Be empathetic... Often students are going through a lot more than just school and/or sport, and sometimes tutors do not realise this when they're loading them with a lot of information. By being empathetic and patient that tutor is able to consider that needs of the student and alter sessions accordingly to ensure the greatest bang for the buck. I…

I think the tutor's presence, being there for the student to offer help is an important thing a tutor can do for a student. Sometimes parents can get busy and school can be stressful.

Kids' attention span are short and I think the most important thing a tutor can do for the tutees/students is to be compassionate. Compassion will cover patience and understanding the reason why we are teaching. Kids will be kids and they can get naughty and noisy at times.

Inside KingswoodTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Isabella focused on trigonometric graphs and logarithmic laws to prepare for an upcoming exam.

For Year 12, revision with Adrian centred around integration techniques and summation using past HSC trial papers.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex worked through index laws—including subtraction, addition, and multiplication rules—and began exploring trigonometric concepts in preparation for a mock yearly exam.

Recent Challenges

In Year 2 mathematics, one student still counted on fingers and struggled with adding numbers above five—"he can't add anything above 5 without struggling"—showing a need for more foundational fluency practice.

A Year 8 student avoided writing out full algebraic working, relying instead on memorised answers; this made it harder to identify where mistakes occurred and limited her confidence during tests.

In Year 12 Mathematics, a lack of revision on earlier topics such as integration and inequalities meant the student couldn't recall key methods under exam pressure, despite understanding them in lessons. This led to confusion when facing unfamiliar or multi-step problems.

Recent Achievements

One Kingswood tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to ask for help now regularly checks their graphing steps out loud, showing real initiative in tackling functions.

In Year 7, a student who once rushed through English comprehension tasks has started pausing to reread tricky questions and underline key words before answering, which led to fewer careless mistakes last session.

Meanwhile, a primary student who used to get distracted during maths is now quick to admit when he's confused and eagerly tries new strategies with pipe cleaners—he recently counted up his five times tables without any 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 Penrith City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Joseph's Primary School.
