PDHPE Tutor Lindfield, NSW
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…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their students is to help them build their confidence whilst they learn new concepts. In doing so, I believe it will allow them to enjoy learning, as well as allowing them to understand and apply this concept in a shortened period of time. I believe my strengths as a tutor is that I'm adaptable. Every…

To me, the most essential role a tutor can fulfill is that of an enabler and empowerer. I believe a tutor's primary goal should be to provide students with a strong foundation of knowledge and a resilient problem-solving framework, not only to tackle academic challenges but also to navigate any obstacle life may present. An empowering tutor equips…

I think the greatest gift a tutor can provide to a student is support. School can often be an isolating and intimidating experience, and often students, despite being remarkably talented, feel afraid to take risks and go beyond what is expected of them. A tutor can also make the learning experience far more rewarding and enjoyable. Students feel…

There are many things that are extremely important when being a tutor.

A student will achieve the most results in an environment that's comfortable, enjoyable,…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do is be trusted by the student and beneficially help the student with lots of positive reinforcement rather than condescendingly negatively motivating them. Within this, it is important to create a supportive environment where the student can admit they still don't understand a topic, so that the…

More important than the marks or goals - in my opinion - is the development of confidence in the students ability to connect and understand the learning process of being unable to do something, setting goals, working, and ultimately learning the skill/content.

Helping them to develop their own learning style, or styles, to perform in a variety of circumstances is one of the most critical things a tutor can impart on a student.

Inside Killarney HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Daniel revised fractions, decimals, and percentages by converting between forms and using visual models.

For Year 8, Emily focused on solving linear equations and interpreting distance–time graphs, practising both algebraic manipulation and graph plotting.

In Year 10, Sam tackled trigonometry—specifically Pythagoras' theorem—and worked through real-world measurement problems involving speed, distance, and time calculations.

Recent Challenges

Homework completion was inconsistent across both primary and high school levels. For example, a Year 8 student "did not complete his homework again," which meant less opportunity to reinforce skills between lessons.

In Year 10, one student forgot much of the previously covered material before a test; the tutor noted this suggested "he hasn't been studying and revising the content."

Messy or incorrect layout appeared in Year 9 trigonometry—where failing to keep work tidy led to confusion when applying Pythagoras' theorem.

A senior student's over-reliance on mental calculation in conversion questions ("attempted to do it in his head") resulted in repeated small errors and missed marks.

Recent Achievements

One Killarney Heights tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to get stuck on financial maths now working through compound interest problems with less prompting, showing real independence during practice.

A Year 9 student, after several sessions of struggling to identify x- and y-intercepts, confidently found both and explained how they linked to gradients without relying on hints.

In primary years, one child who'd often mixed up times tables started applying them accurately in multi-step word problems—he finished all the questions in his workbook for the first time.

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