Modern History Tutor Hornsby, NSW
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to empower them to become independent learners through gaining confidence in their abilities to learn. By equipping students with the tools and strategies to think critically and solve problems on their own, a tutor can instil confidence and resilience that extends beyond the…

A tutor should provide a safe space for the student, both academically and mentally. It is important that a tutor empathizes with the students and provide them vivid and interesting perspectives about the subjects which goes beyond school learning. Furthermore, it is needed that the tutor - student relationship be a team work, where the tutor is…

A tutor\'s first duty must be to create a comfortable environment for the student to learn. This means serving as a friend, and as someone who is receptive and understanding to the needs of the student. It is through this that students will grow and be most efficient in their studies. As a humanities oriented tutor, my strengths lie in my ability…

The most important things tutors can do is to be enthusiastic and engaging about the subject their teaching their student because this then allows students to believe too, that the subject they're learning is not boring or bad. Moreover, tutors must have confidence in their student in succeeding and doing well, in which the Pygmalion effect proves…

a tutor must strive to find what a student lack and try to complement it. For example , a slacking student , in most cases, might be just lacking vision for his future. A tutor must guide him towards setting targets for himself. I am able to identify learning styles of…

Make them feel confident in their abilities is definitely the most significant.

An open environment, a student should not feel embaressed when asking questions or having a problem with their school work. This can be a problem sometimes in a classroom environment as some children may riddicule the child. This open environment is important for a tutor as the student should feel open to ask questions without peer judgement. A…

I believe one of the things a tutor should find important is to help find coping mechanisms the students can use to ease their exam anxiety. As well as that I believe a tutor should work at the pace that best suits the student rather than the tutor. I believe that I am an outgoing, confident and kind person who can get along with all types of…

Inside DuralTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 Daniel worked through NAPLAN past paper questions covering algebra, graphing, pattern recognition, and probability to strengthen problem-solving across multiple maths strands.

For Year 10 Lukas, lessons focused on manipulating algebraic expressions and solving multi-step equations from both sides, with particular attention to setting out working clearly.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student (no name recorded) tackled applications of geometry using algebra—such as linking geometric shapes to equations—and practiced advanced surface area calculations for solids.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Maths, one student left a significant portion of school work unmarked—"I explained this would need to be rectified in order for me to help him"—making it hard to identify persistent algebra errors before tests.

Another, in Year 11, relied on mental calculations and skipped setting out steps during induction proofs; calculation errors slipped through unchecked as a result.

In Year 5 English, messy handwriting and incomplete creative writing drafts meant feedback was difficult to give or apply.

Each instance slowed progress: time spent deciphering or retracing work replaced opportunities for deeper learning or building confidence.

Recent Achievements

One Dural tutor noticed a Year 11 student who, after previously hesitating to ask questions, has begun openly seeking clarification when tackling complex algebraic expressions—she now pauses to discuss each step rather than guessing.

In a recent high school maths session, another student who struggled with the logic behind geometry formulas was able to justify how and why different area calculations work, showing clear reasoning in her answers.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who often rushed through spelling tasks took the initiative this week to plan out his story before writing, making fewer errors and focusing on structure throughout.

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