I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is build trust and confidence. A student should feel comfortable asking questions without fear of being judged. Beyond improving grades, a tutor should help students develop study habits, problem-solving skills, and self-belief so they can succeed on their own too. My main strengths are patience…

I believe tutors have the biggest impact on how a student approaches a subject. Speaking from personal experience, I don't think I would've liked studying the subjects I had in year 10, 11 and 12 if I hadn't had good teachers who knew how to make the subjects interesting to learn. A tutor is capable of making studying feel less burdensome and I…

Help a student not only do better or to learn further in a subject but to actually inspire them to want to study and do they best that they can. Because at the end of the day there is only so much a tutor can do, the student has to want to learn as well and thus inspiring to do so is the most important thing a tutor can do in my opinion. I believe…

I think the most important thing tutors can do is create an environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. Too often, students stay quiet out of fear or embarrassment, so it's essential for tutors to slow down and check for genuine understanding, rather than rushing through material. Tutors also shouldn't just…

Local Reviews

Hi Tristan, Thank you for tutoring Macgregor, I have often found it difficult to motivate him to do homework and I have found your calm encouraging and persistent approach works very well with him. You are really great at keeping him engaged and focused at the same time, and work very well with him. You follow everything through in a sound, structured and well thought out way. I find your approach very professional. I have also found you very flexible and reliable and adapt to whatever Macgregor needs. Most importantly, Macgregor loves working with you and enjoys the way work with him. I look forward to seeing you continue to work with Macgregor next term.

Inside ElderslieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Mason worked through worded problems involving one- and two-step equations as well as score and frequency tables, focusing on calculating mean, median, mode, and range.

In Year 10, Olivia tackled data analysis by reviewing dot plots and stem-and-leaf plots alongside practical work on financial mathematics concepts like wages and overtime pay.

For Year 12, Ethan concentrated on advanced calculus skills such as differentiation and integration of logarithmic functions, using recent exam questions to apply these methods in context.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a student did not review geometry before a test, which left her underprepared—"only had one week before," as the tutor observed.

In Year 11 Extension Maths, summary sheets were not made ahead of new content on primitive functions; missing this step slowed recall during lessons.

For a Year 9 lesson, homework set to consolidate understanding of logs and exponentials was left incomplete, so gaps remained undetected until next session.

In senior calculus (Year 12), an over-reliance on calculator routines meant "needs to work on recognising differentiation rules" by hand, stalling progress when unfamiliar curves appeared in practice papers.

Recent Achievements

One Elderslie tutor noted a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to get stuck on rearranging equations—she now independently chooses the right method and finishes all practice questions without prompting.

A Year 11 student, who previously hesitated to attempt tricky trig identities, recently volunteered to explain her approach aloud during their session and successfully proved two new identities solo.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student has started breaking up irregular shapes into smaller parts for area problems after initially needing step-by-step help; last lesson, he tackled the hardest shape in his workbook on his own.

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 Camden Council Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mawarra Public School.
