As a tutor, it is important that you pass on the right knowledge to the student. Make them think about things by themselves instead of giving them straight away. A tutor, shouldn't discourage students if they ask a dumb question, they should resolve all their queries with a good understanding. A tutor's job is to support a student and be curious…

To me, the most essential role a tutor can fulfill is that of an enabler and empowerer. I believe a tutor's primary goal should be to provide students with a strong foundation of knowledge and a resilient problem-solving framework, not only to tackle academic challenges but also to navigate any obstacle life may present. An empowering tutor equips…

I am of the opinion that the most important things for tutors to do is to be patient and make the student feel comfortable. It is perfectly normal not to understand or struggle with ideas that are taught in class immediately and students should feel as though they aren't getting judged because of it. Tutors are their to help and improve their…

Local Reviews

We really cannot speak highly enough of Conaire. He is communicative, polite, always on time, and most importantly, highly competent with maths. From their first meeting, Tim has enjoyed and benefited greatly from his tutoring and encouragement. On a scale of 1 to 10, Conaire rates a 10+ (with no exaggeration at all).

Inside Milsons PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Xander worked on telling time to the quarter hour using an analog clock and practiced multiplication facts through games for engagement.

Year 8 student Soraya focused on trigonometric ratios and geometry, using diagrams to reinforce understanding of angles and side relationships in triangles.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Charlotte reviewed linear algebra concepts and networks in preparation for upcoming assessments, including targeted revision on trigonometry applications.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student needed to check notes repeatedly for trigonometric ratios, revealing over-reliance on reference material rather than building recall—this slowed progress during problem-solving.

"She sometimes hesitated to attempt algebraic problems, preferring decimals," a tutor noted of a Year 9 lesson, showing avoidance of unfamiliar techniques instead of engaging with the challenge.

Meanwhile, in Year 8, incomplete or missing revision work made it hard to pinpoint exact gaps after a recent linear topic; no written exercises were shown when asked.

In each case, uncertainty or avoidance meant time was spent circling basics rather than pushing forward into deeper understanding.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Milsons Point recently saw Charlie, a Year 11 student, complete an entire past paper with barely any need to check her notes—she's now highlighting key formulas independently and tackling exam-style questions solo.

In Year 8, Soraya has started explaining her problem-solving process out loud after once keeping quiet; she even finds multiple ways to answer tricky geometry problems without waiting for prompts.

Meanwhile, Xander in Year 3 finally cracked number sentences this week after struggling last session, solving each one on his own and grinning as he got them all right.
