The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to teach the student how to think critically and laterally about the problems they face. My strengths as a tutor are definitely that while I don't push the students too hard I also don't just give them the answers. I give them the tools they need to work out the answers and…

Even though it sounds basic, I truly think that patience is the key. When you are respectful of the differences in how people learn it can allow the student to feel more comfortable and willing to engage. Taking time to work through things and giving positive and constructive feedback is crucial. I believe that I am able to find other methods and…

Ultimately, the most important things a tutor can do for a student are provide academic guidance, human connection, consistency, and the combination of these factors can potentially reinvent a class, subject, or school more broadly for a young learner.

The most important quality that a tutor needs is patience. It is crucial that a tutor takes their time to work out what their student's strengths and weaknesses are, so they can help the student improve. Then, they need to be ready to answer the students' questions as many times as they need to. They also need to articulate their knowledge in a…

The most important thing is being able to breakdown the small aspects in what they are lacking. For instance, if the student does not comprehend a certain topic, the tutor should be able to go back to the root of their problem, solving that root problem often leads to results in the main issue. As a former International Baccalaureate High School…

Inside TarrawannaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Danu worked on HSC Chemistry content, focusing on mole calculations, electron configuration (including spdf notation), and intermolecular forces.

Year 10 student Zali practised adding and subtracting multi-digit numbers and tackled worded problems, then moved to number patterns and interpreting number lines for improved numeracy skills.

For primary support, a Year 4 session with Allegra covered multiplication using games like Prime Climb and introduced tangram puzzles to reinforce geometric shapes in a hands-on way.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Chemistry, a student was reminded to prepare notes from slides before sessions but often arrived without them—this made it harder to discuss average molecular weight and spdf notation ahead of a quiz.

During Year 10 revision for maths assessments, "she needs to show explicit working out for each question," as one tutor noted, yet her written steps remained brief or missing.

In Year 7, keeping worksheets and notes scattered meant extra time searching for material instead of reviewing exponents.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner left homework incomplete and required frequent encouragement just to begin reading tasks.

Recent Achievements

A Tarrawanna tutoring session saw a Year 11 student, Charlotte, shift from feeling unsure about her writing to independently setting clear academic goals and asking targeted questions about each topic—something she hadn't done before.

Meanwhile, Felicity (Year 10) began actively self-correcting small mistakes in her essays without prompting and used more varied adjectives after initially struggling to diversify her vocabulary.

In primary school, Allegra's tutor noted that she was once anxious in maths class but is now so engaged she earned a commendation card for improvement and proudly said she no longer feels nervous about maths.

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 Corrimal District Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Tarrawanna Public School.
