Probably to make sure they understand the underlying material rather than just giving the answers. Helping them through problems, and actually encouraging and motivating them along without just revealing the answers will help develop their problem solving skills, making the next problems easier to overcome. I adapt to specific student's different…

Having faced challenges in Science during my high school, I am aware of the problems students face in understanding complex mathematical concepts. My method is to build a strong relationship with the student. The student should not take me as a teacher but more like a friend or brother whom the student can confide in. They should discuss their…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is offer support, not just academically. Offering the student emotional support and boosting confidence is just as important as assisting in academic and school work as it makes them eager to learn and enjoy the process. I am a very patient person and am highly understanding. I do not like to…

I believe that a tutor cannot elevate a student's competency into a whole new level but they themselves do. Therefore, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them recognise their potential and become more passionate about studying through personalised lessons, through which they can become engaged and self-develop their…

This includes strengthening inter-modular connections so they see how ideas fit together rather than viewing topics in isolation. It’s also important to identify gaps early, simplify complex concepts, and minimise stress by providing clarity,…

By guiding them to understand the basics deeply and think critically, tutors can…

Tutors can provide a one-on-one situation where they're able to realise the students weaknesses and target those areas. They can also be someone else for the students to ask questions where they may be too shy or unable to during a large classroom environment.

Inside MortdaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student worked on adding and subtracting fractions, including changing between mixed numerals and improper fractions, as well as multiplying and dividing fractions.

Year 8 student Kirsten focused on geometry topics like identifying corresponding, alternate, and co-interior angles, plus solving for missing angles in triangles using angle sum properties.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Reece tackled advanced mechanics by practising projectile motion questions and developed skills in rearranging the subject of equations to support his HSC exam preparation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 maths, one student's written work on percentages often lacked clear steps, making it difficult to see where confusion with multiplying and dividing began—he tends to forget the process but remembers when guided.

A Year 11 physics student struggled to complete questions without direct prompting; missing out on independent problem-solving meant "finishing the questions alone was an issue."

In Year 7, another student's trouble with identifying straight angles showed up as incomplete solutions when not given examples or pointers. This left them unable to check their own answers during practice sessions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Mortdale noticed a real turnaround for one Year 12 student who used to get stuck on modern physics problems—after focused practice, he can now handle electric and magnetic field questions with much less prompting.

Another high schooler has begun taking her own notes during sessions, something she previously avoided; this shift means she's recognising gaps in her understanding and actively working to fix them.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who was hesitant about mixed numerals now confidently switches between improper fractions and mixed numbers and breezes through decimal addition tasks without needing reminders.

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 Penshurst Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Penshurst West Public School.
