Tutor Lavender Bay, NSW
My biggest strength is breaking down complex problems into simple, manageable steps that make sense to students. I’m patient, encouraging, and always start from what the student already understands. I also focus on developing problem-solving skills instead of just giving answers. With over two years of tutoring experience in Iran, as well as…

For me, the most important thing a tutor can do is help the student feel more confident — not just with the subject, but in themselves. I think we sometimes forget how big of a difference it makes when someone believes they can actually do it. I really try to celebrate the small wins — whether they’ve just understood a tough concept or even…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student, apart from obvious educational improvements, is to provide a non-judgemental support network as well as cultivating a growth mindset for the student to see more rapid results and instill within them a positive outlook on learning. A tutor's availability and connection to the student should…

I believe that the tutor shouldn't be the one always in control and leading the session. Especially in early sessions, I believe the tutor should encourage the student to ask many questions of them, to grasp what they know and how they interpret different topics. Tutoring almost becomes useless if the tutor is the one constantly talking because…

The most important thing a tutor is about understanding as each student is different in learning and understanding the concepts. A lot of the times one explanation or a specific way won't always help a student so the ability to explain it in a different way for the student's understanding helps immensely and shows that the tutor really knows his…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student go beyond just teaching content. A tutor should help a child feel capable--- when students believe in themselves, everything else becomes easier. It's important to break concepts down simply, meet students where they are, and help them move forward step by step without overwhelm.…

The clever tutor can know whether the student understands the information or not. He should get that without waiting for the student to tell him. As a result, he should redeliver the information but in a new way. I usually link between the theory and its application. I am interested in finding new interactive tutoring strategies. I try to deliver…

Inside Potts PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Taiki focused on reading comprehension and phonics by working through 'The Dragon,' tackling unfamiliar words using sound-out strategies, and then writing sentences with new vocabulary.

For Year 10, Maddison practised trigonometry skills—solving right-angled triangles including angles of elevation and depression—and moved onto bearings problems using extension exercises from class.

In Year 11, Sophie revised theoretical versus experimental probability as well as relative frequency questions in preparation for her upcoming exam.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, one student consistently crossed out mistakes in their notes rather than leaving visible corrections, which made it harder to track where errors occurred and slowed review.

In a Year 10 probability lesson, messy written work meant "the working was too hard to read back on," making it difficult to check answers or revisit solutions later.

A senior English student preparing an assignment avoided linking points back to the topic sentence and left structure incomplete, reflecting reluctance to engage with feedback about argument clarity.

For one junior primary learner, forgetting home reading slowed progress with unfamiliar words and sounds.

Recent Achievements

One Potts Point tutor noticed a Year 10 student who, after weeks of hesitancy, now comes prepared with her own list of problem areas—last session, she worked through bearings and probability questions on her own initiative.

Another high school student, Martina, used to rely heavily on worked examples but recently solved algebraic fraction problems independently without looking back at notes—a clear shift towards independence.

In Year 3 English, a student who struggled with past tense verbs is now confidently creating his own sentences using new spelling words and correctly adding '-ed' endings when prompted.

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 Kings Cross Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Vincent's College.
