This will help them build confidence. A tutor must be able to make the student understand what s/he is teaching. The teaching must be fun and exciting. As a tutor, i…

Teaching effectively so that the student can understand the content.

The tutor must also commit to every class and treat every student equally with respect. - My strength are maths and…

It is so important for tutors to adapt their method of teaching to the way the student learns. Every student not only has different needs and difficulties, but learns concepts differently. It is extremely important to regularly re-evaluate the student's objectives. Modifying your approach as a tutor to make the student feel comfortable and…

Inside Rodd PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Lachlan focused on introductory algebra, working through a custom booklet and practicing foundational equation-solving.

In Year 10, Sophie revised financial mathematics—including error in measurement—by tackling last-minute practice questions she selected ahead of an exam.

For Year 11, Alex concentrated on curve sketching with the derivative and worked through global maximum and minimum problems to strengthen understanding for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student missed revision work from Term 1 and, as a tutor noted, "has not done any work on this revision on his own," limiting his readiness for upcoming exams.

In Year 12 Standard Maths, another student failed to mention an assignment until after completion—missing the chance for targeted support.

Messy working was evident with one Year 10: "crams working onto one page," making errors harder to spot and fix.

Several senior students repeatedly forgot key formulae or relied too heavily on memorisation rather than understanding, especially in trigonometry and algebra; one admitted, "I don't use the formula sheet much."

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Rodd Point recently noticed a big shift in one Year 11 student, who started asking for help and clarifying questions about trig rather than just memorising steps—something he used to avoid.

In Year 10, another student began tackling algebra homework independently before sessions, showing initiative that hadn't been there last term.

Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 6 finally managed to complete all their calculation-based problems without needing hints after previously hesitating on worded maths questions.

Last week, one high schooler finished an entire practice test within the time limit and got nearly every answer correct.

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 Five Dock Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Dobroyd Point Public School.
