Firstly, the most important factor for a tutor is her/her knowledge in the field he/she is tutoring. I am proud that I have always tried so hard to learn as much as possible and got highest marks during my studies. Secondly, it is really important to know how to behave and how to transfer knowledge to a student. I am glad that I know how this…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be available and willing to answer and encourage questions and critical thinking.

I believe one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is serve as a secondary teacher/mentor to a school teacher. As school teachers have to focus on a large class (usually around 30 students), they are unable to address the needs of each student. As each student has their own struggles and needs, an exterior tutor provides…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is listen to what they are asking, and targeting their weak areas within the prospective subject. By doing so the tutor should aim to tailor each lesson accordingly. I think my strengths as a tutor would be my perseverance, clarity when explaining concepts, the ability to identify a…

The most important part of a tutor's job is to encourage the student and to also recognise any signs in the student that they may not understand what is being taught to them. Many children are shy when admitting that they don't completely comprehend a subject and it is important to let them know that they can share their insecurities within the…

I don't hope to replace the school teachers completely.

Ghoorisha is great! She's very patient in teaching my son. She explains everything well and finds other ways of explaining things if my son doesn't get i the first time. She also communicates well.

Inside Canley HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Elena practised interpreting column graphs in data topics and worked on simplifying algebraic expressions by collecting like terms.

In Year 8, Elizabeth reviewed surds and indices for an upcoming test, focusing on index laws and using worked examples.

For a younger student, Year 5 Liam concentrated on consolidating addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division skills to strengthen his basic number fluency through repeated practice.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 mathematics, one student regularly skipped showing working for algebra and linear equations, which led to sign errors that went unnoticed until answers were checked. "She jumped straight to the answer and made mistakes," a tutor observed after reviewing her homework.

A Year 5 learner avoided attempting worded division problems in class, feeling overwhelmed by their complexity; this meant valuable practice was missed.

In Year 11, forgetting formulas for area of shapes led another student to leave school homework unfinished without even reading through the question.

For several younger students, not memorizing multiplication tables slowed down all further calculation work and left them reliant on fingers or trial-and-error—making later topics much harder to access confidently.

Recent Achievements

One Canley Heights tutor noticed Tanja began actively checking her own answers and tackled over half her assessment independently—where she'd previously hesitated to work without support.

Another secondary student, Emily, showed a real shift by asking for more sample problems on simultaneous equations after struggling with the difference between substitution and elimination; last session she solved over half correctly compared to just a few before.

Meanwhile, in Year 4 maths, Liam started using his own chosen strategies to tackle multiplication questions rather than waiting for hints from the tutor.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thanks for asking So far so good Michael is great. Kane seems to be quite happy

We are very happy with the way the tutoring is working out. Harry seems to have improved already and his confidence is on the way up, all good news. Lee has been excellent and Harry is very happy to work with him.

Sophie is very happy with Jane as a tutor.  Jane is extremely diligent - we have the complication of the UK syllabi and Jane has taken a lot of trouble in her own time, to check up on what Sophie should be learning !

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 The Whitlam Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Canley Heights Public School.
