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…

1 - Be compassionate and empathic while creating a conducive and fearless classroom environment so that the students can clarify their doubts fearlessly. 2 - One of the most important things a tutor can do is recognize and respect that each student learn and retain information in his own unique way. Thus he needs to tailor his approach to each…

Being patient and having empathy is important in tutoring. This way, the tutor is able to understand what the student is feeling, and understand what is the best way to learn for them. I think my strength in tutoring is the sense of empathy that i am able to show. I believe that the tutor needs to be able to understand the student’s best…

I believe the way a concept is framed is one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student. My Year 11 and 12 Maths Teacher, Mr Rocks, would always explain to our class how different people's brains work in different ways (e.g. geometrically, analytically) so while one concept might make a lot of sense to the tutor/teacher, the way…

It is important to cater to the NEEDS of a student rather than following a outline or strict checklist. Each student is different with different requirements and areas of weakness and insecurity. It is important that students receive personalised learning experiences that benefits their situation most effectively. I like to find innovative ways to…

Inside MacquarieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emily worked on visualising numbers with creative representations to boost addition speed and practiced small operations using cards.

In Year 8, Jacob focused on turning mixed numbers into improper fractions and did quick mental calculations for addition, subtraction, and multiplication.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sophie tackled questions involving linear algebra by rearranging equations and working with fractions from her recent lessons.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3 mathematics, one student relied heavily on flashcards for times tables but found oral recall difficult; when asked "2 x 7" without visual aids, hesitation was noticeable. As a tutor noted, "she performs very well, almost instantly, when we use them, whereas if we're doing purely oral exercises, it is a bit harder."

Meanwhile, in Year 10 Maths Methods, incomplete homework (e.g., VCE 2006 Paper and CH2/CH6/CH16 questions) meant less exposure to exam-style problems and limited feedback opportunities.

In Year 12, messy note-taking left gaps in revision chapters—key ideas went unrecorded during complex differentiation practice.

Recent Achievements

One Macquarie tutor noticed a real shift with a Year 4 student who used to rely heavily on her fingers for basic maths, but after practicing verbal games and using flashcards, she now answers multiplication questions without counting out loud.

In a recent high school session, a Year 10 student who had previously struggled with index laws completed all related problems independently and even asked to try harder questions next time.

Another high schooler has started consistently finishing most of their assigned questions correctly during sessions—a big change from earlier lessons when they hesitated to attempt problems on their own.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are more than happy with Kancelot. He and Rohan seem to get along well, he is punctual and polite , and is also helping Rohan improve his maths skills.

Yes, everything is going well and Avishag is GREAT!  She is clear, direct, and no-nonsense, which is exactly what Is needs (can't get away with anything), and yet this is balanced with underlying kindness (motivated to do well).  It's not something I can describe well in words, but Isabelle definitely responds well to Avi's method.  She has improved to passing the most recent test (from massively nowhere near passing), and I can see her confidence in math has improved, too.  She was shocked to suddenly find herself helping some of her friends work through questions that they couldn't understand, and enjoyed the feeling, so that is an achievement!  Yes, she still has a long way to go, but we're off to a good start.  It's so good to have Avi reinforce methods of organization and skills that don't register for Is when I mention them, too!  We are both very, very grateful to have Avi help Is through this.

We are extremely happy with Estephanie.   She has managed to hit exactly the right note.   We are just looking for Isabel to understand some basic principles and Estaphie is managing this with patience and skill.    I cannot speak highly enough of Estaphanie.

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 Belconnen Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Macquarie Primary School.
