Modern History Tutor Beacon Hill, NSW
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to support them without judgement. Whether that support comes in smaller forms of teaching students concepts they may struggle with or encouraging students to not give up. As a tutor I think my greatest strengths are bringing in a passion and enjoyment for the subjects I tutor and…

Modern History Tutor Roseville, NSW
I consider effective communication to be the most important thing a tutor can have for a student, as this one quality filters into all aspects of the job as a tutor. This allows the tutor to gain an understanding of the specific goals or concerns of the student to then maximise the use of sessions, allowing for substantial growth. I believe my…

Gracie, she has been very accommodating and has had the patience to work with my son. Even though I have not met her in person, she seems to be very dedicated.

Inside Dee WhyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Aidan worked on finding gradients and equations of straight lines as well as interpreting graphs to connect visual data with algebraic rules.

Year 10 student Olivia focused on quadratic equations, using different factorisation methods and completing the square to solve problems.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ethan explored circles, hyperbolas, and exponential equations, tackling graph sketching and identifying key features of each curve type.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student found simultaneous equations challenging when only points and gradients were provided; she relied heavily on worked examples rather than practicing independently.

In Year 9, a student's tendency to "go extremely fast through questions" led to missed steps in algebra, as one tutor noted, "needs to slow down and show working."

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student hesitated with division tricks—impatience made her guess rather than apply strategies from previous lessons.

For a primary learner tackling times tables, confidence dropped when faced with the unfamiliar 8s and 9s; skipping practice left gaps that slowed progress in multi-step problems.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Dee Why noticed a big shift for Morgan (Year 7): she now breaks down tricky compound area problems into smaller shapes without prompting—last term, she'd freeze if it wasn't straightforward.

A Year 10 student recently tackled financial maths and, after previously making frequent errors with formulas, managed to complete a full practice set independently and accurately.

In English, a Year 11 student who used to write vague answers has started linking ideas more clearly in essays and even asked for feedback on structure before submitting her draft.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are very happy with Theodora and since the school year is coming to an end, we look forward to seeing her again in 2018.

All good with Morgan, my daughter found her to be an excellent maths tutor and helped her immensely!

Anastasia & Surya seem to be getting on & making progress. Surya seems quite patient, non judgmental & able to explain concepts to Anastasia in a clear & accessible way.

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 Dee Why Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Kevin's Catholic Primary School.
