I believe creating a comfortable environment for the student to thrive in, and being able to adapt to different students learning styles are among the most important things a tutor can do. Alongside this, a tutor should be able to explain topics in an interesting, yet simple way, whilst simultaneously pushing the students knowledge. I am able to…

A great tutor is someone who is able to understand and sympathise with a student's situation but is also able to help them learn and achieve higher results. Therefore, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student for me is to be able to efficiently teach at a pace comfortable for a student. In terms of my teaching ability, I achieved a…

The most important thing a tutor can do for his/her student is to provide them assistance on topics outside their course as it not only reduces their stress level thus making it easier for students to focus but also at the same time students can relate to the teacher and thus aiding in their understanding. I am young and passionate this would be a…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is definitely taking initiative in everything they do. An outstanding tutor should be able take charge and seize the initiative; being a role model, for example, if a student has an exam coming up, a tutor should take the initiative to provide extra sessions; being able to put their best foot…

In the context of Science and Mathematics, the key aspect is HOW to think. Science requires imagination, innovation as well as an excellent recall and grasp of modern scientific understanding. Mathematics, being a tool - requires the students to be well-equipped with the basic mathematical tools. To directly answer this question; a tutor must…

The best thing a tutor can do for a student is affirm their self-worth as a learner and as an individual. It can be frustrating not being able to figure something out, but it becomes a lot less daunting without extreme expectations. I think my strengths as a tutor lie in my patience and my creativity. It's certainly not an easy task learning…

It is so important for tutors to adapt their method of teaching to the way the student learns. Every student not only has different needs and difficulties, but learns concepts differently. It is extremely important to regularly re-evaluate the student's objectives. Modifying your approach as a tutor to make the student feel comfortable and…

In my opinion, a tutor can act as the bridge between the student and the learning outcome. I feel the job of a tutor is to instill confidence in the child and inculcate a joy of learning the subject.

Make them enjoy a subject. as a teacher you can only do so much when it comes to teaching. you can give them all the work, call them, and pester them, but if they don't like it they will never excel in it.

Ultimately, I think a good tutor teaches the student skills that they can utilize in their general learning and subject specific study. A tutor should be in a position to be a mentor to the student and share their experience in relation to studying their subject. This can help the student overcome what can initially be a daunting task as it is a…

Patience and not comparing them with the others. I believe that each student has their own pace of learning. Lack of patience and comparing them with others will certainly hamper their learning process and will give them less confidence on their studies. Understanding the most effective way of learning for each student is also crucial. When I was…

Ensuring that they grasp the knowledge taught is the most crucial thing for me. If they are able to teach it to others, I feel that I have done my job as a tutor. I find it second nature to explain theories to others. I also find ways to make memorising easier. My favourite would be to say tht unsaturated fats are kinky, this is due to the kinks…

The most important thing a tutor can do is recognise their students ability level and mould their teaching to that level.

Understand the student, be patient with them and rather than becoming the student's boss, become their leader/role model and guide them towards their goals.

A tutor should be there to support the student through all academic struggles they are facing and help the student reach all their academic goals. The tutor should be familiar with their students learning style and preferences, then adjust their tutoring to suit.

I think the most important thing for a tutor to do for a student is make sure they not only know but actually understand the content, like having knowledge on a deeper meaning, so in a test if you face a nuanced question, you are able to solve it due to your in-depth understanding of the content. I was tutored in highschool which has allowed me to…

As a tutor, it is important that you pass on the right knowledge to the student. Make them think about things by themselves instead of giving them straight away. A tutor, shouldn't discourage students if they ask a dumb question, they should resolve all their queries with a good understanding. A tutor's job is to support a student and be curious…

Inside ChatswoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ava practised working with fractions and finding highest common factors and lowest common multiples using number puzzles.

In Year 8, Ethan focused on solving algebraic equations and graphing linear relationships by interpreting worded problems.

For Year 10, Chloe tackled Pythagoras' theorem along with calculating the perimeter and area of circles, applying these concepts to composite shapes through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Mathematics, "got lazy with working out," leading to skipped steps and careless errors—especially when handling equations. This meant extra time spent fixing mistakes instead of building confidence with new material.

For a Year 10 English essay, hesitation in forming a strong thesis and not expanding on points held back the clarity of arguments; as one tutor observed, "needs some assistance making sure points are strong and clear."

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student was forgetful about earlier concepts within the hour—struggling to recall how ordinals differ from ordering numbers during number tasks.

Recent Achievements

A Chatswood tutoring session saw a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with algebra now working through inverse operations independently and solving for x in multiple ways.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student who often rushed writing tasks is now pausing to brainstorm ideas first, leading to stronger story structure and clearer use of literary techniques.

For a younger learner in Year 5, their tutor noticed that after struggling with fractions, the student can now confidently plot them on number lines and complete related operations without prompting—finishing all perimeter and area questions quickly by the end of the lesson.

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 Picture Willoughby—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of Dolours Catholic Primary School.
