The most important things a tutor can do are to foster understanding, confidence, and independence. It’s not just about helping with assignments but about teaching students how to think critically, while also approaching problems systematically, and believe in their ability to succeed on their own. My main strengths would be patience, clarity,…

First, I think it is very important for a tutor to monitor the progress of the student and try to tailor the lesson and provide additional help to the student, in order to address their weaknesses. This is the most efficient and beneficial way of tutoring, as it can keep the student on the right track, without falling behind significantly.…

I think a good tutor, as an elder should be able to provide guidance and motivation to their students as well if necessary. Academics alone is not the only priority for a great tutor. Going through high school myself, I understand the problems faced by students and hence can help students in various areas. I love working with children and hence…

I believe that students come for tutoring because they have a unique way of understanding that most normal educational practices do not accommodate in schools. So as a tutor the most important thing I can do is first spend some time to understand my students better and use that knowledge to help them grasp academic concepts more easily. I am able…

Local Reviews

Ezy and professional all the way! The response time was quick (after we had had poor results in our prior attempts to organize a tutor for our son) We had our first tutoring session 2 days after making contact, and the result has already started to show only a couple of weeks in. They also follow up with interesting support material to compliment the sessions and make sure you as parent have realistic understanding on how the process works.

Inside ErskinevilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Sam focused on algebra basics and graphing, then moved into trigonometry topics like similar triangles and the law of cosines, using diagrams to clarify each step.

For Year 10 student Jamie, lessons addressed linear equations and systems of linear equations, along with strategies for solving quadratic equations and interpreting graphs.

Meanwhile, Year 4 student Alex worked through algorithms for subtraction and multiplication after a pre-assessment identified current strengths and set clear math goals.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9, one student found multi-step word problems overwhelming, struggling to identify key information and break tasks into manageable parts; "she stated that she is often overwhelmed at all the information given to her."

In Year 11, missing out on reviewing ratios and rates before a test led to easy marks being lost, as noted when the student relied on their own judgment rather than systematically covering all topics.

For a Year 12 student, skipping questions on a practice exam meant they missed opportunities to apply feedback or clarify uncertainties. This sometimes left gaps unaddressed before assessment deadlines arrived.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Erskineville noticed Kiera is now independently tackling tricky algebra problems—she used to wait for help, but recently solved most on her own and even explained her thinking out loud.

Raphael, a high school student, showed real initiative by trying different problem-solving strategies his teacher suggested; he completed complex algorithms without prompting and was eager to dive into programming Flappy Bird after a demo.

Another win came when Kiera finished the entire trigonometry set perfectly this week—without needing any assistance from her tutor.

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