I think the most important thing to understand as a tutor is that different students think differently. Certain students will naturally have more or less affinity to different subjects, but also different ways of learning. Trying to figure out which way to best teach requires understanding which way students are best able to learn. For instance,…

Explain a complex question (for students) in an easier way. Find weaknesses and strengths of every individual, not use the same pattern to treat the whole class.

The skill of empathy towards a student is possibly one of the most important things a tutor should be equipped with, in that they need to recognise that while you're an expert on the material, the student is learning it for the first time. Thus, tutors like myself need to be able to present concepts that the student can understand, i.e., using…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them become independent learners. Giving students strategies to be independent and more effective learners can be beneficial to them for the rest of their life. I think it is also important for a tutor to be able to explain the material in multiple ways as not all students…

I opine that understanding the IQ and how to upgrade it is the key responsibility of a mentor. 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…

In addition, it is professional to understand each student's ability, needs and situation. Create a welcoming atmosphere for students to approach. Encourage students to go forward by themselves.

To engage their student in what they are being taught. Often, it is easy for tutors to treat teaching as a rote-memory recitation of their materials, without actually using other analogies and connective methods that students benefit from. If a tutor is unwilling to invest energy into their lessons, a student likewise will gain little enrichment.…

Keep the student comfortable by making sure they are on track and giving another perspective to view a particular question.

Therefore, creating a positive environment which the student is happy to engage in…

Emma, Yagoona

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.

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.
