Exam periods, life and post-school options can all be stressful for students and it is vital that a tutor can mentor students throughout this through stress mechanisms. This, coupled with effective teaching methods and provision…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to build their confidence in a subject and chip away at some students’ preconceived notion that they are bad at or just don’t get a subject. Additionally, tutors must also understand and accommodate each students' specific needs and impart knowledge on skills that go…

Most importantly a tutor should understand the goals and needs of each student individually - what they find difficult and why they struggle with certain concepts. Subsequently, tutors should teach students the concepts and ensure they understand how to solve problems, this provides lifelong problem solving skills rather than memorised methods to…

The most important thing in tutoring is patience...lots of patience. It's often the case that repeating a concept - however many times, and sometimes in different ways - helps the student really come to grips with it. I think the mark of a good teacher is how much repetition they can tolerate in the course of their instruction. My main strength is…

The most important things a tutor can do is to listen to their student. Whether they need to adjust their techniques, or go more slowly, etc. The tutor should always be attendant to their student's needs and keep track of their progress. Positive reinforcement is also very important, as uplifting and encouraging your student is more beneficial…

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.
