It may involve giving subject advice from experience, being reassuring and having sound knowledge of the course and content. In doing so, tutors can aid students to develop a genuine interest in the…

To provide communication, patience and compassion. It is very important for tutors to accept each student for their own strengths and shortcomings in order to help students perform well academically. It also is important to be creative with techniques and materials that are not used in a classroom setting. Examples of this are customizing reading…

I think one of my…

It is also very important a tutor listens to the…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is make them feel at ease within the subject being taught.

Inside College ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Naethan practised multiplication tables up to 12 and worked on basic equivalent fractions with denominators up to 5.

In Year 8, Alana focused on solving linear equations and multiplying, dividing, adding, and subtracting algebraic fractions.

For Year 10, Priya revised trigonometry concepts including SOHCAHTOA and tackled complex geometry word problems using diagrams for visual support.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3, one student found times tables confusing and struggled to grasp their logic, so "drew a sheet out of all the time tables as well as drawings to help."

In Year 8, messy or unclear working when solving fraction problems meant that key steps were missed—this made self-checking difficult.

A Year 10 student lost concentration during multi-step algebraic word problems, often needing prompts to refocus and start writing down equations.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for Maths Methods tests experienced stress under time pressure and ran out of time to attempt unfamiliar questions, impacting confidence.

Recent Achievements

One College Park tutor noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to ask for help now regularly voices doubts during algebra lessons, leading to quicker understanding of word problems and more logical solutions.

In a recent high school session, a student who used to make errors in NAPLAN-style questions started double-checking his work independently and correcting mistakes on the spot.

Meanwhile, a younger student who struggled with fractions in homework was able to redo those problems successfully during tutoring and talked through her steps aloud—finishing even the bonus question without extra support.

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 St Peters Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Peter's College.
