Ancient History Tutor Shell Cove, NSW
Although my goal is to see them be at the top of their class, it is more important to see improvements in their tutor lessons and use the knowledge I give them at school to refine their skills I am very easy going and I have a lot of patience. So I am good with kids that are struggling to understand. I use the 4 predominant learning styles:…

Inside BlackbuttTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Molly worked on converting between hourly and weekly pay using formulas in financial maths, then explored the structure and function of the nervous system including brain lobes.

In Year 10, Ava revised trigonometry concepts such as sine rule and calculating the area of non-right angled triangles, along with reviewing compound shapes in geometry.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ella focused on normal distribution and bivariate data by working through summary notes and HSC-style questions to strengthen her understanding of statistical relationships.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, exam stress led to avoidable mistakes on content usually well understood; as noted, "she would benefit from reviewing tests before submitting them."

A Year 9 session revealed working out was often unclear and steps unlabeled, causing confusion when checking back over trigonometry problems.

In a Year 7 algebra lesson, not writing each step resulted in missed negatives—double-checking was neglected even after reminders.

When attempting worded questions in Years 8 and 10, rushing to answers without reading carefully left important information unused.

At times, hesitation after setbacks delayed progress during practice tasks.

Recent Achievements

One Blackbutt tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to check her own work is now confidently identifying and correcting her mistakes during sessions, especially with algebraic equations.

In a recent lesson, a Year 10 student—who used to rely heavily on step-by-step guidance—successfully tackled trigonometry problems solo, even completing a challenging past HSC question without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 4, after struggling with reading comprehension earlier in the term, read an entire new chapter aloud and paused to ask for clarification on tricky words instead of skipping them.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Ashleigh is really enjoying the help Sunny is giving her & is starting to feel more confident within herself. Apparently even her teacher has remarked on her improvement. Ashleigh is keen to continue tutoring for the rest of the year. Sunny is a great tutor & matched perfectly with Ashleigh.

A quick note to advise you that we have already been pleasantly surprised with Liam's current test result. Josh is doing a great job, and the Liam is responding well. In fact , for the first time ever, Liam has surpassed his twin brother in a Maths exam.

Shannon did really well with her entrance exam and it was for that reason I contacted you. Her confidence has doubled since her tutoring with Daniel began, so for that I am truly grateful. Daniel was a great tutor who related well to Shannon. He has taught her some valuable strategies. He is also a lovely boy so he deserves a lot of credit. Thank you for the organised way you delivered the service. I have recommended your company to others so hopefully you will hear from them.

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 Oak Flats Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Nazareth Catholic Primary School.
