Similarly, every tutor needs to be prepared before they enter in classroom to teach because it will help tutors to express their views in such a way that students can learn and understand easily.

It is also imperative that a tutor should be patient if a child is not understanding a question and try to explore new ways to make it clear. I am very loving and patient as I know kids take time to understand the key concepts. Non-judgemental is the key…

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…

Inside YagoonaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Tia focused on algebra, including expansion and factorisation, as well as probability using Venn diagrams and tree diagrams to support understanding.

For Year 9, Natalia revised equations and area concepts, then applied algebraic techniques through word problems.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Marcus practised converting between millimetres, centimetres, and kilometres for measurement tasks and worked on interpreting bar graphs and line graphs to build data literacy.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, one student repeatedly skipped planning before writing scripts, preferring to "jump straight into the draft," which made structuring arguments difficult.

A Year 10 learner misplaced assigned worksheets and arrived without required homework—organization is a clear obstacle in this case.

For a Year 8 maths quiz, overconfidence led to missed marks; "he could easily have gotten more if he took the time to check his answers."

In primary years, forgetting rules for basic multiplication and measurement (Year 4) meant progress slowed even after reminders. These habits resulted in lost time re-explaining concepts or revisiting basics instead of moving forward.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Yagoona recently saw Joel, a Year 10 student, begin spotting and fixing his own run-on sentences—a shift from earlier sessions where he waited for corrections.

Sriyan, who's in high school, remembered and correctly applied the rule for adding unlike fractions without prompting this week, having previously needed reminders each time.

Meanwhile, Ellena (Year 4) surprised her tutor by voluntarily completing extra homework and finishing it ahead of schedule—she used to need lots of encouragement just to start on tasks.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Deepti has been tutoring my son in Year 7. Deepti has developed an amazing rapport with my son and has inspired him emensely. His maths results for algebra have improved out of sight since having Deepti tutor him. Deepti is able to engage him and explain the rules and concepts and reinforce them through practice. Having been a teacher myself, I am very impressed with Deepti's skills and this has been reflected in my son's results. In addition his keenness in maths since having Deepti as his tutor is very impressive.

We are very pleased with the way Lucas is changing his approach to Math and Myunggwan has definitely had lots to do with it.

Pat is fantastic !!! Very respectful, conscientious young man and a very good teacher.

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 Canterbury Bankstown Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Yagoona Public School.
