I think the most important thing for a tutor is to understand what the student needs and work through those blocks with positive reinforcement. Some students have a hard time understanding concepts while others have no faith in themselves and struggle to retain information. I believe that the best thing a tutor can do for a student is to figure…

I believe taking ample effort in preplanning lessons, thinking about the topic for different perspectives is vey important. The most important thing, I think is to stick with the student till they understand the topic and not race through the course plan. I think I am very creative in approaching problems. I can easily get into the mindset of the…

Few viable things which a tutor can do to help the students are: a) Deliver to them motivational thoughts and constantly encouraging them to do well. b) Critically thinking about any difficulty which might pose a hurdle in the pathway of student's learning and bring-forth ways to mitigate it. As a tutor, I believe to have the following…

Patience is an essential quality required from a tutor as it is important to acknowledge that every student has a different level of understanding and approach towards their studies, and thus the best method of maximising their understanding is to tailor our teaching methods to motivate their learning and provide an encouraging learning…

Psychology Tutor Castle Hill, NSW
From my experience as a tutor, I believe a tutor should be able to connect with a student and ensure that the student trusts them enough to ask any question. A tutor should be open to student input and feedback, to make sure they're getting the maximum benefit from tutoring. Moreover, in my opinion, it is essential that a tutor uses sophisticated…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do is create a safe and supportive space where the student feels comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. Learning can be intimidating, especially when someone is struggling, so it’s crucial that a tutor builds trust and encourages curiosity without judgment. When a student feels safe…

Inside Stanhope GardensTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Arya focused on solving monic and non-monic equations as well as finding surface area and rearranging equations for her upcoming assessments.

In Year 11, Olivia worked through electromagnetism concepts alongside revision of the double slit experiment in Physics, using visual aids to reinforce understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Ethan concentrated on Module 5, 6, and 7 Physics revision—particularly the effects of electric and magnetic fields—tackling a range of past HSC questions for practice.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to keep written working neat and organised, making it hard to review errors—"his working out is still difficult to read and follow," noted a tutor during algebra.

In Year 10, a student avoided writing steps for multi-step questions in trigonometry, which led to lost marks under exam conditions.

Meanwhile, one Year 5 learner often forgot key content (like negative numbers or fractions) between lessons because homework was incomplete and note-taking inconsistent.

When faced with complex networks in Year 11 maths, uncertainty around terminology like 'circuit' and 'cycle' meant extra time spent re-reading rather than solving.

Recent Achievements

In Year 11, Emily was able to look back over a past trigonometry test, pinpoint her own mistakes, and then explain how she would correct them—showing much more self-awareness than before.

Nikki, in Year 9, became noticeably more independent during algebra sessions: after struggling to rearrange formulas earlier this term, she could now group and simplify like terms on her own without prompting.

Meanwhile, Arya in Year 5 has started re-explaining new maths concepts aloud right after learning them—a big shift from staying quiet when confused.

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 Stanhope Garden Library/ Dennis Johnson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St John XXIII Catholic College (Secondary).
