The most important thing would be to connect with the student, be on the same wavelength. If you can connect with your student then you can understand their struggles learning the content. It also allows the student to be more relaxed and less stressed which aids in their learning. If they see the process of getting tutored as a chore or a burden…

Neathen
Tutor Rydalmere, NSW
To begin with, a tutor must encourage a student to do better and learn from previous mistakes. Getting upset/impatient with a student is only going to discourage the student and prevent him/her from reaching potential; and that's the opposite of the desired goal. In addition, confidence has to be built in a student; this way a student will be able…

Local Reviews
Inside RydalmereTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 8 student Jason focused on direct and inverse proportion, along with revision of trigonometry concepts and surds from recent quizzes and homework.
For Year 10, Emma spent time revising addition and subtraction of surds as well as tackling more complex questions in coordinate geometry and trigonometry.
Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sarah worked through advanced integration techniques and differentiation equations, often applying these to exam-style problems for consolidation.
Recent Challenges
A Year 10 student repeatedly left maths homework incomplete, which led to confusion in class quizzes—especially on coordinate geometry and proportionality. As a tutor noted, "she was unable to complete the homework for proportionality," meaning she struggled when these concepts reappeared later.
For a Year 6 student, inconsistent note-taking made revision difficult; missed details from earlier algebra lessons resurfaced as obstacles during exam review.
In Year 4 writing, capitalisation and punctuation errors persisted because draft work wasn't checked or formatted clearly, making it hard to identify mistakes before submission.
Missed practice and weak organization have directly impacted confidence and recall across grades.
Recent Achievements
One Rydalmere tutoring session saw a Year 10 student who had previously struggled with simultaneous equations complete a tricky quiz question perfectly after targeted revision, and she now regularly checks her own mistakes during homework.
A high schooler working on exam prep started actively asking about optimal study schedules and linking topics like financial maths to real-life scenarios—showing new independence compared to past passivity.
Meanwhile, in primary years, one student who used to guess when unsure now openly asks for help with odd and even numbers, leading to more accurate answers each 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 Ermington Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Mary's Primary School.
