Tutor Queens Park, NSW
To me, the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to be firm but patient, and to allow them to solve problems/formulate ideas themselves, not just be fed information to rote-learn. I believe this style of educating enables students to develop their own confidence as they actually understand what they’re doing, not just taking a…

I perceive strong communication skills, high level of patience and sound receptive skills are very important in the role of a tutor. I showed the ability to adapt to my students’ needs. Especially when I had a student who experienced difficulties with the English language and topics covered in the 9th grade. I explained the material in a…

For me, the most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is working out the best strategy that suits the student. That does not merely mean helping the student to solve a problem but also building up their confidence and provide them a method that they could use for themselves in the future. My strength would be a strong background of…

Helping students improve or maintain their grades, along with teaching extremely valuable lessons is the most important thing I can do for a student. A tutor not only teaches but shows compassion, is understanding, and helps student be the best that they can be. An example is when helping a student who suffers from bad time management. This for…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to listen to them because the student is the one who knows what they're struggling with and they are the ones who are going to tell me what they need to learn. Furthermore, I think it is important to teach students how to learn and study so that they can keep learning and working…

1. Revise fundamental concepts as they are essential to solve more complex problems. 2. Always break down the question before trying to solve problems. This makes the problem become simpler to solve and stimulates recall of the basic concepts that they have learnt before. 3. Always summarise what has been learnt as this helps to consolidate…

The most important things for a tutor is to be a source of support that they can reach out to, not only in the specific subject that they're tutoring, but also studying and school life in general.

The most important things that a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, are motivating the students to learn on their own as well as arming them with the tools and study skills. The motivation to learn is critical, since the tutor can teach the material, but at the end of the day, it is the student who has to master it. Without such…

Show the student how to learn something. If a tutor can explain another way of looking at problems so that the student understands how to approach them, its the most useful thing for them.

Plenty of communication with the staff. First tutor wasn't suitable ie experienced enough but the replacement was excellent.
Rosemary Peppard, Little Bay

Inside Little BayTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Ethan practiced multiplying and dividing fractions, then moved on to solving perimeter and area problems for composite shapes using diagrams.

For Year 8, Olivia worked through expanding algebraic brackets and applied these skills to more complex equations, with a focus on clear setting out of her working.

In Year 10, Sam reviewed trigonometry concepts including the sine and cosine rules, reinforcing understanding by tackling exam-style questions involving real-world contexts.

Recent Challenges

In Year 7 maths, one student's written work was still messy and hard to follow, making it difficult to spot calculation errors when tackling fractions.

A Year 10 student delayed sharing assessment deadlines until the last minute; as a tutor noted, "their assessment was due that very day," which left no time for targeted support.

In senior English, another student received feedback but only made minimal changes to reading comprehension tasks rather than addressing the core suggestions. This meant valuable strategies weren't applied before practice exams.

Recent Achievements

A Little Bay tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who used to freeze up at simultaneous equations now working through them independently, even explaining her steps aloud without prompting.

In another session, a Year 8 student who had trouble remembering formulas began recalling key content and could apply it in new problems with little hesitation.

Meanwhile, a primary school student—who was previously reluctant to ask questions—started openly admitting when he felt stuck and asked for help on tricky perimeter challenges. Last week, he finished all ten practice problems on his own after seeking guidance just once.

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 Malabar Community Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like La Perouse Public School.
