As a tutor it is crucial to deeply understand the ambitions and goals of each student; their current level, and where they want to end up or what they want to achieve. This helps the tutor and student to create realistic but valuable goals, and underlying expectations throughout the experience. I think that as a tutor, I have strengths in truly…

I believe it is important to understand the student's weaknesses and strengths before starting to teach them. I have come across a common problem with students, which is that they often jump straight into trying to solve a problem without fully understanding the theory/basics first. Hence, I try to first help them understand the basics then go…

Besides helping them understand and learn a topic, the tutor should also help the student master the topic through mastery learning. Mastery learning is a way of designing units of work so that each set of tasks focuses on a particular learning objective and students must master a task to move onto the next one. The tutor should also help the…

Jess always shows up in time and doesn't dash out the door after 60 minutes but stays to finish if they are in the middle of doing something. She recommends things for my son to work on in between sessions and helps him prepare well for tests

Inside BlackwoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Ella worked on division strategies and solving time questions, focusing on interpreting word problems.

In Year 10, James tackled applications of differentiation and explored the fundamentals of circular motion using practical examples.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Hannah practiced drawing derivatives given the original function and analysed kinematics alongside circular motion and gravitation concepts from her physics curriculum.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student preparing for calculus and physics assessments had not completed enough revision between sessions, which meant he was less confident recalling methods under test conditions. As one tutor noted, "He hadn't done much revision between our last two sessions so needs to get plenty done to ensure he knows how to do everything before his two tests."

In Year 4, another struggled to remember conversions of time and money—such as minutes in an hour—when working independently at home. This led to confusion during homework tasks, especially when faced with worded questions requiring careful interpretation.

Recent Achievements

One Blackwood tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with exam revision now preparing independently and developing stronger strategies for interpreting equations—last session, he had already revised before the lesson and asked targeted questions about problem types.

In Year 8 science, a student who was previously passive during sessions recently started explaining her reasoning out loud as she tackled magnetic induction, which helped her clarify misunderstandings on the spot.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once kept answers in his head now eagerly walks through his problem-solving steps aloud and double-checks his division work before moving on.

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 Blackwood Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Blackwood High School.
