At face value, the most important thing is of course getting good results itself. That is the intent and purpose of the tutor. But in the bigger picture, the tutor must also develop the soft skills of the student, develop professionalism and perfectionism in their work, develop discipline and help them grow holistically I am patient, can come up…

I think the most crucial part of any tutoring experience is to make sure that the student knows that the tutor is there for them and will not get frustrated if mess something up. If the tutor comes off as condescending or annoyed at a lack of progress, it can allow the student to put added pressure on him/herself or create an aversion to learning…

Do not try to impose the thought that he believes the correct solution and try to explain to the student how to arrive at the reasoning that gives the answer. I consider that I have a fairly dense knowledge in mathematics and I am able to approach problems from different perspectives to ensure that the student understands it. I am also quite…

The most important things are building students' confidence, clearing all their doubts, and adapting to their needs and learning styles.

A tutor should be able to explain concepts in a manner which allows students to understand the concepts and apply it elsewhere. A tutor should assist students in understanding concepts on a deeper level, rather than just rote learning. Furthermore, a tutor should be passionate in what they teach. A teacher that is passionate about subjects will…

For me, passion is the most important thing. I used to be the one who didn't like maths, and the main reason was that I didn't understand it thoroughly. It might sound weird, but since I met my math teacher in high school, I have believed in the concept of PASSION, as how she delivered the lessons, her eyes, and her willingness to guide students…

Personalised progress is the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. This is because, with personalised progress, the students can focus on their individual needs. About me, I completed advanced acceleration maths in year 11 with an HSC result of 88, so I was not completely satisfied with the mark. Hence, I have repeated in my year 12…

A tutor’s first responsibility is to build a student’s confidence. Many students struggle not because they lack ability, but because they doubt themselves. By offering encouragement, celebrating progress, and reassuring them that mistakes are part of learning, a tutor can help replace fear with self-belief. Confidence often becomes the…

The most important thing a tutor can and SHOULD absolutely do for students is to find out what truly lies behind the student’s weaknesses. Whether that could be weak foundational knowledge or not enough practice, to things like not fully understanding what the question is asking for or the topic they are learning.

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.
