I think an important role tutor must be able to do is to be able to adaptable in their teaching style to cater to the needs of students. Additionally being relatable and exploring how this knowledge can be expanded to world wide applications.

Always be available for them when they need help and creating an environment that lets them do that. If kids don't want to ask you for help, I wonder what the point of tutoring is then. I think I have lots of patience as a tutor as I have struggled in school as well and can understand where their struggles may…

A tutor should create a supportive and patient environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes, as this fosters growth and deeper understanding. Instead of just providing answers, a biology tutor should guide students to think through problems, helping them develop problem-solving skills and independence. Adapting…

The most important thing a biology 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…

In my opinion the most important things a biology tutor can offer a student is confidence and guidance. This is because as a tutor, building a student's confidence can directly impact their attitude towards learning and how well they can achieve the marks they are aiming for. Similarly, by giving guidance to a student, not only prompts them into…

The most important thing as a biology tutor is to help students connect to what they are learning. It is the job of the tutor to differentiate instruction based on the learning preferences of the students. Further, a tutor reinforces what the students have been learning at school.

Not give the answers but help support the learning process and give guidance when the child needs it most.

I think the most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is to help them understand the course content- so they can pass assessment- and also to help them understand other aspects of the subject they need or want to understand, either for the sake of curiosity or because they have some use for it. It is best if this understanding is…

Tutoring is mainly about facilitating the students understanding of concepts, but the tutor should also aim to foster a drive in the student to understand why they are struggling with the respective topic and a will to seek a solution on their own. The tutor should eventually seek to equip students with self-awareness and a drive for…

Local Reviews

My daughter and I are both very happy with Thibault. She has only had one session with him but said he was good at explaining and he was able to answer her questions. He was also encouraging, punctual and very polite. We are very happy to continue with him.

Inside RiverwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Emily worked through negative and fractional indices as well as reviewing measurement concepts like area and volume in preparation for an upcoming topic test.

For Year 10, Jacob focused on revising functions—specifically cubic curves—and practiced curve sketching using assignment-style questions.

Meanwhile, Year 3 student Raeed explored subtraction strategies by counting backwards and compared numbers up to the thousands using greater than and less than symbols.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student tackling trigonometry struggled to select the correct rule in multi-step problems; "highlighting key words helped, but remembering formulas was still a hurdle."

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student repeatedly skipped writing working for algebra, which led to confusion and small errors that took extra time to trace.

For one Year 7 student, forgetting to bring notes meant missing connections between lessons—she found herself unable to apply previous strategies when new worded questions appeared.

After setbacks on past paper questions, a Year 10 learner hesitated to attempt unfamiliar problems without guidance, leading to slower progress and shaken confidence.

Recent Achievements

A Riverwood tutor noticed Liam, a Year 12 student, now tackles advanced trigonometry questions without any help—he used to need frequent hints but recently completed several HSC problems solo and could explain each step.

Charlotte in Year 11 has started breaking down complex multi-step financial maths tasks on her own, using strategies like "talking aloud" and back-checking her work instead of rushing or skipping steps as she did before. She is now working independently.

Meanwhile, Matthew in Year 3 is not just solving worded problems faster; he's begun identifying which operation to use himself rather than waiting for prompts from the tutor. This new independence stands out.

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 Riverwood Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Joseph's Catholic Primary School.
