For smaller children, it is important that education is intesresting, entertaining to them, so the motivation for studying, learning content comes naturally and from their own. For older children, it is more important for tutors to reach out and ask the students what they don't understand or are not clear about. Targeting weak areas and fixing the…

I think it's really important for a tutor to offer intrinsic motivation to a student. I find that alot of students are easily academically discouraged. I believe my role as a tutor is to provide them guidance and encouragement. However, I believe a tutor should always be realistic and honest with their student as it would be wrong to offer false…

Facilitate the student's own learning by equipping them with the tools to then seek out how to learn and solve problems, and allowing the student to go where they want to go. I think I have great emotional ability as a tutor, able to connect with the way students are feeling and their attitudes and approaches to work. I think approach and attitude…

Helping students build confidence is arguably the most important and beneficial thing a tutor can do.

Volunteering as an instructor…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to develop their confidence and skills to be able to problem solve independently.

This is particularly important as it enables students to become…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to make the student feel at ease with the subject at hand, especially to the point where they begin their own individual methods of inquiry into the subject. A student should never feel under pressure to perform in ways that make them feel discouraged about their own abilities. The consequence of that is…

The best tutors can not only teach but also critique students, guiding them through errors as to elucidate any gaps in their knowledge.

I value creating "WOW" moments for students.

I also think it is important that tutors stretch and challenge their students. This can be achieved by getting…

Amongst other things, being a figure of support for students is very important as a tutor.

Audrey, Balmain

Inside Balmain EastTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Charlie reviewed mean, median, mode and tackled Interquartile Range, then moved on to constructing and interpreting box plots using recent test questions.

Year 9 student Emma practised solving simultaneous equations and reinforced her understanding of algebraic equations through targeted problem sets.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ava focused on compound interest calculations and depreciation problems in maths, working through real-world scenarios for extra clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student struggled with reading worded geometry questions fully, leading to missed key details—"she is still struggling picturing the different scenarios from the word questions," noted a tutor.

In Year 11, failure to plan and condense history notes led to either excess information or critical gaps when revising for assessments.

For Year 8 algebra, skipping steps in rearranging equations hid sign errors and slowed progress.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student repeatedly forgot multiplication tables during fraction work, causing frustration mid-task and slowing confidence growth when tackling more complex problems.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Balmain East noticed a big shift for one Year 10 student who had previously missed key details in algebra questions; she now checks each problem more carefully and rarely skips important information.

In Year 8 maths, another student moved from confusion with multi-step percentage problems to independently solving even the longest ones without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner who once hesitated to read aloud tackled Level 11 and 12 books solo this week, finishing them with no help and even attempting the next level up.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are certainly happy and off to a great start. Edward has been great, punctual & helpful. I am confident this  trend will continue and George's math will only improve.

We found Luke to be a knowledgeable and good tutor who worked well with Jessica. He was able to provide us with 2 tutoring sessions prior to Jessica's exam. I think more than anything he helped settle her nerves and was able to provide exam study strategies to enable her to approach the Chemistry exam in a prepared and calm manor.

Thanks, we all love love love Kieran.  Just what both my kids needed.  Awesome tutor!

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 Balmain Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Nicholson Street Public School.
