Kayla
Tutor Douglas Park, NSW
One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to not only focus on assessment performance, but to help a student to love learning. I have recognised that merely rote learning and constantly completing practice questions can only allow a student to improve so far- a student must have interest in what they are learning and have a…

Anisa
Tutor Camden Park, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be there for them, both through aid in academic studies and through personal encouragement. A tutor needs to make sure the student feels safe and understood, seen and heard. Therefore, I believe a tutor needs to just have faith in their students. That is the best and most important thing a…

Inside Douglas ParkTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
