Support the student in their learning and help to not only understand their current learning content but also give them the skills to learn independently in the future. I believe I have a few strengths as a tutor that help me. The first of these strengths is my ability to teach a topic in numerous ways. Another is being able to communicate and…

1. Remaining patient with the student no matter what so as to encourage them to keep working on a problem rather than feel discouraged by a minor setback. This should be achieved by positive talk and reinforcing the importance of clarifying concepts to the student. 2. Praising new achievements of the student to ensure that they feel encouraged to…

A tutor shouldn’t just repeat what a students been taught by their teacher. I believe it’s important a tutor listens to their student and understands the areas they struggle in and need help with, and to further understand how that student learns as everyone learns in different ways. A tutor that understands their student will be capable of…

In my experience tutoring students, as well as being a student myself, I believe a person needs to do four main things in order to be a good tutor; they need to be able to assess what their students are lacking, know what you can do to improve on their skills, communicate well, and boost the overall confidence of the student and the confidence…

Make learning enjoyable. the last thing I want as a tutor is a student dreading doing their work. If I can push them to find satisfaction and fun out of learning then I feel I have succeeded.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to support and encourage them or they will be scared to ask questions and "try hard". Raising a student's confidence and self esteem is important and allows them to gain enthusiasm for the subject. Then we will see improvements in understanding and results gradually. The tutor's job is to be…

Make their students feel comfortable (e.g; polite conversation), this thus allows the student to voice their concerns and allows the tutor to adjust what they are teaching and how they are doing so. Don’t rush the process and ensure the student is confident in areas of concern before brushing into another concept. I just recently graduated…

A tutor must be able to gain the trust of the students to allow them to feel comfortable enough for the learning to commence. An intimidating environment is an ineffective one for teaching.

Inside ClevelandTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Cailyn revised multiplication and division strategies and began exploring fractions using practical examples.

For Year 9, Daniel tackled linear equations involving negative numbers and fractions, then practised plotting points on a Cartesian plane and calculating perimeters.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Nicholas worked through trigonometry problems focusing on sine, cosine, and tangent ratios for right-angled triangles, using step-by-step calculations to find unknown sides or angles.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 mathematics, a reluctance to show full working on paper led to confusion in algebra and inverse cosine problems; as one tutor noted, "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors."

For a Year 8 student tackling fractions and unit conversions, calculator formatting issues and hesitancy to use the calculator created barriers when converting units like cm to km.

Meanwhile, in Year 3 arithmetic sessions, forgetting multiplication facts slowed progress—she would often guess answers rather than recall methods. The result: time lost re-explaining concepts or tracking down small but critical mistakes.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Cleveland noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who, after weeks of hesitation, now proactively asks for tougher algebra questions and refers back to her notes independently when she gets stuck.

In one recent high school session, another student who previously doubted her abilities tackled HSC-level network concepts confidently and even volunteered to explain her approach out loud—something she'd avoided before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to give up on tricky subtraction problems now persists until she finds the answer and eagerly tries new strategies without waiting for help.

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