Ethan
Tutor Mona Vale, NSW
Personally, I believe that in order to be a good tutor it is necessary to provide a level of support that feels as if it extends beyond the obligation that the position you hold is your job. I believe it is crucial to possess a genuine understanding for the strengths and flaws of your students in order to properly and efficiently deliver supoort…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to provide the student with deep understanding of concepts so that the student can approach future challenges with the confidence that they can work through it on their own, even if it is unfamiliar. There is so much more to mathematics than just memorisation as so many people believe, they key is problem…

William
Tutor Church Point, NSW
Being a good listener and adjusting to what I think is best for them for me is very important. Some students may be fully motivated to do the best they can and I can therefore assign them with homework, whilst also ensuring they don't feel either overwhelmed or not receiving enough, which therefore requires communication. The next important thing…

Tutor Mona Vale, NSW
One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is give them a personalised teaching experience. Often there are other factors at play in the progress of a student's learning than just their mental ability. Being able to recognise and connect to the child will open up numerous learning pathways to allow them to reach their full…

Lucinda

I think a tutor, or any teacher, can honestly make or break a subject. As a tutor, I want to be able to make a student fall in love with what they are teaching them, rather than them seeing going to tutoring as a chore. I find my biggest strength to be that I get along well with younger kids and other people in general. I am very patient, and dont…

Edward
Tutor Bilgola Plateau, NSW
One main thing I realised was important for a tutor is to not expect the student to learn/understand things in the exact same way you do. Being open to hearing how a student learns best and being able to vary the teaching style is vital. I think I am quite adaptable and can explain singular concepts in many different ways depending on which the…

I think the most important thing is persistence. If the tutor isn’t motivated to help the student, the student won’t be motivated either. I also think it’s necessary for a tutor to try to explain things in different ways with patience ensuring the student understands. I am very passionate about maths, I am also very persistent and have good…

The number one thing is being supportive and being there for the student no matter what. I believe having a shoulder to lean on that doesn't criticize but also has a slight push is crucial for a positive relationship between tutor and tutee.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to not only teach the material, but find a way to communicate it effectively.

This also helps as content taught in our sessions will flow better, and create more engagement from the student. Having…

Inside Mona ValeTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
