As stated above it is important for a tutor to be patient and understanding of others. This would allow for a tutor to be adaptive in their teaching, altering the method of teaching content in order to assist a student's understanding. It is also important for a tutor to provide a comfortable learning environment and supply consistent effort to…

Establishing good habits. I believe that habits are key to getting things done, especially tasks students may not want to do. By creating accountability and helping students develop healthy study habits, I find I can significantly enhance their learning experience.

Be there to challenge them but more importantly encourage them. Some of the most admirable teachers that I've had in school were the ones that understood me individually as a student, and did not just base their attitude towards me based on the mark I received. Empathy, patience, assertive, challenging, rewarding, and attentive. I believe that…

Patience is vital for students of all ages and skill-levels. The best thing a tutor can do for a student is be patient with them in order to accommodate their strengths alongside their weaknesses. Simply 'teaching' is not enough for a student given their tutor lacks patience for them. With many years as an instructor under my belt, my…

Most tutors forget that students never enjoy tutoring, so it is important to set interesting challenges to keep students motivated and also polishing their skills using unorthodox methods. Too much of the time tutors just read off the textbook and don't provide alternative methods or keep the students' focus on their work. I believe the students…

Build their confidence in their own abilities, and take the time to understand their needs as a learner and inspire them to enjoy learning rather than see it as a chore.

One of the most important things a tutor can do is to support the student providing them confidence to tackle the task in front of them.

Teaching that not knowing the answer to the question is ok and…

I think a tutor can most importantly help a student with the concepts that they are struggling with in school and also helping students learn concepts that their school hasn't gone through yet so that once they do, it'll be revision for them rather than learning it for the first time. This particularly helped me when I was doing my HSC.…

Inside Grays PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Alex focused on solving equations involving brackets and verifying solutions, along with practice in linear equations.

For Year 10, Priya worked through the transformation of trigonometric functions—exploring amplitude, range, and period changes—and tackled function sketching problems.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Marcus completed advanced calculus questions using past exam papers and refined his skills with differentiation of exponential functions and their applications.

Recent Challenges

A Year 7 student arrived without their workbook, which meant lesson time was spent organizing materials rather than practicing new concepts.

In Year 11 Physics, a tendency to rush through problems led to missed signs and number errors—"she may miss transfer a sign or a number that leads to mistakes," as noted—despite otherwise solid timing.

A Year 9 learner's revision focused only on familiar material before exams, limiting exposure to complex problem types.

Meanwhile, a senior student hesitated to interrupt explanations when confused, causing lingering uncertainty until the end of sessions and slowing real understanding.

Recent Achievements

A Grays Point tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student begin to independently review her maths answers, carefully checking numbers and signs—something she'd previously rushed through and missed mistakes on.

In another session, a high schooler who used to hesitate when confused now interrupts the lesson to ask questions right away, making sure he understands tricky calculus steps as they come up.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student surprised her tutor by confidently explaining how she solved a word problem aloud, showing new willingness to talk through her thinking without prompting.

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