Science Tutor Gosford, NSW
Help them enjoy learning. The role of a tutor should be to engage the student and make the learning process fun, encouraging them to put more effort into their learning, consequently improving their results. As well as this, it is vital that a tutor guide the student to a solution rather than simply giving them the answer, allowing them to…

Be present and engaged in each lesson and ensure they thoroughly understand each topic before moving on. I would say my main strengths are patience and communication. When it comes to breaking down questions, it helps to work through things slowly and ensure understanding at each…

Science Tutor Gosford, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is giving them confidence that they can learn. This will give them confidence to try and be creative in finding ways to understand any complex topic they need to know. One of my strengths as a tutor is that I am creative in discussing complex topics. I can discuss the same topic in different…

Science Tutor Ettalong Beach, NSW
Implement creativity and a willingness to try is the most important skill a tutor can pass on to their students. Once a student builds a willingness to try and a need to challenge themselves, they will be more likely to build good habits and routines around creating these pathways for themselves. I always ask myself 'how do students learn' and…

I believe that tutors should provide all-round mentorship to students and that this is one of the most important things that can come of tutoring; helping them to feel more confident in approaching problems they have in their everyday lives and to search for the answers to the questions that they have about the world around them. I am very patient…

I think that whilst having adaptive teaching methods is important, ensuring the student constantly feels supported and motivated by the tutor is vital. For me, in school no matter how much I was struggling (especially in maths) I found that having a great, understanding teacher, allowed me to not be afraid of asking ‘stupid’ questions. So for…

While it is important that students are achieving the marks they want, this is only half of the game. As a tutor, I want to be able to maximise their performance but also teach them the fundamental skills that come along with achieving success. Things like consistency, discipline and a growth mindset aren’t part of any NSW syllabus, but is apart…

Science Tutor Narara, NSW
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is learning to adapt. Each students brain is wired completely different, and in school, there’s not always an opportunity to work one on one. So it’s crucial for a tutor to observe their students strengths and weaknesses, and use that to progress their learning. I am super patient…

Science Tutor Booker Bay, NSW
I believe a truly effective tutor can accurately pinpoint the source of a student's struggle with a particular topic, and propose the correct solution. For example, trouble with foundational concepts often stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of the basics, therefore it is important to readdress the theory portion of the topic and provide…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is believe in them and their abilities. By encouraging students and believing in them students will gain confidence in themselves and develop resilience. Students will then be able to do anything they put their minds to as they have a solid mental foundation to fall back on. I am a patient and…

Shobana has been great with my son Mathew. She breaks down complex problems into easy manageable chunks of information that he can understand. She is very clear and concise in her explanations. He is a lot happier in Maths. Thank you

Inside TascottTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Yillen focused on Pythagoras' Theorem—using the formula to solve right-angled triangle problems and then applying these skills to real-life contexts, as well as revising perimeter and area with exam-style questions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 Chloe worked through algebraic expressions involving indices and fractions, along with dividing fractions, using step-by-step breakdowns for tricky examples.

For a younger learner in Year 6, Arielle tackled surface area and volume of composite shapes while also practicing calculation of perimeters during targeted test revision sessions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student arrived 12 minutes late and remained unfocused, needing "almost 80% of the answers" to stay engaged—his calculator was also missing, which stalled progress on Pi-based questions.

In a recent Year 11 session, forgetting both notes and workbook before an exam left him with no revision guide; distraction took over as he tried to recall details.

For a younger student, reluctance to submit written work for feedback during spelling practice meant missed opportunities for improvement ("to get more written material from the student if wanting feedback on it"). These moments slowed growth and left gaps unaddressed.

Recent Achievements

A Tascott tutor recently noticed a big shift in one Year 10 student who, after often waiting for answers to be explained, began tackling algebra problems on his own and even started asking for more challenging homework.

Another high schooler moved from feeling unsure about Pythagoras' Theorem to confidently working through foundation problems by the end of the session.

Among younger students, Chloe (Year 5) showed new initiative by double-checking her work independently rather than just following along—she now spots errors herself before the tutor points them out.

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 Kariong Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Point Clare Public School.
