I believe the most important things a chemistry tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, adapt to their learning style, and create a safe space for questions and mistakes.

Inside CopacabanaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Zac focused on fraction operations, including adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions, and practised simplifying mixed and improper fractions using worded sentence questions.

Year 8 student Lily worked through algebraic expansion and factorisation as well as more complex expressions involving both techniques.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Olivia recapped money counting in NAPLAN-style questions and analysed the symmetries of shapes by counting angles and sides using visual aids.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often forgets to do set homework and struggles to stay focused during lessons, as seen when "she was very reluctant to do work today" and didn't complete her assigned tasks—resulting in slow progress through content.

In Year 10, messy written work led to calculation errors, especially when columns weren't lined up for long division or graph plotting.

For a senior student preparing for HSC, frequent reliance on calculator answers without double-checking steps caused repeated mistakes; one tutor noted, "errors were being made when numbers were not properly lined up in columns," which cost valuable revision time.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Copacabana noticed Zac, a high school student, shifting from hesitating during problem solving to confidently speaking up and tackling fraction questions that previously caused him trouble—he now remembers methods across lessons without prompting.

In another session, Olivia demonstrated new independence by bringing her own tricky homework questions and consistently writing out area formulas before solving complex shape problems; she used to skip this step and get stuck more often.

For a younger student, Lilly showed tangible progress by stopping her tutor from helping so she could solve percentage-to-fraction conversions on her own—a first for her.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

My son and myself are greatly satisfied with the work that Jacqualine is putting forth to my son Tyler, he looks forward to every session. Jacqueline is professional, explains the following subjects until my son grasps on but also makes learning enjoyable. Not only myself by Tyler's teacher has seen an improvement with his confidence when completing a math's task at school. I believe we are in the process of having Tyler's teacher also liaise with Jacqueline to make this process a easier transition.

Yes tutoring is going really well. I'm practicing and doing my best. I haven't done this in years but I feel as though I am picking it up quite well. Many thanks.

I would just like to say how thrilled we are with Aaron, he is amazing. Tyler loves working with him and actual looks forward to doing maths which I never thought would happen. So once again thank you for such a wonderful service with great tutors.

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 Copacabana Public School.
