I think the most important thing is not only being decent at explaining and individually creating a good tutoring plan for the student but also to be empathetic. Without empathy, the student will not feel like the tutor understands their struggles and is truly trying to help them. Apart from showing them that understanding and kindly communicating…

I see students as a clay model, which consists of different minerals and when it is subjected to appropriate pressure and temperature together with proper guidance and methods, it converts into a masterpiece ceramic. Being a tutor is like being their (students) second parent. So I can assure 100% guidance towards their study plan. Help them in…

The most important thing to me is the ability of a tutor to care for and listen to a student. The needs of a students is usually known by the student and is always important to not assume what the student needs but pay attention and listen to them. My strengths include being patient and altering my teaching style to suit the learning style of a…

I think the most important things a tutor can do is to make the content understandable rather than just helping to memorise it. But also to normalise mistakes and to assert the importance of educated guessing. Any student can learn faster by giving something a go rather than waiting until they are certain. I believe I can explain and break down…

As a tutor, I believe that the most important thing I can bring to a student is a different perspective on the subject matter they are studying. While teachers and textbooks can be great resources, they often present the material in a standardized and one-size-fits-all way that may not resonate with every student. By providing a different voice…

I believe that a tutor shouldn't be perceived as a strictly authoritative figure - keeping the student engaged and building a strong relationship is a vital component in the effectiveness of the tutoring.

I think the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is listen. Listen to their problem, why they may not understand a concept, and then help to solve the problem together. I think that having fun, is also very important. One of my main goals aside from helping a student understand the content, is to help the student enjoy the…

I would consider the most important thing a tutor could do, would be to teach their student more than they knew to begin with. It's a very simple statement, but it gets to the heart of the matter I feel. All the methods a tutor uses should be geared towards helping the student learn something, and have them understand and remember what they've…

I can't express how awesome Peter was, keeping stress levels down, keeping focus and really drilling down in problem areas to help reinforce understanding. Peter was great with and for my son.

Inside NarrabundahTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Ari focused on statistics, working through mean, median, mode, and box-and-whisker plots, then practiced creating and interpreting pie graphs and describing theoretical probability.

Year 8 student Muhammad concentrated on English skills by developing a collaborative crime fiction podcast assignment—profiling characters and drafting scenes—and also read "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas," answering comprehension questions and exploring vocabulary.

For primary support, Year 3 student Josh completed an English assessment covering reading comprehension and did a mini NAPLAN math test to check foundational numeracy skills.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 English, one student forgot to bring his homework for the week, which limited his ability to review and apply feedback in session.

For a Year 9 Ancient History essay, another student deleted his draft after a last-minute format change but did not send a new version for feedback—he may have been pressed for time or reluctant to share, as noted.

In Year 7 Mathematics, a student struggled with showing working on linear graph problems, making it difficult to identify where misunderstandings occurred.

Meanwhile, a senior English student needed more organized planning before exams rather than relying on ad-hoc preparation.

Recent Achievements

One Narrabundah tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to ask questions now proactively requests clarification when stuck, especially during work on linear equations—marking a big shift from guessing through problems in silence.

In Year 11 English, another student took the initiative to revise his thesis statement after realising it didn't quite fit the essay prompt, making it clearer and more concise without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who struggled with open-ended writing tasks has begun finding his own words for responses when given scaffolded support, rather than waiting for suggestions.

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 Kingston Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Narrabundah Early Childhood School.
