The most important things a tutor can do is ensure you know their problem or where they may need help and know how you can help them to understand the content. Another important thing that can be done for the student is to ensure that they become comfortable not only with the tutor but also amongst their teacher and fellow students. Understanding…

I believe the most important aspect is making the student feel comfortable and confident. Making sure they understand fundamental concepts and reiterating important ideas is key to ensuring this, rather than rushing through a set curriculum. Once a student is comfortable and confident in their ability, their results will begin to improve, from my…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them how to approach learning in a way that is self sufficient. Understanding content is important for the time, but ultimately, a tutor should leave the student with the skills to know how to understand content when the tutor is no longer there. I am patient, persistent and…

To me, what tutors can do most effectively for students is to help them achieve their learning outcomes at the end of each lesson. There is a specific need for us to teach to the student's strengths while minimizing the student's weaknesses. With regards to tutoring, we are solely responsible for setting up a teaching method to assist the student…

I think the most important things a tutor can do for a student is providing them with support in different aspects not just academically. I think it’s extremely important for the student to like and have confidence in what they are doing and stay curious for what they are about to learn. That’s why I think a tutor’s support can provide some…

In my personal opinion, I believe a game-changer for students is to have a tutor who helps build their confidence. Rather than only imparting knowledge, a tutor should foster a learning atmosphere that makes students comfortable to ask questions, make mistakes and even question the knowledge of the tutor. My strengths as a tutor include the…

In addition, it is professional to understand each student's ability, needs and situation. Create a welcoming atmosphere for students to approach. Encourage students to go forward by themselves.

In my opinion, a tutor is someone whose aim is to help a student in all the ways they can. They not only provide academic support through tutorials, guide practices questions and reviews but also possibly even more importantly, give the student the confidence to believe in themselves. This is done through nurturing a safe and judgement free…

A tutor has to be understanding and respectful to the student that they are teaching, they need to realise that these individuals don't have the same level of knowledge as them at the time, so they need time to learn and understand difficult concepts and that require more explanation. The key is to build a strong healthy and friendly relationship…

In my point of view, students and tutors must be like a friends so that tutor can teach and student can learn easily. Similarly, every tutor needs to be prepared before they enter in classroom to teach because it will help tutors to express their views in such a way that students can learn and understand easily.

Keep the student comfortable by making sure they are on track and giving another perspective to view a particular question.

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to ask them for constant feedback/questions. Some students are hesitant to ask questions when they are confused, which can easily lead to them not understanding content. Hence, it is important as a tutor to actively make sure that your student actually understands what you are teaching. As a…

Inside Picnic PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sarah focused on timestables (4s and 6s) and explored nets of 3D shapes, while also practising time reading in 15-minute intervals.

Year 6 student Max worked through decimal addition and subtraction as well as solving word problems involving fractions, using diagrams to clarify concepts.

For Year 7, Olivia tackled surface area calculations for cubes and rectangular prisms and developed strategies for working backwards in multi-step word problems.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, calculator over-reliance was noted during BODMAS and surface area work—"needs to double-check inputs on the calculator before giving answers"—which led to avoidable slip-ups when transferring values.

A Year 6 student repeatedly skipped writing out working in decimal subtraction, instead changing numbers mentally; this made it harder to spot where borrowing had been missed.

In Year 10 algebra, forgetting to label units for volume and perimeter left final answers incomplete, despite correct calculations.

Motivation dips after mistakes also affected one Year 7's focus during times tables drills, resulting in slow session starts and less verbal engagement.

Recent Achievements

One Picnic Point tutor noticed a big change with a Year 9 student who used to freeze up on worded maths problems; now she tackles multi-step questions independently. In Year 11, another student struggled with BODMAS and often made order-of-operations mistakes, but last week he referred to his operation list without prompting and solved equations correctly.

A younger student in Year 5 who'd always guessed at analogue clock times can now read the minute hand accurately—she read several different times out loud without hesitation during their session.

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 Panania Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Picnic Point Public School.
