I think the most important thing that a tutor can teach is how to learn. Things like study habits and exam prep techniques can help students immeasurably. My main strength is my thorough understanding of mathematics. Studying subjects like analysis allows me to truly understand the concepts that are being taught to high school students. I also…

A tutor should be fair and promote independent thinking rather than just giving answers. Encouraging students to analyze problems, develop strategies, and build logical reasoning skills is essential. Another key role is boosting confidence—many students struggle not due to a lack of ability, but self-doubt. By providing structured learning,…

I think the most important thing for a tutor to do for a student is to listen to them. In order to properly help a student it is essential that you listen to them and focus on what they say they understand and where they say they are getting caught as they often understand parts of concepts and just need your help to put them all together. I think…

Getting stuck in a problem and solving it alongside them has to be the number 1 thing that a tutor does.

I am approachable and friendly, I can…

Inside Lake HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Isla practised simplifying fractions and applying the order of operations, along with converting numbers to percentages using real-life examples.

For Year 11, Tom focused on algebraic manipulation and interpreting survey data in worksheet exercises, while Noah worked through statistics concepts such as mean and standard deviation by tackling targeted homework problems.

Year 12 student Natalia reviewed function properties like domain and range, then explored transformations within functions using a mix of textbook questions and discussion.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student reviewing algebra and linear functions repeatedly relied on solved examples, rarely attempting questions independently—"he needs to practice by himself the same questions," a tutor noted. This led to shallow understanding, especially before exams.

In Year 11, a student working on data analysis and measurement often forgot formulas between sessions because materials were not reviewed immediately after lessons.

Meanwhile, in primary maths, one child's sums were sometimes incomplete due to distraction and fatigue, with missed steps when tired.

For a Year 7 learner, forgetting feedback from previous sessions meant mistakes reappeared in multiplication drills.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Lake Heights noticed a real shift with Evie, a Year 9 student who used to hesitate when translating worded statements into algebra—after some targeted practice, she started working through these problems on her own without prompting.

Meanwhile, Zane (Year 11) showed new initiative by tackling chapter exercises independently at home and then coming to sessions ready with specific questions he wanted help on, a big change from waiting passively for guidance.

For a younger win, Chantel in Year 4 completed her homework error-free for the first time after struggling with long addition last term.

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 Warrawong District Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Warrawong High School.
