I think a tutor should be capable of answering any questions discussing any uncertainties that a student may have. These should be explained clearly and if the student does not understand initially, the tutor should continue to explain in alternate ways (e.g. rewording sentences and visual aids such as diagrams) until the student understands. In…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to establish their confidence, give them the attention, teach the most efficient strategies to succeed in the exam with the least lessons. Students can't succeed in their exam is because there are so-called 'good students' in their class, for multiple reasons, their teachers don't actually…

Provide tools, and knowledge to help students build their confidence to tackle problems independently. I do so, by tailoring learning strategy that uses the students' strengths and I motivate with positive reinforcement and supporting the student achieving their objectives. From my experience these are life skills that serve the student beyond…

Effective teaching of a student to me involves two fundamental aspects, this is; development of key fundamental concepts and knowledge, and maturing a student's perspective of their learning through evolving of their own self-confidence and faith in themselves. This is achieved through establishing of comfortability as a teacher to develop…

I believe as a tutor the most important thing I can do is to make the lessons as enjoyable and engaging as possible.

Motivate. If a tutor can motivate a student to do whatever they want, The student will succeed in life. Motivation won't only drive my students to improve in mathematics but also other subjects. Other than knowing my mathematics, I believe I am an easy teacher. I make the work look easy for the students, so their mentality towards the work is…

The most important things for a tutor is to be a source of support that they can reach out to, not only in the specific subject that they're tutoring, but also studying and school life in general.

Show the student how to learn something. If a tutor can explain another way of looking at problems so that the student understands how to approach them, its the most useful thing for them. I think that a great tutor will eventually make themselves unnecessary. I think that I am able to adapt quickly to students learning types, as well as…

1. Revise fundamental concepts as they are essential to solve more complex problems. 2. Always break down the question before trying to solve problems. This makes the problem become simpler to solve and stimulates recall of the basic concepts that they have learnt before. 3. Always summarise what has been learnt as this helps to consolidate…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to be patient and use a variety of methods to teach content. Moreover it is important for the tutor to utilize effective communication in order to understand the weaknesses of the student in the subject, and so be able to effectively and efficiently teach the student.

The most important thing would be being able to be flexible in your teaching strategy so that a kid who may not have understood the concept, understands it in a different way. Being able to do this without losing your temper at a kid who doesn't understand is an underappreciated skill according to me because usually people think of it as more…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to change their attitude from one of apathy to one which cares deeply about what the subject has to offer and from the change in attitude, the student will start to want to know more about the subject topics and study hard to achieve great results. I am patient and I can communicate well to…

Inside LonguevilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Ava worked through fraction to decimal conversions and solved real-world area problems using diagrams.

In Year 9, Ethan focused on linear algebra by forming equations from graphs and also explored bivariate data relationships.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Olivia revised trigonometric identities and applied them to surface area calculations, reinforcing skills with past HSC questions for added exam readiness.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a student's work in algebra and fractions was often left incomplete or unclear; as noted, "needs to focus on his working out and not rushing," which led to confusion during revision.

A Year 11 student preparing for trial exams frequently skipped writing out full solutions when tackling past papers—this made it difficult to pinpoint where calculation errors occurred under time pressure.

In Year 6, one student's written layout in area and perimeter tasks was messy, making it hard for both tutor and student to follow progress step by step. Without these process improvements, mistakes remained hidden until test day.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Longueville recently noticed a Year 8 student who used to guess through maths problems now pausing to identify which rule fits each question, and starting to work independently.

In a high school session, a Year 10 student—who previously mixed up the steps—has begun accurately translating worded questions into equations and is showing more confidence applying trigonometry fundamentals without prompting.

Meanwhile, a senior physics student moved from general uncertainty to clearly explaining concepts aloud like velocity and acceleration graphs before attempting problems on their own.

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 Lane Cove Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Marist Sisters' College Woolwich.
