The most important things a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, are not only concrete plans and a sufficient level of knowledge, but also empathy to understand what the student needs and their natural ability. A tutor, in my opinion, is not someone who places a high level of math practise in the hands of an art student who dislikes math. A…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be able to understand their needs and feelings towards their studies. The same approach does not work for all students, so it is important to adapt to to each individuals needs in order to give them the best teaching possible, and inspire confidence in themselves. I think my best…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to enable a student with essential skills, both related to subject taught, as well as life skills. In this way, the student can go on to become an independent learner. My strengths are in being able to put myself in the child's shoes and explain the way he/she wants it. My weakness is that I often give…

Be a friend. This is how I was taught by my tutors and this is how I taught as well. If there is a deeper bond than that of just a student and teacher, the student really shines.

Inside KurnellTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Alice worked through trigonometry concepts, focusing on the sine and cosine rules for solving triangle problems.

For Year 11, Tom reviewed exam questions covering depreciation calculations and percentage conversions, with extra practice on unit conversion and using significant figures accurately.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Jack practiced algebraic skills by creating simultaneous equations from word problems and refining his technique for solving inequalities and multi-step equations.

Recent Challenges

The unit circle still needed more practice in the Year 9 student's trigonometry work, with several steps left unexplained, making it tough to pinpoint where errors crept in.

In Year 7 algebra, working out x using multiplication and division showed gaps—written steps were incomplete or skipped, so mistakes weren't easy to trace back.

For a Year 11 assessment task in Science, analysing results and tabulating data proved difficult; the challenge was reading questions closely and organizing responses logically.

In Year 4 area tasks, messy layout made following calculations harder for both student and tutor, slowing down progress during irregular shape problems.

Recent Achievements

One Kurnell tutor recently saw a Year 11 student, who had been struggling with simultaneous equations, finally solve them independently and explain each step without prompting.

Another high schooler made a breakthrough with the sine and cosine rules—she went from mixing up which to use, to confidently choosing and applying the correct formula on her own for tricky exam-style problems.

In a younger session, a Year 4 student who used to avoid mental maths now volunteers answers aloud during warm-ups and completed every question in under two minutes this week, showing real initiative compared to earlier lessons.

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 Sans Souci Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kurnell Public School.
