Support is definitely the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. Homework can be frustrating and stressful when you don't understand a topic, and that makes motivation dry up fast! Helping support the emotional side of learning can facilitate the intellectual growth of students; everything's a lot harder when you're struggling! My…

The most important thing a tutor can do for the student is to believe in them and show encouragement. Self-esteem can be extremely vulnerable during schooling years, and tutors have the power to enhance their students' level of self-confidence and sense of self-efficacy. When I believe in their potential, work with their strengths, support their…

When I tutor students, I tend not to follow the same pattern or process of learning for every kid. I believe tutor can play huge role in a student’s life when it comes to teaching them how to fish rather than serving the fish.

I believe that tutors need to help students feel confident in their ability. When a student feels more confident in their work they will be able to see more clearly their potential and this will help them perform better in their assessments. Tutors need to be supportive of students and encourage them to work hard, not do all their work for them.…

The outright role of a tutor is to improve a student's area of understanding of a subject and thus improve their grades for it.

Inside Peakhurst HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Charlotte practised area and surface area calculations for both simple and composite shapes, using visual examples to support understanding.

Year 8 student Josh focused on solving linear equations and working with indices in the context of fractions, also touching briefly on geometry concepts.

For Year 10 student Mia, sessions covered financial mathematics including both simple and compound interest problems, along with strategies for breaking down worded exam questions into step-by-step solutions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 mathematics, one student's written work was described as "messy and hard to follow," particularly during algebraic manipulation; this made it easy for small sign errors to go unnoticed until the very end.

A Year 10 student, despite a strong grasp of trigonometric basics, struggled with multi-step problems because they rarely practiced challenging questions—preferring only familiar drills.

Meanwhile, in Year 6, a learner relied heavily on mental calculations instead of writing steps out, leading to frequent mistakes in surface area problems. "Mental maths is a huge time killer," their tutor observed after several sessions spent correcting basic multiplication slips rather than advancing.

Recent Achievements

One Peakhurst Heights tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student who had struggled with algebraic expansion; by the end of their session, she was confidently working through problems that had previously tripped her up.

Another high schooler, after several sessions on trigonometry, began attempting more challenging questions independently and even requested extra examples to solidify new rules—something he hesitated to do before.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student who used to stay quiet now speaks up when unsure and takes notes on tricky steps so she can revisit them during homework.

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 Penshurst Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Georges River College Peakhurst Campus.
