The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to help them learn whatever they want to learn, even if they have a lot of difficulty understanding it. The first and most important thing would be the fact that I myself was a school student not long ago, and am a university student still, so I would understand what my…

Throughout my educational experience in both high school and university, I have grown to understand the most important aspects of learning and tutoring. These include effective engagement, tailored instruction/teaching, and being a source of motivation. Without these three crucial aspects, a tutor loses their ability to constructively teach and…

Being flexible for the student, both in time and place for tutoring and more importantly with the content. A tutor should listen to a students needs, going through at a challenging but comfortable pace and willing to spend for time on certain topics students are struggling with. I have a strong maths foundation which allows me to potentially…

I think it is important that a tutor be able to explain a concept in a way that the student can understand, internalise and remember, while tapping into their passion for the subject, rather than strictly and laboriously forcing them to rote-learn concepts (with the exception of fairly simple ideas like times tables of course) I think my strengths…

The most important things are studying with students together and help them by giving a hint, not a solution. This is because learners can recognise what the student's are struggling as if they had the same problems and can help them effectively. Additionaly, if we give just effective hints to them, they can progress the problem and they can…

A tutor influences a student in many ways. He or she contributes a lot to the personality of a student. The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to build confidence. And I believe confidence is something that is essential throughout a persons life. It's the confidence that makes one believe that they could do things…

Overall, hardwork and course plan can pave the way to a successful tutor. I am easy going, hardworking, honest and eager to learn new methods. As a tutor, my first approach is to prepare…

As a tutor, I think the most important thing that a tutor could do for a student is making the student feel comfortable first. Based on my opinion, students will not study efficiently if you put too much pressure on them. So I would try to be as friendly as possible so that they can ask me questions easily. I think both party would enjoy to do…

I believe that the one of the most important things a tutor can do is to help a student truly realise their academic potential, especially since the needs of one student may be overlooked in a classroom setting. It is also important, however, to help inspire confidence in the subject, and hopefully a passion, so that they continue to succeed…

A tutor can make a student love the subject he/she hates. The most important thing for a tutor is to understand the student, his/her interests, aptitude, and what he/she is inclined towards. If you have a basic idea of the student mindset you can develop techniques to make them understand the subject in a way they don't find it hard. Gamification…

I think the most important thing is to teach them how to think in the correct way. For physics and science, understanding is much more important than remembering. Therefore, teaching them to think by themselves is very important for their future academic success. Also, personal interest is another important factor. Teachers should cultivate the…

More important than the content is the environment a tutor can create. By reciting the book's content, I might be able to help the student pass their grade. However, by making the student get good at learning and understanding abstract concepts, one makes them capable of tackling any subject. This is the most importat thing a tutor can do for a…

I'd say one of the key things is creating a comfortable space where students feel free to ask questions without hesitation. Building that trust is like laying down a solid foundation. I think instilling a genuine curiosity and love for the subject goes a long way. It's not just about acing tests; it's about fostering a relationship with the…

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.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Bre says she is happy with Ameya. He explains things well and ensures she understands things before moving on. Only week 3 but all good so far.

Hayden is starting to feel more confident with his maths, so we think 10 weeks more tutoring should cover all bases for now, and a few weeks towards the end of the school before the final exams should do wonders for his results. Thankyou.....

We are really happy with Jarryd, we realise it is going to take time and we are prepared to do that for Thomas. Thomas is really comfortable with Jarryd and this helps. Wish we had done this earlier. Thanks for the enquiry.

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 Kingston Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Narrabundah Early Childhood School.
