A tutor must primarily be a supporter of their student. They must be there for the student in all aspects of learning and studying, which involves supporting them when they struggle with certain concepts, and also celebrating with them when they finally understand a certain concept or receive a good result. A tutor must strive to make the student…

Tutors can provide a one-on-one situation where they're able to realise the students weaknesses and target those areas. They can also be someone else for the students to ask questions where they may be too shy or unable to during a large classroom environment. Tutoring can also help reinforce content that students learnt that day or week. I am a…

Being able to find out the student's weak topics and creating personalised booklets filled with questions to assist the students rather than just throwing practice tests at them.

the most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to listen to them and let them explain why they may not understand certain topics when learning them in school, and therefore identify the areas in that student's understanding which may need the most work or how I can change certain explanations to help my student see from another…

Be encouraging - Student's won't understand something straight away and this can be a source of discouragement for them. The last thing they need is a tutor who refuses to acknowledge this.

Inside Lucas HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Madison completed revision on Critical Path Analysis and Bivariate Data, tackling a mix of past exam questions and personal weak spots.

In Year 11, James focused on mastering Normal Distribution through targeted practice problems and began exploring Network Concepts to consolidate understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Mia worked through positive and negative integers using real-world examples, then practiced applying BIDMAS rules to multi-step equations for accuracy.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student in Chemistry was hesitant to start homework or practice questions without being prompted, making it harder to pinpoint which concepts truly needed extra support—"she waits for me to suggest what to try."

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student struggled to sustain her ideas in English written responses, especially when reading too quickly and missing crucial details in short answer tasks.

In Mathematics, a Year 8 student repeatedly avoided writing out working for algebra problems, leading to sign errors that slowed progress and forced frequent backtracking during the session.

Recent Achievements

A Lucas Heights tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who, after struggling with previous exam mistakes, is now clearly recognising where she went wrong and confidently explaining how to fix those errors.

Another high schooler began asking for practice questions on new chemistry topics—something she hesitated to do before—and now tackles unfamiliar problems without waiting for prompts.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who was once reluctant to ask for help has started pinpointing the exact steps in maths that confuse him and openly requests clarification, then attempts similar problems independently right away.

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