To make complex problems easier for the students to learn. Which means being effective and time-efficient. Also, a tutor must make learning fun rather boring, so the student will gain most or everything about what you have taught them. I think I am able to provide my ways of solving problems which the students might not have. I have pieces of…

I think that one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to give them confidence in their own abilities, as this empowers them to develop their own skills on their own and, Some of my strengths as a tutor is my patience, I am quite willing to explain a concept to a student as many times as necessary and can adapt to a specific…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their students is to help them build their confidence whilst they learn new concepts.

Teach the student how to learn. Each student has the capability to learn the HSC curriculum at a high level but does not know how to approach it effectively.

Rather than 'how to answer questions', the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them how to think to solve problems. In a real-world workplace, problem solving is a crucial skill as it creates meaningful solutions to issues. This is why teaching maths should go beyond drilling procedures, formulas and theorems into a…

Ultimately, I think a good tutor teaches the student skills that they can utilize in their general learning and subject specific study. A tutor should be in a position to be a mentor to the student and share their experience in relation to studying their subject. This can help the student overcome what can initially be a daunting task as it is a…

Nick explains the concepts well and has also given him extra work to help on the things he needs to practice.
Mara, Mosman

Inside MosmanTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Zara worked through volume and unit conversions, practising with real-world measurement examples.

In Year 9, Sam tackled expanding polynomials and reducing fractions step-by-step using practice questions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Olivia focused on analysing the function domain and range as well as applying function notation to problem-solving exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 5 English, one student avoided answering addition questions that involved carrying numbers and chose only easier homework problems, as a tutor noted: "She completed long addition questions that did not need carrying."

In Year 7 Maths, another student repeatedly guessed answers and waited for feedback instead of showing his own working, leading to less independent problem-solving.

A Year 10 student left assigned pre-reading for an English play unfinished, which meant class time was spent explaining context rather than tackling questions.

When homework or in-class note-taking is skipped or incomplete, valuable practice and test preparation opportunities are lost.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Mosman noted that one high school student, Lachy, has become much more proactive about his learning—he now arrives well prepared for English sessions and is able to answer most questions independently, a shift from previous lessons where he relied more on guidance.

Another older student, Ollie, recently completed over 90% of a mock maths test quickly and correctly after showing much sharper recall of both new and old concepts; previously, he struggled with formula recollection under pressure.

Meanwhile, in a younger session, Theo stopped guessing at spelling tasks and instead began checking for the "ty" ending in number words—a change from earlier lessons when he'd give up or guess randomly.

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 Mosman Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mosman High School.
