Flexible as this means being willing to adjust techniques and approaches to meet the learning styles of the students 3. Be patient as learn not to show annoyance in your speech or body language 4. Be good listener as learn to pick up clues in your…

Reinforcment and feedback holds highest credence as an educator. Someone who is a good tutor regardless of subject is able to touch people who are unlike them. It takes a degree of empathy to step into the mindset of other students and apply positive reinforcement to their efforts. This not only creates a strong relationship with the student's own…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them not only build the skills they need for the subject they're being tutored in, but also to build the skills to be confident of themselves within it as well. From my experience being tutored both in maths and for an instrument, that was something my tutors helped me with,…

I consider working on the clarity of concept as the most important thing. The concept once built, can be polished by recalling it several times when solving directly or indirectly related problems. Overall, the student should be able to process new information and solve the related problems on its own. My strengths are as follows: 1. The way…

Inside MontereyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Alex worked on converting fractions to decimals and practiced long division alongside percentage problems, using visual aids for tricky steps.

In Year 10, Jeyda reviewed HSC exam questions focusing on simultaneous equations and tackled worded problems from past papers to build confidence.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sarah concentrated on non-right-angled trigonometry and answered multiple-choice questions from recent HSC trial exams to sharpen her skills under timed conditions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 12 student found lengthy exam-style maths questions overwhelming, often losing track of their approach midway—"she could explain the correct method aloud but didn't apply it on paper."

In Year 11 biology, one learner hesitated to provide detailed explanations or examples, limiting depth in written responses.

For a Year 5 student, frustration surfaced quickly when unsure about answers, leading to reluctance in attempting work.

A Year 8 student consistently struggled to extract equations from worded algebra problems and rarely checked working despite prompting; mistakes lingered until addressed directly together during the session.

Recent Achievements

A Monterey tutor recently saw a big shift with Jeyda, a high school student who used to get stuck on worded maths problems—she now works through tricky questions without losing focus, carefully breaking down information instead of freezing up.

Another older student completed an entire trial exam ahead of time for the first time, targeting big-mark questions and reviewing her own mistakes as she went.

Meanwhile, in Year 4, Olivia started asking for help only when really needed and began using her calculator independently after struggling to connect classroom theory with practical problem-solving.

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 Brighton-Le-Sands Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ramsgate Public School.
