I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them not only build the skills they need for the subject they're being tutored in, but also to build the skills to be confident of themselves within it as well. From my experience being tutored both in maths and for an instrument, that was something my tutors helped me with,…

I think the most crucial part of any tutoring experience is to make sure that the student knows that the tutor is there for them and will not get frustrated if mess something up. If the tutor comes off as condescending or annoyed at a lack of progress, it can allow the student to put added pressure on him/herself or create an aversion to learning…

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.
