Inspire a genuine passion for the subject, rather than just learning for the sake of school. When students find enjoyment and appreciation in what they're studying, learning becomes easier, and this mindset will benefit them with anything they need to learn in the future. Patience and making learning fun. I take the time to understand each…

I believe following up with students is the best way to create accountability and instil a routine in them. Also, tutors who put in effort after hours, such as staying back to help or creating personalised tasks to target their weak areas, are critical for students to excel in their studies. As a previously tutored student, I can guarantee that…

Along with this, I think it is important for a tutor to empower their students, give them confidence, help them reach their goals and improve.

The most important thing a teacher can teach a student is something about how they learn best, like what techniques, environements, etc. they need to learn effectively. This is not only a skill that will help them any time they need to learn something in the future, but also something that will help them enjoy the process. I think I have excellent…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is allow them to understand things on their own rather than allowing them to memorize things because it stays in their head longer when they can understand by themselves. My strengths would be that I allow students to let me know any time when they do not understand something. I do not…

For me, the most important thing a tutor can do is help the student feel more confident — not just with the subject, but in themselves. I think we sometimes forget how big of a difference it makes when someone believes they can actually do it. I really try to celebrate the small wins — whether they’ve just understood a tough concept or even…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to share their passion for learning, helping them view education as an exciting adventure rather than just another task.

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.
