The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be patient and humble. While certain concepts may come naturally to the tutor, this is not always the case for the student. A good tutor recognizes that each student learns in their own way and at their own pace. Therefore, patience is essential in guiding the student toward…

Physics Tutor North Narrabeen, NSW
I think the biggest benefit a tutor can have is to help instill in a student a sense of confidence in their ability to learn. Regardless of how much subject matter a student is able to retain, they will have a lot of learning to do beyond when they are being tutored, so I believe it is at least as important for students to be ‘learning how to…

Physics Tutor Chatswood, NSW
One of the most important things a tutor can do for their student is to help develop the student's confidence in their own abilities and helping them to understand the material set for them. It is also important for them to have someone they feel comfortable to ask all their questions that they may be too afraid to ask in class. I am patient,…

Physics Tutor Willoughby, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, is to understand their obstacles, may it be a particular math topic or studying maths itself. A tutor must be able to guide their student through these obstacles in order for them to succeed in maths. By talking and discussing with the student, a tutor should be able to understand what method…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to be understanding. Not every student is the same and every student has different strengths and weaknesses. It is most important for a tutor to not see every student as the same but as an individual who will have different needs. Personally, through my experience as a tutor, being understanding has…

A good tutor should be able to adapt to each student's learning methodology and tailor the experience to address their weaknesses and hone their strengths. As an outgoing and perceptive person, I can make students feel comfortable around me. This subsequently enables me to assess their skills and help them…

I consider encouragement and clarity to be the most important things a tutor can do for a student. Encouraging the students to learn, to do well, and to be confident is the first step for them to gain interest and the willingness to improve. It is also very important to deliver clear explanation to the students so that they could progress more…

- Being open and being a conversationalist has to be the most important priority to ensure that the student feels comfortable enough to ask questions. You cannot learn a concept unless you actively engage and ask questions! - Being well prepared for a class and I believe this not only involves knowing the content thoroughly enough to teach BUT…

Maintain a positive attitude, take away the stress from learning, guide them and restructure their approach to studying when they come across roadblocks. Besides this it is essential that the tutor has good notes, visual ques, easy acronyms and memorization strategies, probes the student to think on their own and create a curiosity and interest in…

I think that things are going well- we only had one session so far but Jake seems great and does a great job of explaining things to her. I will definitely comment further once we get a bit further down the line, but happy so far!

Inside FreshwaterTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Morgan worked on long division with remainders and began simplifying fractions, focusing on how improper and proper fractions differ.

In Year 8, Zane practised applying negative indices within algebraic expressions and solved problems involving gradients in linear graphs.

Year 9 student Seth tackled advanced algebra topics such as expanding brackets and equations with variables on both sides, alongside revision of circular geometry using targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Maths, one student showed a tendency to skip showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors—this made it hard to spot where things went wrong and meant repeated mistakes in multi-step problems.

For a Year 8 student, lack of confidence led them to hesitate before answering statistics questions, even when their reasoning was correct; this slowed progress and left answers unchecked.

In Year 5 English, another learner struggled to extract key points from reading tasks—often missing main ideas because smaller details became distracting.

In each case, the underlying process habits interrupted feedback and caused frustration during review.

Recent Achievements

One Freshwater tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 11 student who, after lots of targeted practice, now pinpoints where he goes wrong in chemistry problems and can quickly fix his own mistakes—something he used to avoid tackling independently.

In Year 9 maths, another student has become much faster at answering questions accurately and now volunteers for harder problems without waiting to be prompted, showing real initiative compared to earlier sessions.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who previously hesitated during reading is now extracting key points from stories by herself and happily explains them aloud after finishing each passage.

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 Warringah Mall Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St John the Baptist Catholic Primary School.
