The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be a kind, and patient individual. So often people don’t want to ask for help especially students since they fear being judged or that their question won’t get answered. This is why I think being someone your student can trust is very important in helping them learn. Patient, good…

I always find people learn best when they're comfortable and truly believe they can master the concept. Therefore, I would say the most important thing for a tutor is to build a mutual respect with their student. From there encouragement, communication, and teaching is much easier. Although I have a good knowledge off mathematics and the sciences,…

The most important thing for a tutor is to increase the confidence of the students. As I have seen from the past experiences, most of the students have the ability to score good grades but due to the lack of confidence in the answer, they tend to doubt themselves and mess things up in the exam. Hence boosting the student's confidence while…

According to me, the most difficult part of life is being a student. Because there is a strict rule that students must pass all the subjects even when they are already mastered their favorite subject of study. But they lose their confidence and focus in their mastered subjects and they get lower grades. But the most important thing is that there…

The most important quality that a tutor needs is patience. It is crucial that a tutor takes their time to work out what their student's strengths and weaknesses are, so they can help the student improve. Then, they need to be ready to answer the students' questions as many times as they need to. They also need to articulate their knowledge in a…

Make them believe in themselves is the first thing that pops into my mind.

That, to me, is the most important thing. The greatest strength my students have commented on is my ability…

Be patient. Tutors cannot expect students to understand or get the question right the first time. It is important for tutors to understand where the student went wrong and to slowly and easily correct them by following the question. Once they grasped an understanding, tutors should give the student similar questions to practice so they are…

Personally, a tutor is someone outside of school who the student can rely on for their studies. Students show their vulnerability here so that tutor can build them to be strong at school.

Inside MangertonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Isla focused on simplifying fractions and using the correct order of operations, also practicing how to convert numbers to percentages.

For Year 11, Noah worked through statistics concepts including calculating mean and standard deviation, applying these to his homework tasks.

In Year 12, Natalia reviewed function topics by defining domain and range and practiced transformation questions from her Math syllabus for deeper understanding.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a student preparing for an upcoming exam repeatedly reviewed solved questions but avoided practicing them independently; as a tutor noted, "he needs to review the solutions and practice to make progress."

Meanwhile, in Year 11 Mathematics, another student showed hesitancy tackling new problems without guidance, preferring familiar examples instead of attempting similar questions alone—this limited deeper understanding before assessments.

In a primary context (Year 4), one learner struggled to recall multiplication strategies unless she practiced immediately after sessions, leading to gaps by the following week. Missed opportunities for solo revision or delayed follow-up meant uncertainty lingered during quizzes.

Recent Achievements

One Mangerton tutor noticed a real shift with Natalia in Year 10: after previously getting stuck on algebra, she now tackles problems independently and sticks with them until solved.

In a recent high school session, Zane arrived having worked through Chapter 2 by himself—he brought specific questions to discuss, showing new initiative instead of waiting passively for help.

Meanwhile, during a primary-level lesson, Noah was able to complete the "Test Yourself" section with just some guidance, rather than needing step-by-step prompting.

At the end of his session, Zane asked every question he'd prepared and understood each answer fully.

My daughter and I are both very happy with Thibault. She has only had one session with him but said he was good at explaining and he was able to answer her questions. He was also encouraging, punctual and very polite. We are very happy to continue with him.

I am more than happy with Daniella. She is a lovely girl and Emma is getting a lot out of her lessons.

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 Mobile Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like The Illawarra Grammar School.
