Ancient History Tutor Annandale, NSW
Teach obviously! but i think if the tutor can make the lessons as fun as possible so that the student looks forward to them as something enjoyable rather than as purely work, the best results will occur. I am an excellent communicator and can teach via example quite effectively in almost any subject. I am easily able to match my communication…

I think a good tutor needs to first and foremost be able to understand the level of their student in order to help them improve. I also think that being able to re-explain mathematical theories and concepts in alternative ways is essential in helping students to fully comprehend the subject. I feel patience is key, but a good tutor also needs to…

Encourage them to pursue their dreams. Teach them to be lifelong learners. I believe you have completely understood the concept when you can simplify it entirely. So, the student should totally grasp the concepts at hand. A tutor can help the student realize their passions, and help them achieve it. Making the students interested in the subject by…

I think as a tutor the most important thing you can do is to teach a student to want to learn, rather than just giving them all the answers, because if you give them positive reinforcement they can do the work themselves and feel much more accomplished. I think I am calm and understanding, but know when to be firm if I need to be to help the kids…

Over the years, I have developed the opinion that the teaching of transferable skills - contrary to only what is needed at the moment - is most valuable for the student’s future development. It is important to see that just completing the mandatory homework will not suffice, the real challenge is to change the mindset. As a good tutor, one has…

Motivation and confidence are two key elements of student success, if I can support them in achieving a sense of self-efficacy regarding these elements, they are bound to see improvement. Students often know where they fall short in their work, they just need motivation to improve those areas. Once they know that they can achieve this themselves,…

The most important thing that a tutor can do at first, is build a rapport and a relationship of trust. In order to connect with a student, a tutor must be able to forge a strong connection that is much the same as a mentor to a younger generation. Further from this, a tutor must be able to assess the genuine ability of a student - this is crucial,…

Tutoring can be challenging, especially when it comes to motivating your learner.

Inside SydneyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student worked on addition and subtraction strategies, using number lines to visualise solutions.

In Year 10, Olivia focused on advanced trigonometry by reviewing her recent test and then tackled polynomials from chapter 22b.1.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student spent the session revising circle geometry concepts and began preparing for upcoming exam questions by applying key theorems to practice problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student had to revisit the logs chapter quickly due to time pressure, which meant gaps in understanding persisted into revision.

In Year 8 algebra, a reluctance to show working made it hard for her tutor to spot where negatives and positives went astray—she skipped showing steps in rearranging equations, so errors stayed hidden.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student struggled with concentration during worded problems and left several questions unfinished.

For a senior English task, one student avoided linking evidence back to topic sentences, leading to half-complete assignments that missed out on marks for structure and clarity.

Recent Achievements

One Sydney tutor noticed a Year 11 student who, after weeks of needing reminders, now double-checks her answers independently and has cut down on careless mistakes.

In Year 9, a previously hesitant student is starting to tackle circle geometry questions solo—last session she completed two problem sets without asking for help.

From the younger years, a Year 3 child who struggled with reading aloud managed to read an entire short paragraph and explain its meaning in her own words by the end of their latest session.

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 State Library of NSW—or at your child's school (with permission), like Macquarie Grammar School.
