I think it is important that a tutor be able to explain a concept in a way that the student can understand, internalise and remember, while tapping into their passion for the subject, rather than strictly and laboriously forcing them to rote-learn concepts (with the exception of fairly simple ideas like times tables of course) I think my strengths…

The most important things are studying with students together and help them by giving a hint, not a solution. This is because learners can recognise what the student's are struggling as if they had the same problems and can help them effectively. Additionaly, if we give just effective hints to them, they can progress the problem and they can…

The best thing a tutor can do is leave a student with the tools, knowledge and confidence to continue advancing their academic career without relying on the tutor or teachers. I'm quite smart but also good at talking and listening to people. I see one of my strengths as being able to articulate an idea in a simple way, especially with Economics,…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to help them learn whatever they want to learn, even if they have a lot of difficulty understanding it. The first and most important thing would be the fact that I myself was a school student not long ago, and am a university student still, so I would understand what my…

As a tutor, I think the most important thing that a tutor could do for a student is making the student feel comfortable first. Based on my opinion, students will not study efficiently if you put too much pressure on them. So I would try to be as friendly as possible so that they can ask me questions easily. I think both party would enjoy to do…

A tutor, first and foremost, must ensure that a student is improving their grades, that is why people look for tutors in the first place. However, as well as this, a really good tutor can instil a genuine love of a given subject. This will also greatly assist in improving the student's performance. Thus the most important thing a tutor can do is…

A tutor can make a student love the subject he/she hates. The most important thing for a tutor is to understand the student, his/her interests, aptitude, and what he/she is inclined towards. If you have a basic idea of the student mindset you can develop techniques to make them understand the subject in a way they don't find it hard. Gamification…

I'd say one of the key things is creating a comfortable space where students feel free to ask questions without hesitation. Building that trust is like laying down a solid foundation.

I think the most important thing is to teach them how to think in the correct way. For physics and science, understanding is much more important than remembering. Therefore, teaching them to think by themselves is very important for their future academic success. Also, personal interest is another important factor. Teachers should cultivate the…

More important than the content is the environment a tutor can create. By reciting the book's content, I might be able to help the student pass their grade.

All the methods a tutor uses should be geared towards helping the student learn something, and have them understand and remember what they've…

Inside FyshwickTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Muhammad worked on crafting a collaborative crime fiction podcast, including character profiling and drafting scenes, while also reading and answering comprehension questions for "The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas."

Year 8 student Ari focused on statistics by interpreting box-and-whisker plots, identifying outliers, and practicing data representation with dot plots and column graphs.

Meanwhile, Year 3 student Josh completed an English reading assessment and tackled basic NAPLAN-style math problems to build foundational skills.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 English, one student deleted a full essay after the teacher required a new format, but did not send a revised draft for feedback—"he may have been pressed for time or reluctant to share," noted the tutor.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 maths student repeatedly forgot to bring homework, impacting their ability to review concepts between lessons.

For Year 9 statistics, messy written work and skipped steps in finding outliers led to confusion during class discussion.

In senior English (Year 12), an unstructured approach to essay planning left responses underdeveloped and difficult to edit before deadlines.

Recent Achievements

One Fyshwick tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously struggled with graphing linear equations now confidently using both elimination and substitution methods after targeted step-by-step guidance.

In Year 8 English, a student who was hesitant to ask questions about essay structure has begun sending through drafts independently and actively seeking feedback, showing new initiative in his writing process.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who used to rush reading comprehension is now taking time to back up answers with text evidence, pausing to explain reasoning before moving on.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Sophie is responding to Rounak very well. Rounak is a great teacher and Sophie gets along well with him. We're all very happy!

It is going very well. Katie is a truly lovely person. Cassandra has responded well. It is going as well as it can. Cassandra is naturally avoidant of the subjects that she is being tutored in, currently with Katie we are doing one week on Maths and the following week on English and so on. Cassandra engages in the tutoring, and does seem to learn, despite her being sure that she doesn't need a tutor. My partner and myself are very busy at the moment and don't have time to tutor her ourselves, besides, she doesn't like to listen to us, whereas, she will sit beautifully with the tutor. So it really works in that way.

Thanks for your note. It seems to be off to s good start. We appreciate maths coaching and look forward to seeing Louisa and India work together.

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 Kingston Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Narrabundah Early Childhood School.
