I think making students feel like they're being seen and heard is a really powerful thing, and to make clear that a tutor isn't just a fixed resource like a book or a video but someone you can interact with and learn from just from someone being there to guide you. I think learning from someone showing you is so much more powerful than just…

Everything begins with building a relationship with the child/student and getting to know them as a person, what interests them inside and outside of school. I believe in my students and their ability to succeed academically and overall and I make this message clear. I tell them, on a regular basis, I believe in you! You can do this! I won't…

I believe the most important things that a tutor can do for a student mainly relies on what the end goal of the student is. If it is just to get the homework done, it will get done. But, for me as a tutor, I would personally make sure that every student understands the concept from the beginning rather than providing a general overview. I believe…

Personalisation. In a classroom, the teacher's attention is divided and the material needs to be taught in ways that the majority understands. However, each student understands and learns differently so having it taylored to the individual (figuring out what they know, what they don't know and what they misunderstood) builds the foundation of…

Do not try to impose the thought that he believes the correct solution and try to explain to the student how to arrive at the reasoning that gives the answer.

I think the greatest gift a tutor can provide to a student is support. School can often be an isolating and intimidating experience, and often students, despite being remarkably talented, feel afraid to take risks and go beyond what is expected of them. A tutor can also make the learning experience far more rewarding and enjoyable. Students feel…

A tutor is a guide to show the right path. Students might stumble a lot, but tutor should hold him up, stand by him and show the right direction.

Inside ChatswoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ava practised working with fractions and finding highest common factors and lowest common multiples using number puzzles.

In Year 8, Ethan focused on solving algebraic equations and graphing linear relationships by interpreting worded problems.

For Year 10, Chloe tackled Pythagoras' theorem along with calculating the perimeter and area of circles, applying these concepts to composite shapes through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Mathematics, "got lazy with working out," leading to skipped steps and careless errors—especially when handling equations. This meant extra time spent fixing mistakes instead of building confidence with new material.

For a Year 10 English essay, hesitation in forming a strong thesis and not expanding on points held back the clarity of arguments; as one tutor observed, "needs some assistance making sure points are strong and clear."

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student was forgetful about earlier concepts within the hour—struggling to recall how ordinals differ from ordering numbers during number tasks.

Recent Achievements

A Chatswood tutoring session saw a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with algebra now working through inverse operations independently and solving for x in multiple ways.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student who often rushed writing tasks is now pausing to brainstorm ideas first, leading to stronger story structure and clearer use of literary techniques.

For a younger learner in Year 5, their tutor noticed that after struggling with fractions, the student can now confidently plot them on number lines and complete related operations without prompting—finishing all perimeter and area questions quickly by the end of the lesson.

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 Picture Willoughby—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of Dolours Catholic Primary School.
