Tutor Darwin, NT
I feel the most important thing that a tutor can do is to listen to the students as they explain what they don't understand and to help fully explain the solution of the problem to the student and to verify that the students understands the new concepts. I am patient with the students and I can work through many examples with the student until he…

One of the most important things a tutor can do is understand a students potential and pushing them to do to their best. I think I would be a good strict tutor who would push people to do their best. To me, the best tutoring style is one that caters to the specific student in their best learning…

Tutor Wagaman, NT
A tutor should be patient and never say something is easy. They should always encourage and find ways to explain something step-by-step such that everything is explained and can be linked back to a central idea. I am patient, friendly, and I can see and understand why something can be difficult to understand. I encourage and can relate to finding…

Tutor Casuarina, NT
From my experience with tutors, I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student are. Recognising someone's improvements, recalling how a student has overcome a challenge in the past can be a great motivator for the present as well as build self-confidence. Being a role model, students will be influenced by a tutor's method of…

Tutor Casuarina, NT
I believe one of the most important thing would be to build a student's confidence, teaching them to feel positive about themselves. Perhaps the student feels incapable of solving problems,despite possessing the ability. Thus, it is a tutor's duty to show students that they are capable and believe in themselves. It is also important that the…

Inside ParapTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Elise worked on adding and subtracting mixed fractions with different denominators, as well as reviewing reading comprehension skills using a worksheet.

In Year 10, Amelie focused on trigonometric functions and the unit circle, including how to use radians to determine exact values.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Michael tackled quadratic equations—practising root-finding methods and applying the discriminant to graph parabolas.

Recent Challenges

A Year 7 student repeatedly left homework unfinished, which meant lesson time was spent catching up rather than moving ahead. As one tutor noted, "we too often lose a lot of time during the lesson finishing work that should have already been completed."

In Year 10 Maths, a student's written working was described as "very haphazard," making it hard to follow their calculations or revise effectively later.

Meanwhile, in Year 12, over-reliance on calculators and jumping straight to answers without showing full working led to lost marks in assessments—especially when required formats weren't followed.

Confidence sometimes faltered after mistakes, slowing progress mid-task.

Recent Achievements

One Parap tutor noticed a big shift in Amelie (Year 11), who now pinpoints exactly where she went wrong on her maths tests and confidently corrects mistakes herself, instead of waiting for hints—something she hesitated to do just weeks ago.

Elise (Year 7) surprised both herself and her tutor by tackling Year 8-level internal and external conflict worksheets with clear, step-by-step reasoning, after previously finding multi-step tasks overwhelming.

Meanwhile, Noah (Year 6) has started checking his own test answers independently, catching and fixing errors without prompting before moving on to new problems.

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 City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Parap Primary School.
