Tutor Canley Vale, NSW
Any tutor, mentor, educator, or teacher all have something different to offer their students: but the goal is the same and it should be this: to help empower those who can't empower themselves in order to bring forth the best version of that individual into the world. It is through education, knowledge and the reciprocation of knowledge that…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is listen to what they are asking, and targeting their weak areas within the prospective subject. By doing so the tutor should aim to tailor each lesson accordingly. I think my strengths as a tutor would be my perseverance, clarity when explaining concepts, the ability to identify a…

Some of the most important things that a tutor can do for a student is to motivate them to think on their own, build their confidence and create an environment where they are not scared to ask questions.

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to let them learn on their own. I think the best tutors know how to balance their student's learning pace by guiding them only when they have to. This helps the student learn on their own, and, as a result, learn more efficiently. My strength as a tutor is how I communicate concepts. I…

I consider the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is create a space that they feel comfortable to be challenged and to learn in. It’s one thing to just help with answering questions but to encourage and motivate students to take on the difficult concepts even when they're working on their own, this is crucial and shows growth.…

The effective tutor aims way beyond just being a good tutor. It is essential tutors always point out the good achievements of students as much as they make note of their mistakes. Providing encouragement should go beyond the work completed in lessons and a tutor should often check in on how students are coping and provide positive encouragement…

Inside LansvaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Lily revised expansion, simplification, and factorisation of algebraic equations and practised solving quadratic equations from class work.

Year 11 student Ahmad focused on financial mathematics by tackling credit, borrowing scenarios, and earning money calculations.

For Year 12, Sam worked through HSC-style questions involving probability concepts and advanced coordinate geometry using exam paper revision tasks.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 algebra, skipping written steps while using the quadratic formula led to confusion with negative signs—"he substituted too quickly and missed a minus."

For a Year 7 student, inconsistent homework completion meant formulas for volume and area weren't memorised; this caused hesitation during test revision.

Messy working in indices problems made error tracing difficult in senior years, especially under timed conditions.

During complex worded questions in Year 10, reliance on mental calculation rather than setting out logic clearly resulted in lost marks when revising past assessments.

These habits left students unsure where their errors crept in during independent practice.

Recent Achievements

One Lansvale tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 9 student who now confidently asks for clarification on tricky quadratic equations, rather than skipping problems as she did earlier in the term.

Another high schooler has moved from hesitating over financial maths questions to accurately calculating compound interest and using taxation tables without prompting.

Meanwhile, a primary student surprised her tutor by recognising which index laws applied in harder problems and applying them rapidly—just weeks ago, she would second-guess herself on even basic indices.

Last session, she solved the most challenging question on indices and volume entirely unaided.

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 The Whitlam Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Lansvale East Public School.
