Science Tutor Faulconbridge, NSW
I believe the most important role a tutor plays is to establish a friendly relationship with the student. This makes learning more engaging and achievable. My previous tutoring experience has shown me that students learn best when they are engaged more personally. For example, relating concepts to the hobbies of a student allows them to perceive…

Science Tutor Winmalee, NSW
One of the most important things a tutor can do in my opinion is understand how a student thinks and foster a sense of encouragement regarding that thinking pattern. Personally in my experience I have found that this is very helpful and just overall a nice quality to have in a teacher/tutor. I believe my strengths as a tutor come from the fact I…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to be friendly and make sure they feel welcome. It's also important to make sure the student is understanding the content and if they aren't to reiterate the points or try to teach them in another way. My strengths as a tutor are that I am highly organised and prepared, I am very…

Finding ways to explain complex or confusing ideas and skills in ways that the student can understand and relate to. I also believe that building a student's confidence is crucial. not just in exam situations but in and out of class so they can engage better with the material.

To bring students to the truth, help them critically think, give them confidence in their personhood and to plant a real desire and love for learning. I'm good at analogies and explaining things in different ways depending on whom I'm speaking with. I'm also of a relaxed personality and so won't put unnecessary pressures on the…

Inside FaulconbridgeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Emily worked on reading fluency and letter formation in English, alongside practising counting exercises using a workbook for Maths.

In Year 9, Alexia revised multiplying and dividing algebraic equations and focused on simplifying these expressions through targeted worksheets to prepare for an upcoming test.

For Year 10, Daniel explored Financial Maths by calculating tax, the Medicare levy, taxable income, and tax refunds using real-life examples from past exam papers.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student repeatedly left working steps out in financial maths questions—she skipped showing steps for tax and Medicare levy, which made it hard to spot calculation slips.

In a Year 8 algebra session, another student didn't review previous feedback before starting homework; errors with negative signs and method choice persisted across tasks.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student avoided sounding out unfamiliar words during reading practice, hesitating when spelling new vocabulary aloud. The result: time spent correcting recurring mistakes or circling back to basics instead of building confidence on new material.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Faulconbridge recently noticed some great shifts among students. In Year 11, Isabelle had previously been hesitant with new measurement formulas, but after patient practice she began tackling perimeter and area questions for shapes like trapeziums and cylinders with much less guidance, getting more answers right each session.

Tariq, a high schooler who needed help remembering how to convert fractions and decimals into percentages, is now working through these calculations with increasing independence—he even chose the correct method on his own during a recent lesson.

Meanwhile, Lillian in primary has started spelling every word on her weekly list correctly after struggling earlier in the term; she finished her last spelling test without any errors.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Tahlia and Jonah are getting along very well so far and Tahlia appears to be taking on board the information that Jonah is giving her. Tahlia is enjoying her tutoring sessions and it doesn't feel like an hour to her.

Dorcas is a very patient tutor, she has lots of experience and is good with children. She is willing to go the extra mile and my son has been improving under her guidance.

I would like to say how impressed we were with El-Abed. You provide a really useful support service.

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 Blue Mountains Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Springwood High School.
