I think that whilst having adaptive teaching methods is important, ensuring the student constantly feels supported and motivated by the tutor is vital. For me, in school no matter how much I was struggling (especially in maths) I found that having a great, understanding teacher, allowed me to not be afraid of asking ‘stupid’ questions. So for…

I believe that tutors should provide all-round mentorship to students and that this is one of the most important things that can come of tutoring; helping them to feel more confident in approaching problems they have in their everyday lives and to search for the answers to the questions that they have about the world around them. I am very patient…

The most important things a tutor can do for students is to take the steps to give the student a deeper appreciation for their knowledge, and show real world applications for the skills taught. A student is more likely to pay attention if there is something they know they gain from it, rather than just higher grades. My ability to teach on a…

A tutors responsibility isn't to provide answers, but to guide students to find their way of learning and to provide alternative approaches when tackling problem scenarios or questions. To be a successful tutor is to develop students mindsets and enable them to eventually trust in their instinct and decide for themselves the best way to go about a…

I think the most important thing is approaching learning with compassion and patience. It is really important to consider that not everyone learns best with the same teaching style, and can process information at different paces. I think it's important to understand each person's learning style; if they are not understanding what you are saying,…

Ultimately, there are two things. Teaching a student to be curious, and teaching a student how to learn. Education systems are designed to filter all kids through a rigid, structured system, which, although brilliant for most, loses the spirit of why we learn. Because we are curious! We like to see how things work, to investigate our world and…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student in my opinion is to give them guidance on how to be successful in the subject we tutor. At the end of the day we only see them once or twice a week. We can't teach them everything. So it is important that we guide them on how to learn and study in order to be successful. Myt strength lies…

Inside Empire BayTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Zac focused on dividing fractions and multiplying mixed fractions, using step-by-step examples to strengthen understanding.

For Year 8, Jasmine worked through finding unknown angles in right-angled triangles with Pythagoras' theorem and SOHCAHTOA, applying these methods to her homework problems.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Ben tackled rearranging formulae to change the subject and practiced substituting values into equations for homework assignments, consolidating his algebra skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student arrived to the lesson without his notes or workbook, making targeted revision difficult; as noted, "he left his notes and school work book at school so he didn't have any guidelines for revision."

In a senior session on trigonometry and equations, one student relied heavily on mental calculations but sometimes omitted working out, especially when rearranging SOHCAHTOA formulas—errors with signs slipped through unnoticed.

Meanwhile, a primary student hesitated to attempt unfamiliar worded money problems until encouraged to draw diagrams.

When homework was set for clock models, it was not always completed, which slowed concept recap in later lessons.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Empire Bay recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to struggle with rearranging algebraic formulas now confidently solves for unknowns and even explains his reasoning aloud without prompting.

Another high schooler, previously hesitant to speak up, began actively asking questions during lessons and completed all assigned graphing problems using his calculator independently—something he'd never attempted solo before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who once guessed at worded money questions started drawing currency diagrams unprompted to check her answers, then finished her set of addition and subtraction problems without any errors.

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