The most important thing a chemistry tutor can do for a student is to help them understand what they themselves cannot.

Teach them how to study. I feel that too many students think the only way to study is to read the text book or talk to the teacher. Although these are valid ways I feel that most students don't realise there are other ways to study. I personal prefer to watch videos explaining the subject, draw pictures and diagrams, and then make flash cards.…

Most importantly a tutor should understand the goals and needs of each student individually - what they find difficult and why they struggle with certain concepts. Subsequently, tutors should teach students the concepts and ensure they understand how to solve problems, this provides lifelong problem solving skills rather than memorised methods to…

Inside Emu PlainsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Alexia focused on understanding decimal places and reviewed her recent test to identify specific mistakes.

Year 9 student Alexia worked through practice questions on composite shapes, kites, trapezoids, circles and arcs, as well as calculating the volume of triangular prisms.

In Year 12, James tackled exam-style problems involving probability—distinguishing between independent and non-mutually exclusive events—and practiced key statistics skills such as finding mode, median, range, and interquartile range.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student preparing for HSC maths avoided showing working in series questions, making it hard to pinpoint where misunderstandings occurred—"he wasn't naturally seeing what the question was asking," as one tutor observed.

In Year 9 algebra revision, incomplete homework meant missed opportunities to clarify misconceptions before a test.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student often practiced only familiar decimal and Pythagoras problems, leaving harder topics untouched.

During calculus applications with a senior student, fatigue led to skipped written steps and confusion in worded velocity problems; this left gaps when tackling multi-step exam tasks under pressure.

Recent Achievements

One Emu Plains tutoring session saw a Year 12 student, Alistair, shift from just listening during calculus lessons to actively working out equations on his own and even spending extra time practising his calculus rules at home.

Meanwhile, in Year 11 chemistry, Jack moved from needing help to intuitively finding where to look for answers during reaction questions—he's now choosing problem-solving paths independently.

For a younger win, Rumaysa (Year 6) has gone from rushing through maths problems with mistakes to deliberately writing each step and double-checking her work before moving on.

Chemistry tutoring in Emu Plains

Why would you ever need to know about combustion, corrosion, and electrochemical processes? Most students wonder about that too, especially if they don't plan on going into science.

Chemistry can seem abstract, learning about elements and matter, how equilibrium occurs and how chemical systems react. No wonder students get discouraged.

Chemistry Tutor Emu Plains

All it takes for a student to go from a mild distaste for chemistry to understanding what is scribbled in the textbook is someone to point out what to avoid and where to put in that extra hour of revision. It's like with any problem situation in schooling and even in their personal life, students need to know about using effective strategies. Then all you need is persistence, staying on task until you reach your goal.

If your child is struggling in school, chances are you've already thought about finding a tutor. Be it passing a test, getting your child’s grade up or preparing for a career in science, we work with local Emu Plains chemistry tutors who can get your child to stand on their own two feet. This is how we do it.

We organise one-on-one lessons at your home, at a time that fits your schedule. There are no hidden fees, just a simple hourly rate.
