Patricia-Carmen
Tutor Dawes Point, NSW
I think the most important thing as a tutor you need to be honest, be flexible, be patient, be a good listener, teach the student how to learn.
I believe tutors fill a different role than teachers and parents, and that puts them in a unique position to support students. Personal relationships are foundational to student success -- the more…

Alyssa
Tutor Haymarket, NSW
The tutor should be reliable, and help them unleash their potential. Students should learn that they are able to do things on their own, hence a tutor should also be encouraging. I am able to relate to the students. I can mold my way of teaching into their liking, and I am prepared. I will think of all strategies to teach them…

Tutor Haymarket, NSW
Patience and not comparing them with the others. I believe that each student has their own pace of learning. Lack of patience and comparing them with others will certainly hamper their learning process and will give them less confidence on their studies. Understanding the most effective way of learning for each student is also crucial. When I was…

The important things a tutor can do for their students include making the subject enjoyable and empowering students to reach a point from where they can arrive at solutions on their own.

Anusha
Tutor Forest Lodge, NSW
Not give the answers but help support the learning process and give guidance when the child needs it most. There is a difference between doing all the work for the child and actually teaching how the problem can be approached and observing how the student does it him/herself. If the child is stuck on a concept, it is my responsibility to help the…

To me, the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to be firm but patient, and to allow them to solve problems/formulate ideas themselves, not just be fed information to rote-learn. I believe this style of educating enables students to develop their own confidence as they actually understand what they’re doing, not just taking a…

I think the most important things a tutor can do for a student are listening to them and paying attention to their needs. Students can be shy and may not make it abundantly clear what they need in any given moment, but there are usually signs, though they may be subtle. It is a tutor's job to monitor the student throughout a lesson and make sure…

Local Reviews
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.

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.
