I am a self-confident person that likes to be dedicated in something that I like such as tutoring and math. I am also a positive and an energetic person and I am…

Joshua
Tutor Cammeray, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do is answer as many questions as the student has, regardless of whether or not it is a good question. In doing so, I believe it is crucial to create a comfortable atmosphere where the student to feels safe and not judged. Another important thing a tutor can do is to encourage independence, giving students a…

Will

I believe the best thing a tutor can do is to inspire confidence and a deep appreciation for lifelong learning in the student.

The most crucial aspect of a tutor's role for a student is to understand them and be able to establish a friendly connection.

In fact, a tutor should be able to gauge from…

Akshay

As a tutor, it is important that you pass on the right knowledge to the student. Make them think about things by themselves instead of giving them straight away. A tutor, shouldn't discourage students if they ask a dumb question, they should resolve all their queries with a good understanding. A tutor's job is to support a student and be curious…

One of the most important thing a tutor can do is to help a student to acquire the knowledge. What it means is that the student can internally understand what is being taught as a building block, which enables the student to advance his/her learning.

Inside ClontarfTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 11 student Jaida focused on surface area and volume formulas, then practised strategies for algebraic fractions and coordinate geometry.
For Year 9, Amelie worked through surds—including simplifying, multiplying/dividing, and rationalising denominators—alongside revision of trigonometry concepts like bearings and angle calculations using diagrams.
Meanwhile, Year 8 student Lilly strengthened her addition, subtraction, multiplication and division skills by tackling homework errors and used times tables games to boost recall speed for upcoming topics.
Recent Challenges
He needs to keep using steps and formulas provided, after seeing working skipped in algebra problems—this led to confusion when reviewing errors later.
In Year 11, one student arrived without a calculator or notes for trigonometry revision; the missing materials slowed progress, as key steps couldn't be practiced independently.
A Year 6 lesson highlighted the need for clearer written working: Ensuring she writes down questions and working out in a way she can understand would help her revisit tricky area and volume problems before tests.
Recent Achievements
A tutor in Clontarf recently noticed some great shifts across a few students. One Year 11 student, who previously hesitated to speak up, now regularly asks questions when tackling tricky calculus problems and even challenged the tutor on certain methods to better understand the "why" behind solutions.
A Year 9 student surprised herself by completing her maths assignment ahead of schedule for the first time, showing new independence and avoiding last-minute stress.
Meanwhile, a Year 4 student started correcting her own mistakes while practicing times tables—where she used to just wait for hints—finishing her worksheet without needing prompts.
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 Mosman Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Balgowlah Heights Public School.
