Software Dev Tutor Horsley, NSW
Whilst helping the student improve their grades is definitely important, I think that mentoring them is even more important. University and career choice is tricky and I think with my experience I can certainly help others make the best decisions for them. I am passionate about Mathematics. I completed Advanced Math and Ext 1 Math for NSW HSC. I…

I believe that it's a tutor's purpose is to push the student at a pace that they're capable of achieving regardless of what that level is. A student can only work to the best of their capacity and achieving this efficiency is the advantaged of personalised education. With younger especially clients in grades 4 and below, I believe it's essential…

Software Dev Tutor Koonawarra, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be open to other methods and understanding that everyone is unique in the areas they struggle with and everyone's solutions to this are unique as well. Being patient with students allows them to work at a pace they feel comfortable with, this will allow them to find enjoyment in the…

Inside AvondaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sophia worked on strengthening her multiplication and subtraction skills, as well as reading time and handling simple data questions using visual examples.

For Year 9, Cailyn practised combining operations with fractions—including division and subtraction—and then applied these to algebraic substitutions with decimal numbers.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Nicholas reviewed financial mathematics by tackling problems involving deposits and simple interest, followed by practice with real-life scenarios like vehicle registration fees.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student was hesitant to show working when tackling algebra, often saying "I can do this in my head," but hidden sign errors crept in, slowing progress.

In Year 8 maths, one learner relied heavily on calculators for fractions and area conversions; this masked gaps in understanding unit changes and formatting answers.

Another senior student showed difficulty recalling linear equation rules between lessons—without regular review or written notes, the same mistakes resurfaced.

For a Year 7 class, untidy setting out and skipping steps during substitution led to confusion over negatives. This meant precious time was lost correcting old errors rather than building new skills.

Recent Achievements

One Avondale tutoring session saw a Year 11 student, Daniel, shift from hesitating over tax instalment questions to independently reworking problems until he got them right—he'd previously needed constant prompting.

Meanwhile, Chelsea in Year 10 had struggled with index laws but now applies them confidently across multiplication, division, and brackets without reminders.

A younger student, Mia, who used to get frustrated and avoid tough subtraction problems, recently stuck with a challenging question until she solved it and then asked for more practice.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Cassidy has had one session with Scott. Cassidy came home very positive, saying that Scott was great at explaining concepts and that he will benefit from his tutoring support. Cassidy related well with Scott and seemed very impressed by his level of knowledge and by his academic progress at university. In effect, Scott is a great role model for Cassidy. I hope this all continues well.

Thanks for your email, Mitchell is really excited to have Ken as his tutor, he made a great impression when he came along for a chat and that high expectation has continued. He has a natural way with him and engages well with Mitchell, unlocking the mysteries and some tricks to understanding Math. We also like that Ken is a skilled tutor in many subjects so are looking forward to a long term relationship with him as a mentor for Mitchell. Someone that has worked hard to achieve success which is what we all want for our children. Thanks again I feel this match will be a good one.

Yes we are very happy with Jacinta. She is lovely and Emily likes her. She seems to be very suited to Emily, as she has a very practical approach to helping Emily with her Math's, and understood straight away what Emily's basic needs were. We look forward to Jacinta tutoring Emily this year.

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