Hanwen
Modern History Tutor Sydney, NSW
I think the most important thing is not to dump all my knowledge onto a student, but to have them have their own lightbulb moment, and figure out ways and strategies that work for best them. I am able to go at a pace that they are able to adapt to, implement different strategies easily, and I get along with a wide range of people, creating a safe…

Jungwoo
Modern History Tutor Pyrmont, NSW
I consider empathising with the student the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. I have also been in the student's position before so I want to make my students feel that they are not alone in this and that many others also who struggle with the same issues and questions. I think that my greatest strength as a tutor is perseverance…

MinJae (Albert)
Modern History Tutor Pyrmont, NSW
The most important things that a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, are motivating the students to learn on their own as well as arming them with the tools and study skills.
The motivation to learn is critical, since the tutor can teach the material, but at the end of the day, it is the student who has to master it. Without such…

Solomon
Modern History Tutor Darlinghurst, NSW
Provide a safe space for the student to make mistakes without judgement. They don’t always have this at school with their peers looking on.
Provide high level materials that don’t just duplicate those from school or in generic books. I really think about the resources we use to make sure they are the right level, challenging and have stretch…

Koko
Modern History Tutor Darlinghurst, NSW
I think the most important thing a tutor can do is tailor their approach to accomodate for the needs of a student. I also think it is incredibly important to offer both academic support and assurance, particularly when a student lacks academic confidence. A lot of the time, errors or poor performance are rooted in students' hesitance and belief…

Modern History Tutor Pyrmont, NSW
As I've stated before, I have a love of learning. This has not only allowed me to excel in my studies but has also filled my life with joy and wonder at the many things there are to learn and understand. This was given to me by my teachers and parents, and I think this is the best gift a teacher of any kind can give to a student. I have a solid…

Inside SeaforthTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 6 student Lilly focused on improving her recall and speed with times tables, especially the 4s and 12s, using interactive games and practical strategies.
In Year 9, Amelie worked through simplifying, multiplying, dividing, and rationalising surds, as well as applying volume formulas to compound shapes—sometimes drawing diagrams to visualise problems.
Meanwhile, Jerry in Year 8 tackled linear relationships by practising how to find the equation of a straight line from a table of values and reviewing homework on converting between percentages, decimals, and fractions.
Recent Challenges
In Year 8 Mathematics, one student consistently lost marks in exams by not showing full working for algebra and geometry questions—"he lost a lot of marks in his exam as he did not show his working out," a tutor noted.
In another instance, a senior Physics student's written layout was flagged: "We will continue to practice good setting out so it becomes a habit."
For HSC-level Maths, one learner repeatedly forgot to bring essential materials like notes, worksheets, or calculators to lessons, which limited hands-on revision and practice. These patterns often left students retracing steps or missing feedback opportunities during crucial assessments.
Recent Achievements
A tutor in Seaforth noticed that Jaida, a Year 11 student, has started questioning the strategies behind tricky exam problems instead of just following steps—showing she now understands not just how but why solutions work.
Jerry, in Year 8, recently shifted from rushing through algebra to carefully setting out his working and double-checking each answer, a big change from his earlier mistakes due to skipped steps.
Meanwhile, Clara (Year 12) has begun tackling past exam papers independently and now talks through her approach aloud when stuck, rather than quietly giving up or waiting for answers.

Local Spots for Tutoring
