The most important thing for a tutor to be able to do is to help the student develop their own abilities, and give them study habits and practices in class that will help the student to deepen their understanding of the underlying principles being taught. A tutor must also be able to communicate with the student and explain problems in a way that…

Science Tutor Woonona, NSW
I think a tutor should provide a fun, engaging and different approach to studying. A tutor should ask questions in a way a teacher hasn't got the time to do. They should always ask what the student wants and implement strategies as to how to attain these goals. But, perhaps at the forefront of responsibility, a tutor should always make sure the…

Make them believe in themselves is the first thing that pops into my mind. To get a student who once thought a subject was boring or complicated into something at least "okay" in which they can see their potential in if they put in the work. That, to me, is the most important thing. The greatest strength my students have commented on is my ability…

To give them confidence and make them feel good about themselves.

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be patient and slowly help the student understand. If they are not quite getting the content, a tutor should also be able to teach it with a different approach, and eventually find a method that is intuitive for the student. As a tutor, some of my strengths are patience,…

Tristesse, Bulli

Inside BulliTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Josh worked on solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formula and also tackled word problems involving quadratics.

For Year 9, Sarah practised sketching graphs and revisited algebraic factorisation strategies, including product and sum methods.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Daniel focused on linear equations and strengthened his understanding of rates and ratios through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student in Bulli struggled with attention to detail when using pronumerals in algebra—assuming the order from previous questions led to errors, as one tutor observed: "He kept mixing up x and y, which changed his answer."

In Year 11, a student's exam performance was affected by feeling overwhelmed under pressure, resulting in incomplete solutions during timed tasks.

For a Year 7 learner, over-reliance on spell-check instead of practicing spelling meant written work improved slowly.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student avoided showing working for maths problems, believing answers alone were sufficient; this made it difficult to spot where misunderstandings occurred.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Bulli noticed that a Year 9 student, who previously struggled with parabolas, is now confidently describing the shapes of graphs and can quickly identify their equations without hesitation.

In another high school session, Erin was able to use both elimination and substitution methods effectively for solving equations—last term she would get stuck on which approach to try first, but this time she switched between them smoothly.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who once hesitated to use finger counting for maths problems now does so openly after some encouragement, allowing him to tackle larger addition questions with far less frustration 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 Thirroul Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Joseph's Catholic Primary School.
