A tutor is there not only to facilitate a student's learning of the curriculum knowledge but also to foster critical thinking skills transferable to other aspects of their education. Knowing that every student learns differently, I cater to the student's individual needs and work with them to figure out the most effective learning strategies. I do…

Having both been the tutee and the tutor, I believe that it is imperative that a tutor is supportive of the student and caters their teaching to the student's specific needs. Tutoring is only truly effective when the student is completely engaged with the tutor and I believe that this can only happen when the student believes that they are in an…

Someone once told me a great teacher is not a messiah but a guide. As a tutor, I do not gift my mentees the treasure of knowledge but rather act as a guide toward achieving them.

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to establish their confidence, give them the attention, teach the most efficient strategies to succeed in the exam with the least lessons. Students can't succeed in their exam is because there are so-called 'good students' in their class, for multiple reasons, their teachers don't actually…

I think a tutor should be capable of answering any questions discussing any uncertainties that a student may have. These should be explained clearly and if the student does not understand initially, the tutor should continue to explain in alternate ways (e.g. rewording sentences and visual aids such as diagrams) until the student understands.

I believe that one of the most effective parts of tutoring is the repetition of concepts from both the school and the tutor, which helps drill in the point. It's easy to gloss over something if it's only taught once (i.e. just schoolwork), but if it crops up again and again (i.e. from schoolwork + tutoring + homework), then the concept sticks much…

A good tutor should help their student develop a love for what they are learning.

This starts with the tutor being passionate about the content they are teaching and being determined to push the student…

Local Reviews
Inside SeaforthTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 6 student Lilly focused on improving her recall and speed with times tables, especially the 4s and 12s, using interactive games and practical strategies.
In Year 9, Amelie worked through simplifying, multiplying, dividing, and rationalising surds, as well as applying volume formulas to compound shapes—sometimes drawing diagrams to visualise problems.
Meanwhile, Jerry in Year 8 tackled linear relationships by practising how to find the equation of a straight line from a table of values and reviewing homework on converting between percentages, decimals, and fractions.
Recent Challenges
In Year 8 Mathematics, one student consistently lost marks in exams by not showing full working for algebra and geometry questions—"he lost a lot of marks in his exam as he did not show his working out," a tutor noted.
In another instance, a senior Physics student's written layout was flagged: "We will continue to practice good setting out so it becomes a habit."
For HSC-level Maths, one learner repeatedly forgot to bring essential materials like notes, worksheets, or calculators to lessons, which limited hands-on revision and practice. These patterns often left students retracing steps or missing feedback opportunities during crucial assessments.
Recent Achievements
A tutor in Seaforth noticed that Jaida, a Year 11 student, has started questioning the strategies behind tricky exam problems instead of just following steps—showing she now understands not just how but why solutions work.
Jerry, in Year 8, recently shifted from rushing through algebra to carefully setting out his working and double-checking each answer, a big change from his earlier mistakes due to skipped steps.
Meanwhile, Clara (Year 12) has begun tackling past exam papers independently and now talks through her approach aloud when stuck, rather than quietly giving up or waiting for answers.
