Understanding the students learning methods and delivering lessons that accommodate the student's and parents' needs is the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. I believe that is most important for the student to feel comfortable and confident with the content as well as the tutor. Hence, the basic foundation of trust and support…

I believe one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is serve as a secondary teacher/mentor to a school teacher. As school teachers have to focus on a large class (usually around 30 students), they are unable to address the needs of each student. As each student has their own struggles and needs, an exterior tutor provides…

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is listen to what they are asking, and targeting their weak areas within the prospective subject. By doing so the tutor should aim to tailor each lesson accordingly. I think my strengths as a tutor would be my perseverance, clarity when explaining concepts, the ability to identify a…

A tutor can do many things for their students. They should be able to motivate, support, inspire and teach from the heart. In other words, they should be role models to their students; someone students look upto that inspires them to achieve their full potential. I strongly believe that great tutors teach because they are passionate about what…

I don't hope to replace the school teachers completely. However 1 to 1 and smaller group engagements would help put in a more personal touch that would minimize the weakness of the student, bring the best out of them and build character (patience, resilience, analytical thinking) to supplement them to succeed in their education journey Analytical…

Local Reviews

Regardless of his university workload he is still able to find the time to teach me topics which I, personally, was unable to comprehend. Although he may be young, his abilities have allowed me to develop a greater understanding of mathematics along with helping me uncover my pure passion for the world that is maths.

Inside St Johns ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Elena reviewed interpreting column graphs in data topics and worked on simplifying algebraic expressions by collecting like terms.

Year 8 student Lily practiced solving simultaneous equations and explored the difference between coincident and parallel lines in algebra.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Chloe revised completing the square and applied the quadratic formula, including finding discriminants for quadratic equations.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a reluctance to attempt challenging questions in algebra and fractions was clear; "she said she can't do them without trying because they look hard," yet succeeded when encouraged—this avoidance meant missed opportunities to consolidate skills.

In senior grades, skipping working for linear equations led to sign errors and confusion, as one tutor observed, "jumped straight to the answers and made mistakes."

Across Years 3–6, slow progress with multiplication tables and forgetting formulas (such as area or conversion rules) repeatedly caused hesitation or refusal to complete homework tasks—sometimes work was left blank if a problem appeared unfamiliar.

Recent Achievements

One St Johns Park tutor noticed a Year 9 student who used to avoid harder algebra questions now actively re-opens her notebook to review fraction concepts before trying new problems, showing real initiative.

In a recent high school session, another student began asking for hints rather than waiting passively—she adapted quickly after spotting mistakes in scientific notation and then corrected them herself.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student who struggled with reading analogue clocks can now interpret both digital and analogue times interchangeably, finishing all clock-reading exercises without any errors.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Ethan is finding the tutoring to be very helpful st this time. Tiffany is very patient and organised and I can see that both children will get great benefit from the sessions

Clare is comfortable with Daniel already and has had at least a boost in confidence with having him "on her team".

Joshua is happy with the tutoring he is receiving from Nicholas and is confident that it will help him with his exams.

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 Wetherill Park Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Harrington Street Public School.
