Science Tutor Kirrawee, NSW
I think patience is the most important skill a tutor can have. Some students don't understand a concept right away, I had to have a concept explained to me multiple times before and if the tutor was patient I was not scared to ask. I think as I have been tutored before I knew what worked for me and what didn't so I could apply those ideas. This…

I believe that a tutor should be extremely cautious in what they say; can everything be supported with a logical statement? Because the steps the tutors take to construct the answer are how the students learn from them, a tutor must prepare well and be confident and knowledgeable of what they are giving to the students. It's not about providing…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them understand the course content- so they can pass assessment- and also to help them understand other aspects of the subject they need or want to understand, either for the sake of curiosity or because they have some use for it. It is best if this understanding is of a deep…

My weakness is that I often give…

Be a friend. This is how I was taught by my tutors and this is how I taught as well. If there is a deeper bond than that of just a student and teacher, the student really shines.

Inside ComoTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 Grace focused on finding fractions of whole numbers and converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages using homework exercises.

Year 7 Olivia reviewed algebraic concepts, working through more challenging equations to get ready for next year's curriculum.

Meanwhile, Year 8 Aimee prepared for an upcoming test by revising indices and practicing index laws, followed by a brief review of core algebra topics.

Recent Challenges

One Year 8 student left several homework tasks incomplete, making it harder to pinpoint weak spots during lessons ("A better attempt at completing more of the assigned homework would be helpful so that we can focus on the weaknesses during our lesson time").

In Year 10 maths, a student often skipped writing out working for multi-step algebra problems—errors crept in when she solved steps mentally.

For a Year 11 English assessment, another relied too heavily on pre-prepared quotes and didn't plan ahead, leading to rushed test prep and missing techniques.

When feedback was offered, follow-through was sometimes limited, so misunderstandings lingered into new topics.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Como recently noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to tackle algebra now volunteering to expand and factorise expressions on her own, writing out each step clearly without prompting.

Another high school student made a breakthrough with index laws—she not only remembered the rules but applied them independently to more complex questions, after needing reminders just last month.

In a primary session, a younger student who often rushed through spelling quietly asked to check his answers before moving on, showing new care and patience; he finished all his spelling words correctly this time.

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