The most important things a tutor can do is be open with the students, this makes sure the kids feel seen and heard because otherwise children may tend to not ask their questions. It’s also important for a tutor to do background research on their topics to minimise confusion within the lessons As a tutor my strengths are being able to bond with…

A tutor's role is to assist the student with any troubles they have with their study. We are here to support them and provide them with a deeper understanding of the subject they're learning. Having sat the HSC and completed high school, I know what it feels like to struggle with concepts we must study to pass the subject. I offer experience that…

A tutor should give honest time and effort to share the knowledge with his students.A tutor should also learn how to teach studnets based in their strengths and weaknesses. Not everyone learns by reading academic books so it is best to understand a child's psychology and be focused to actually train him/her to be confident in answering any…

The most important thing would be to make the lessons engaging and fun so the student doesn't feel forced to be there and is able to enjoy working on the subject and gain pleasure out of it. As a student I found that I did worse in subjects that weren't as engaging so I wanna make sure that my students are engages I would say my biggest strength…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is build trust and confidence. A student should feel comfortable asking questions without fear of being judged. Beyond improving grades, a tutor should help students develop study habits, problem-solving skills, and self-belief so they can succeed on their own too. My main strengths are patience…

Not regurgitate the same information given on google or at schools regarding their difficult topics, but instead to approach the student and the lesson with the ambition to simplify complexities in your own intuitive way. This is with respect to the student's preferential medium for learning, which you as a tutor need to manipulate effectively to…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to hear and understand their concerns in the chosen subject. Working closely with students requires a tutor to understand and adhere to the specific details in which the student is struggling. Doing this in turn, helps a student holistically gain a better understanding. My strengths are…

Inside WedderburnTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Oliver focused on algebra by reviewing his recent exam and tackling equations homework, particularly working through challenges with negative signs.

For Year 10, Ethan practiced solving linear equations using targeted worksheets and also completed classwork on basic algebra to reinforce foundational skills.

Meanwhile, Year 4 student Lilian learned about decimals—including place value—and completed maths homework sheets that introduced her to these new number concepts in practical contexts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student preparing for a trigonometry test often forgot to bring essential materials, like the calculator and workbook, which meant time was lost sourcing tools instead of practicing exam-style questions.

In Year 8 algebra, one student avoided showing working—"he tried to do steps mentally," as noted by the tutor—which led to missed sign errors in simplifying expressions.

For a Year 5 session on decimals and multiplication, distraction made it hard to finish longer problems without guidance.

Missed lessons and incomplete homework were also observed at both primary and senior levels, sometimes leaving gaps before new content was introduced.

Recent Achievements

One Wedderburn tutor recently saw a Year 11 student who, after struggling with simultaneous equations in the past, solved them independently for the first time. Another high schooler who'd previously needed lots of support with SOHCAHTOA now tackles those problems without any help and even brought her own challenging questions to discuss this week.

In a primary session, a younger student who often skipped homework surprised the tutor by not only completing all assigned tasks but also correctly flagging which algebra questions she found tricky so they could work through them together.

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 Campbelltown City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Helens Park Public School.
