It is most important that a tutor doesn't give up on their students. This means not only continuing teaching the student but also means that the tutor should always believe a student can improve with their guidance. In addition, it is essential for a tutor to be able to learn the student's strengths and weaknesses and their way of thinking, so the…

The most important thing is being able to connect with the children and spark curiosity about the subjects in their minds. As them being excited to learn makes them more receptive to learn more complex topics with relative ease. My strengths are approaching problems with different perspectives and focusing on the logic and structure of the…

A tutor can provide the pathway of learning. The tutor should understand the position of his/her students. Significantly, the tutor helps to form a strong foundation which helps students to achieve the goals. Basically, teaching is an art. I prefer doing teaching in a simple way. Students can learn better if subjects material is divided into…

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…

1. Give them a correct perspective 2. Encourage them to do better and try things, even if they do wrong they should be. That's how they will learn from mistakes and excel.

It is most important for a tutor to engage with the student, so that they will be more inclined to be attentive and take the lessons seriously.

Inside Chatswood WestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Hugh practised long multiplication and division, and explored number divisibility rules for 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, and 9 through step-by-step examples.

For Year 8, Ethan worked on solving simultaneous equations and reviewed Pythagoras' theorem while tackling mixed algebraic problems from a practice test.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ava focused on graphing quadratic functions and reinforced her understanding of function notation in preparation for an upcoming assessment.

Recent Challenges

Homework completion and organization emerged as concerns for both primary and high school students.

For example, a Year 7 student only partially completed set homework, making it harder to build momentum between lessons ("the tutor will send the homework more in advance for future lessons").

In Year 11 Maths, one student forgot last week's homework entirely, leading to gaps in algebra and probability revision.

Exam anxiety stood out at senior levels: "Gemma gets stuck in her head under examination conditions," causing recall issues even when content was known.

A Year 10 struggled with time management during tests, repeating mistakes instead of correcting them on the spot.

Recent Achievements

A Chatswood West tutor recently noticed Ziggy now tackles correlation and regression questions with real confidence after previously hesitating to try more complex problems—he even chose to attempt extra linear equation tasks on his own.

Another win came from Finn in Year 9, who used to make frequent careless errors but has noticeably reduced these while learning new trigonometry concepts not yet covered at school.

In primary, Lucas has started completing his homework independently and attempted new mean/median/mode questions without waiting for prompts, showing far more initiative than before.

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 West Chatswood Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Aurora College.
