Apart from only teaching the textbook content, I like to counsel them as to the importance of education and how its going to help them in the future by encouraging them to do better. Tutors need to give the students a short break of about 5-10 mins in between so that they don't get over worked, as the situation demands. Both of this helps the…

Tutoring is more than just teaching content, it's about teaching a person. And that requires understanding, compassion and patience. I understand, that a good tutor is intelligent and knowledgeable. However, a great tutor is one which is able to listen, understand and empathise. A great tutor should be able to place themselves in the shoes of…

The age old question: “What am I going to do with my life when I finish school, and how do I get there? The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to assist them to an extent in answering this. By this, I mean mentoring and guiding students through their subjects - to the point where they feel confident enough to not be held…

Identifying and discussing a student's needs and conforming to those needs in a comfortable manner for the student! Sounds like word vomit, but in basic words, I want to help a student both the way the way they want me to, and the way I think they need me to. In organizing a more personalized learning experience, I think that students will be able…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to not only nurture them through the subject, but also in life in general. Not only the tutor should help them with the subject, but help them grow as a more mature individual and guide them to reach their dreams and goals in life. My strength as a tutor is communication and how I interact…

This connection is important for many reasons, not only to be a good tutor but to also be a confidant in times of crisis. In the past I have worked with children who had special needs. Being close to the student…

Be patient with them and encourage them to do their best. Consistency is key and results don't just appear overnight, trust the process and at the end all anyone can ask of you is to do your best.

Inside Fairfield EastTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Jayden worked on understanding equivalent fractions using area models and practiced writing fractions in lowest terms.

For Year 9, Emma tackled solving linear equations and explored graphing techniques to find intercepts and gradients.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sarah focused on bivariate data by interpreting scatter plots and calculating lines of best fit, including use of the regression equation for predictions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student relied heavily on their calculator for simple mental arithmetic, which slowed down problem-solving in algebra tasks—she reached for the calculator even with single-digit numbers.

In Year 10, one learner's written working was often unclear, especially when tackling complex surd and indices problems; as a tutor observed, messy layout made it hard to spot where errors crept in.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student avoided communicating confusion and sometimes copied previous answers instead of asking questions.

During timed assessments in Year 11, anxiety led to panicked rushing and missed checks, resulting in repeated mistakes that went unnoticed.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Fairfield East noticed one Year 10 student, who previously hesitated to use her calculator, now reaches for it independently and checks her working on harder algebra problems without prompting.

In a recent session with a Year 11 student, there was a marked shift: after consistently making errors on probability homework last term, he's now completing similar tasks with correct answers and explains his reasoning out loud as he goes.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who used to guess when confused about fractions has started speaking up clearly whenever something doesn't make sense—last week he asked for help before attempting the next problem instead of guessing.

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