One of the most important things a tutor can do in my opinion is understand how a student thinks and foster a sense of encouragement regarding that thinking pattern. Personally in my experience I have found that this is very helpful and just overall a nice quality to have in a teacher/tutor. I believe my strengths as a tutor come from the fact I…

I believe the most important role a tutor plays is to establish a friendly relationship with the student. This makes learning more engaging and achievable. My previous tutoring experience has shown me that students learn best when they are engaged more personally. For example, relating concepts to the hobbies of a student allows them to perceive…

Science Tutor Jordan Springs, NSW
The most important thing a teacher in general can do for a student is to cultivate a positive mindset that they have the potential to do anything. It is a way of teaching them to believe in themselves. I believe teaching is more than just conveying information. A teacher has the power to mold a child's life. Hence as a teacher, it is crucial to…

Most importantly a tutor should understand the goals and needs of each student individually - what they find difficult and why they struggle with certain concepts. Subsequently, tutors should teach students the concepts and ensure they understand how to solve problems, this provides lifelong problem solving skills rather than memorised methods to…

Inside Hawkesbury HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Isaac focused on applying BODMAS and practicing long division in mathematics, while also distinguishing between literal and metaphoric writing in his English creative writing homework.

In Year 10, Luke worked through algebraic equations involving moving pronumerals across the equals sign, and practiced simplifying expressions using exponentials.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Zahraa developed her economics essays by linking economic objectives to policies and refining her structure with targeted feedback for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, one student "regularly forgets formulas" and was often distracted during lessons, sometimes drawing or writing unrelated notes, which led to difficulty recalling area and volume methods when tackling composite shapes.

In a Year 7 English session, a lack of homework and minimal revision meant only base knowledge of grammar topics was remembered—retention dropped after longer breaks without practice.

For a senior assessment task in Years 11–12, an essay draft remained incomplete the day before it was due; time management and earlier planning would have prevented last-minute stress as the deadline loomed.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Hawkesbury Heights noticed one high school student, previously hesitant to ask for clarification, now actively stops to question confusing essay prompts before planning responses.

Another Year 11 student who used to rush through maths problems began self-checking answers for negatives, catching errors without prompting.

In a younger year group, a primary student who struggled with fidgeting found ways to moderate movement during reading practice—managing to finish an entire passage aloud without interruption for the first time.

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 Blue Mountains Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Castlereagh Public School.
