A tutor in my perspective must be flexible and must be willing to offer any form of support, I.e. helping solve problems, explain concepts in detail, clear misconceptions, etc. Also it is important always maintains a positive attitude and encourages students to learn more. I also think a tutor should be able to provide their students with the…

I think the most important things a tutor can do are to build the student's confidence, explain concepts in a way that suits their learning style, and create a supportive environment where they feel comfortable asking questions. It's not just about giving them the answers, it's about helping them understand the process so they can become…

By first giving the student the necessary skills to complete a range of questions this equips them with the tools to complete any question. I then allow the student to make the mistake first and learn from it by helping them change what they did. This is then followed up with an example response to a question then the student is given the chance…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them figure out how to learn in many different ways, thus setting them up for a lifetime of learning.

Building a proper connection with the student in order to get them to trust and listen to you is inarguably the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. Once that relationship is built, the student and tutor can not only pass but excel in their given subject thanks to that built trust. It can really fast-track a struggling student. I'm…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to not only understand where the student is at within their academics, but in their personal life as well. A student's schooling can be very stressful and there is a lot of pressure from others. My role would be to make sure that I am not pressuring them, and that we reward even the…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to understand the needs of their student and develop effective resources that work for THAT student.

The most important thing I can do for a student is to be patient. Patience is key in facilitating the process of learning as it removes the anxiety inducing pressure of expectation and allows the student to solely focus on the content at hand. Patience also allows the student to rationalise concepts at their own pace. This has the effect of deeply…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is learning to adapt. Each students brain is wired completely different, and in school, there’s not always an opportunity to work one on one. So it’s crucial for a tutor to observe their students strengths and weaknesses, and use that to progress their learning. I am super patient…

I think that as a tutor you must listen to what your student needs and give that to them. Each student will learn differently so it is extremely important that as a tutor you tailor your teaching approach to that student and their needs in order for them to learn best. As I just left school in 2021 I have a good understanding of the pressures and…

Amanda Patterson

Inside FountaindaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Liv worked on applying index laws, especially with powers of fractions and the zero index law, using clear examples to build confidence.

Year 8 student Jayden practised rearranging algebraic equations and explored linear relations by creating tables of values.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ryan focused on surface area calculations for cylinders and applied these concepts through practical problem-solving activities.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Maths, one student showed a pattern of not completing modules before sessions or leaving revision until the last minute—this made test preparation less effective and left key concepts unmastered. As one tutor noted, "he has no idea about some of the module questions when quizzed."

In Year 5, another student struggled to keep work neat and often forgot to write out their working, leading to confusion when reviewing steps.

Meanwhile, in senior Physics, forgetting to reference notes or proofread answers meant avoidable errors slipped through during assessments.

Recent Achievements

A Fountaindale tutor noticed that Liv, a high school student, initially used her intuition for index laws with powers of fractions but, after some encouragement, shifted to applying the correct techniques—she then aced those challenging problems without extra help.

Another win came from Jayden in Year 10, who used to rely heavily on guidance with rearranging equations but recently managed to work through almost all problems independently and only asked when truly stuck.

In primary sessions, Anureet struggled with the 11 times tables above 10×11; after learning a clear strategy, she confidently answered every question during practice.

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 Tuggerah Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Central Coast Steiner School.
