The traditional school provides a teaching method for the general student, however, tutoring allows for students' specific needs to be met, whether they're not being challenged enough at school or require additional assistance. Curating lesson plans that target areas of improvement and application through constant revision is pivotal to any…

I think the most important thing for a tutor is to always have faith in the student despite witnessing constant failures and lack of improvement. I think it's really important to be able to empathise and simply be with the student during these difficult moments, whilst letting them know they have the potential to improve and succeed over any…

A tutor should give honest time and effort to share the knowledge with his students.A tutor should also learn how to teach studnets based in their strengths and weaknesses.

I think the important things a tutor can do are to facilitate a student’s true understanding of the subject, instill confidence, and create a comfortable environment for them to ask questions.

I think the support a tutor should have for their student should not only be academic in nature– but rather, I believe the student's leadership qualities and extracurricular potential should be a focus for any tutor.

I believe that all providers of education should not only prepare a student for an exam, but to open the student's eyes to the wider world, where they can explore their passions. In this way, I consider confidence an important aspect that a tutor can provide to a student. School can sometimes feel so impossible, when sitting in a large classroom…

Help a student not only do better or to learn further in a subject but to actually inspire them to want to study and do they best that they can.

I believe tutors have the biggest impact on how a student approaches a subject. Speaking from personal experience, I don't think I would've liked studying the subjects I had in year 10, 11 and 12 if I hadn't had good teachers who knew how to make the subjects interesting to learn. A tutor is capable of making studying feel less burdensome and I…

Inside Minto HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 Leon focused on financial maths, including textbook problems on simple and compound interest, and reviewed homework questions.

For Year 11 Sanjli, lessons centred on functions—exploring domain, range, and function notation—alongside challenging surds and indices factorisation using worked examples.

Meanwhile, Year 12 Vasati sat a review exam covering rational numbers and operations with whole numbers to assess understanding before moving forward.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 mathematics, a student repeatedly rushed through equation manipulation tasks without carefully reading each question, which led to misinterpretation of worded problems and missed key details—"he does not read the question in depth and rushes to conclusions," noted one tutor.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student tackling trigonometry struggled to apply the correct formulas under timed conditions; confusion increased when encountering bearing questions that required careful breakdown of wording.

In Year 5 English, untidy handwriting and incomplete spelling practice meant errors were often overlooked during revision, making it harder for her to spot patterns or improve accuracy over time.

Recent Achievements

In Minto Heights, a Year 9 student who used to second-guess herself on tests completed an entire practice exam within the set time and even identified her own errors before being prompted.

Another high schooler made a shift from hesitating with worded maths questions to independently tackling tricky bearing problems and explaining her steps out loud.

Meanwhile, one of the younger students, who previously waited for help with unfamiliar words, now tries to sound them out herself and has started getting most spelling quiz answers right without prompting.

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 Greg Percival Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Al-Faisal College - Campbelltown.
