I believe the most important role of a tutor is to give the student a chance to learn according to their own skills. Whilst school classes are integral, often students may get lost or left behind as the curriculum advances. Without the individual attention of a tutor they may have lingering gaps in their education and understanding that go…

A tutor’s most important role is to create a supportive learning environment where students feel safe asking questions and confident in their understanding of the content. By fostering an open and judgment-free space, I encourage students to engage actively with the material, ensuring they fully grasp concepts rather than simply memorizing…

Be empathetic... Often students are going through a lot more than just school and/or sport, and sometimes tutors do not realise this when they're loading them with a lot of information. By being empathetic and patient that tutor is able to consider that needs of the student and alter sessions accordingly to ensure the greatest bang for the buck. I…

All my previous students have thanked me for teaching them the foundations, filling in any gaps before continuing on with new material. This gave them confidence in the subject and helped them achieve the highest grades in their academic career. It also provided them with an optimism to life, since if by doing well in school, they could see…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to understand not only where they need assistance in their school work, but how they best learn. No matter how good or well-educated a tutor is, if they can't adapt to different learning styles, the student will not benefit. Through helping my classmates throughout high school, I have…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do are to build understanding, confidence, and independence.

Not only help them improve their grades, but seeing my neighbour's grandson with his tutor I can see that it's a social interaction that he is dire need of, if he wasn't appointed a mentor to take him out and about and the Pokemon GO walks we go on sometimes, the kid wouldn't leave the house. I'm surprised his eyes haven't gone square (dad again…

Firstly identifying the student's various strengths and areas of improvement is very significant to give a general idea of which topics to focus/skills on the most whilst teaching them. Another key area that a tutor should investigate further is the student's most effective way of learning specific concepts e.g. visual, written, auditory etc. A …

At the end of a session, you want your student to understand the concept being taught, rather than blindly solving problems using formulae without understanding why. Targeting low-confidence areas: Most people like doing things they're good at but if you're already competent in those areas, you're just wasting time. This is why it's important…

Make them independent problem solvers and this can be done by first bringing some motivation and then confidence in the student that they can improve their study habits and learn what they may find 'challenging' at the moment.

Teach them how to study. I feel that too many students think the only way to study is to read the text book or talk to the teacher. Although these are valid ways I feel that most students don't realise there are other ways to study. I personal prefer to watch videos explaining the subject, draw pictures and diagrams, and then make flash cards.…

A tutor needs to be apt at recognising where a student is at and how they learn, and able to accomodate for a students needs accordingly. They also need to be supportive and encouraging, providing constructive criticism where needed whilst also recognising the students progression and achievements. My biggest strength is my patience and empathy,…

Inside BlaxlandTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Alexia revised multiplying and dividing algebraic expressions and practised simplifying equations using worksheets;

Year 9 student James focused on applying Pythagoras' Theorem to find unknown sides in triangles and reviewed expanding algebraic brackets;

meanwhile, Year 10 student Sam tackled Financial Maths by calculating GST, taxable income, and worked through exam-style problems involving percentages.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Maths, one student hesitated to select problem-solving methods, leading to confusion when switching between addition/subtraction and multiplication. "He kept second-guessing which method fit the question," a tutor observed, resulting in lost time and uncertainty on mixed-topic assessments.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student's revision remained surface-level—they repeatedly reviewed only recent topics rather than integrating older material, so concepts like ratios or long division slipped from memory during tests.

For a younger primary learner, inconsistent letter formation caused mix-ups with 'j' and 'i,' slowing reading progress and making spelling corrections harder during writing activities.

Recent Achievements

One Blaxland tutor noticed a Year 9 student who'd previously second-guessed every algebra question start working through problems without pausing to ask for reassurance, especially when multiplying expressions.

In another session, a Year 10 student tackling Financial Maths shifted from skipping difficult exam prep questions to actively working through them and asking for help only after trying different approaches herself.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once lost focus during reading tasks began volunteering to read new words aloud and now finishes spelling lists with few corrections—last week she spelled every word correctly on her test.

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