My most important skill as a tutor is being able to actively listen and answer the potentially inexhaustible questions a student may have so as to sufficiently develop their understanding of the subject matter. I believe my ability to explain and deconstruct complex ideas and processes as well as my focus on the understanding behind these complex…

The most important thing a tutor can do is inspire confidence. Within the class, it is a safe space for the student to talk about their short comings or lack of understanding. It is then the tutors job to help the student and breed confidence. This then extends out of the class and into the exam hall. My biggest strength is empathy and being able…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do is being patience, consistent and most of all understanding. I think every student will learn differently, and it's important to go at their pace and ensure that we can make them understand and learn. I believe my strengths are that I am a very patient parent. I don't easily get irritated and have a…

The most important part is listening to your student and making sure he/she is understanding and feeling confortable with it. This will make the learning process be more effective. Besides, training and learning the best teaching techniques should always be one of the priorities of a tutor. I consider myself a patient person, which is key to…

One of the most important aspects of a tutor is to be flexible in perspective such that they can view the problem in the same way the student does. This allows the development of a nurturing path to understanding and makes sure that the student has a rock-steady foundation upon which they will lay their future learning. I'm an avid believer of…

One of the important things a math tutor can do for students is constantly testing them with the knowledge they have already absorbed in the past. Questions need to be changed, but concepts need to be practiced repetitively. The other important thing tutor can do to help students is organizing notes. Math contains a sphere of knowledge (formula/…

Ease their anxiety. Time spent on understanding. (Process is more important than the result) Giving them the tools to fish than rather the fish itself. Showing them stress doesn’t solve problems, making an effort does. There is nothing you can’t do. One day these things will help you. Make them realise their potential. Patience…

As tutor, answering kids' questions kindly and patiently is one of the most important things. It is also important that we check with them if they understood the topic. Children often hesitate asking questions due to the fear of judgement and hence it is our duty as a tutor to give them a comfortable space where they can ask things repetitively…

Local Reviews

The information on the website was incredibly helpful to find a tutor / read profiles. Communication once contacted was very prompt and professional as well as supportive in terms of our special requirements. Although the tutor we had chosen wasn't available they provided us with another tutor option who was perfect. The ongoing follow up and support resources have been a great asset to our new tutoring journey.

Inside CherrybrookTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Aanya worked on addition and subtraction of fractions as well as finding fractions of quantities, using number lines to support understanding.

In Year 8, Sam tackled linear equations and practiced solving two- and three-step equations, along with revising ratios and rates in preparation for an upcoming assessment.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student James focused on HSC Chemistry past papers, specifically refining skills in Module 6 calculations and analyzing Module 7 reaction pathways.

Recent Challenges

A Year 7 student often avoided writing out working for algebra and fractions, saying, "I can do this in my head"—but missed marks on questions that required clear steps.

For a Year 9 learner preparing for a test, unfinished practice papers meant tricky word problems remained unmastered; as one tutor noted, "he needed to finish more practice tests to feel ready."

In senior Chemistry (Year 12), long response answers were incomplete because not all components of the marking criteria were addressed, resulting in lost exam points despite sound content knowledge. The pressure of time left some key details omitted.

Recent Achievements

A Cherrybrook tutoring session saw a Year 9 student, who'd previously needed reminders to apply strategies for fraction-to-decimal conversion, independently use the right method after just a brief review.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student who often hesitated with multi-step chemistry calculations managed several complex Mod 6 problems without prompting—an improvement from earlier sessions where step-by-step guidance was needed throughout.

For a younger primary student, one tutor noted that subtraction and addition are now completed solo rather than requiring hints at each step; last week he finished all his set questions without asking for help.

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 Pennant Hills Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like John Purchase Public School.
