Tutor Leichhardt, NSW
One of the most important things is to let students gain confidence in a subject they are struggling with by breaking down concepts into something easy to understand. It is also very important to create a supportive environment where students feel confident to try, even when the material feels difficult. I often see students give up on a question…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to lay a right foundation for the student to learn. Teaching them not to memorise formulae but to actually understand the theory behind the formula as higher levels of maths rely on prior knowledge that needs to be firmly understood. My strengths lie within my experience and personality. I…

I think confidence is key, it’s not about rigorous testing, its about ensuring that they have confidence to solve the problem, focusing on teaching the method in different ways. ( E.g teaching a formula in maths based on step by step, visual and writing the instructions down in words) I never really had a normal study method and it really made…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to give them the confidence and strategies to tackle problems even when you, as a tutor, are not there. I do this by offering skills and strategies rather than answers, and allowing students to have a go at a problem themselves before stepping in. As well as skills, confidence is…

I believe a tutor can make all the difference to a student struggling with their studies. School teaching can often be mechanical and impersonal; an environment where some students find it difficult to learn. I know first hand that teaching in smaller groups or one-on-one works is much more effective at learning hard to grasp concepts. The impact…

A tutor is someone that a student can rely on for support. They are pragmatic in finding ways to ensure the student has a positive experience with learning. The student is in control, and the tutor is a guide that assists and also facilitates the student to take safe risks, ask questions and completely engage with their learning in ways suitable…

The most important thing is to make sure that the student doesn't feel overwhelmed with their workload, and instead has fun (or at least doesn't detest the time spent) while studying. In this regard, the tutor has to make the content interesting and tailor it to each individual if it's one-on-one. I'm very patient in explaining concepts. I also…

The most important thing a math tutor can do for a student is help them build confidence. From my experience, most students understand math but are afraid of it.

I find it important for tutors to be able to make a student comfortable to ask them questions and to give wrong answers. The most important way we learn is through seeing our failures and determining what we can do better the next time. Without being able to acknowledge their own mistakes and see how they can do better, students will not be able…

Inside Bardwell ValleyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student William focused on converting decimals to percentages and vice versa, as well as practicing mean, mode, median, and range using real examples.

For Year 10, Sophia worked through quadratic expressions and equations—mainly factorising non-monic quadratics with the PSF method and applying the quadratic formula.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Adam revised the sine rule and its applications in trigonometry by working through textbook problems with diagrams to reinforce understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student repeatedly left out written steps when solving algebra equations—he prefers to solve the question without writing it down and sometimes he makes mistakes because of that—leading to missed negative signs.

In Year 12 Advanced English, another avoided concise phrasing in short answers, making exam responses less focused under time pressure.

For a younger student, messy formula layout during surface area questions made it difficult to check work later.

Meanwhile, one Year 11 student forgot calculators for multiple lessons, limiting progress on trig and differentiation drills. These habits caused delays and extra corrections during sessions.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Bardwell Valley noticed a big shift with Milo (Year 11): after previously hesitating on geometry questions, he now independently solves complex financial maths problems and can write equations of lines without prompting.

Meanwhile, Benjamin (Year 10) surprised his tutor by confidently tackling normal distribution formulas—he'd struggled before but now rarely needs help to get started.

On the primary side, Leona (Year 4) showed new focus and independence; she finished mixed fraction conversions mostly on her own after usually needing step-by-step support. Last session, she chose to attempt extra questions herself.

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 Arncliffe Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Athelstane Public School.
