Tutor Booker Bay, NSW
Implement creativity and a willingness to try is the most important skill a tutor can pass on to their students. Once a student builds a willingness to try and a need to challenge themselves, they will be more likely to build good habits and routines around creating these pathways for themselves. I always ask myself 'how do students learn' and…

The most important thing I can do for my students is to help them reach their goals, i.e. if they want high grades help them with that, but if they just want to pass then helping them to do that is just as important I have a deep understanding of school content and syllabus, an appreciation of the subject, an ability to explain complex information…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make them feel proud and confident with themselves as well as being a supportive teacher. I know from experience that when you're struggling with a concept it is a very disheartening thing and can lead to self doubt and giving up. I think a tutor should help a student work through…

Personalise the experience. It is vital to get t know the student, their concerns, their best learning style. The pace and content of the sessions needs to be adapted to the student's ability to achieve confidence and competence.

Provide support both academically and mentally. This can be done through practicing a topic of a subject, and also helping schedule their weeks, so they know they will still have social/leisure time, and maximize their grades and themselves. I am incredibly confident and happy to also learn new things. For example, if a student comes to me and…

I would have to say the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is show them the beauty in a subject the student may not so much enjoy. This allows the student to achieve goals as their newfound perspective on the topic has changed to positive. I personally experienced this within my own studies. I went from a poorly achieving student…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is show genuine care for the student's learning. Additionally, having a passion for teaching is vital, because with no passion and care, the tutoring interactions with the student are inauthentic.

A tutors responsibility isn't to provide answers, but to guide students to find their way of learning and to provide alternative approaches when tackling problem scenarios or questions.

I think the most important thing is approaching learning with compassion and patience.

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student in my opinion is to give them guidance on how to be successful in the subject we tutor. At the end of the day we only see them once or twice a week. We can't teach them everything. So it is important that we guide them on how to learn and study in order to be successful. Myt strength lies…

Inside Killcare HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Olivia practised converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages, as well as simplifying fractions to strengthen foundational number sense.

In Year 8, Zac worked through questions on multiplying and simplifying fractions, then applied these skills to more complex worded problems involving ratios.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Emily focused on rearranging algebraic formulas to change the subject and substituted values into equations for homework assignments, helping her become more confident with multi-step algebraic manipulation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, one student's lesson was slowed by forgotten homework and disorganised working—"she did not do her homework set for her last week," a tutor observed, with scattered calculations making it hard to track progress.

In Year 10 trigonometry, skipping written steps when rearranging equations led to sign errors and confusion mid-task.

Another senior student in financial maths struggled after leaving notes at school; revision time was spent searching for missing materials rather than tackling new problems.

For a younger learner, messy graphing layouts produced avoidable mistakes—lines overlapped and key points were lost among hasty scribbles.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Killcare Heights noticed a Year 9 student who previously hesitated to ask questions now brings up challenging homework problems at the start of each session, clearly explaining where she gets stuck and double-checking her understanding before moving on.

In Year 8, one student who struggled with rearranging formulas is now confidently substituting values into equations without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who was initially reluctant to tackle money word problems began drawing currency diagrams by herself and solved several multi-step addition tasks independently this week.

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