Be kind and patient, and be able to adjust learning plans for the student. I am that I am a compassionate person who believes in the potential of all people.

Being a past past studnet at many various tutoring places, the most important quality for a tutor is to able to incur a friendly yet working relationship with their students. This will help students to be comfortable enough to ask any questions about concepts they do not understand. As I have just finished high school last year, I believe I will…

Modern History Tutor Narara, NSW
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is learning to adapt. Each students brain is wired completely different, and in school, there’s not always an opportunity to work one on one. So it’s crucial for a tutor to observe their students strengths and weaknesses, and use that to progress their learning. I am super patient…

Modern History Tutor Lisarow, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to give them the ability to take what they learn in the classroom outside of school. By teaching students the skills as well as the content, students will have the freedom to further pursue their interests. A passion for the subject material, the patience and communication skills necessary…

Modern History Tutor Daleys Point, NSW
Provide support both academically and mentally. This can be done through practicing a topic of a subject, and also helping schedule their weeks, so they know they will still have social/leisure time, and maximize their grades and themselves. I am incredibly confident and happy to also learn new things. For example, if a student comes to me and…

I think the most important thing is taking the pressure off being “perfectâ€. There is no such thing as perfection and everyone reaches success differently. What works for one person may not work for another and in standardised exams, this often gets misconstrued, adding to the weight of being the perfect student. My patience and positive…

Inside Point ClareTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Yillen worked on applying Pythagoras' Theorem to both right-angled and isosceles triangles, then practiced using graphs to find coordinates for constructing triangles.

For Year 9, Chloe focused on solving trigonometry problems with SOHCAHTOA to find side lengths and unknown angles, and also revised equations for speed, distance, and time in preparation for her test.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Rory concentrated on multiplying fractions by integers and converting between improper fractions, mixed numbers, and decimals using real examples.

Recent Challenges

During recent high school sessions, logging in late and frequent distractions—such as using a phone during lessons—meant less time spent tackling new algebra or geometry questions.

In one Year 9 tutorial, "I had to almost give him 80% of the answers just to keep him engaged."

On another occasion, forgetting essential materials like calculators or notes made it hard to follow through with Pythagoras and Pi-based tasks.

Meanwhile, a primary student aiming to improve spelling rarely submitted written work for feedback, limiting opportunities for targeted support.

Missed homework and forgotten revision notes left gaps before assessments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Point Clare noticed one high school student who previously hesitated to ask for help now openly requests clarification when stuck and even asked for extra homework to challenge himself, a big shift from staying quiet during sessions.

Another secondary student, after struggling with Pythagoras' Theorem at first, walked out of the lesson confidently able to explain each step on his own.

In Year 5 English, a quieter student surprised her tutor by volunteering examples of figurative language independently, something she hadn't done before. At the end of that session, she asked if they could try harder spelling words next time.

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 Kariong Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Point Clare Public School.
