I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is listen to what they are asking, and targeting their weak areas within the prospective subject. By doing so the tutor should aim to tailor each lesson accordingly. I think my strengths as a tutor would be my perseverance, clarity when explaining concepts, the ability to identify a…

Tutor Canley Vale, NSW
Any tutor, mentor, educator, or teacher all have something different to offer their students: but the goal is the same and it should be this: to help empower those who can't empower themselves in order to bring forth the best version of that individual into the world. It is through education, knowledge and the reciprocation of knowledge that…

The effective tutor aims way beyond just being a good tutor. It is essential tutors always point out the good achievements of students as much as they make note of their mistakes. Providing encouragement should go beyond the work completed in lessons and a tutor should often check in on how students are coping and provide positive encouragement…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to let them learn on their own. I think the best tutors know how to balance their student's learning pace by guiding them only when they have to. This helps the student learn on their own, and, as a result, learn more efficiently. My strength as a tutor is how I communicate concepts. I…

Local Reviews

Online learning my 9 year old son found challenging. He excels in class room learning and during the school closures his development learning in maths suffered. He has only had a couple of tutor sessions and already his teacher an I have noticed an improvement is his confidence to attempt math problems he finds challenging.
Judy, Fairfield

Inside FairfieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Jafar focused on writing persuasive texts and stories using prompts, while also building skills in calculating change and interpreting graphs.

For Year 9, Sienna practised solving simultaneous equations and explored applications of graphing inequalities, often working through examples step-by-step.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sam covered the sine rule and cosine rule in trigonometry, alongside finding exact values for common angles by applying formulae to real-world problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student repeatedly left differentiation rules half-memorised, leading to confusion when tackling derivatives of constants or linear functions; as a tutor noted, "he still needs practice with basic differentiation rules—he needs to be able to solve specific problems without my help."

In contrast, a Year 8 student's homework was sometimes incomplete or done incorrectly, requiring time in lessons to finish missed work rather than move forward.

Meanwhile, during persuasive writing in Year 6 English, one learner struggled to turn ideas into sentences without prompts and often responded with "I don't know" before attempting answers. Confidence and independence suffered in these moments.

Recent Achievements

A Fairfield tutoring session saw a Year 10 student, previously hesitant to attempt simultaneous equations without help, independently set up and solved worded problems using both elimination and substitution methods for the first time.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student who often avoided class participation is now actively asking relevant questions during lessons on trigonometric applications in three dimensions, showing genuine engagement with new content.

For a younger learner in primary school, after initially finding subtraction across zeroes confusing, he was able to confidently explain his solution process back to the tutor.

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