I think that providing a safe and encouraging space for a student is the most important thing for a tutor to do, as well as ignite some passion in them to succeed and be a support system. I believe that I am very approachable and friendly, so that students would be comfortable with asking for help. I also feel as though I can share some of my…

One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide them with support for their weakest strengths. I believe that it is crucial that tutors are able to cater to the student's needs. As a tutor, I am able to work well with students. I have a natural skill of presenting content in ways that cater to the student's style of…

The most important thing for a tutor to do is build confidence in students. The students that approach tutors are usually ones that are struggling to cope with school and activities, leading to them falling behind on their academics. This can seriously lower their confidence and make them question their abilities. As a tutor, it should be their…

To just listen. As counterintuitive as it sounds, listening is more important than teaching. As a tutor one must fully grasp what the student wants and needs and how they best learn. To be able to pick up on non verbal cues if the student is too shy or uncomfortable to ask for help. Everyone learns best in a different way, so a tutor needs to be…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do are to foster confidence, promote understanding, and encourage independence.

A good tutor helps students identify their…

What I enjoy most is seeing that moment when something finally "clicks" for a student, especially when they’ve been struggling with a topic. It’s rewarding to know I’m making a real impact in their learning journey. I care about each student’s progress and want to see them gain confidence not just in their subjects, but in how they…

I believe that as much as it is important to help the child improve and gain confidence, it is also important to build and maintain a tutor-student relationship. This enables students who don't tend to be open in class and speak up when they have questions to openly do so during tutoring sessions. This is something I have been able to achieve with…

I think a tutor has a lot of power in empowering a student and making them love learning and love the subject. If a tutor can reorient a student's perspective of a certain topic and make the student learn it, it enables the student to engage more with the subject and hopefully increases their passion for learning and education in general which I…

My daughter enjoyed working with Jo - not to the extent of enjoying the actual maths content, but she did look forward to Jo coming every week! She says Jo was patient and kind and explained things in a way she could understand.

Inside Palm BeachTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Bella focused on refining a creative narrative based on a novel she's read and practised English skills like identifying homonyms and using onomatopoeia through targeted worksheets.

In Year 9, Willow concentrated on mastering operations with fractions—including simplifying, adding, subtracting, and converting them to mixed numbers—alongside revisiting order of operations for algebraic expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Jeremy dedicated his session to reviewing Pythagoras' theorem problems and measurement concepts (perimeter, area, volume) as preparation for an upcoming end-of-semester exam.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, a student often skimmed instructions and misread multi-step questions, especially in trigonometry and algebra—he found it hard to understand what the question was asking of him, noted one tutor.

During a senior chemistry lesson, another student forgot her notes at home and couldn't attempt practice problems on organic reactions, highlighting organization gaps.

In Year 7 English, a keen learner hesitated to share written work for feedback; she left spelling errors uncorrected in PowerPoint slides, which made final drafts harder to polish.

These patterns led to confusion during tests and missed opportunities for targeted improvement.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Palm Beach noticed Jeremy, a high school student, now tackles algebraic equations and geometry problems with far more independence—he used to hesitate or wait for prompts but recently worked through practice exam questions almost entirely on his own.

Willow, also in high school, has started identifying her mistakes when working with fractions and is correcting them without being asked, which marks a real shift from her earlier reliance on reminders.

Meanwhile, Bella in Year 6 took the initiative to ask for extra homework and submitted a challenging spelling task she had previously avoided.

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 Palm Beach Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Elanora State School.
