I think the most important thing I can do for a student is to not only help them reach their academic goals, but also help them understand themselves as a person. Everyone is unique, and thus have different learning and studying styles, and I don't think the education system emphasises that enough. I want to be able to guide them through their own…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to relieve stress and to confirm to the student that their understanding of concepts is correct. By this i mean in my personal experience a lot of what i needed from my own tutors was for them to confirm that what i thought was correct was or not. I believe my strengths also…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to set up reachable and positive expectations for individual students. No two students learn the same, so it is important to cater for the individuals learning needs whether they need concrete materials, whiteboards, etc. As I am still relatively young, and work in a low socio…

A good tutor creates a safe space where students feel…

Inside LeichhardtTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Emily worked on overtime pay, penalty rates, and order of operations, while also reflecting on which parts of her PSMT assessment felt most challenging.

For Year 10, Jack focused on solving simultaneous equations and revising compound interest calculations, applying concepts to practice questions.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ava tackled bivariate statistics and interpreting data for her PSMT assessment, using technology like Excel to predict trends from real datasets.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 algebra, note-taking habits became a stumbling block—"I had Emily complete these from memory but I have to keep checking that she is recording these." This often left her without clear summaries to review.

In a senior maths session, missing or incomplete homework meant foundational gaps in topics like indices and matrices persisted longer than necessary.

During a Year 7 lesson on division and mean, scattered attention slowed concept grasp, while for PSMT assessments in Years 11–12, lack of test reflection and planning made it harder for her to identify where extra practice was most needed before exams.

Recent Achievements

A Leichhardt tutoring session saw a Year 11 student finally start double-checking her maths work and catching her own mistakes—something she used to avoid out of frustration.

In Year 10, another student who struggled for months with fractions managed to complete her homework independently, using new recall techniques she'd been practicing in lessons.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student recently began asking questions out loud when stuck instead of sitting quietly, which has made tackling word problems less overwhelming for her.

Last week, one high schooler solved all ten algebra questions without needing hints for the first time.

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 Ipswich Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Leichhardt State School.
