The most important thing which a tutor can do for a student is to make him understand the concept instead of just showing him how to solve the problems. If a student understands the concept well then he can solve any type of problem. As I tutor , my strengths are understanding the level of teaching required for any particular student. Each student…

Being able to tutor is a small part of the process. A tutor must be able to become a mentor to the student and completely help out in the challenges and obstacles that the student may face. I believe I can tutor because I have a good understanding of the context that was taught to me in high school which allowed me to achieve my results of the…

Tutor is a guidance and the support. A right tutor can shape the future of the student. As the Chinese proverb goes: "Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day; teach a man to fish and he will eat for lifetime". Hence I would say tutor plays a very important role in shaping the education and career of the student by teaching him/her the right…

A tutor should provide guidance and assistance at all costs for the student they are teaching.

To listen and understand their own difficulty and try to help them in a way, that only works for that particular student.

The most vital thing for a tutor is to assess the level of understanding of the student. Students learn in different ways (some learn best with visual explanations, some learn by analogy, or by pnemonic devices etc) and it is important to understand the best approach for a specific student. By applying the most appropriate teaching techniques for…

I think it is most important for a tutor to make the learning experience enjoyable for a student, because in my experience even the worst subject with the most innane course material can be made much better with a tutor that you actually like, that likes the subject, and presents it clearly.

Although high results is a must, tutors should also respect or accept what students may want to gain out of their HSC marks. We cannot force students to learn but making the content more interesting will help motivate those who struggle to grasp the concept. The key point is that after every session, the student can leave knowing that they have…

Explain. If a tutor can explain a concept in a way a student can understand and then is able to remember it and be able to apply it, the tutor has succeeded in his role. Also being able to listen to students, as a tutor should be able to find small mistakes and correct them as questions require perfection to some degree to achieve maximum marks.…

Inside Harris ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student worked on addition and subtraction of double-digit numbers, with extra focus on using a number line for subtraction and strategies for borrowing.

In Year 10, Anika tackled advanced algebraic fractions—practicing addition, subtraction, and factorisation—and also expanded and simplified expressions involving surds.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Yash covered properties of the nucleus in Physics, specifically exploring nuclear fission and fusion through real-world examples from Module 8.

Recent Challenges

In Year 2 maths, one student's tendency to draw and become distracted during lessons led to unfinished subtraction tasks; "gets multiplication and division confused with addition and subtraction" was a concern when homework wasn't completed.

In Year 8 algebra, another learner avoided showing working for factorising surds—"remembering how minus signs and brackets must be used" became an issue when errors weren't visible.

A Year 12 physics student relied heavily on memory for Doppler effect formulas but struggled to recall them under HSC exam-style pressure, making it harder to benefit from feedback after practice questions.

Recent Achievements

One Harris Park tutor noticed a big change in a Year 8 student who, after initially struggling with expanding brackets, was confidently working through them independently by the end of their session and even began manipulating fractions more effectively.

Another high schooler recently asked several thoughtful questions about surds—a shift from earlier lessons when he hesitated to speak up—and then applied new rules across problems without prompting.

In a Year 4 lesson, a student who used to guess at double-digit subtraction is now using the number line method consistently and checks her own answers before moving on.

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 Granville Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Oliver's Primary School.
