Geography Tutor Coogee, NSW
It's really important to be patient and maintain an open mind. Every student is different andearns different topics at different rates. When I was young I put pressure on myself to learn every topic as well as my peers and at the same rate. This caused a lot of stress for me and made me feel inadequate if I wasn't able to meet my goal. I think…

It’s essential to break down complex concepts into manageable parts and explain them in a way that makes sense to the student. Using analogies, visual aids, and real-world examples can be very effective. Establishing a supportive and non-judgmental atmosphere where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes is vital for…

The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is believe in them and their abilities. For many students it is often their lack of belief in themselves that holds them back from fully trying to understand the topic. Building this and building their confidence is key. I am very understanding and will work hard to find a way to explain…

I believe the most important thing about a tutor is being able to provide self-confidence for the student. I do this through encouragement catered both individually and to the group (if there is one). I have found that when students believe they have the ability to complete the question, they are more likely to ask questions and understand the…

Finding other ways of working out a problem. If something has been said and isn’t ‘going in’ we can try a visual approach or written down approach, whatever works for the student . Being patient I think is very important, not getting frustrated with the student and using positive language, for example ‘good try’ or ‘nearly there’.…

It is important for tutors to listen to their students. Positivity relationships must be developed between students and tutors, using patience and trust.

The most important thing is that the student feels comfortable with the tutor and that they enjoy their teaching sessions.

When a teacher instills a passion for learning, they empower students to…

I believe that tutors must be role models for their students, both academically and in general circumstances.

Aside from being academically strong, tutors must also be able to understand their tutees…

A tutor needs to be able to correctly relay information to the student and teach in an understandable way. It is crucial that you teach your student in the way they learn and do whatever needs to be done to help them. As well as this, you need to be able to set goals to work towards with your student so that the time spent with them is worthwhile.…

Inside CoogeeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Robbie focused on multiplying and dividing fractions, then compared different fraction values using visual aids.

In Year 10, Claire worked through compound and simple interest calculations as well as interpreting compounded value tables for financial maths topics.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex explored the declining-balance method of depreciation and reducing-balance loans, with practical examples to deepen understanding of financial mathematics concepts.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student's test performance revealed persistent timing issues—"still struggling to complete tests in the correct time frame"—with rushed endings leading to unfinished questions in algebra.

For Year 11 Physics, forgotten content after missed sessions resulted in gaps that "couldn't be covered quickly before the test," causing anxiety and confusion.

In Year 6 Maths, unorganized note-taking meant key formulas were missing when revising fractions.

Another senior student hesitated to write working out for worded problems: "He holds back in case he gets an answer wrong," so mistakes remained hidden and feedback couldn't be used effectively.

Recent Achievements

One Coogee tutor recently saw a Year 9 student, previously hesitant to ask for help, now actively seeking clarification whenever confused—a big change from just nodding along in earlier sessions.

A Year 11 student has started fixing mistakes independently after only one correction, where before he would repeat the same error several times.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who used to stumble over times tables is now recalling them more smoothly each week and even completed a new set without prompts during their last session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Really happy with the tutoring and Stephen is great, really professional. My son is feeling a lot more positive about catching up so really happy.

You have hit the Jackpot!  Georgina is very happy with Stephen. Many thanks for all your efforts.

Gianna is a fantastic tutor who has definitely been able to help my son Bryce improve his understanding.  Bryce has jumped from a C in Maths to an A- which is proof of excellent work from both Gianna and my son.  Thank you.

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 Randwick Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Brigid's Catholic Primary School.
