Keep giving students motivation to learn and advise them what they could do in the future with the knowledge they are learning at the moment. From my experience, most students did not find joy in learning subjects such as mathematics as they could not foresee the relevance with what they would like to be doing in the future. It is important that a…

The most important things a tutor can do for students is firstly being honest with them. Telling them if they didn't understand completely an important concept and congratulating them if they do. Being reliable and easy to reach is also essential for growth of the students. Obviously not judging them on their difficulties is vital to their…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is not just provide the student with the knowledge that they need for a course or for a test but that they can learn along the way the methods which help them learn best so they can apply those methods to future challenges. In other words, how they figure out one problem or completing one task…

I consider that the most important things that a tutor can do for a student are to make them comfortable with maths and to listen to them. They can ask any questions, I would be very happy to answer any of them and to help them as much I am able to. I think that first of all, I can transmit easely my knowledge because I have a background in maths.…

I think is a new way of understanding and treating mathematics. The most important reason that students can’t learn mathematics well is because they don’t understand it. With detailed explanations and ways of doing questions, students can learn easily and efficiently. As an international student, I knew both ways of learning mathematics and…

Inside MascotTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ava focused on double-digit addition and understanding place value using visual aids.

Year 8 student Andre worked through congruent triangle postulates for an upcoming maths assessment, as well as deepening his analysis of major themes in the novel 'The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas'.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ethan revised basic trigonometric identities and practiced entering angles on his calculator while also learning how to solve for unknown sides in triangles.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student repeatedly leaned on their calculator for basic multiplication and fractions, slowing progress in lessons; as noted, "he was more reliant on the calculator," making it harder to build number fluency.

In Year 10 Maths, a lack of revision meant algebra strategies taught just weeks earlier were forgotten during problem-solving—leading to hesitancy and skipped questions.

One Year 4 learner lost focus quickly when asked to count backwards by twos or fives, often leaving work incomplete.

During Year 11 English analysis tasks, superficial reading of set texts led to uncertainty unpacking key passages under time pressure.

Recent Achievements

A Mascot tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who, after struggling with algebraic manipulation, now attempts problems without a calculator and actively revises notes between sessions.

In another high school lesson, a student who used to avoid challenging questions has started requesting tougher problems and persevering through them independently, especially in data concepts and probability.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once hesitated during addition tasks is now confidently completing multi-digit sums on her own and consistently keeps neat notes—she even remembers to include units at the end of her answers.

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 Mascot Library (incl. the George Hanna Memorial Museum)—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mascot Public School.
