Schools are inherently unable to support every individual students educational needs due to the nature of the student being one of many in a classroom. One of the most important things a tutor does for students is giving the student the proper opportunity to be brought to the expected level of competence and beyond. Identifying core…

Above all else, I believe that tutors should be patient and also question their own understanding so that they can teach at a more effective level. I think that patience is my biggest strength as a tutor. Assisting people with disabilities during the HSC reflected that I have the patience and understanding to clarify content for others.…

Being able to step in the student's shoes and see how they are interpreting the concepts, and creating a tutoring basis to make it easier for them to understand. Being confident in what I know in regard to the subjects I am familiar with, allows me to correctly pass on my knowledge to others. But I am modest to see where I'm wrong and lacking,…

Being able to adapt to a student's learning style is one of the most important things you can do for a student because not every student will be receptive to a single teaching style. I'm good at putting myself of the shoes of a student and being able to see the perspective of someone with a learning gap. When you've been teaching a subject for…

I think it is to be a good and trustworthy guidance where they can come towards to share their thoughts and be themselves. I hope to be a tutor where students want to learn from me, not just with knowledge but with who I am, my attitude, my values. If they can take away any hope or new goal or joy for them to pursue while tutoring with me, that…

I consider patience to be the most important virtue in a tutor, setting small checkpoints between certain topics is a good strategy. A tutor should always pause and ask if the student has any questions or doubts about the concept. A tutor should make the student feel comfortable around them and they should not hesitate to ask any questions - no…

Kai is really enjoying his lessons with Noah! He's got a great way of connecting with Kai. Kai mentioned that Noah explains the reasons instead of doing things by rote. He gets him to think before explaining the answer. Very happy with him!

Inside Castle CoveTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student James focused on fraction revision and practised finding arc lengths in circles, using diagrams to visualise questions.

In Year 9, Aja worked through non-right angle trigonometry and quadratic equations by solving bearing questions from past exams.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Trai tackled factorising quadratics using the PSF method and reviewed topics from a recent assessment to target areas needing improvement.

Recent Challenges

He kept trying to apply extra steps that weren't needed, especially under time pressure. This slowed progress in timed assessments, making it harder to finish confidently.

In Year 7 algebra, another student repeatedly forgot negative signs when simplifying expressions—missing these details meant having to rework problems from scratch during revision.

For a Year 4 learner working on decimals and money questions, forgetting to bring homework sheets left less time for targeted practice in lessons. The result was unfinished work and some confusion about rounding rules during class checks.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Castle Cove noticed a Year 8 student who used to freeze on percentage and fraction conversions now confidently works through them without hesitation, especially after mastering the last few tricky steps by herself.

In high school, one Year 10 student who often guessed quietly when stuck with factorising is now openly pinpointing her errors and self-correcting during lessons—a big shift from before.

Meanwhile, a senior student struggling with logarithms recently identified which log laws to apply and solved questions independently after missing key classes last term, finishing the set without needing further hints.

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