I believe a tutor is not only a teacher but also a mentor. They are someone for the student to look up to, but also there to help the student develop their understanding through friendship and camaraderie. As they are separate from both school and home settings, they can offer an external and unique perspective on both academic and personal…

In the context of Science and Mathematics, the key aspect is HOW to think. Science requires imagination, innovation as well as an excellent recall and grasp of modern scientific understanding. Mathematics, being a tool - requires the students to be well-equipped with the basic mathematical tools. To directly answer this question; a tutor must…

I will ensure the student understands every concept by providing practice papers and answering questions outside of tutoring session times as well…

The most crucial aspect of a tutor's role for a student is to understand them and be able to establish a friendly connection. The student should feel no embarrassment in asking questions when they don't understand, and the tutor should create an environment where the student feels comfortable doing so. In fact, a tutor should be able to gauge from…

A tutor needs to inspire the students in such a way that they know what their efforts will make them accomplish. A very few teachers are able to provide the contextual applications of what they teach the students. I believe it is paramount that a student know about WHY he is being taught something. Sparking interest in studies is not easy at times…

I think the greatest gift a tutor can provide to a student is support.

A tutor can also make the learning experience far more rewarding and enjoyable. Students feel…

Very helpful staff. Invoicing was simple Tutor was a little insecure/shy which was not very motivating for my child. He was late on a number of occasions but very happy to stay over the 1hr to complete work.

Inside ForestvilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Jessica worked through pattern recognition and tackled long division using step-by-step examples.

In Year 8, Ethan focused on converting fractions to percentages and decimals, then interpreted pie graphs and charts with real-life data sets.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ava explored financial maths by calculating GST and percentage change, applying these skills to practical scenarios.

Recent Challenges

Several high school students missed assigned homework on multiple occasions, particularly in Year 9 and Year 10 mathematics—one tutor observed, "He did not complete his homework again which is unfortunate."

In a senior maths lesson, a student forgot key content from previous weeks during a test review, suggesting little revision outside of sessions.

For one Year 8 algebra session, steps were often skipped in working out equations ("attempted to do some conversion questions in his head"), leading to confusion and small errors that weren't easily traced back.

During advanced geometry with a Year 11 student, messy layout made it difficult to follow reasoning or spot where the method broke down.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Forestville noticed a Year 9 student who previously mixed up algebraic rules is now correctly applying BODMAS without prompting, making fewer calculation errors during practice.

In another session, a Year 11 student showed new independence by identifying and solving gradient questions on their own—this used to be an area where he'd hesitate or wait for hints.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who was once unsure about times tables now answers multiplication problems with growing speed and checks her work before moving on to the next question.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Stella is fantastic and Alex's maths grades went from D to B with Stella so we are very grateful. I am keen for her to continue because she was doing very well with Stella.

Dorcas was brilliant. Proactive, organised with a genuine interest in Yasmin's learning. Dorcas went over and above what was required of her and for that I am very grateful. Your company has always been professional and understanding also, no complaints there whatsoever. Thank you for following up with us and perhaps another time in the future we may need your services, I wouldn't go anywhere else to find a tutor.

Thanks for your e-mail follow up! All is going well thank you with Serenity-Mae's tutorials. It has been a positive experience for her which is great!

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