It's important for a tutor to be able to provide a positive and safe learning environment for their students, where the focus is upon developing useful skills and knowledge rather than being limited by specific content. My strengths would be that I am very patient, sensitive and sympathetic, and I would definitely be able to make my students feel…

Making sure the student actually understands the content being taught. A lot of students have been in that situation where a teacher may ask the student whether they understood the topic presented, and even if they didn't, they would say they did to not slow the class down or bring attention to themselves. This is what tutoring in my belief should…

Being adaptable and tailoring the teaching approach to the individual needs and learning style of the student is crucial. With that, being patient and understanding of the students struggles is vital, if they are not comfortable with making a mistake with you they won’t be able to learn from you.

Tutors should work to instil the confidence in their students so that they know they can achieve their goals, giving them motivation to study and be in charge of their learning. Tutoring is a great way for students to gain this confidence by creating the time for them to work alongside someone else one-on-one and with the same goal for them. Good…

In my opinion it is extremely important to ensure the learner knows that it is safe to not succeed at first as learning is a process full of unsuccessful attempts.This will allow students to participate fearlessly in a tutoring session. Building that trust and relationship with students is an integral part of tutoring. It will enable students to…

I consider the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to build a rapport with them so that the student feels comfortable asking questions when they do not understand topics or content, which allows the tutor to address this issue.

Local Reviews

This was very easy to set up for my child. I spoke on the phone will a very friendly and helpful consultant who was able to make a plan based on my childs needs. Our tutor is friendly and well suited to my child. My childs confidence has been restored and we have seen improvements in understanding and ability in just one month. I would highly recommend this service.

Inside Shailer ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Xavier worked on factorisation and index laws, including practice with substitution in algebraic expressions.

Year 10 student Lachlan focused on Pythagoras' theorem for both short and long sides, and also explored congruent and similar triangles through diagram-based problems.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Sienna revised multiplication tables up to x9, tackled place value activities, and practised identifying angles and shapes using naming exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, one student's algebra work was correct but often missing clear, labelled steps—"he's very good at solving questions but we're working on making sure he shows all the steps," a tutor noted. This made it harder to spot and fix small errors during review.

Meanwhile, in Year 7 probability tasks, another learner struggled to refer back to collected data when answering questions, leading to vague conclusions instead of evidence-based answers.

A Year 4 student left homework incomplete and only managed half the lesson due to fatigue, leaving gaps in multiplication skills that slowed progress on new content.

Recent Achievements

One Shailer Park tutor noted a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with algebra now solves equations independently, carefully showing all working without prompting.

A Year 8 student recently shifted from guessing on congruency problems to confidently identifying the correct type and explaining her reasoning out loud.

In primary sessions, a Year 4 learner—who once felt anxious about times tables—tackled a class quiz after extra practice at home and got noticeably more answers right, then asked for harder questions next.

Local Spots for Tutoring
