Help them to improve their abilities in areas they are not so confident in. Be there for them as a mentor as well as a teacher. I am organised and work well with others. I also have a good grasp of the subject. Sometimes I pay too much attention to small…

Ancient History Tutor Woy Woy, NSW
I think that whilst having adaptive teaching methods is important, ensuring the student constantly feels supported and motivated by the tutor is vital. For me, in school no matter how much I was struggling (especially in maths) I found that having a great, understanding teacher, allowed me to not be afraid of asking ‘stupid’ questions. So for…

Ancient History Tutor Ettalong Beach, NSW
I think the most important thing is taking the pressure off being “perfectâ€. There is no such thing as perfection and everyone reaches success differently. What works for one person may not work for another and in standardised exams, this often gets misconstrued, adding to the weight of being the perfect student. My patience and positive…

It went really well and we will continue to have Justin work with Alex. Justin explained things really well to Alex and he is already feeling more confident about Maths. He also gave me some great tips and feedback on areas I can work on with Alex.

Inside Dangar IslandTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Ava worked on multiplying fractions by whole numbers and converting between improper fractions, mixed numbers, and decimals.

For Year 8, Ethan focused on rearranging formulae to change the subject and substituting values into equations while completing homework questions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Lily tackled volumes of composite shapes and practiced finding areas within other areas by breaking down complex figures.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, one student's trigonometry test showed marks lost due to not writing working—"full pages with no working in his latest tests," as the tutor noted. He understood the methods during lessons but struggled under pressure to record steps, leading to missed partial credit.

In a Year 7 algebra session, forgetting to label answers and skipping careful reading of multi-step questions meant incomplete solutions or misinterpreted requirements.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for financial maths needed to memorise which formulas fit different scenarios but often relied on notes instead of internalising them—this slowed her down during exam practice.

Recent Achievements

A Dangar Island tutor noticed a Year 8 student who used to hesitate with rearranging formulas now confidently substitutes values without prompting, even tackling worded questions on their own.

In Year 11, one student who previously mixed up SOHCAHTOA steps can now find unknown sides independently in right-angle triangles and explain when to use each formula—a real shift from earlier confusion.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who would guess at fraction problems has started asking clarifying questions before solving, leading to accurate conversion between mixed numerals and improper fractions during their last session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We really cannot speak highly enough of Conaire. He is communicative, polite, always on time, and most importantly, highly competent with maths. From their first meeting, Tim has enjoyed and benefited greatly from his tutoring and encouragement. On a scale of 1 to 10, Conaire rates a 10+ (with no exaggeration at all).

Will has been the best match for my son Patrick to date. He really enjoys working with Will.

Very happy - Su is a very good tutor and we're very happy with the tutoring thus far.

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 Brooklyn Public School.
