Physics Tutor Mona Vale, NSW
One of the most important things a physics tutor can do for a student is give them a personalised teaching experience. Often there are other factors at play in the progress of a student's learning than just their mental ability. Being able to recognise and connect to the child will open up numerous learning pathways to allow them to reach their…

Physics Tutor Avalon Beach, NSW
I believe that the most important thing that a physics tutor can do for a student is listen to/watch for what they're struggling with most, and focus on that. Optimising the time you have with them will make sure that they can improve more quickly. I believe that my strengths as a tutor include my enthusiasm and passion for mathematics, and I try…

Physics Tutor Warriewood, NSW
I believe the most important aspect of tutoring is targeting a student's goal in a subject, whether that be just passing or scoring 100%, and teaching them at that level, whilst providing that extra push to potentially help them succeed above these goals. In doing so, I believe this allows students to engage more with the work and see strong…

Physics Tutor Elanora Heights, NSW
I think the biggest benefit a tutor can have is to help instill in a student a sense of confidence in their ability to learn. Regardless of how much subject matter a student is able to retain, they will have a lot of learning to do beyond when they are being tutored, so I believe it is at least as important for students to be ‘learning how to…

Aaron is settling in very nicely with John. We think John is fantastic and he and Aaron work extremely well together.

Inside Elvina BayTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Max reviewed linear relationships and practiced constructing graphs from tables and points.

For Year 12, Sarah focused on financial mathematics, tackling HSC sample questions on simple and compound interest as well as depreciation.

Meanwhile, Olivia (Year 12) worked through exam revision using past HSC trial papers, with a particular focus on normal distribution problems and strategies for continuous probability distributions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 mathematics, one student was encouraged to "practice without notes," but consistently reached for the formula sheet instead of recalling key steps independently during complex normal distribution problems.

In a Year 9 algebra session, messy working and skipping layout made it hard to track sign errors—"missed details in the question led to wrong answers," as one tutor observed.

A senior student practicing under timed exam conditions tended to focus only on familiar question types, avoiding tougher unfamiliar variations and missing out on building confidence for actual assessment scenarios.

Recent Achievements

One Elvina Bay tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student who used to rush through algebra and make repeated errors—now, after focused sessions, she shows real patience working through problems step by step and even uses her improved skills on harder questions without prompting.

Another high schooler came to a recent session with specific questions already prepared, rather than waiting passively; this new initiative helped him quickly master tricky differentiation topics he'd struggled with last term.

A Year 5 student who once forgot key techniques is now recalling content from previous weeks and confidently applying it to new problems.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Shay is really enjoying the tutoring and Ben is a great tutor.  She is already improving in her maths, which was the objective.  Shay even does her extra math homework without argument which is amazing .  We look forward to working with Ben for the rest of this term and next year.

I would like to inform you that Paul did his last session with Vik on Sunday 11.Nov 2012. I have to mention that he did a fantastic job of teaching Vik the two subjects maths & physics, and also helping him understand how VCE works. Thank You for keeping me well informed about my son's progress. I would have no hesitation to recommend you & Paul to any of my friends or anyone who needs help from a tutor. Wishing you all the best in the future.

We are very pleased with the program to date. Stephen is a very nice young man and a good tutor. David our son enjoys his teaching style and tutoring.

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 Mona Vale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Luke's Grammar School, Bayview Campus.
