My son wasn't very enthusiastic about the idea of maths lessons. He really enjoyed his first maths lesson with Charlie and since then looks forward to his lessons.

Stephen
Legal Studies Tutor Avoca Beach, NSW
Personalise the experience. It is vital to get t know the student, their concerns, their best learning style. The pace and content of the sessions needs to be adapted to the student's ability to achieve confidence and competence. Deep experience and thorough up to date knowledge, empathy (I am a parent to Yr 11 & 12 boys, as well as a tutor),…

Willow
Legal Studies Tutor Ettalong Beach, NSW
I think the most important thing is taking the pressure off being “perfectâ€. There is no such thing as perfection and everyone reaches success differently. What works for one person may not work for another and in standardised exams, this often gets misconstrued, adding to the weight of being the perfect student. My patience and positive…

Carol
Legal Studies Tutor Ettalong Beach, NSW
I believe a truly effective tutor can accurately pinpoint the source of a student's struggle with a particular topic, and propose the correct solution. For example, trouble with foundational concepts often stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of the basics, therefore it is important to readdress the theory portion of the topic and provide…

Sam
Legal Studies Tutor Booker Bay, NSW
Provide support both academically and mentally. This can be done through practicing a topic of a subject, and also helping schedule their weeks, so they know they will still have social/leisure time, and maximize their grades and themselves. I am incredibly confident and happy to also learn new things. For example, if a student comes to me and…

Legal Studies Tutor Woy Woy Bay, NSW
A tutors responsibility isn't to provide answers, but to guide students to find their way of learning and to provide alternative approaches when tackling problem scenarios or questions. To be a successful tutor is to develop students mindsets and enable them to eventually trust in their instinct and decide for themselves the best way to go about a…

Samantha
Legal Studies Tutor East Gosford, NSW
I think the most important thing is approaching learning with compassion and patience. It is really important to consider that not everyone learns best with the same teaching style, and can process information at different paces. I think it's important to understand each person's learning style; if they are not understanding what you are saying,…

Inside BlackwallTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 6 student Yillen focused on calculating area and volume of shapes, including linking these measurements to earlier work with perimeter and Pythagoras' theorem.
In Year 9, Alex practised rearranging formulas to change the subject and substituted values into equations, using algebraic methods in homework applications.
Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sophie tackled trigonometry problems involving finding unknown angles and sides in right-angled triangles, applying both the Pythagorean theorem and SOHCAHTOA across different question types.
Recent Challenges
A Year 10 student struggled with motivation and punctuality, often logging in late or appearing distracted during online maths lessons—one session began 12 minutes late, and "I had to almost give him 80% of the answers this lesson to try to keep him engaged."
In a recent senior tutorial, time management was a concern; after just a few questions, most of the hour had passed.
Meanwhile, a Year 8 student sometimes left calculators at home or forgot key materials for revision, which slowed progress on algebra tasks. When work is missing or focus drifts, confusion can linger into future sessions.
Recent Achievements
One Blackwall tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who started asking for extra homework and openly requested help on challenging school assignments—something he was previously hesitant to do.
In Year 9, another student who struggled at first with Pythagoras' Theorem managed to walk away from the session able to explain the key steps without support, after initially having very limited knowledge of the topic.
Meanwhile, in primary years, one student moved from confusion to confidently answering maths questions unaided by the end of their lesson and even began tackling new problems before explained.

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 Umina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Woy Woy South Public School.
