The most important role a tutor can play is showing constant and unconditional support for their student. This is something I've learned from the example of my previous tutor who answered almost every email or text message within the hour within reason. I believe showing this constant support allows the student to trust us as tutors and react more…

Any tutor, mentor, educator, or teacher all have something different to offer their students: but the goal is the same and it should be this: to help empower those who can't empower themselves in order to bring forth the best version of that individual into the world. It is through education, knowledge and the reciprocation of knowledge that…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is listen to what they are asking, and targeting their weak areas within the prospective subject. By doing so the tutor should aim to tailor each lesson accordingly. I think my strengths as a tutor would be my perseverance, clarity when explaining concepts, the ability to identify a…

Therefore, being flexible and able to provide a unique experience for every student is integral to the role of tutor.

The effective tutor aims way beyond just being a good tutor. It is essential tutors always point out the good achievements of students as much as they make note of their mistakes. Providing encouragement should go beyond the work completed in lessons and a tutor should often check in on how students are coping and provide positive encouragement…

My strength as a tutor is how I communicate concepts. I…

Local Reviews

Sam has been an excellent, kind, understanding and patient tutor with Gabriella. Under his guidance she has made improvements in her outcomes and study habits in spite of her great difficulties with the subject. She had gone from a fail grade to a pass mark and has steadily applied herself more consistently to regular study thanks to Sam. We have nothing but praise for his abilities.

Inside Fairfield WestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Elizabeth revised surds and indices in preparation for an upcoming test, focusing on simplifying expressions and practicing key skills.

Year 8 student Elena worked through interpreting column graphs in data topics and practiced simplifying algebraic expressions by collecting like terms.

For Year 9, Jacob focused on solving equations with variables on both sides and expanded to equations involving brackets, using worked examples for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student arrived unprepared for a school test, only discovering it during class—this lack of organization meant key revision was missed and results suffered.

For a Year 8 student, homework was attempted just minutes before the session, with half forgotten and focus fading throughout; as one tutor put it, "he was very tired during the whole lesson."

In Year 6, skipping working steps and jumping straight to answers led to basic calculation errors in division tasks.

Meanwhile, a primary student avoided multiplication altogether due to not memorizing times tables, often leaving gaps when faced with these questions.

Recent Achievements

One Fairfield West tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 9 student who, after often hesitating to ask for help, now comfortably asks clarifying questions when confused—something he rarely did before.

In Year 11, another student began catching and correcting her own mistakes in scientific notation, quickly adopting new problem-solving techniques instead of repeating errors.

Meanwhile, a younger primary school student surprised her tutor by independently re-opening her notebook during fractions work to check past lessons for help—showing new initiative she hadn't demonstrated before.

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 Smithfield Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Westfields Sports High School.
