I opine that understanding the IQ and how to upgrade it is the key responsibility of a mentor. It is also imperative that a tutor should be patient if a child is not understanding a question and try to explore new ways to make it clear. I am very loving and patient as I know kids take time to understand the key concepts. Non-judgemental is the key…

I think the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to have them gain confidence with themselves in terms of excelling in school. I think this confidence is important in not just getting high marks in quizzes and tests, but I believe that being confident will help them long-term in solving problems not just in school, even though…

Learning can be spilt into 3 parts. First being simply understanding the content without worrying about exams. Second being revising and coming up questions possible from the content and getting a deeper understanding. Third is looking at the exam questions and how to form the answer to get maximum marks.

Local Reviews

Hannah is a great tutor.
Katie, Russell Lea

Inside Russell LeaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Sophie worked on surface area and area of composite shapes, along with strategies for breaking down complex geometry problems.

For Year 10, Lachlan revised algebraic operations including expanding brackets and solving equations using targeted practice from his chosen workbook.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Ava focused on calculus applications by practising optimisation (max/min) problems and reviewing differentiation techniques through real exam-style questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student repeatedly left revision for major exams until the last minute and missed key Term 1 content, leading to ongoing gaps in algebra that now undermine confidence before finals.

As one tutor observed, "he has not done any work on this revision on his own."

In Standard Maths (senior), another student failed to mention a major assignment part, completing it solo instead of seeking help—missing valuable feedback and support.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student consistently crammed working onto one page without clear layout, making error tracking nearly impossible during complex algebra. These habits created confusion and wasted time during sessions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Russell Lea noticed some encouraging shifts lately. In Year 11, William used to rely on memorising formulas but has started asking more "why" questions and now works through problems using logical steps instead of just rules.

During a recent Year 12 session, Kyle took initiative by focusing revision on his weaker areas for an upcoming exam; he's also begun double-checking his work independently—something he avoided before.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who once hesitated to speak up is now regularly explaining how she solves math problems out loud and even volunteered to tackle the hardest question first 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 Five Dock Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Russell Lea Public School.
