The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them understand what they themselves cannot.

Most importantly a tutor should understand the goals and needs of each student individually - what they find difficult and why they struggle with certain concepts. Subsequently, tutors should teach students the concepts and ensure they understand how to solve problems, this provides lifelong problem solving skills rather than memorised methods to…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to realise when a student actually understands a topic, or if they need more help. Too often students will say that they understand but they don't want to admit they still don't. The tutor should be able to break down a subject in multiple ways, and choose which way fits particular students' learning…

Help him get to ease with the course, make it not feel like a burden but something the pupil has control over, allow him to see his strengths and focus on the knowledge he is gaining from it, and how he can benefit from it.

Inside Orchard HillsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5, Oliver revised multiplication, subtraction, and division of fractions in depth, as well as key concepts in rates and ratios.

In Year 10, William focused on applications of differentiation—specifically tackling HSC-style questions—and began consolidating his understanding of coordinate geometry through targeted textbook exercises.

For Year 11, Grace completed practice exam papers covering advanced calculus topics such as integral calculus and rates of change, while also working on graphing techniques and curve sketching.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9, a student's written work in trigonometry became difficult to follow when questions were left incomplete or only partially attempted—"couldn't finish off the trig topic," one tutor noted—which made it hard to spot where misunderstandings occurred.

A Year 12 learner, working through HSC past papers, sometimes avoided earlier exam sections during revision and missed practicing end-of-paper questions; this limited exposure to tougher problems under real conditions.

In upper primary, inconsistent spelling practice led to repeated errors with "elaborate words," as feedback wasn't always reviewed before moving on.

Unfinished papers and partial revision left students unsure about which concepts truly needed more attention.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Orchard Hills noticed a Year 11 student who had struggled to ask for help with maths is now confidently requesting clarification when stuck, rather than staying silent.

During high school revision sessions, one Year 9 student made a leap by reading out loud without hesitating on difficult words—something she previously avoided.

In primary, a Year 4 learner began using number lines independently to find patterns after earlier needing step-by-step prompting.

Most recently, a secondary student completed all assigned questions for a tough chapter in trigonometry, choosing to tackle the hardest example first without hesitation.

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 Penrith City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Montgrove College.
