The most important thing a tutor should do for a student is make them feel good about themselves. If the student develops a mentality where they feel as if they will never be able to learn something, they wont. It will be my job as a tutor to encourage them to believe in their own capabilities and further expand on this with different teaching…

First and foremost, a tutor should be able to connect with students on a personal level. The tutor should facilitate students to seek knowledge for themselves. The tutor should establish new ways to help students learn how to do work independently. I possess excellent organizational and communication skills. I also have good subject knowledge and…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to personalise the learning to suit the student's strengths, to work on their weaknesses but highlight strong points to instil confidence. A tutor must treat the student as an individual and listen carefully rather than just applying the same format for each student. Through a combination…

With a good understanding of the topic and the skills to explain its contents to the student, the tutor ensures that the…

Help him get to ease with the course, make it not feel like a burden but something the pupil has control over, allow him to see his strengths and focus on the knowledge he is gaining from it, and how he can benefit from it. Algebra is useful in so many fields but kids don't understand that thus don't pay attention, and learn it just to forget…

I consider balance the most important thing a tutor can do for their student.

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to become their friend. Children are sometimes uncomfortable with teachers and are unable to fully explain where they struggle. However, if we are able to get them to open up we would be able to better assist them in improving their grades. A student who is comfortable in the…

A tutor is responsible for easing a child's worry and to make sure that they can do whatever possible to help their student become less anxious and more confident in their work. As a tutor, I believe my empathy and sympathy allows me to form a connection with my students as they do not feel shy to tell my the points they struggle with. This asset…

Inside Werrington DownsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student focused on basic maths skills, including telling the time and revising the 5 times table.

In Year 8, Alysha practiced multiplication and addressed class worksheet questions about rise over run and calculating gradients, reviewing these using her homework for extra reinforcement.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student worked through algebraic manipulation techniques and explored probability concepts by tackling related school exercises.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student repeatedly arrived at lessons without completing assigned algebra homework, which made it difficult to identify and target misunderstandings—"I gave him homework from the last lesson but he hasn't done them."

In Year 11 Physics, another student did not finish the module booklet before exams, missing key topics like the photoelectric effect.

Meanwhile, a primary student in Years 3–4 avoided memorizing times tables, instead drawing groups for every multiplication or division task; this slowed problem-solving and blocked progress in more complex operations.

Missed revision and unfinished tasks meant that feedback could not be put into action immediately.

Recent Achievements

One Werrington Downs tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to hesitate when stuck on division problems—now, after working through examples and seeing her errors, she asks for help as soon as she's unsure and applies the feedback right away.

Another high schooler recently tackled harder questions from past exam papers independently, only needing support on the toughest one and fixing his mistakes after two corrections.

Meanwhile, a younger student who previously guessed at word spellings now takes time to check meanings in the dictionary before reading aloud new words like "fairy rings" and "decaying."

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