I think the most important thing I can do for a student is to help them understand their own learning styles and reflect on the areas in which they need more help. Helping students become more independent and reflective learners can enhance their enjoyment of the learning process. Also, I think it's important to find ways to get a student to be…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to develop their confidence and skills to be able to problem solve independently. That requires building a students skills to not only understand the techniques which can be used but also how to most effectively apply them. This is particularly important as it enables students to become…

Each student has different ideas and personalities, and tutoring for learning needs to be tailored to the student's needs. Every student has potential but needs to be identified and encouraged, and tutors need to respect and understand them. It is also important that the tutor's expertise is fully familiar and knowledgeable about…

Personally I think the most important thing for a tutor to do for a child is to create a fun and helpful environment. A child obviously will disengage with a tutor and learning content if the tutor is detrimentally critical of a student which would instill fear and anxiety in the child and in fact, make them absorb less of what the tutor is…

The most important thing that I can do as a tutor would be to make sure the kid understands everything that I teach. Each kid is different. Finding the right teaching style for that kid and teaching as such will make the kid more involved into the subject and makes learning fun. I am a very good observer and an active listener. I make sure I tend…

Local Reviews

Once you have the right tutor for your child, you can see quick results.
Julie, Erskineville

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.
