To me, the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to be firm but patient, and to allow them to solve problems/formulate ideas themselves, not just be fed information to rote-learn. I believe this style of educating enables students to develop their own confidence as they actually understand what they’re doing, not just taking a…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is be supportive. All behaviour is belief driven, if a tutor convinces a pupil that he can do it, he will. I believe I am calm, patient, persevering, and supportive. Especially when it comes to perseverance, I will not be deterred if a student doesn't originally understand my explanations as, if I…

I believe that is essential for a tutor to establish and master the “groundwork’’ and fundamental concepts with the students before moving on to more complicated concepts. For subjects like Mathematics and Physics, new knowledge is very commonly built on knowledge that you have learnt before. As a result, tutors need to make sure that…

1. Revise fundamental concepts as they are essential to solve more complex problems. 2. Always break down the question before trying to solve problems. This makes the problem become simpler to solve and stimulates recall of the basic concepts that they have learnt before. 3. Always summarise what has been learnt as this helps to consolidate…

The most important things that a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, are motivating the students to learn on their own as well as arming them with the tools and study skills. The motivation to learn is critical, since the tutor can teach the material, but at the end of the day, it is the student who has to master it. Without such…

Inside Phillip BayTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Alex reviewed simultaneous equations by forming equations from word problems and practiced solving both equations and inequalities step-by-step.

For Year 10, Sarah focused on trigonometry basics, including applying the sine and cosine rules to solve for unknown sides and angles in triangles.

In Year 11, James worked through exam-style questions involving depreciation calculations, converting between percentages and units, and rounding numbers to significant figures.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student arrived at a session with an assessment due that day, making it impossible to provide meaningful feedback before submission—"student is requested to send email…within the deadline time period."

In Year 9, another struggled to communicate progress or needs, leading to missed opportunities for targeted support.

A senior secondary student's confidence wavered after setbacks in complex maths topics; anxiety and uncertainty made open discussion difficult.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student skipped writing out working in algebra, which "hid small sign errors" and slowed their ability to identify mistakes during revision.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Phillip Bay noticed a Year 11 student who used to skip over tricky simultaneous equations now working through each step independently and checking her solutions without prompting.

Another high schooler, after weeks of hesitating to ask questions, began openly identifying where he got stuck on sine and cosine rule problems and requested extra practice.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who previously rushed mental maths is now pausing to set out her working logically before answering. Last session, she completed every question using this new approach—no skipped steps or guesswork.

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 Malabar Community Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like La Perouse Public School.
