Students are often scared of certain subjects and avoid facing their problems. For a tutor to be successful at his/her job, they need to be able to help the child overcome those fears and enjoy the subject they were once afraid of. Tutoring can be very challenging sometimes. However, understanding every child's needs and focusing on helping them…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to enrich their understanding and reinvigorate or catalyze a passion in a particular subject. Nowadays, a student's passion for a particular subject dwindles as they go further and further into their high school career. This may be due to external factors such as pressure or…

One important thing a tutor can do is clearly understand what a student wants with their tutor. For example, if a student already know concepts really well, a tutor should be able to identify this and spend more time on areas where a student may struggle. Furthermore, it is important to consider the student first and foremost. A tutor should be…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to respect their intellect. A tutor must always be careful not to break a student’s confidence.

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to set a good example.

The tutor must help the student improve in the subject they are teaching.

I also believe that the tutor must make the student feel comfortable around them. If it is possible to do without…

Actually engage and interact with the student to find where, and more importantly why they're struggling or need help.

Inside LansdowneTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Zoe practised division and fractions, with extra focus on understanding decimals and recognising 3D shapes using clues.

For Year 10, Jasmine worked through expanding and factorising algebraic equations as well as revision of quadratic problems from classwork.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Michael tackled cumulative frequency graphs and calculated regression lines for bivariate data using real examples to build statistical analysis skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student hesitated to attempt complex indices problems, often skipping harder parts—"she tends to avoid the multi-step indices questions," noted one tutor, which meant fewer opportunities to practice linking concepts under pressure.

In Year 9 algebra, incomplete back-checking of fraction addition steps led to small sign errors persisting across similar questions.

A primary student's missed homework left gaps in times tables recall, so new division skills felt shaky and unfamiliar.

For another Year 8 learner, messy working in volume problems made it tough to trace errors or clarify which formula was being applied at each step.

Recent Achievements

A Lansdowne tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to hesitate with HSC financial mathematics now confidently solved compound interest and quadratic equation problems independently.

Another high schooler, after struggling with complex algebraic equations, showed new initiative by applying substitution techniques up to fourth-order factorisation without prompting.

Meanwhile, in primary sessions, Zoe—who once needed frequent help with division—was able to write her own division sentences using arrays and tackled most questions on her own, only occasionally checking in for guidance.

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 Chester Hill Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School.
