Tutor Wyoming, NSW
The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide guidance and help whenever a student needs it. By providing students with the necessary help on problems that they may be struggling with, they will develop their own approach to solving problems and will eventually solve similar problems without assistance. As a tutor, I believe…

While it is important that students are achieving the marks they want, this is only half of the game. As a tutor, I want to be able to maximise their performance but also teach them the fundamental skills that come along with achieving success. Things like consistency, discipline and a growth mindset aren’t part of any NSW syllabus, but is apart…

A lot of people think that if maths wasn't always easy for them that they will always be bad at it, I think it's important to show them they are also capable of doing maths and to not let low confidence stop them. I'm good at seeing a students thought process and reframing concepts in ways they can…

Being a past past studnet at many various tutoring places, the most important quality for a tutor is to able to incur a friendly yet working relationship with their students.

If I have to pick one only, I think a positive attitude is the most important things a tutor can do for a student. Others like helping students build up their independence of learning and fall in love or not afraid of their learning. Positive, patience and encouragement. I have a positive attitude towards teaching and my life. I believe every kid…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to not only understand where the student is at within their academics, but in their personal life as well. A student's schooling can be very stressful and there is a lot of pressure from others. My role would be to make sure that I am not pressuring them, and that we reward even the…

The most important things a tutor can do for students is to take the steps to give the student a deeper appreciation for their knowledge, and show real world applications for the skills taught. A student is more likely to pay attention if there is something they know they gain from it, rather than just higher grades. My ability to teach on a…

I think the most important thing is approaching learning with compassion and patience. It is really important to consider that not everyone learns best with the same teaching style, and can process information at different paces. I think it's important to understand each person's learning style; if they are not understanding what you are saying,…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is assist them in learning new skills.

I think that as a tutor you must listen to what your student needs and give that to them. Each student will learn differently so it is extremely important that as a tutor you tailor your teaching approach to that student and their needs in order for them to learn best. As I just left school in 2021 I have a good understanding of the pressures and…

Local Reviews

Oshi has been very professional, friendly and accomodating. My children really enjoy their sessions with him and we have noticed improvements after 2 sessions and a huge jump in their confidence. He really focuses on areas my children need support with and works to make the sessions fun, yet very beneficial.

Inside LisarowTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Liv worked on index laws, especially multiplying and dividing powers, including the zero index law and powers of fractions.

For Year 9, Chloe revised formulae for speed, distance, and time as part of test preparation and practiced solving tricky equations from her homework.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Arielle tackled multiplication and division word problems to build problem-solving skills with step-by-step support.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student, after missing her school notes, found revision for an upcoming exam difficult—he left his notes and school work book at school so he didn't have any guidelines for revision.

In Year 11 Maths, one student relied on a calculator that wasn't working properly; confusion followed when dividing by π without it.

For a Year 7 English assignment, only limited written material was provided, making feedback hard to deliver and progress slow.

In a senior tutorial, frequent late logins and distractions (like phone use) meant much of the session was spent regaining focus instead of building skills.

Recent Achievements

A Lisarow tutor noticed Liv making a real leap with algebraic fractions: after initially using her intuition, she took on the formal rules and aced tricky problems that had previously slowed her down.

In Year 9, Chloe shifted from relying on guidance to independently double-checking her working when calculating areas—including compound shapes—and even started catching rounding errors herself.

Meanwhile, one primary student, Anureet, moved past hesitation with 11 times tables; after struggling above 10 Ă— 11, she confidently nailed them all during a follow-up test and completed every division question without prompting.

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 Erina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Lisarow Public School.
