The most important thing is trust that both tutor and student should have on each other. An ease of asking questions and making mistakes is another very important thing. Its okay to make mistakes but if your student is afraid of you , they would never ask questions and will be afraid to make mistakes so the tutor will never be able to…

In my opinion, being a person that students are comfortable with to reach out for help is one of the most important things. A tutor should be there to assist them, not add stress or pressure to them. I also think it is important for tutors to motivate the students to learn, instead of just giving answers, and in motivating them, tutors should be…

The aim of accepting a tutorial for a student is to achieve higher academic result. Yet for a tutor, it is not to merely give answers straight the way. In my point of view, tutoring is receiving inquiries and giving tutors' knowledge. A tutor should acquire abilities to help students first understanding the basic ideas buried in deep, and grow…

As mentioned above, to make a student feel comfortable is really important as it makes them more confident with the material not only in that subject but universally. They become more confident as a learner and will find it easier to develop the tools to solve problems themselves more independently of others. Additionally, as a tutor, I feel like…

The most important things I can do for a student, is to put myself in their shoes when teaching. Often some students take longer to understand, comprehend or apply the knowledge taught. It' so important to go at their pace, whilst challenging them as well, because there's nothing we can't achieve if we set our minds to it. It' important to simply…

Inside ForestvilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Tom explored time calculations and worked through problems on perimeter and area.

In Year 10, Lily revised key features of polynomials for an upcoming test and practiced solving trigonometric equations.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ben focused on sketching graphs using first and second derivatives, identifying turning points and inflection points with the help of sign diagrams.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student's chemistry report was flagged for unclear structure and weak communication of key points—layout and logical flow need improvement, as the tutor noted, "structure still not clearly and main point not communicated logically."

In Year 10, a student didn't complete assigned fractions problems over the holidays; this meant new material on polynomials felt rushed, with less time for feedback.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student's messy worksheets made it hard to track formulas during graphing tasks.

In primary years, one child hesitated to draw diagrams in worded maths questions, making it harder to connect concepts when problem-solving under test conditions.

Recent Achievements

One Forestville tutor noted that a Year 11 student who previously struggled with test-style problem solving has begun pinpointing her own weaknesses and now proactively works through similar questions until she's satisfied—something she hadn't done before.

In a recent high school maths session, another student independently created a "cheat sheet" for an upcoming trigonometry test and remembered to use it during practice, showing more self-directed study habits than in earlier lessons.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who often missed parts of multi-step problems now double-checks her work unprompted and corrects mistakes on her own before moving on.

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