I think a tutor should empower students to think for themselves, as this is what is required for the student to succeed independently when taking exams. So the most important thing I could do as a tutor is to encourage students to work out answers rather than giving it to them immediately. I pride myself on being patient. I believe strongly that…

I think my strengths as a tutor is my ability to provide explanations…

Inside NarraweenaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ava worked on multiplying two-digit numbers using the grid method and reviewed key phonemes and graphemes in English.

For Year 9, Lucas practised solving simultaneous equations by both substitution and elimination methods, as well as finding points of intersection between lines.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Maya focused on applying trigonometry to non-right-angled triangles and interpreting compass bearings through diagram-based questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, one student "solved questions in his head," which led to confusion with signs and missing calculation errors—his written work was sparse, making it difficult to catch mistakes during review.

For a Year 10 geometry topic, another student often omitted final units or misread key words under exam pressure; as noted, "he sometimes forgets to add the final units which may cost him a mark."

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student's workbook showed inconsistent layout and slow writing speed; equations were written horizontally instead of stacked, leading to muddled working. In these moments, clarity slipped away just when accuracy mattered most.

Recent Achievements

One Narraweena tutor recently saw a big shift in Will, a high school student who used to mix up positive and negative values—he now solves challenging algebra questions without hesitation and no longer confuses the two.

Scarlett, also in high school, struggled at first with simultaneous equations under pressure but managed to complete them accurately during revision sessions set up like real exams.

Meanwhile, Morgan (Year 5) has moved from guessing to deliberately breaking compound shapes into smaller parts for area calculations and now explains her steps out loud instead of rushing through.

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 Dee Why Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Narraweena Public School.
