Modern History Tutor Fairy Meadow, NSW
I believe that the most important things as a tutor can do for a student are to provide individualized attention, foster a positive learning environment, and instill confidence in the students ability to succeed.

Modern History Tutor Keiraville, NSW
A tutor must not tell a student how to do something, but show and allow them to learn it. Consequently, the student will be able to apply what they have learned through their own capabilities. Additionally, a tutor should be able to infuse some interest in the subject even if the student finds no particular interest in the subject. This may seem…

Local Reviews

Roanne has been tutoring my daughter in Yr 11 maths for a few months now and we couldn't be happier. She finds Roanne very easy to communicate with and says she explains difficult concepts in a very easy to understand way. We're very happy our daughter has Roanne to support her through HSC maths next year!

Inside CorrimalTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Remi focused on multiplication and division through homework review, rapid-fire arithmetic practice, and calendar/time questions.

Year 7 student worked on fractions and geometry, including Greek mythology context for their English assessment, using a one-pager format to connect ideas.

Another Year 8 student tackled Pythagoras' theorem alongside percentages and algebra problems, reinforcing each skill with targeted maths exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 English, one student avoided reading assigned texts in favour of familiar manga and hesitated to expand his reading "palette"—a concern as set novels become central for essays.

During a History assessment, he needed extensive prompting to formulate responses: "I had to 'hold' Max's hand through the research and writing portion," noted the tutor, highlighting reluctance to work independently.

In high school maths (Years 7–8), another student was unwilling to show working out, preferring just answers; this made it harder to identify mistakes during revision.

After setbacks or difficult days, motivation sometimes dropped sharply, slowing progress mid-task.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Corrimal noticed a big shift with Max, a high school student who used to brush off challenging English tasks but now actively works through drafts and asks for help when stuck—he recently finished revising his assignment on Otzi without giving up.

Another high schooler, Arvon, has become much more independent with double-digit multiplication: he now uses the 2x2 grid method confidently and even corrected the tutor's mistake during a recent session.

Meanwhile, Remi in primary school moved from struggling to add small numbers to flying through larger sums using finger counting, needing barely any guidance by lesson's end.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Both Thomasine and Luke are liking Scott as well. He has always been on time and is very polite. Jonathan and I can't believe our luck!

Adele is very happy with Irina. We have already seen results. In her last in class quiz, she came 5th in the class. An improvement from a few weeks ago when Adele got 3/15 for the class quiz.

We have just had our first session with John and I am writing to let you know how impressed I am with John. He was on time, polite and dressed professionally . His calm manner with Oliver was great. Oliver really enjoyed it and liked John very much . I am looking forward to many more positive sessions that result in Oliver improving .

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 Corrimal District Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Columbkille's Catholic Primary School.
