This includes recognising their strengths and other skills to be improved and adopting the appropriate approaches to accelerating their progress. As a student with a strong background in…

Listen to the student patiently. Different students have a different understanding capacity. Therefore, a tutor should be flexible to adjust to the level of the student and explain to him/her about the subject. I am an active listener and a patient one. These two go hand in hand as it is really important for me to understand the student's needs,…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do are to build the student’s confidence, make learning approachable, and create a safe space where they feel comfortable asking questions. It’s not just about helping them get the right answers, but about helping them understand the why behind what they’re learning. A good tutor should also…

Be patient. Tutors cannot expect students to understand or get the question right the first time. It is important for tutors to understand where the student went wrong and to slowly and easily correct them by following the question. Once they grasped an understanding, tutors should give the student similar questions to practice so they are…

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.
