The two most significant things a tutor can do for a student are to establish a solid, encouraging rapport and modify their method of instruction to suit the student's particular requirements. It is essential to establish a secure space where children may voice their concerns and ask questions. Additionally, assisting students in acquiring…

I believe important aspects of tutoring involve making sure that the students understand the content that they are learning by making it engaging and easy to understand. Tutoring is not only about making sure that the student understands, it's also about prioritising their mental health and ensuring that the students learn good study habits for…

My strengths are: -teaching experience - Communication skills - Motivation of students to do well - Subject content knowledge - ability to…

The most important things a tutor can do include adapting to the student's learning and building their confidence. I believe my job isn't just to teach them the concept but encourage them that through practice, they will master them. that means encouraging their progress, celebrating small achievements and helping see mistakes as a part of…

Software Dev Tutor Rooty Hill, NSW
Encourage them and help them to find enjoyment in the subject. I think a genuine relationship is important in a teaching environment. From my limited experience of helping teach my friends maths, I'd say the main ones are patience and adaptability (if they struggle to understand one way of me explaining it, I'll quickly look for a new angle of…

Inside Mount VernonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Jonathon practised reading tables and graphs, including picture graphs and two-way tables, then worked on using conjunctions in sentences.

In Year 9, Vangie focused on algebraic techniques such as rearranging equations to make a chosen variable the subject and applied these skills to questions involving trapezium dimensions.

For Year 11, Amaan tackled polynomials and learned to apply the quadratic formula through targeted examples from his current schoolwork.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to show working consistently in algebra and trigonometry, as a tutor observed: "He needs to be disciplined when showing working for a question," which sometimes meant marks were lost even when answers were correct.

In Year 11 English, slow linking of ideas led to time management issues during short-answer analysis.

For a younger student (Year 4), handwriting remained difficult—writing on regular lines was much messier than on practice sheets, making it hard to read his work.

During senior maths revision, one Year 10 student relied heavily on looking back through notes rather than recalling processes independently, slowing progress.

Recent Achievements

One Mount Vernon tutor noticed a Year 11 student who used to rush through algebra tests now taking time to check his work, spotting and fixing minor mistakes without prompting.

In Year 10, another student initially struggled with using the sine and cosine rules for triangles but last week solved multi-step problems independently, even explaining why each step made sense.

Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 4 who previously hesitated to read aloud is now volunteering to summarise stories after reading them, showing clear progress in both fluency and willingness to engage.

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 Green Valley Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Irfan College.
