I believe tutors should be supportive in helping a student gain understanding of a subject, and assist them in building confidence in their own abilities. Tutors should also be comprehensive and thorough to ensure students maximise their potential. Effectively communicating ideas and supporting students to overcome challenges in their…

The most important thing a tutor can do for students is help them build confidence in their ability to learn. When students believe they are capable of understanding a subject, they become more willing to ask questions, attempt difficult problems, and stay motivated even when the material is challenging. A good tutor does more than just provide…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is give them confidence as a learner, not only for the subject they are learning, but more generally. Providing tutoring techniques that match the student's learning style is also extremely important. My passion for teaching brings a level of enthusiasm to lessons that helps to create a…

I think the most important thing as a tutor is not only to teach students. I think it's important to ensure whether the students were able to understand the topic. At the end of each class, I would engage and interact with each student about their understanding of the topic that was taught. I would also encourage them to ask questions if they…

First, I think it is very important for a tutor to monitor the progress of the student and try to tailor the lesson and provide additional help to the student, in order to address their weaknesses. This is the most efficient and beneficial way of tutoring, as it can keep the student on the right track, without falling behind significantly.…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do is to explain things as simply as possible and make sure the student fully understands the subject by testing them with examples. I also think that it is important that the student feels they can ask any question they want without feeling embarrassed. It is also important to form a strong…

One of the most important thing a tutor can do for a student, is not only make the subject fun and easier to understand but to make the student believe in himself/herself. Most of the students, do not feel very confident in their own understanding of the subject and hesitate to participate in class discussions. I believe by making the student…

Personally, I believe it would be helping them gain the confidence they need to recognize their potential and tackle challenges. A successful tutor would be able to inspire students to like their work or at least be willing to give their best. A tutor's job is to support and give students different approaches and mindsets in solving problems so…

A tutor possesses many pivotal roles in a student's journey to tertiary levels. I believe the single most crucial contribution a tutor can make is to fan the flame. If a student gives up on their own ability despite genuine interest, then their potential will be lost. A tutor has the unique capability, and responsibility, to recognise and…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to make the student feel at ease with the subject at hand, especially to the point where they begin their own individual methods of inquiry into the subject. A student should never feel under pressure to perform in ways that make them feel discouraged about their own abilities. The consequence of that is…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to inspire them and gives them a goal which they should work towards, as many students do poorly in exams simply because they lack a goal or something to work towards. If they have clear goals this makes achieving good results much easier. I am patient with students especially…

Raise their confidence. Teach them to build the skills required for them to be confident and be successful in their studies. Teach them all shortcuts to remember formulae and other subject content.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be patient. Being a student myself I have been reluctant to ask questions due to fear of being labeled slow or dumb.

Inside NewtownTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Lily focused on expanding and factorising perfect squares, as well as reviewing non-linear relationships through function graphs.

In Year 10, Sam worked through the turning point of parabolas, x- and y-intercepts, and solved quadratic equations using the quadratic formula with practice problems.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex explored the unit circle in depth, covering radian measure, arc length and sector area, plus applications involving negative and complementary angle formulae.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, messy written work in algebra and trigonometry—"works all over the place"—led to lost marks from sign errors and made revision harder later.

For a Year 11 student, reliance on answers during practice ("more practice without looking at answers") limited genuine recall under exam conditions.

A Year 9 student's tendency to avoid explaining working aloud caused confusion when tackling probability questions; as noted, "needs improvement in explaining his working out."

Meanwhile, one primary student's disinterest at lesson start sometimes derailed focus until momentum picked up, leaving key notes incomplete or untidy by session's end.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Newtown noticed a Year 11 student who used to hesitate with exam timing now confidently plans her approach, finishing all sections without rushing or missing marks.

Another high schooler, after previously struggling with advanced geometry questions, has started talking through his problem-solving out loud and now makes minimal errors even on tougher problems.

Meanwhile, an upper primary student who once needed reminders to stay focused completed his maths homework independently this week and planned his own revision for the first time. He finished the session by neatly writing out every calculation step 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 Newtown Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Australia Street Infants School.
