I think encouraging the student to think and ask questions, while trying my best to help solve the issues is important. I also find preparing lessons and checking homework essential. I graduated from Abbotsleigh with Atar 99.6 in 2022, so have a fresh and clear understanding of the syllabus and…

Facilitate the comprehension of the concepts studied, a tutor is not there to do the homework by himself but rather to show a better way to do it and to provide help in understanding the concepts needed to carry out a homework or while studying for an exam. Very closely tied to this is the building of the student, edifying the student if you…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to act as both an academic and emotional mentor to alleviate some of the stress that comes with studying. Naturally, it is expected for tutors to help students with breaking down the content into manageable concepts for the student to understand. However, aspects such as study…

No matter which subject the student is learning, s/he needs to know why s/he needs to learn it. Recently, Diane Tavenner, the innovator of American education encourages students to learn whatever they want by asking them to solve problem by themselves. In the field of applied linguistics, we call it 'boost input by producing output'. I believe…

Don’t make students memorize, make them understand it in their own way. A lot of the topics that are taught can actually be related to previous topics. If they can see that connection between each topic, then understanding tends to become easier. Also, we shouldn’t put too much pressure on them. That means don’t explain too quickly, but…

Build a personal relationship with them and understand what the student does and doesn't like. Having being tutored myself, I didn't respond as well with someone who could not meet me at my level than I did with a tutor who I felt I could relate to and trust. I am calm and caring, which I think is really important in tutoring, especially when…

I think it is important for the tutor to influence the student to be more enthusiastic towards his studies. It is easier to learn stuff with focus and the right attitude. The tutor has to try and make sessions interesting. Also, at the end of the day, the student must not be dependent on the tutor. As a tutor, you know you have succeeded when once…

Explain concepts well and set a good foundation for their learning. Additionally, the most important thing a tutor should do is encourage and teach them how to learn by themselves.

Inside Willoughby EastTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Eli focused on simplifying expressions using index laws and converting between roots and indices, then applied area and volume formulas to shapes like kites and pyramids.

Year 10 student Nick worked on analysing box-plot graphs, calculating means from frequency tables, and interpreting cumulative frequency, especially in the context of upcoming exams.

Meanwhile, Izzy in Year 6 revised addition, subtraction, division, and geometry through targeted revision sheets designed to strengthen foundational maths skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student repeatedly rushed through complex surface area and prism problems, which led to confusion over which sides to include—he lost track of which sides were which, creating problems in his final equation.

In a separate Year 9 session, formatting issues like missing units and untidy layout made it hard for the student to check answers or review work later.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 English student's messy handwriting slowed down reading back his essay drafts and disrupted the flow of his argument development. These habits left them second-guessing their results during revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

One Willoughby East tutor noticed Nick, a Year 11 student, moving from uncertainty to confidently explaining the functions of cumulative frequency tables and successfully drawing pareto charts on his own.

In a recent session, Nikolai in Year 10, who used to rush through measurement problems and make errors, now deliberately paces himself and completes complex surface area questions with improved accuracy.

Meanwhile, Izzy in primary school has started tackling time and clock questions more independently; after previously hesitating, she now attempts answers without waiting for reassurance and completes conversions between measurements with far less prompting than before.

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 Castlecrag Community Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Thomas' Catholic Primary School.
