The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is dedicate as much time and effort needed for the student to fully understand the topic.

Most important would definitely be effort towards a student.

Inside PrairiewoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Emily worked on equations involving algebraic expressions and fractions, as well as mean, median, mode and interpreting dot plots in data.

Year 8 student Emily focused on the distance formula and midpoint formula, then moved to gradient calculations using both formulas and graphs.

Year 9 student Emily tackled financial mathematics by calculating weekly wages and overtime pay, followed by understanding income tax and net versus gross pay.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often arrived late and unprepared for lessons, which meant valuable time was spent recapping missed content rather than moving forward.

"She sometimes isn't paying attention to the lesson," a tutor observed during algebra revision, resulting in gaps that made new material harder to grasp.

In Year 11 Legal Studies, forgetting to bring notes or not revising earlier topics led to confusion when trying to link recent cases with legal principles.

Missed homework in Year 10 Maths left methods half-remembered, so key steps were forgotten on tests—especially when under time pressure.

Recent Achievements

One Prairiewood tutor noticed a Year 9 student who had been hesitant to ask for help now regularly speaks up when confused, making it easier for her to grasp trickier maths topics like equations involving fractions.

In another high school session, a student initially struggled with law reform concepts but by the end could explain key cases in detail, even bringing in her own researched examples.

Meanwhile, a primary student who previously mixed up times tables is now reciting them smoothly each week and completed all ten multiplication problems without errors during the lesson.

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 Wetherill Park Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mary MacKillop Catholic College.
