Science Tutor Booker Bay, NSW
Implement creativity and a willingness to try is the most important skill a tutor can pass on to their students. Once a student builds a willingness to try and a need to challenge themselves, they will be more likely to build good habits and routines around creating these pathways for themselves. I always ask myself 'how do students learn' and…

Science Tutor Copacabana, NSW
Offering them ways to easily comprehend subjects and topics, making subjects more enjoyable. I will try my very hardest to ensure my students feel that they are able to openly express their thoughts and to answer questions without the fear of judgement. I want my students to learn from their mistakes, and not be afraid to pick themselves back up…

Be present and engaged in each lesson and ensure they thoroughly understand each topic before moving on. I would say my main strengths are patience and communication. When it comes to breaking down questions, it helps to work through things slowly and ensure understanding at each…

Science Tutor Green Point, NSW
I believe that tutors should provide all-round mentorship to students and that this is one of the most important things that can come of tutoring; helping them to feel more confident in approaching problems they have in their everyday lives and to search for the answers to the questions that they have about the world around them. I am very patient…

Science Tutor Woy Woy, NSW
I think that whilst having adaptive teaching methods is important, ensuring the student constantly feels supported and motivated by the tutor is vital. For me, in school no matter how much I was struggling (especially in maths) I found that having a great, understanding teacher, allowed me to not be afraid of asking ‘stupid’ questions. So for…

Science Tutor Umina Beach, NSW
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is show genuine care for the student's learning. Additionally, having a passion for teaching is vital, because with no passion and care, the tutoring interactions with the student are inauthentic. My greatest strength as a tutor is being able to change the way I explain a concept so…

Science Tutor North Avoca, NSW
A tutor's most important role, in my opinion, is using their passion for a subject to provide the student with confidence in the subject, and even inspiring this same passion in the student if it is not already there. I have 5+ years of teaching experience as a martial arts instructor, I am passionate about and skilled at the subjects I would like…

The most important thing a tutor can do is give a student the confidence to continue to achieve and learn for themselves. If they can believe in themselves and keep working, they will succeed regardless of their level. I am personable and easy-going, able to meet the student where they need to be met. I have a genuine passion for mathematics and…

Inside BensvilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Zac worked through all four operations with fractions, including mixed and improper fractions, and practiced interpreting multiplication in worded questions.

For Year 8, Lily focused on factorising and expanding algebraic expressions, building up to more complex factorisation tasks the following week.

In Year 9, Sarah explored data analysis by identifying outliers and discussing the spread and location of data using different types of graphs.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, one student left both notes and school workbook at school, resulting in limited revision and no clear structure for preparing for an exam.

"She did not do her homework set for her last week," as a tutor noted of another middle years learner; this reluctance to complete assigned tasks led to less content covered during lessons.

In Year 10, messy graphing layouts meant correct answers were sometimes lost on the page.

A senior student preparing for HSC lacked confidence across syllabus topics, hesitating to attempt unfamiliar material and sticking mainly to well-rehearsed questions—this narrowed exposure right before assessment time.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Bensville noticed that a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with graphing questions now confidently uses his calculator and quickly recognises more complex graphs on his own.

In Year 8, another student went from staying quiet during problem solving to actively speaking up, tackling fractions and mixed numbers independently after struggling last term.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who previously needed lots of prompting for multi-step currency problems started drawing her own diagrams and finished all the addition and subtraction questions without any hints by the end of the session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We couldn't be happier. Both girls are enjoying the tutoring with Jackie, and feel they are learning something new each week.

Kymberley has clicked quite well with Gayan and she seems to be very happy with him.

Annalise has settled and is working well with Sam.  He's a great tutor, very attentive and makes her think!

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 Kincumber Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Coast Christian School.
