I think close support and motivation especially during their examinations is crucial. Making the student sharp by regular homework/assignments and making them fall in love with the subject and eventually learning are very important in my opinion. Identifying students strengths/passion and grooming them is another very imperative factor. I think…

The most crucial role of a tutor is to avoid skipping steps unless the student fully comprehends the material. Observing problem-solving methods can be helpful, but it's the student's grasp of the logical progression behind solving problems that enables them to excel. I strive to leverage my communication skills and adaptability to discern and…

A tutor shouldn’t just repeat what a students been taught by their teacher.

Giving peace and self-confidence. In such a way that the student can focus on a topic and grasp the concepts in peace of mind.

If he becomes interested, even after understanding a…

I think the most important thing for a tutor to do for a student is to listen to them. In order to properly help a student it is essential that you listen to them and focus on what they say they understand and where they say they are getting caught as they often understand parts of concepts and just need your help to put them all together.

Yue has been tutoring my daughter for over a month and things are going well. My daughter enjoys working with Yue and finds her patient and easy to work with. Yue is great with her communication and always responsive when I have contacted her in between sessions. We look forward to continuing tutoring with Yue.

Inside BrownsvilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Cailyn consolidated her understanding of dividing and subtracting fractions, then extended this by practising algebraic substitutions involving decimals and like terms.

In Year 10, Daniel worked through financial mathematics topics such as calculating simple interest and motor vehicle registration costs, alongside revising questions about VATs and straight-line depreciation.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Nicholas focused on trigonometry using SOHCAHTOA for unknown sides in right-angled triangles, and also reviewed bearings problems to support his exam preparation.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student hesitated to use their calculator when stuck on fractions, leading to time lost "deciphering the formatting" rather than focusing on problem-solving.

In Year 10, one student kept working in their head during algebra and rarely showed full steps; as a tutor noted, "it was difficult knowing where she was stuck if she kept her process contained within her mind."

For a senior English assignment, difficulty planning paragraphs meant that arguments often lacked cohesion, especially when writing resumed after a break—earlier sentences were forgotten, and ideas disconnected mid-task.

Recent Achievements

One Brownsville tutor noticed Daniel, a high school student, is now reworking maths problems independently to check for accuracy—a big shift from needing reminders to double-check.

In another session, Nicholas has started structuring his English essays effectively around the most relevant characters instead of including everyone, making his analysis much sharper and more focused than before.

For Year 3 student Ariana, she's moved beyond just memorising multiplication tricks: she now uses them confidently in classwork without prompting and has begun tackling division with success.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Just thought I would let you know Eden received the highest mark in her math class for the year common test.  The teacher was very impressed and I had one very happy daughter.

We are very happy with Matt , he is a good personality match for James and he is finding the sessions most valuable.

Thanks for the follow up. We could not be happier with Avi.  Alex really likes and respects her. She is already helping to build his confidence and having him see that he actually doing very well. We would like to continue with her for sure.

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 Dapto District Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kanahooka High School.
