Science Tutor Adamstown, NSW
Teaching minds, touching hearts, transforming lives. Aside from the mastery of the subject being taught, developing a genuine bond between tutor and student, helping them apply or understand the gravity or importance of their study and why they should not take it for granted. In other words, helping them not only in the four corners of the…

I think a lot of the more important parts of tutoring is involved in the study technique and supporting students to find the motivation in themselves to study and do the work. Being the person that has got their back. Although of course the specific content they are learning is important as well. In addition a lot of students struggle with…

Helping a student to enjoy a subject, or at the very least succeed, is a major thing to help them through school. Everyone has different needs, and a tutor helps accommodate those needs in an efficient way. Inspiration can go a long way, and improving their enjoyment of a subject may set them up for a future they love. When I tutored my friends in…

According to me, a tutor must collaborate with his students to set realistic goals for them in the short as well as long term. Apart from that, a tutor should definitely empower students with effective study methods, time management strategies, and organizational techniques as it encourages them to develop independence in their learning journey.…

The most important things a tutor can do are grow to understand the student so they can best help them. I think that if the tutor understands a student, if they have a strong rapport then they can identify a student's weak and strong points and work to solidify their strengths and mitigate their weaknesses. Although I have no formal tutoring…

I believe a great tutor goes beyond just increasing a student's marks- they are able to act as a mentor and oversee a student's education holistically. For example, I also guided one of my previous students through his year 12 year, helping him with the university admissions process and scholarship applications, where he is now studying…

A tutor can help create a safe environment for a child to voice their concerns with learning which they may feel unable to do in a class setting. Having one-on-one tutor sessions can also help a child to target exactly what they are struggling with. A tutor also has more time with that student to assess what they are good at in order to keep…

The biggest thing a tutor can do for a student is to be encouraging and respectful, cultivating a safe environment in which they feel that they can pose questions and share answers without fear of judgement.

Local Reviews

Kelly was very helpful with getting it all set up and ready to go, we are very impressed
Brad, Adamstown Heights

Inside Adamstown HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Chloe focused on data analysis, including calculating mean, median, mode and range, as well as interpreting and creating various graph types such as column and stem-and-leaf charts.

In Year 10, Jackson worked through solving linear equations using y = mx + b form and practised finding x- and y-intercepts from given equations.

Meanwhile, Year 3 student Julian reviewed the properties of 3D shapes—faces, edges, vertices—and confidently completed two-digit addition and subtraction questions before tackling some with four- to five-digit numbers.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, one student regularly estimated solutions instead of showing full working to isolate variables, leading to confusion with negatives and brackets—he skipped steps in algebra, which hid sign errors.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student's study notes were undated and homework incomplete; gaps in financial maths and bivariate data persisted because weekly revision outside lessons was limited.

In senior test prep, another student struggled with time management under pressure: unfamiliar question types led to hesitation and slower progress through exam papers.

At the primary level, difficulty recording numbers beyond thousands resulted in repeated errors during multi-digit calculations.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Adamstown Heights recently noticed a big shift with one Year 11 student who had previously missed key parts of multi-step questions—now he's underlining critical information and tackling more complex problems almost entirely on his own.

In Year 9, another student who used to hesitate before asking for help now openly talks through her algebraic reasoning out loud, showing real independence during sessions.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who struggled with maths vocabulary at first is now confidently naming all the main 3D shapes and even explained their properties without prompting.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Cara is very happy with Ishwarya as her tutor. They have an easy, productive working relationship already after only three weeks, Cara was comfortable with Ishwarya after the first week.

William is excited as he is learning more with Bailey than with his math's teacher. Baileys methods are easy to follow and very helpful. Bailey is always on time and puts in 110%. After every session, you can see the smile on William's face and his new found confidence. We are very impressed and very lucky to have Bailey tutor William.

Wen is fantastic! Jack is very happy with the tutoring so we would like to continue with her.

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 Adamstown Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Belair Public School.
