The most important role a tutor plays for a student is to assist the student in developing their own agency in their subject area. When we believe a subject is beyond us, or we're not smart enough to grasp it, we shy away and don't push ourselves as hard. Often this belief has developed from what others have told us or from not having the right…

There are 3 things a tutor must do in order to be successful and respected: listen, care and try (all three of these are my strongest points). My ability to connect with the student, empathise with their weak points and endeavour to provide them with specific questions and techniques will be a great asset for the EzyMath team. My strengths are…

Instil confidence in one's ability and a good work ethic. If a tutor can instil confidence in the student, so that no matter their skill level they know they can perform to the best of their ability, than I believe that's one of the most important achievements they can do. Confidence is key in school and in life, and if the student doesn't believe…

One of the most important things a tutor can offer is patience. Sometimes elements of a subject can be hard to understand and it is our duty as tutors to be patient and help them. We must provide examples and try explaining the problem in different ways — no two students are the same, so we must alter our approach to fit a student's needs. I…

I think a tutor can most importantly help a student with the concepts that they are struggling with in school and also helping students learn concepts that their school hasn't gone through yet so that once they do, it'll be revision for them rather than learning it for the first time. This particularly helped me when I was doing my HSC.…

I believe being able to relate and support your student is the most fundamental aspect of tutoring, as it allows you to effectively gauge where they are struggling and excelling.

Inside Connells PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 Grace reviewed equivalent fractions and practised converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages using her homework tasks.

For Year 11 Olivia, the focus was on algebraic techniques including simplifying expressions and preparing for more advanced year 8 material through challenging problems.

Meanwhile, Aimee in Year 10 worked on mastering indices with targeted revision before her test, followed by a start on key algebra topics from her upcoming assessment chapters.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student, preparing for exams, was observed practicing questions under timed and closed-book conditions; however, she had not completed the assigned homework, which limited feedback on weaker topics.

In Year 9 algebra sessions, a student repeatedly avoided writing full working due to anxiety about errors—leading to confusion in multi-step equations and less effective revision.

For a primary student in Year 5, switching from grid to lined paper was overlooked despite being necessary for the exam format.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 English learner arrived without required notes, making it difficult to apply language techniques in assessment preparation.

Recent Achievements

One Connells Point tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 11 biology student, who moved from just reviewing content to actively structuring exam answers and asking for clarification on tricky topics—something she used to avoid.

In maths, a Year 10 student started choosing when to use the sine or cosine rule on her own, rather than waiting for prompts, showing real independence compared to earlier sessions.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who previously hesitated with fractions was able to simplify and find equivalent fractions without support by the end of her 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 Oatley Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Connells Point Public School.
