An important aspect of tutoring is not hindering the student's creativity. I believe every student has a different learning style.

It is our responsibility to encourage students to be creative with…

Inside CarlingfordTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Alice focused on solving ratio word problems and worked through homework covering basic algebraic equations.

For Year 9, Daniel practised using angle rules for parallel lines and calculated the area of polygons as part of his current schoolwork.

In Year 11, Michael completed revision on probability and interest topics, including working through several trial paper questions to prepare for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 7 student struggled to recall key decimal and unit conversion rules, which slowed progress in multi-step maths questions—"he needed a breakdown and stronger understanding of certain concepts."

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for financial maths became stuck when analysing payment tables, hesitating over which formula to use and losing valuable test time.

In English, one high schooler's motivation dipped after setbacks with creative writing, making it harder to experiment with new techniques.

At primary level, a child repeatedly forgot homework due to focusing on practice tests; this left gaps in revision and caused confusion when similar topics reappeared.

Recent Achievements

One Carlingford tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to make frequent "silly mistakes" in maths now actively checks his working for errors and spends more time reading questions before answering.

In Year 11, a student who previously hesitated with annuities is confidently using future value tables on her own and tackling harder examples without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who struggled with rounding numbers has started explaining the rounding process out loud before solving, showing new independence during problem-solving. Last session, she rounded up to the nearest ten and completed all calculations correctly without reminders.

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 Carlingford Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like James Ruse Agricultural High School.
