I think some of the most important things that a tutor can do for a student is obviously, being able to lift their grades as well as instilling more self-confidence in them when tackling harder questions. Another more important thing is being able to act as a mentor to the student, and relay any important information that would be beneficial to…

It is extremely important to regularly re-evaluate the student's objectives. Modifying your approach as a tutor to make the student feel comfortable and…

Patience and not comparing them with the others. I believe that each student has their own pace of learning.

Make sure the student has the right attitude towards studying and enjoying as well. I personally think enjoying what you are doing is the most important. From my experience, It is way easier to learn and memorize the things you like. Forcing the student to do something worsens the attitude and possibly the grade as well. I think my biggest…

Communication has been prompt and easy. Tutor sourced and started quickly. Lovely tutor gets on well with my daughter.
Sharon Watkins, Turramurra

Inside TurramurraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Jack focused on consolidating subtraction and division, identifying these as areas for extra support while building confidence through arithmetic practice.

Year 10 Amy spent time reviewing a recent math test—clarifying mistakes in functions, probability, and integration—and then refined her comparative Module A English essay by strengthening structure and key paragraph elements.

For Year 11 student Lucas, the lesson centred on tackling probability trees and conditional probability before moving to advanced calculus concepts like interpreting first and second derivatives, using worked examples to target exam weaknesses.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Mathematics, one student tended to feel overwhelmed by multi-step trigonometry and geometric series problems, which led to difficulty expressing solutions algebraically.

A tutor observed, "She gets stuck when questions are wordy and can't always break them into manageable steps."

In Year 9 English, responses sometimes lacked flow and coherence between sentences within a paragraph, making arguments less persuasive under timed conditions.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student often left out working in division or fractions—resulting in repeated calculations when errors arose mid-solution. The result: time lost retracing steps instead of building confidence with new material.

Recent Achievements

One Turramurra tutor recently noticed a big change in a Year 11 student who had previously struggled with logarithms—this week, he not only understood and applied the laws of logs but also spotted and fixed his own errors without prompting.

Another high schooler who used to get stuck on function questions began connecting first and second derivatives to the original graph's behaviour, showing real independence in tackling integration as well.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student made the leap from guessing at word problems to confidently breaking them down and forming equations, finishing all his mental calculation tasks on his own.

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 Turramurra Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Northside Montessori School.
