The most important aspect about tutoring is to be able to assess the ability of the students and tune the tutoring method accordingly. While some students can understand pretty quickly, there are students who require repeated teaching. The ultimate objective is to meet the expectations of students and parents. 1.

The most important thing for a chemistry tutor is to understand their student. All students have different strengths and weaknesses, and it is the responsibility of the tutor to understand their student as an individual in order to tutor in a way that is the most effective for a student to improve. For example, one of my students in the past…

The most important thing a chemistry tutor can do for a student is not only boost their confidence in a subject, but also their enthusiasm for the subject. Giving students who are bored with the content as they find it too easy more difficult problems peaks their interest, as I have seen in the past. Students who are struggling and as a result…

I believe I am well-versed in a…

I feel that a chemistry tutor can basically change a student's perception to a particular subject. A tutor has the power to build the foundations of a subject in a simplified and innovative way such that it is comprehended easily by the students. When it comes to teaching new concepts, I seldom go by the book. I think it is more important to give…

In my perspective mathematics is all about practice, understanding concepts and master them. Tutor's job is to make students understand the concepts but at the same time, they should not spoon feed them by constraining them to certain important questions only! Student should be able to do all types of questions and apply the concepts in daily life…

The tutor must be able to eliminate every question or doubt a student has on a subject or concept and enable the student to comprehend the information not just for scoring grades, but, for understanding and using the information in any scenario which requires it. Hence, the tutor must be able to inculcate this idea in the student and facilitate…

I see students as a clay model, which consists of different minerals and when it is subjected to appropriate pressure and temperature together with proper guidance and methods, it converts into a masterpiece ceramic.

I think the most important things a chemistry tutor can do is to make the content understandable rather than just helping to memorise it. But also to normalise mistakes and to assert the importance of educated guessing. Any student can learn faster by giving something a go rather than waiting until they are certain.

The most important thing I can do for a student is fill in the gaps that the teacher can't. Teachers aren't able to modify the way they teach for every individual student, as a tutor I can do that. I am good at helping people understand concepts that are difficult to understand. I love learning and like to share my enthusiasm with other people.…

I can't express how awesome Peter was, keeping stress levels down, keeping focus and really drilling down in problem areas to help reinforce understanding. Peter was great with and for my son.

Inside NarrabundahTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Ari focused on statistics, working through mean, median, mode, and box-and-whisker plots, then practiced creating and interpreting pie graphs and describing theoretical probability.

Year 8 student Muhammad concentrated on English skills by developing a collaborative crime fiction podcast assignment—profiling characters and drafting scenes—and also read "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas," answering comprehension questions and exploring vocabulary.

For primary support, Year 3 student Josh completed an English assessment covering reading comprehension and did a mini NAPLAN math test to check foundational numeracy skills.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 English, one student forgot to bring his homework for the week, which limited his ability to review and apply feedback in session.

For a Year 9 Ancient History essay, another student deleted his draft after a last-minute format change but did not send a new version for feedback—he may have been pressed for time or reluctant to share, as noted.

In Year 7 Mathematics, a student struggled with showing working on linear graph problems, making it difficult to identify where misunderstandings occurred.

Meanwhile, a senior English student needed more organized planning before exams rather than relying on ad-hoc preparation.

Recent Achievements

One Narrabundah tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who previously hesitated to ask questions now proactively requests clarification when stuck, especially during work on linear equations—marking a big shift from guessing through problems in silence.

In Year 11 English, another student took the initiative to revise his thesis statement after realising it didn't quite fit the essay prompt, making it clearer and more concise without prompting.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who struggled with open-ended writing tasks has begun finding his own words for responses when given scaffolded support, rather than waiting for suggestions.
