The most important thing as a tutor is to incentivise and assist clients to reach their ideal academic performance, while also respecting their boundaries and not pushing them too hard. I can also incentivise them to be more passionate and confidence in the subject I tutor them for, as well as empathise with and provide emotional support for…

It is so important for tutors to adapt their method of teaching to the way the student learns. Every student not only has different needs and difficulties, but learns concepts differently. It is extremely important to regularly re-evaluate the student's objectives. Modifying your approach as a tutor to make the student feel comfortable and…

The best thing a tutor can do for a student is affirm their self-worth as a learner and as an individual. It can be frustrating not being able to figure something out, but it becomes a lot less daunting without extreme expectations. I think my strengths as a tutor lie in my patience and my creativity. It's certainly not an easy task learning…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to improve their confidence and help them to reach their full potential. In subjects such as math, where continuous practice and thought is necessary, the confidence of the student is very important to their success. Many students become discouraged as they believe they are bad at the…

In my opinion getting the students view is the most important things a tutor can do for them. In my case, I put myself in their place and try to get their view so I can solve their problem and try to remove that for forever.

The role of a tutor is not to solve problems for the student, but rather, their role is to equip the student with the necessary tools for them to solve problems independently. I believe i am approachable and adaptable. This is an important trait for a tutor as no two students are the same. I can adapt to fit the needs of the student in order for…

Develop their love/passion for a particular subject/field.

I think communication is one of the most crucial skills. I believe every students, somehow, are capable of learning. So even though I don't have extraordinary skills to teach them, they will learn from my explanation.

Inside LindfieldTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Alex worked through network concepts like critical path analysis and minimum cuts, using diagrams to visualise solutions.

For Year 12, Jamie practised HSC-style questions on trigonometry and probability, then reviewed statistics and networks for exam readiness.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mia focused on simultaneous equations in algebra and explored how probability applies in real-world scenarios.

Recent Challenges

During recent Year 11 Maths assessments, timing issues caused Kayla to rush or freeze on multi-step problems—"she panics a little when she knows there's a time limit," one tutor observed. This led to unfinished questions and undermined her confidence.

In English, difficulty articulating deeper analysis rather than just describing details meant written responses sometimes missed key marks; teacher feedback highlighted the need for clearer explanations of significance.

Biology lessons revealed hesitation with interpreting data from graphs and applying experimental protocols independently, often requiring extra prompting before moving forward.

Frustration after lower-than-expected results occasionally made her reluctant to tackle new material right away.

Recent Achievements

A Lindfield tutor recently noticed Kayla volunteering to be timed on her math work—a big change from earlier sessions where she hesitated to tackle problems under pressure.

She's also begun coming to lessons with specific questions and a clear plan for what she wants to review, showing more ownership of her learning.

In English, after struggling with structuring arguments in essays last term, Kayla now consistently refers back to her thesis while writing and has started drafting study notes independently.

Last week, she worked through all steps of a multi-part probability problem without prompting.
