Beyond simply teaching content, a tutor should help a student develop learning strategies, resilience, and independence. Creating a positive and trusting relationship is also…

A tutor needs to be able to make sessions engaging and enjoyable so their students will want to come back to each lesson. They need to also be able to be someone students can trust and feel comfortable with as they do spend a lot of time together. The hard work and determination I have to make sure my students can learn as much as possible means I…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their students in interact and engage with them, as this allows for the tutor to know the students and vice versa. This allows for an environment where students are willing to engage in class, as well as one where students do not feel afraid or embarrassed to ask questions or for help. My biggest…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is wholly believe in their capabilities. If a tutor/ teacher doesn't think that a student can succeed then it's pretty impossible to effectively help. Of course, this goes the other way as it is a tutors responsibility to ensure that the student believes in their own ability to succeed.…

Having empathy, because not all content comes too easy for students as it does for us, obviously.

Inside CamperdownTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Izzy practiced multiplying decimals by whole numbers and converting between fractions and decimals, also reviewing place value strategies.

In Year 10, Sarah focused on quadratic equations and algebraic skills, alongside poetry analysis of Wilfred Owen using sample English homework tasks.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Liam tackled differentiation techniques—working through turning points on advanced worksheets—and revised logarithms to strengthen calculus foundations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student's algebra work revealed "neatness of working out" was lacking, which led to difficulty tracking errors during multi-step equations.

In Year 11 biology, the need for clearer note-taking and updating pathways—especially stimulus-response diagrams—was flagged; when these notes were unclear, recalling details in assessments became harder.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student hesitated to write steps for subtraction problems, even though he could do them mentally ("he needs to be prompted to write down each step of the calculation"). This sometimes left mistakes hidden until review time, costing confidence when corrections were needed under test conditions.

Recent Achievements

One Camperdown tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to avoid asking questions now regularly requests clarification when she's unsure, especially with tricky chemistry titration steps.

A Year 10 student recently managed to sketch a graph independently involving both horizontal and vertical transitions without relying on the table of values—a skill he previously found intimidating.

In primary sessions, Ryan, who once hesitated with multi-step word problems, has started converting these into equations independently and completed most grade 2-level tasks on his own for the first time.

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 Newtown Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Newtown North Public School.
