and even working through mistakes without frustration.
A Year 9 session saw a student who'd previously mixed up angle types not only recalling geometric terms but using a protractor correctly for the first time.
In primary, a Year 4 learner has started finishing homework before lessons—something she hadn't done until last month—and solved two-digit multiplication using the "smile" method all on her own during their latest 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 South Hurstville—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mater Dei Catholic Primary School.
