In my opinion the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them reach their goals. Whether that may be to help them catch up in certain subjects, to reach for top marks for their desired high school or university or in need of motivation to study in creating habits. I believe that the most important thing will be for the tutor…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is build their confidence while also making sure they don’t develop resentment toward the content. By adapting to their learning style and keeping things engaging, a tutor can help students see the value in what they’re learning. When students start to enjoy the subject, they’re…

In my opinion understanding each students learning preferences is very important. Every student has their own unique method of learning. My job is to understand their strengths and weakness and adjust my teaching style according to their needs. I am extremely patient with students and this is a skill that I have developed over the past few years…

The most important things a tutor can do are to be patient and kind. This will reflect well on the students because they might have a hard time learning a certain subject and need support through the way. My strengths as a tutor would be that I am very patient and understanding. These characteristics are strong for a tutor, as students learn in…

I would consider skills such as organisation, critical thinking and problem solving strategies to be the most valuable takeaways for the student, especially since the skills will always be useful long-term. I also think a tutor should be able to build up their student's growth mindset, giving the students the mentality and confidence to grow even…

I believe one of the most important things a tutor can do is identify exactly where a student is struggling and provide targeted support.

Create a comfortable, relaxed environment to learn and ask questions. Improve confidence: many students don't know what they're capable of, and just need the self-belief to show it off.

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student go beyond just teaching content. A tutor should help a child feel capable--- when students believe in themselves, everything else becomes easier. It's important to break concepts down simply, meet students where they are, and help them move forward step by step without overwhelm.…

I think the most important thing that a tutor can do is be supportive. Students are already frustrated when they do not understand something, hence we do not need to add to that by being frustrated at them. In addition, a tutor needs to be flexible. This allows one to better tailor the program to the student's needs and the student's strengths. I…

I believe empowerment is one single most important aspects a tutor can bring to a student's live.

It is most important that a tutor doesn't give up on their students.

1. Students who believe they "are just bad at math" will block themselves from learning. It's important to rebuild that self-belief by pacing lessons to guarantee early, small wins that stack into genuine confidence. 2. Don't just hand over answers or act as a human calculator. The goal is to teach independent problem-solving strategies and…

Abby, Mascot

Inside MascotTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ava focused on double-digit addition and understanding place value using visual aids.

Year 8 student Andre worked through congruent triangle postulates for an upcoming maths assessment, as well as deepening his analysis of major themes in the novel 'The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas'.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ethan revised basic trigonometric identities and practiced entering angles on his calculator while also learning how to solve for unknown sides in triangles.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student repeatedly leaned on their calculator for basic multiplication and fractions, slowing progress in lessons; as noted, "he was more reliant on the calculator," making it harder to build number fluency.

In Year 10 Maths, a lack of revision meant algebra strategies taught just weeks earlier were forgotten during problem-solving—leading to hesitancy and skipped questions.

One Year 4 learner lost focus quickly when asked to count backwards by twos or fives, often leaving work incomplete.

During Year 11 English analysis tasks, superficial reading of set texts led to uncertainty unpacking key passages under time pressure.

Recent Achievements

A Mascot tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who, after struggling with algebraic manipulation, now attempts problems without a calculator and actively revises notes between sessions.

In another high school lesson, a student who used to avoid challenging questions has started requesting tougher problems and persevering through them independently, especially in data concepts and probability.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once hesitated during addition tasks is now confidently completing multi-digit sums on her own and consistently keeps neat notes—she even remembers to include units at the end of her answers.

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 Mascot Library (incl. the George Hanna Memorial Museum)—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mascot Public School.
