One of the most important things for a tutor to be able to provide a student, is a sense of progression through exam marks. Moreover, being able to communicate to students well and without ambiguity or miscommunication in the explanation of mathematical concepts is one of the most important qualities a tutor must have, as that is what determines…

I wasn't the smartest kid in the school and I don't think a person good at doing tutoring is how their intelligent in the area. I believe is more like how they can understand the children, understand why they feel the difficult on the subject. As Normal kid myself, I have the ability be the good tutor I think. I have the ability to allow kid to…

In my personal opinion, I believe a game-changer for students is to have a tutor who helps build their confidence. Rather than only imparting knowledge, a tutor should foster a learning atmosphere that makes students comfortable to ask questions, make mistakes and even question the knowledge of the tutor. My strengths as a tutor include the…

A tutor has to be understanding and respectful to the student that they are teaching, they need to realise that these individuals don't have the same level of knowledge as them at the time, so they need time to learn and understand difficult concepts and that require more explanation. The key is to build a strong healthy and friendly relationship…

I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student is helping them improve in areas they may be struggling in, as well as helping them further in other areas.

I think helping students understand how to approach a question and learning how to discipline themselves is the most important. Constantly reminding them to complete their homework so we can go over their mistakes next time is also important in establishing a routine and will hopefully give them an incentive to do the same with school. I believe I…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them understand the course content- so they can pass assessment- and also to help them understand other aspects of the subject they need or want to understand, either for the sake of curiosity or because they have some use for it. It is best if this understanding is of a deep…

The best thing that a tutor can do for a student is not to regurgitate information - that can be found by reading a book, or browsing the internet; but to inspire. I believe that a perspective can be most powerfully shared by someone who has seen and understood, who can empathize with the struggles that are necessary to get to seeing the solution…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them how to approach learning in a way that is self sufficient. Understanding content is important for the time, but ultimately, a tutor should leave the student with the skills to know how to understand content when the tutor is no longer there. I am patient, persistent and…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to ask them for constant feedback/questions. Some students are hesitant to ask questions when they are confused, which can easily lead to them not understanding content. Hence, it is important as a tutor to actively make sure that your student actually understands what you are teaching. As a…

Inside LugarnoTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Harry practised converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages and reviewed Pythagoras' theorem and early algebra topics.

In Year 8, Jessica focused on solving linear equations and word problems as well as applying index laws using worked examples.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Max tackled differentiation and integration questions for upcoming trial exams, with extra attention to calculus techniques through targeted practice problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student repeatedly relied on "test yourself" questions instead of tackling harder challenge problems in trigonometry, which limited exposure to unfamiliar scenarios—"decided to change from challenge questions as they were quite difficult."

In Year 7, a learner's maths book showed unclear working and messy layout, making it tough to spot where sign errors crept in.

At the senior level, one Year 12 student hesitated with integration and differentiation because he sometimes confused which method was needed; this led to wasted time reworking problems under exam pressure.

Missed opportunities for self-led revision also meant forgotten rules resurfaced during assessments.

Recent Achievements

A Lugarno tutor recently noticed a Year 12 student who'd been struggling with harder integration questions now working through them independently, often getting answers right without hints and even tackling new probability problems with more confidence than before.

In Year 10, another student who previously mixed up which operation to use in linear equations is now consistently choosing the correct method and solving for x accurately.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who used to guess when unsure has started raising their hand to ask for help as soon as they're stuck, leading to quicker understanding during sessions.

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