A tutor should be able to have a friendly relationship with their student, and it is extremely important they always try to understand where the student is coming from, and assess ways they can help. They should assist them to achieve their goals, and be their number one supporter! I am a very friendly and approachable person, so I feel students…

Teach students how to think rather than what to think. Spark curiosity in them, encourage them to always ask questions. Remind them that at one point in time, the greatest minds on Earth struggled with simple questions. Everyone has something unique to offer to society, so tutors should encourage creative thinking as well. I have always been very…

A tutor should not just be present to give the student all the answers. Its about building confidence and understanding the student’s way of thinking in order to help them grasp concepts and overcome their academic difficulties. Its about taking on a leadership and mentor role so that you can guide your student, and making them feel comfortable…

I believe a tutor is all about being able to be the middle man between teachers and students. They are able to act in a professional manner but also can individually suit the needs of a specific student. In doing this tutors are able to fill in those missing links and hopefully create a sense of confidence in students that they might otherwise…

The biggest thing would be to help students understand that ignorance is not failure. Just because they don't know something "basic", that does not mean they are worse than others, or are stupider, or are not going to succeed. It simply means they were not taught in a way that makes sense to them. This could be for a number of reasons, and not…

I think the most important thing is that they feel motivated to learn, and that going to a tutor would be a fun experience for them. With that, a tutor should be able to clearly teach students and that the student can confidently go to a tutor knowing that he or she will fully understand his or lessons. They should always feel that the learning…

Local Reviews

Jaya has a gentle but firm way with Charli who really struggles with confidence in her maths. Charli has come ahead leaps and bounds in her abilities over the last year and that is definitely due to Jaya's guidance and support. I would highly recommend Jaya to anyone who is looking for support for their child.

Inside FletcherTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Arjun worked on basic algebraic equations and strategies for unit conversion, practicing step-by-step problem solving.

In Year 9, Ava focused on straight-line equations by formulating lines using gradient (m) and y-intercept (c), along with tackling advanced exam-style questions involving gradients.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ethan revised non-right-angled trigonometry concepts and bearings, completing challenging past paper problems to deepen his understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to extract data from long worded problems in maths, often losing motivation partway through. As a tutor noted, "she gets demotivated when the question has a lot of words and fewer pictures," which meant essential details were missed during multi-step tasks.

In Year 10 algebra, another found it hard to keep track of variable signs, with working skipped or only partly shown—leading to repeated sign errors and less feedback from the marker.

During HSC preparation, a senior student submitted short, shallow formal responses; incomplete answers left exam markers unsure about her reasoning.

Recent Achievements

A Fletcher tutor recently noticed Molly, a Year 10 student, shifting from needing step-by-step guidance with straight-line equations to independently extracting data and forming the equations herself during sessions.

In Year 8 maths, Janae used to hesitate when tackling algebraic problems but now solves multiple questions on her own without prompting and recalls methods from earlier lessons.

Meanwhile, Georgia in Year 11 has begun explaining annuity table calculations more clearly—her answers are now both more concise and detailed compared to her initial brief responses. Last week, she completed an advanced financial maths question without any hints.

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 Wallsend Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Bishop Tyrrell Anglican College.
