Not give the answers but help support the learning process and give guidance when the child needs it most. There is a difference between doing all the work for the child and actually teaching how the problem can be approached and observing how the student does it him/herself. If the child is stuck on a concept, it is my responsibility to help the…

Building confidence is the most important thing a tutor can possibly do for a student. It's very important for a tutor to listen a student's worry points and problems and guide him accordingly to overcome them without breaking his confidence. It's necessary to be a good mentor and help students just not academically but advice them on any…

Having empathy, because not all content comes too easy for students as it does for us, obviously. Having patience, because it can be frustrating if a tutor just expects a student to "get it" immediately. Being kind. This seems obvious but you may be surprised the number of teachers I've had and met who are not kind, and they are extremely hard…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for their students is to build a relationship. This foundation will help students to have a trust in their tutor and this will encourage them to share their problems. If the tutor understands the exact problem the student is struggling with, then they can alter their teaching techniques according to…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to give them the confidence and strategies to tackle problems even when you, as a tutor, are not there. I do this by offering skills and strategies rather than answers, and allowing students to have a go at a problem themselves before stepping in. As well as skills, confidence is…

The most important thing for a tutor to do for a student is providing as much information as they can.

I think the most important things a tutor can do are to create a supportive environment, encourage curiosity, and build the student’s confidence in their own abilities.

The most important things as a tutor is avoid giving shortcuts to the students. If a student is struggling with a problem, I will let them think first, guide them with small things with only giving slight hints, and help them slowly reach to the answer themselves. Instead of just giving the formula or answers, I focus on helping them understand…

Inside CamperdownTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Daniel practised solving simultaneous equations and tackled algebraic word problems, focusing on setting up equations from written scenarios.

In Year 11, Chloe reviewed financial maths topics such as annuities and recursion, alongside graphing parabolas and factorising quadratic expressions using worked examples.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student explored maximisation and minimisation of functions in calculus, working through optimisation questions and interpreting their results in real-world contexts.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Science, a student mixed up units and directions for electric field lines, making it difficult to answer application questions accurately.

For a Year 10 Physics session, confusion over which equations applied to specific problems slowed progress—"he needed reminders to pick the right formula," noted one tutor.

In Year 12 Maths, another struggled with laying out each calculation step clearly, leading to "numbers getting confused in his head" during trig questions. These moments meant extra time spent retracing steps instead of building confidence for upcoming assessments.

Recent Achievements

One Camperdown tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 11 student who used to freeze up when faced with hard calculus problems; now, he's confidently tackling challenging sequences and series questions from past papers without hesitation.

In another session, a Year 10 student who previously guessed her way through graphing tasks started breaking down each question methodically—she now asks clarifying questions instead of rushing ahead.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who struggled to finish maths exercises alone was able to complete every problem independently for the first time last week.

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 Newtown Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Newtown North Public School.
