I believe that the purpose of tutoring is not just to make the student better at a given subject (although of course that too is important) but rather to teach them the skills that they need to approach problems in all of their subjects and even beyond school to life as a whole. The ability to look at a maths problem and know the correct formula…

One of the most important things a tutor can do is instil a sense of passion for the subject. The student should feel comfortable going to class and doing the homework afterwards. The tutor should be assisting and looking out for concepts and gaps that the student might have and fill these gaps. On top of this, I want to be able to change a…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is giving them confidence and equipping them with skills to find solutions on their own. Rather than simply copying a tutor's methods or solutions, it is essential that a student develops the skills to confidently approach new issues they could be faced with. One strength of mine is that I am…

Rather than making the subject more troublesome for the student, a tutor must help them realize how easily the same could be studied using small tips and making it more enjoyable. Helping out with their doubts, providing sufficient extra materials, and small tips to remember among others, are important things that a tutor could help with.…

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.

The biggest part of tutoring is adjusting to the various communication styles of each student, when students rely on visuals to understand a topic, the tutor needs to present graphs or sketches to exemplify formulas in a more visual manner when students prefer to learn using examples the topic needs to be translated into more tangible manners.…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to develop their ability to learn and think independently. One of my favourite quotes is "If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime." Teaching students how to learn not only helps them to do well in their exams, but…

As said earlier, a tutor is not someone with a "rat-race" kind of approach to learning with zero engaging feats. The most important thing is being keen on motivation. Since I plan teaching students from a primary to higher level each level would require motivation in a very different way. For e.g. engaging primary level students with a minor…

The two most important things a tutor can do for a student in my view are (1) adapt to that particular student and (2) encourage and motivate the student along the way. Indeed, without motivation, tutoring is a fairly pointless exercise. My strengths as a student are (1) my ability to make complex concepts, especially in maths, tangible to…

Helping students understand the importance of learning is the main key. Students need to learn the importance of an educational journey.

I see no student a failure, and I will take their failure as my own. The most quintessential thing any tutor can do is adapt to the student's way of thinking and guide them to success.

The most important thing is to prepare fully for each lesson. I believe that both the student's and the tutor's time are precious. If a session is not well planned and structured, students are likely to walk away confused but unlikely to seek further clarification. Although the teacher might have saved planning time, they have restrained students…

Local Reviews

Samuel was very good.
Henry

Inside LynehamTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Amity worked on multiplication and addition strategies to build number fluency.

In Year 8, Lara reviewed introductory algebra, focusing on applying variables in worded problems, and tackled a multi-step trigonometry question involving two triangles from her previous exam.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Owen focused on solving simultaneous equations using elimination and substitution methods, then applied these skills to contextual word problems for extra practice.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student often relied on having notes or solution formulas at hand, especially when working through algebraic problems—"needs to write working out down," a tutor observed after he skipped showing steps in x + x = 6. This meant confusion lingered between addition and multiplication of unknowns.

In Year 8 Science, one student did not bring a notebook for class notes, which led to trouble recalling key facts during revision.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner hesitated to attempt fraction questions without prompting, tending to give up quickly if unsure—confidence slipped away as blank space grew on the page.

Recent Achievements

One Lyneham tutor noticed a big shift in Kenzie, a Year 10 student, who used to hesitate with complex equations—now she pushes through tough inequality questions and figures out most mistakes on her own before the tutor steps in.

In senior high school, Owen recently made a breakthrough connecting math derivations to his physics experiments; after struggling to turn raw results into meaningful data last term, he now confidently sets up his lab reports independently.

For Year 4, Elijah managed to master telling time on analogue clocks by the end of one session—a concept he'd previously found confusing. He mastered this skill in one session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We have no doubt the extra tutoring with Mina got Jamison over the line for a solid band 6.

Tahlia and Jonah are getting along very well so far and Tahlia appears to be taking on board the information that Jonah is giving her. Tahlia is enjoying her tutoring sessions and it doesn't feel like an hour to her.

Dorcas is a very patient tutor, she has lots of experience and is good with children. She is willing to go the extra mile and my son has been improving under her guidance.

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 Dickson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Brindabella Christian College.
