Not give the answers but help support the learning process and give guidance when the child needs it most. There is a difference between doing all the work for the child and actually teaching how the problem can be approached and observing how the student does it him/herself. If the child is stuck on a concept, it is my responsibility to help the…

In the context of Science and Mathematics, the key aspect is HOW to think. Science requires imagination, innovation as well as an excellent recall and grasp of modern scientific understanding. Mathematics, being a tool - requires the students to be well-equipped with the basic mathematical tools. To directly answer this question; a tutor must…

I think the most important thing that a tutor can do is be supportive. Students are already frustrated when they do not understand something, hence we do not need to add to that by being frustrated at them. In addition, a tutor needs to be flexible. This allows one to better tailor the program to the student's needs and the student's strengths. I…

Encouragement and being able to explain concepts in a digestible manner are what makes a good tutor, but a great tutor checks in on students to make sure that they are thriving. It takes courage and self-reflection to find a tutor in the first place, so the least a tutor can do is make sure to give the tools for a student to make it on their…

Local Reviews

After the last session Mia said she was happy with Sam and didn't want to change to anyone else. Sam is very bright and Mia will never be an advanced Maths student but they seem to have worked out how to communicate and that just builds her confidence so she doesn't see a difficult question and get overwhelmed. Sam is also very punctual and communicates well with us as well. Even the dog likes him now.

Inside Kurraba PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Lily worked on area of triangles using decimal and fractional multiplication, then tackled unknown side problems with practical examples.

For Year 8, Ava focused on congruency tests for triangles and quadrilaterals, using diagrams to identify key properties and revisited composite area and coordinate plane questions from her school homework.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Emily reviewed trigonometric ratios in preparation for upcoming assessments and practiced recognizing different angle relationships—complementary, co-interior, and alternate angles—through targeted problem sets.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often hesitated to attempt algebraic problem-solving questions, preferring decimals instead of setting out working for equations—this slowed skill growth in algebra.

In a senior year, "she frequently needed to refer back to notes for specific ratios," which interrupted focus during trigonometry practice and made revision less efficient.

For a Year 9 geometry task, the tutor observed that skipping clear layout meant errors went unnoticed until answers were checked together.

One student's tendency to avoid showing steps—especially with calculations involving area or conversions—meant time was lost retracing logic instead of moving forward with new material.

Recent Achievements

A Kurraba Point tutor recently noticed a big change in one Year 10 student: after struggling with time management in past Olympiad exams, she completed this term's paper more confidently and finished within the time limit, needing less guidance to spot her own errors during review.

In Year 11 maths, Charlie now tackles past papers independently—he highlights key concepts on his resources sheet and no longer needs notes for most questions, a shift from earlier sessions where he hesitated to work alone.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who was reluctant to explain her reasoning is now much more open about sharing her thought process when solving geometry problems.

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 Stanton Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Loreto Kirribilli.
