First of all, empathy so student never feels uncomfortable about not knowing a topic. Secondly, the ability to listen is as important as explaining things, so I'll be able to understand their point of view on a specific problem/subject. And, of course, the knowledge the tutor provides will be a main achievement and a perfect indicator of progress.…

I consider the time and space a tutor gives to the student the most important thing. It is all about what they, as the student, are comfortable with. However, this does not stop another important aspect; pushing a student through their limits in order to achieve their goals. These are the most important things a tutor can do for a student. I…

I believe that the most important thing a tutor can do for his/her students is to individualise the learning process. This means adapting to the individual's learning style, learning their strengths and weaknesses and tailoring the teaching style to cater for each, and keeping track of their progress. Instilling confidence in the student is also…

The most important thing is to create a environment in which the student is not afraid to ask questions and in which every question is considered important. A tutor has to respect that everyone learns differently and has to be prepared to re-explain things a few times, maybe in different ways for the student. I am a good listener, I believe I…

To never answer a question for them, and to make them believe in themselves more than they ever have.

A tutor has to want the student to succeed in what they're learning. It's important to know specifically where the student is struggling in order to help them. It would be remiss not to mention that there is a positive impact on the students' performance in school as well. If I explain something and the student doesn't understand, I'll find…

A good tutor should give to every student: 1- an understanding of the principles in the material; 2- the tools to tackle the material with confidence - typically inductive or deductive reasoning; and 3- an appreciation for the subject.

Inside DuncraigTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Leo worked through solving quadratic equations using the null factor law and tackled advanced contextual quadratic problems, including revision on factorisation.

In Year 9, Ben focused on geometry—solving angle diagram questions and exploring congruency proofs with diagrams.

For Year 8, Zara practised expanding and factorising algebraic expressions, then applied these skills to linear relationships in real-world problem scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 maths, one student avoided writing out full working, instead solving problems on their fingers; this habit made it difficult to catch errors in trigonometry sequences.

A Year 11 student left foundational mistakes unchecked in spreadsheets—"Double-check answers are correct with the investigation as it is easy to make subtle mistakes with spreadsheets," a tutor noted—resulting in repeated small errors across tasks.

In Year 4, times tables practice was limited to familiar patterns, which slowed progress when switching between multiplication sets.

During complex fractions work in Year 7, skipping homework led to missed opportunities for vital repetition and skill consolidation.

Recent Achievements

A Duncraig tutor recently noticed Danielle is now completing her maths tests faster and getting more questions right than before—she used to run out of time and miss marks.

In a Year 9 science session, Holly, who last week hesitated with supplementary angles, was visibly more confident this time and solved them without second-guessing herself.

Meanwhile, Sam in Year 3 has started reciting most of the 4 times tables at a reasonable speed; he used to pause often but now keeps going with much less prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Yes - Bailey is happy with Reshmi. She's good at explaining how he should be breaking down the question in order to get the answer for the problem. As he only has less than 2 months before the HSC they've been working on a plan to get Bailey to work on and improve his maths.

We are very happy with Sheetal. Timothy is making great progress and we are happy to continue. We will have Tim do his Navy test in a few weeks and if we need to do a bridging course we will ask Sheetal to tutor him with that as well.

Mitchell is happy with the new tutor, thank you. Sean is a good communicator which makes Mitchell feel more relaxed thanks again.

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 Duncraig Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Duncraig Primary School.
