Students are different from each other, some are fast learner while others are the opposite. As a tutor, I think its important to deliver a lesson that is easy to comprehend regardless of how academic the students are. I am more to lean to visual than texts.

Most important thing would be to know what the goal of the student is and help them and support them in achieving their goal in a friendly environment.

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is be patient and listen to what they aren't understanding. Also to be able to identify that is a student isn't understanding a concept then the tutor needs to be able to recognise this and try to explain it to them in a different way. I think my strengths as a tutor are that I am a very…

Encouragement is the most important quality a tutor should have.

A tutor should firstly be encouraging; to be more confident in their studies, for them to work hard and try their best, and to inspire a love of learning. Secondly, it is imperative to be understanding. Every student is unique, with varying goals, learning styles, and abilities, so learning should be tailored to each individual to ensure every…

The most important thing that a tutor can do for a student is to help them see the subject in the light that they do and nurture their interest in it.

Local Reviews

Only 3 sessions in but what a difference my son who was adamant he didn't want to do it now loves it and is so much more confident in class and doing homework. His homework results were always 55 percent and below now 90 and above. One happy parent and 15 year old! He said it's heaps easier one on one and how it's explained. I'm impressed.

Inside NeerabupTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Islay revised simple probability exercises and calculating probability as decimals, and also completed a Year 9 statistics test focusing on mean, mode, median, and range.

For Year 9, Aiden worked through measurement problems involving volume and surface area of cuboids and cubes as well as problem solving with Venn diagrams in probability.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex focused on film techniques—exploring SWAT codes such as lighting and camera angles—and analyzed how these technical features create different moods in horror and romantic genres.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student found it difficult to maintain focus during longer revision sessions, especially when covering familiar content; "he wanted to move on before finishing the task," noted a tutor, which left key skills under-practiced.

In Year 11 English, another hesitated to start creative writing tasks without reassurance, struggling with self-confidence and idea planning—this made first drafts slow and fragmented.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student repeatedly left homework incomplete and needed reminders to practice times tables between lessons. These patterns led to missed consolidation opportunities and growing frustration when recalling information in class or assessments.

Recent Achievements

One Neerabup tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to struggle explaining her maths methods; now she confidently talks through each step and identifies her own mistakes without prompting.

Another high school learner, previously hesitant to ask for help, started speaking up when stuck on graphing "rise over run," leading to much faster progress in plotting points correctly.

In a recent primary session, a Year 4 student who'd always guessed at reading tricky words now pauses to sound them out carefully before moving on—something she avoided before—and finished the lesson by reading an entire short passage aloud.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

My Granddaughter, Ava, is very comfortable & happy with her tutor, Mihika. Also, myself & Avas Mother are happy with Mihikas cheerful, pleasant manner & punctuality. I will be continuing the tutor lessons as we're very happy with Mihika & some improvement with Ava so far.

Yes - Bailey is happy with Reshmi. She's good at explaining how he should be breaking down the question in order to get the answer for the problem. As he only has less than 2 months before the HSC they've been working on a plan to get Bailey to work on and improve his maths.

We are very happy with Sheetal. Timothy is making great progress and we are happy to continue. We will have Tim do his Navy test in a few weeks and if we need to do a bridging course we will ask Sheetal to tutor him with that as well.

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 Clarkson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Joseph Banks Secondary College.
