Believing in the student is the most vital quality in the tutor-student relationship in my opinion. When there is genuine faith that the student can achieve their goal, it is within my duty as their tutor to help them reach it by doing additional research, being motivated each session, and planning and organising their materials ahead of time so…

I think the most important thing for a tutor is to understand what the student needs and work through those blocks with positive reinforcement. Some students have a hard time understanding concepts while others have no faith in themselves and struggle to retain information. I believe that the best thing a tutor can do for a student is to figure…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do is create a safe and supportive space where the student feels comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. Learning can be intimidating, especially when someone is struggling, so it’s crucial that a tutor builds trust and encourages curiosity without judgment. When a student feels safe…

Patience is an essential quality required from a tutor as it is important to acknowledge that every student has a different level of understanding and approach towards their studies, and thus the best method of maximising their understanding is to tailor our teaching methods to motivate their learning and provide an encouraging learning…

Inside Rooty HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Caleb revised fractions, decimals, and percentages, focusing on applying these concepts through homework tasks.

Year 8 student Agazio wrapped up a Geography assignment with emphasis on formatting and rephrasing, then moved on to structuring his English assessment using detailed examples.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student worked through solving algebraic linear equations and practiced simultaneous solving methods in line with current classroom topics.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Mathematics, a student relied heavily on calculators and avoided showing working out—this made it difficult to spot and correct errors. As noted, "He needs to reduce dependance on calculators when asked to show working out."

In Year 9 English, another student struggled with motivation and rarely explained her thought process, which left gaps in understanding during essay planning.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner was urged to write answers more clearly after messy columns led to mistakes in times tables.

The challenge of not slowing down or re-reading questions in NAPLAN practice left avoidable confusion unresolved.

Recent Achievements

One Rooty Hill tutor noticed a real shift in Ricky, a high school student who previously hesitated to attempt questions—he now takes initiative to solve problems himself, even back-checking his work independently.

Zariyah, also in high school, showed new adaptability by quickly engaging with online learning and making the most of lessons after time off.

In Year 3, Caleb's attitude improved markedly; after a long break, he jumped straight back into tasks he'd found uncomfortable before and asked for extra practice.

Last week, Amayah integrated English study into maths session without missing a beat.

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 Mt Druitt Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Rooty Hill Public School.
