English Tutor Sutherland, NSW
I think the most important thing is listening to the student to focus on exactly what they need help with and give them techniques they can take home so they can continue to understand better. I think my greatest strength is figuring out ways to successfully explain to the person im tutoring in a way them helps them understand…

English Tutor Sans Souci, NSW
What I consider to be the most important things a tutor can do for a student include: Being able to communicate to the student in a way which their brain can understand the content best such as visually for example. Secondly being patient is a key factor because you dont want the student to be stressed or anxious but want them to be calm and…

English Tutor Sandringham, NSW
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. Having my students be excited to come to tutoring, and seeing them light up telling me about the marks they’ve achieved and their improvement, is what drives me. Thus, the most…

English Tutor Jannali, NSW
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. Constantly encouraing the student will help them realise it will only be a matter of time until they nail a concept. Be a friend - The idea of a tutor is to…

English Tutor Jannali, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do is teach the concept not just the problem. If tutors can help students to understand the concept and apply it every time it becomes like second nature. I'm patient so I'm always happy to spend time on a specific problem or concept that may need extra attention. I'm also a good communicator so I can help…

English Tutor Oyster Bay, NSW
I believe the most important thing for a tutor to do for a student, is simply be patient and understanding. The reason the student has come to you as a tutor, is because they are struggling with a given subject, so being able to understand what the student is having trouble with is crucial, as well as being patient and nurturing if they do not…

English Tutor Oyster Bay, NSW
Build a relationship with them. I believe that the learning will be far more effective for the student if there is a strong relationship between myself and the student. This way, I will be able to differentiate my teaching methods to best suits the learning needs of the student. I am extremely patient. I am very calm and believe myself to be very…

To make them feel safe and comfortable, build up their confidence to apply their knowledge to problems. It is imperative that students feel comfortable to both reach out and develop security within their own abilities to achieve their academic goals. Communication, patience and resilience.

Inside MaianbarTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 Thomas explored addition, subtraction, telling time, identifying shapes, and skip counting to check his foundational maths skills.

For Year 8 Jess, work focused on mastering angle identities—such as co-interior, alternate, corresponding—and recognising complementary and supplementary angles using clear diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 10 Olivia practised applying Pythagoras' Theorem in worded problems and tackled area questions involving circles with given radius or diameter.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 mathematics, one student often rushed to answers without showing working; as a tutor noted, "he skipped steps in algebra, which hid sign errors." This led to time lost correcting avoidable mistakes instead of building deeper understanding.

For a Year 12 humanities subject, difficulty adapting writing style and collecting sources during research tasks meant extra hours spent retracing material later.

Meanwhile, in Year 6, messy handwriting ("the number 8 can look like a 6") caused confusion when reviewing calculations—sometimes the right answer was marked wrong due to legibility issues.

These process habits shaped their day-to-day learning experiences.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Maianbar noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated with probability now confidently tackles more advanced questions, even surprising himself during revision when he handled trickier problems with ease.

Another high schooler, after struggling to link historical sources to essay prompts, recently managed to connect rubric points independently and different perspectives while working through a practice paper.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who once waited for direction now announces answers out loud and insists on "working it out in her head" before checking—she finished all the addition questions without any prompting this week.

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 Bundeena Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Lilli Pilli Public School.
