Make the concept easy enough for them to understand. Secondly, allowing for all types of questions to be asked. I was a shy student, worried about my answers and questions on how my teachers would judge me. But i think the best way a tutor can teach someone is by allowing the students to ask the most basic questions so they can grow and work hard…

To give them confidence and make them feel good about themselves. There is nothing more counter-productive than making a student feel disheartened and bad about themselves, since self-doubt yields anxiety and often poor performance in exams. Establishing a basis of trust is vital for the success of the student, so that they feel in a safe space to…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be a kind, and patient individual. So often people don’t want to ask for help especially students since they fear being judged or that their question won’t get answered. This is why I think being someone your student can trust is very important in helping them learn. Patient, good…

Every child is different and their way of learning will ofcourse be different. So with a few classes we should understand the pace of student and make the learning process unique for each child.

Help them with issues that they cannot clarify anywhere else. Empathize with them and tell them things they can relate to. Help them get a better grade at the same time making them love the subject.

Because there is a strict rule that students must pass all the subjects even when they are already mastered their favorite subject of study. But they lose their confidence and focus in their mastered subjects and they get lower grades. But the most important thing is that there…

Personally, a tutor is someone outside of school who the student can rely on for their studies. Students show their vulnerability here so that tutor can build them to be strong at school. So a tutor can help the student be strong on their subjects and understand the subject with life. Understanding the student on what they need first and being…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be patient and slowly help the student understand. If they are not quite getting the content, a tutor should also be able to teach it with a different approach, and eventually find a method that is intuitive for the student. As a tutor, some of my strengths are patience,…

Melissa

Inside TarrawannaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Danu worked on HSC Chemistry content, focusing on mole calculations, electron configuration (including spdf notation), and intermolecular forces.

Year 10 student Zali practised adding and subtracting multi-digit numbers and tackled worded problems, then moved to number patterns and interpreting number lines for improved numeracy skills.

For primary support, a Year 4 session with Allegra covered multiplication using games like Prime Climb and introduced tangram puzzles to reinforce geometric shapes in a hands-on way.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Chemistry, a student was reminded to prepare notes from slides before sessions but often arrived without them—this made it harder to discuss average molecular weight and spdf notation ahead of a quiz.

During Year 10 revision for maths assessments, "she needs to show explicit working out for each question," as one tutor noted, yet her written steps remained brief or missing.

In Year 7, keeping worksheets and notes scattered meant extra time searching for material instead of reviewing exponents.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner left homework incomplete and required frequent encouragement just to begin reading tasks.

Recent Achievements

A Tarrawanna tutoring session saw a Year 11 student, Charlotte, shift from feeling unsure about her writing to independently setting clear academic goals and asking targeted questions about each topic—something she hadn't done before.

Meanwhile, Felicity (Year 10) began actively self-correcting small mistakes in her essays without prompting and used more varied adjectives after initially struggling to diversify her vocabulary.

In primary school, Allegra's tutor noted that she was once anxious in maths class but is now so engaged she earned a commendation card for improvement and proudly said she no longer feels nervous about maths.

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 Corrimal District Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Tarrawanna Public School.
