Modern History Tutor The Ponds, NSW
Encouraging them and reminding them that their school marks are not what entirely defines them as a good student. On top of providing them with academic support and guidance that they can apply to other fields. For instance, how to structure an exemplar essay or simply how to construct a study timetable. Finding unique ways to interpret notes and…

Modern History Tutor Plumpton, NSW
Identifying a student's weaknesses and strengths not only in a subject but in their general approach to life is very important. Honing strengths and working on weaknesses will allow tutors to tap into a student's potential. Deeply considering how and why a student is performing the way they are is also very important and allows changes to be made.…

Modern History Tutor Dean Park, NSW
My belief is that the most important things a tutor can do for a student is remain resilient, provide constant affirmation and teach in a way that is compatible with their learning style. I believe self-esteem and encouragement are two of the most important aspects of learning within a student, and in order for them to perform to the best of their…

Modern History Tutor Beaumont Hills, NSW
The most important things tutors can do is to be enthusiastic and engaging about the subject their teaching their student because this then allows students to believe too, that the subject they're learning is not boring or bad. Moreover, tutors must have confidence in their student in succeeding and doing well, in which the Pygmalion effect proves…

Modern History Tutor Mount Druitt, NSW
One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is harness empathy, patience, and and understand the needs of that student. The curriculum may be straightforward but every individual have their own way of absorbing information and learning. It is important to keep the student engaged in the lesson and a tutor must also have the…

Inside RiverstoneTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Charlize practised comparing fractions with different denominators and used pie graphs to visualise them, then worked on long division problems using the HMS-down method.

In Year 10, Justine focused on circle geometry exam questions, including applying angle properties in diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Ivanna tackled inverse and composite functions from chapters 4I and 4J, building fluency with function operations and notation.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student's lesson revealed a key process gap: he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors, making it hard to spot mistakes until late.

In Year 12 probability, a student left boxes empty when unsure, rather than attempting partial answers or using feedback to guide their thinking.

One primary student hesitated to ask for help with spelling rules and vowel placements, leading to repeated errors on writing tasks.

Missed homework in senior mathematics meant concepts like the triangle inequality and Kruskal's algorithm faded between lessons, forcing time to be spent reteaching instead of moving forward.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Riverstone noticed a Year 11 student who used to hesitate with new maths concepts now independently applies the point-gradient formula and can explain her reasoning for both domain and range questions, even asking follow-up questions when stuck.

Another high schooler has started double-checking answers on their own and will pause the lesson to clarify anything unclear, rather than quietly guessing like before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who once struggled with multiplication tables now remembers strategies between lessons—she was able to recall the 4 times table from memory after practice without needing prompts.

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 Vinegar Hill Memorial Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Riverstone Public School.
