To understand what my students strengths and weakness are and to approach on as a senior or superior but as a co-worker as we are both learning and adapting to problems that we face together. I'm easy going, not too strict, understand the stress of school and won't pile on the homework but still ensure enough to prove that my students understand…

The most important thing a tutor could do for a student is show them that every student responds to education in the same way or at the same pace and whichever way they process information is perfectly normal. The goal is to maximize learning, in the way that works best for the students. I have seen this significantly reduce academic frustrations…

Different students have different skills. I believe recognising this is what helps a tutor make a difference to a student. The most important thing is that a tutor recognises a student as an individual; addressing areas where a student has little confidence while offering lifelong learning strategies. At a practical level, this includes…

As tutors, the most important thing they can offer a student is the opportunity to improve their learning.

One of the most important things about being a tutor is…

I think the greatest gift a tutor can provide to a student is support. School can often be an isolating and intimidating experience, and often students, despite being remarkably talented, feel afraid to take risks and go beyond what is expected of them. A tutor can also make the learning experience far more rewarding and enjoyable. Students feel…

Surya is going very well.
Jeremy, Tennyson Point

Inside Breakfast PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Imogen worked on converting between fractions and decimals, as well as identifying factors and multiples using number patterns.

For Year 8, Amber tackled expanding algebraic brackets and moved on to factorising expressions with practice problems.

In Year 11, Hannah reviewed the measurement of economic growth along with understanding the marginal propensity to consume/save and applying the simple multiplier formula through real-world examples.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Mathematics, Tyler often skipped setting out his working clearly, especially when expanding brackets or solving algebraic fractions. As one tutor noted, "he worked out answers in his head instead of writing steps," leading to confusion over operation signs and missed terms.

During exam revision, he sometimes neglected assigned homework, which meant foundational skills—like inequalities and rates—were not fully reinforced.

In senior Economics (Year 12), rushing through comprehension tasks led to overlooked errors and difficulty connecting ideas between texts. This left gaps during practice exams when questions required deeper analysis under time pressure.

Recent Achievements

In Year 8 maths, Tyler used to struggle with algebraic fractions but now solves them independently and even applies those skills when tackling new exam-style questions.

Meanwhile, a senior student working on Business Studies essays moved from mainly descriptive writing to more analytical responses after targeted feedback—now she edits her work to focus on argument rather than just content.

For English, Zarraf was once hesitant to share ideas aloud but now maintains eye contact and elaborates thoughtfully during discussions, especially when prompted by the text.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Jessica and Mohamed had a great start and I think Mohamed is doing a good job getting to know Jessica. I'm pleased with his teaching style and method.

Evangeline is lovely. She is very patient with Steph and takes the time to explain things quite clearly to her. After Evangeline has been, Steph is very happy and excited that she has learned something new.

Jane is great. She is easy to talk to and seems very keen to help Tanner. Tanner also likes her and he already seems to have learnt things from her and is remembering it. While kids generally don't like any form of school work, Tanner seems to enjoy being tutored by Jane. She makes things fun for him.

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 Gladesville Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Patrick's Catholic Primary School.
