Create a space of no judgement, there are a lot of questions that students find intimidating to ask in a class environment, so as a tutor, creating a safe space for them to ask those questions is the most important goal to achieve. Not only does this allow for a further understanding of a topic, but also allows the student to be able to enjoy the…

To help a student identify which habits are beneficial and which are not, a tutor should be a great listener and observer. A tutor should relate to a student and demonstrate an understanding of the student. It is important for a tutor to make a connection with every student and create a positive and safe learning environment. A tutor should give…

I think as a tutor one of the most important things we can do for a student is be a pillar of support to guide them and follow them on their learning journey. Instead of talking to students and feeding them information its important to talk WITH students as learning is a 2 way street and both student and teacher need to have input. Learning is…

Local Reviews

My daughter Jasmine has been tutored by Thomas Ban in maths for the past few years. She recently was accepted into the gifted and talented class for year 7 at Stella Maris and also received an "Outstanding" grade (highest grade possible) for Maths this year. We just wanted to thank Thomas Ban for the wonderful work he has done with Jasmine this year. We feel that she has received these grades due to Thomas tutoring. He has challenged and pushed her to work harder and improve her maths. He is also extremely professional and courteous.

Inside North NarrabeenTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Sarah practised adding and subtracting fractions and reviewed prime factorization through targeted worksheet exercises.

In Year 8, Chloe focused on solving systems of two equations with two variables as well as proving formulas for the angles in polygons, working through example problems step-by-step.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mia explored how changing constants affects linear graphs using graphing software and also determined equations for arbitrary lines by analyzing different scenarios together.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student in Biology left a major assignment until the day before it was due, leading to "a very large amount of work to do the day before," which made the task far more stressful and rushed than necessary.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student in Mathematics often skipped writing out steps when solving algebraic equations—most errors come from working too fast and not double checking each step, as noted—which caused avoidable mistakes with units and signs.

In English, a Year 10 student let an important draft deadline creep up unnoticed, nearly missing the submission window.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in North Narrabeen recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to get stuck on algebra equations now recognising steps independently without being prompted, especially when isolating variables—something she struggled with last term.

Another high school student was proud of her most recent maths exam result: after weeks of targeted practice, she lifted her score by over 40% compared to her last test.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who often hesitated before reading clocks is now confidently telling the time on an analog clock independently and even explains how she figures it out.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Very happy - Su is a very good tutor and we're very happy with the tutoring thus far.

We're very happy with Kritika. Ella has taken to her easily and is really enjoying the work. I'm feeling very optimistic.

After the last session Mia said she was happy with Sam and didn't want to change to anyone else. Sam is very bright and Mia will never be an advanced Maths student but they seem to have worked out how to communicate and that just builds her confidence so she doesn't see a difficult question and get overwhelmed. Sam is also very punctual and communicates well with us as well. Even the dog likes him now.

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 Mona Vale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Narrabeen Sports High School.
