Software Dev Tutor Northbridge, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be there for them. If a tutor chooses only to communicate with a student within the designated hour-long session, there is a good chance questions will be forgotten before the next session and eventually left unanswered. This is why a clear and uninterrupted communication line is valuable…

Software Dev Tutor Willoughby, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is help them in any way they can, this does not only apply in an academic sense but also in aspects of the students life (eg. dealing with stress, etc.) I can easily explain harder concepts in simpler terms, making it less intimidating for students when encountering new topics. Furthermore, my…

To cultivate students' ability to draw inferences from others, so that they can complete the content taught by themselves without the help of a tutor, which can help them truly grow. As a USYD graduate of computer science and data science (Bachelor Honours), I am patient and enthusiastic. Willing to take the initiative to identify the student's…

I believe my most important role as a tutor is provide a supportive environment in a way that it is open to a variety of personalities and ways of thinking. It is only if the student is comfortable that the student and tutor can work cooperatively which will allow for the student to learn. The tutor should also attempt to understand the student.…

To try and understand the student and not judge them but instead work with them to gain a better understanding of the subject. I am good at empathizing with students and figuring out what they don't understand in the problem. Then breaking down what they don't understand into more digestible…

As a tutor, I firmly believe in the profound impact that effective education can have on a student's life. Drawing from my experience in teaching as a CSR activity, I recognize several essential aspects that I consider crucial in nurturing a student's growth and learning journey. 1. Fostering Understanding: One of the most important things I…

I believe that it's a tutor's purpose is to push the student at a pace that they're capable of achieving regardless of what that level is. A student can only work to the best of their capacity and achieving this efficiency is the advantaged of personalised education. With younger especially clients in grades 4 and below, I believe it's essential…

Inside PaddingtonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Michael reviewed geometric reasoning and proofs, including congruency reasoning, then tackled challenging exam-style questions on factorisation and expanding.

Year 10 Maddison worked through trigonometry problems involving right-angled triangles and bearings, then revised theoretical versus experimental probability and relative frequency.

Meanwhile, Year 11 Sarah focused on indices and laws of exponents before moving on to logarithms and exponential equations in preparation for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student repeatedly avoided writing out working in geometry, relying on mental calculation and causing missed steps—he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors.

For a Year 11 exam, another student struggled with time management and stopped short of fully simplifying answers when under pressure.

In Year 7 maths, one student left several division problems blank due to low confidence rather than lack of skill; reluctance to attempt questions was common unless total understanding was felt.

These habits led to unfinished tests or repeated mistakes that could have been caught with clearer layout and step-by-step checking.

Recent Achievements

A Paddington tutor noticed Ruby, a high school student, is now tackling simultaneous equations independently—she confidently uses substitution and addition methods to find unknowns, whereas earlier she'd often hesitate or wait for hints.

In another recent session, Michael has started explaining his reasoning out loud when working through tricky maths proofs; previously he'd skip steps in his working, but now details every stage which is leading to fewer mistakes on assessments.

Meanwhile, Henry (Year 6) has begun reading worded problems aloud himself before starting calculations—this new habit means he's catching key information he used to miss.
