I think it is important to be adaptable, each student and each age group will learn differently. Even moreso, I think it is vital that tutors are patient, listening to their students and trying to make them feel as comfortable as possible even when faced with a challenge. I think as a tutor and in general, I am very hard working, and will be …

In my opinion, building a student’s confidence and providing friendly assistance is the best any tutor can do for their students. As someone who has received tutoring in the past, I know how much of a difference these simple things can make to a nervous or hesitant student. I believe my strongest attributes as a tutor are that I am very patient,…

I think it's a question of what a tutor can BE rather than do. I found in my experience that I always responded to teachers who were enthusiastic and portrayed a genuine care for the learning of the student. In a metaphorical sense, the tutor must think like a student in an empathetic way rather than merely be a one way stream of instruction. If a…

Finding out whether a student is a visual, auditory or kinesthetic learner is important. By discovering how the student learns best, I believe he will be able to reach his true potential. To do this, a tutor must be malleable in his teaching methods and communication. Furthermore, it is crucial that the tutor and student create a bond that reaches…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to provide an individualised approach as this leads to an optimal learning environment and thus maximises the student's chance at success. Without an individualised approach, communication issues can arise which can lead to a lack of content understanding and sense of failure from the…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to teach them to learn for themselves. It is easy to rote memorize a formula or a text, but to be able to teach someone how they can teach themselves and to show them how to problem solve so that they can attack problems independently is far more valuable I believe my strengths as a…

Let them make mistakes. Not give them the answer directly and encourage independent learning.

I believe it is important to ensure they understand their work thoroughly. To teach with ease, patience and understanding. Meaning - repeating oneself (if necessary) until they understand and are comfortable with their work.

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…

A good tutor should help their student develop a love for what they are learning. When this is done successfully, this has a knock-on effect on the student's results as they are more engaged with the content they are learning. This starts with the tutor being passionate about the content they are teaching and being determined to push the student…

Inside Canada BayTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Blake practiced using the OREO structure for persuasive writing and built vocabulary through word association games.

Year 7 Charlotte focused on mastering factor trees to break down numbers and then used these skills to solve square roots of larger numbers.

In Year 9, Angelique revised algebraic expressions by expanding and factorising them in preparation for an upcoming test, working through targeted practice questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student repeatedly forgot to submit homework, even after completing it—this left gaps in class discussion and slowed his writing progress.

As noted by a tutor, "he got distracted by his laptop during research tasks," which meant key questions were left unfinished.

In Year 10 English, a student rushed timed persuasive writing and missed important details, leading to weaker arguments under pressure.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student skipped re-reading passages in comprehension tasks, causing her to miss vital information; she often answered from memory instead of checking the text, making mistakes that could have been avoided with slower reading.

Recent Achievements

A Canada Bay tutoring session saw one high school student shift from relying on reminders about BODMAS to independently solving all her mixed-operation maths problems by the end of the lesson.

Another older student, who previously hesitated with Pythagoras' Theorem, now confidently finds missing triangle sides and checks if a triangle is right-angled without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner moved from avoiding tricky homophones to spelling them correctly and explaining their meanings aloud, after initially expressing doubt.

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 Five Dock Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Concord High School.
