Zubana
Tutor Jordan Springs, NSW
The most important thing a teacher in general can do for a student is to cultivate a positive mindset that they have the potential to do anything. It is a way of teaching them to believe in themselves. I believe teaching is more than just conveying information. A teacher has the power to mold a child's life. Hence as a teacher, it is crucial to…

Keira
Tutor Warrimoo, NSW
The most important thing for a tutor to do is to make sure the student can feel confident, making the subject enjoyable to learn, rather than stressful and disheartening. I try to understand what part they are struggling with, so I can help them understand, rather than learn rote answers. So this means I'm patient, and a good…

A tutor should help students feel supported, not judged — and create an environment where they can build both skill and confidence. It's important to help students develop strong foundations and problem-solving strategies, but equally important to listen, encourage curiosity, and show them that improvement is always possible.

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to understand not only where they need assistance in their school work, but how they best learn.
No matter how good or well-educated a tutor is, if they can't adapt to different learning styles, the student will not benefit. Through helping my classmates throughout high school, I have…

At the end of a session, you want your student to understand the concept being taught, rather than blindly solving problems using formulae without understanding why.

The most important thing is the students. They are the priority as a tutor. Helping them to understand what they learning is vital, and working to their abilities, not necessarily a schedule.

Inside Yellow RockTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 4 student Jack focused on measurement by finding perimeter and area, then practised converting units for volume.
In Year 8, Alexia worked through simplifying algebraic equations and multiplying/dividing them using worksheets to prepare for an upcoming test.
Meanwhile, a Year 10 student tackled financial maths by calculating tax and Medicare levy as well as working out taxable income and tax refunds directly from exam-style questions.
Recent Challenges
In Year 11 Maths, one student repeatedly avoided writing full working for financial maths problems—when asked about a tricky tax calculation, she said, "I just tried to remember the answer," which led to confusion with taxable income and Medicare levy steps.
A Year 9 student often revised only familiar algebra topics, neglecting indices and sign conventions; this caused mistakes to resurface in classwork.
In Year 7, revision notes were left incomplete after lessons on perimeter and area of composite shapes, making it difficult to connect new formulae later. The result: time spent relearning basics instead of building new skills.
Recent Achievements
A tutor in Yellow Rock recently noticed Isabelle, a high school student, making a real shift in her approach to exam prep—she now works through difficult problems independently, whereas she previously hesitated and needed step-by-step guidance.
In another session, Tariq finally began calculating unknown sides unprompted using Pythagoras' Theorem, marking a big leap from earlier sessions where he relied heavily on hints.
Meanwhile, Lillian in primary school has started spelling all her weekly words correctly for the first time this term and even explained her science project with newfound enthusiasm.

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 Blue Mountains Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Winmalee High School.
