Economics Tutor Saratoga, NSW
I think the most important thing an economics tutor can do for a student is to make them feel proud and confident with themselves as well as being a supportive teacher. I know from experience that when you're struggling with a concept it is a very disheartening thing and can lead to self doubt and giving up. I think a tutor should help a student…

Economics Tutor Booker Bay, NSW
Provide support both academically and mentally. This can be done through practicing a topic of a subject, and also helping schedule their weeks, so they know they will still have social/leisure time, and maximize their grades and themselves. I am incredibly confident and happy to also learn new things. For example, if a student comes to me and…

Economics Tutor
Personalise the experience. It is vital to get t know the student, their concerns, their best learning style. The pace and content of the sessions needs to be adapted to the student's ability to achieve confidence and competence. Deep experience and thorough up to date knowledge, empathy (I am a parent to Yr 11 & 12 boys, as well as a tutor),…

Hannah has been with us just a few lessons and already my daughter who is in Year 9 is becoming confident in her understanding of maths. Thanks Hannah!

Inside Box HeadTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Zac practised multiplying fractions by integers and converting between improper fractions, mixed numbers, and decimals.

For Year 8, Jessica focused on rearranging formulas to change the subject and substituted values into equations to solve for unknowns.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Sarah worked through using trigonometry (including SOHCAHTOA) to find unknown angles in right-angled triangles and applied the Pythagorean theorem in various questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 algebra, one student avoided writing out working for equation rearrangement—"she just says the answer aloud," as a tutor noted—which led to missed sign changes and confusion with negatives.

A Year 11 trigonometry lesson saw another learner rely on memory instead of referencing formula sheets during practice; this caused hesitation when faced with multi-step bearings questions.

Meanwhile, in Year 4, incomplete homework on clock models meant time concepts were shaky in class and left her guessing during money problem tasks.

In senior years, forgetting to bring calculators or worksheets resulted in lost lesson time searching for alternatives.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Box Head noticed a big change with one Year 8 student who used to freeze up during problem-solving but now speaks up more and works through tricky fraction questions aloud, showing real initiative compared to last term.

In a recent high school session, another student who struggled with rearranging formulas began choosing the right formula independently when tackling geometry problems—a first for her.

For a younger learner, there's been a subtle shift: she now draws out currency diagrams herself before starting worded addition questions, rather than waiting for prompts or hints from the tutor.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Well the man is a genius - he can get Katie and Alex to focus for an hour, it's amazing and has ignited a small flame in their interest in Maths which I am sure will continue to grow over time. He has a great way of communicating and so far it seems to be working

Thank you for the email. Everything is going well so far. Nicholas is happy and believes the tutoring is helping already. The one on one means he can ask questions in a safe environment. Teresa is very professional and reliable, always turns up on time. Nicholas says they get on well.

Thanks for the contact. We are happy with the way things are going with Dean, and more importantly Olivia seems to happy. We understand that it will take a few months before we start seeing measurable improvements in her results, and we just really hope it helps 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 Umina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Pretty Beach Public School.
