The best thing a tutor can do for a student is affirm their self-worth as a learner and as an individual. It can be frustrating not being able to figure something out, but it becomes a lot less daunting without extreme expectations. I think my strengths as a tutor lie in my patience and my creativity. It's certainly not an easy task learning…

1. Be prepared. As a tutor, it is my responsibility to be prepared for the session. That includes preparing the lesson beforehand and getting everything ready. 2. Reviewing the fundamentals with the students. This means not jumping to advanced topics with the students when they might need a little refresher on the subject. In math, it is…

A tutor can offer support in anyway possible. It may be a visual diagram/highlighting technique/mind map structure/post-it notes etc. As a tutor, I am patient. I always build a good rapport with the students first. I need to become familiar with their hobbies and interests. It is very important for a child struggle that the work excites them and…

I consider the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to encourage and empower them.

I believe a student can learn anything if they are engaged in the subject matter and they have…

Again, providing help academically is important, however, everyone who is smart can do that easily. However, that's not everything being a tutor is about.

In my opinion, a tutor can act as the bridge between the student and the learning outcome. I feel the job of a tutor is to instill confidence in the child and inculcate a joy of learning the subject.

In the context of Science and Mathematics, the key aspect is HOW to think. Science requires imagination, innovation as well as an excellent recall and grasp of modern scientific understanding.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to inspire a love of learning.

I think that as a…

Inside Dawes PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Xander focused on circle geometry, including properties of tangents and chords, and reviewed for his upcoming maths exam.

Year 11 student Soraya worked through advanced trigonometry concepts and tackled polynomial expressions from her textbook chapter 22b.

Year 12 student completed past papers to revise polynomials and logarithms, as well as fine-tuned algebraic skills like expanding brackets in preparation for final assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student preparing for exams kept needing to look back at notes during trigonometry and functions, showing that not all key formulas were memorised; as one tutor noted, "there are a couple equations that will not be available on Charlie's resource sheet during the exam." This slowed progress in practice sessions.

In Year 9 English, another student was reluctant to link evidence back to topic sentences in an assignment and needed reminders about structure—leaving parts incomplete and ideas unconnected.

A primary student left division homework unfinished, feeling overwhelmed by a multiplication table. These gaps led to lost confidence or rushed last-minute revision instead of steady improvement.

Recent Achievements

Charlie, a high school student in Dawes Point, moved from needing frequent prompts to independently completing past exam papers and highlighting key points for revision without assistance.

Another secondary student has begun tackling challenging circle geometry problems solo—last month she hesitated and waited for guidance, but now she often attempts solutions before asking for help.

Soraya in primary school demonstrated a big shift during NAPLAN practice: after previously missing several questions on area, she not only solved those correctly this time but explained her reasoning out loud while working through the steps.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We have been very happy with Kayla's tutoring! Charlie said he was the best prepared he had ever been before a Maths test. He got 64/67 for the knowledge part (previous test was 19/65!). His problem solving, while not fantastic, improved, and his communication had also greatly improved. We are pleased that he ended up with a pass after the previous test, and really I think he will only get better now. Charlie reports that she explains things really well to him which is fantastic.

Thank-you!  Chelsea & Jarrod, are very happy with Vafa, and find her very easy to get on with, the kids are feeling very comfortable!! I am very pleased.

Mihika is doing very well with both Lachlan and Courtney, they are building up a rapport together and their exam results have been improved. It certainly has boosted their confidence and we they like their tutor.

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 Customs House Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Observatory Hill Environmental Education Centre.
