Science Tutor Oakhurst, NSW
The most important things that a tutor must do for students is to always demonstrate patience and love towards them. It might take time for them to understand the lesson so you have to bear with them. My strengths as a tutor is that whenever I revisit lessons that I learned in the past, I am passionate to learn/relearn about them and I am also…

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…

Help them gain interest in what they're trying to study/learn. The problem with kids not wanting to learn isn't because the subject is hard, usually it's because they have no interest in the subject whatsoever. There's always a way to show someone the appeal of every single subject. It can be hard but it's very possible and many teachers and…

Teach them how to study. I feel that too many students think the only way to study is to read the text book or talk to the teacher. Although these are valid ways I feel that most students don't realise there are other ways to study. I personal prefer to watch videos explaining the subject, draw pictures and diagrams, and then make flash cards.…

Firstly identifying the student's various strengths and areas of improvement is very significant to give a general idea of which topics to focus/skills on the most whilst teaching them. Another key area that a tutor should investigate further is the student's most effective way of learning specific concepts e.g. visual, written, auditory etc. A …

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.

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…

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.
