Tutor Long Jetty, NSW
By first giving the student the necessary skills to complete a range of questions this equips them with the tools to complete any question. I then allow the student to make the mistake first and learn from it by helping them change what they did. This is then followed up with an example response to a question then the student is given the chance…

The most important thing you can do for a student (other than teaching them the things they are struggling with) is letting them know they aren't as "stupid" as they may feel. So many students enter tutoring frustrated, upset and not wanting to be there because they believe that they are "stupider" or "dumber" than their friends because "well my…

I believe the most important thing is to have a routine, be reliable, and to have the student be a part of every decision in their learning. My time with a student is not about a test or exam. It is about creating the skills for a student to be able to improve as they move through school and beyond. This is something that is going to be…

I think the most important things a tutor can do are to build the student's confidence, explain concepts in a way that suits their learning style, and create a supportive environment where they feel comfortable asking questions. It's not just about giving them the answers, it's about helping them understand the process so they can become…

I believe the most important things I can do as a tutor for my students is to to make them feel like they can do anything that they struggle with. It is important that students are able to express what they struggle with without the fear of being judged or humiliated. They need to know that just because they're struggling with something does not…

Support and patience. Trying to force too many things at once can only frustrate somebody attempting to better themselves, following a pace the student is best learning at is crucial. Frustration and not grasping an idea or a concept can lead to giving up, which is why support and again patience are key. I'm reliable, patient and easy to talk to.…

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…

The most important thing a tutor could do is create a safe environment for the student. Learning can be more comprehensive and explicit once the student is comfortable around their tutor’s presence.

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 thing a tutor can do for a student is to understand the needs of their student and develop effective resources that work for THAT student. It is also important to recognise what kind of work load people are capable of handling so that you do not overwhelm them with tasks, as this would be counterproductive. So I guess, just…

As discussed before, I believe a tutor should be flexible in their teaching in order to meet the needs of each student. However even more importantly, an effective tutor should inspire students. I strongly believe that one of the greatest barriers to learning is the "study hard and get good grades" mentality. The aim of a tutor should not be…

The most important thing I can do for a student is to be patient. Patience is key in facilitating the process of learning as it removes the anxiety inducing pressure of expectation and allows the student to solely focus on the content at hand. Patience also allows the student to rationalise concepts at their own pace. This has the effect of deeply…

Inside MagentaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Arjun worked on financial maths, focusing on interest calculations and time periods, and tackled trigonometry skills such as solving right-angled triangles.

Year 8 student Ava practiced graph plotting for linear and non-linear equations, along with exploring mean and median in data sets using real examples.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Leo developed his understanding of fractions by converting them to decimals and multiplying fractions, plus revised addition and subtraction of integers through targeted practice.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student in Magenta mathematics sessions rarely wrote out working or took notes on module tasks; as one tutor observed, "he needs to work on writing down his working out and to start taking notes on his modules."

In Year 11, another student arrived without having completed required modules before tutoring, which limited revision for upcoming tests.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 learner struggled with organization when attempting word problems—forgetting key steps with brackets and signs caused confusion.

For a senior physics session, lack of revision meant friction concepts were shaky during applied questions. This left confidence fragile ahead of assessments.

Recent Achievements

A Magenta tutor recently noticed a Year 9 student who previously guessed through difficult equations now pausing to check each step, even asking for clarification instead of rushing—showing a clear shift toward independent problem-solving.

In Year 11, one session saw a student work through tricky standard deviation calculations with far less hesitation than last term, using the correct formulas without prompts.

Meanwhile, a younger learner in Year 4 who used to struggle with large number multiplication began self-correcting errors mid-problem and confidently explained their process out loud before moving on to the next question.

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 Entrance Library & Council Services—or at your child's school (with permission), like The Entrance Public School.
