Chemistry Tutor Banora Point, NSW
Not just tutor them, but be a friend. By opening up and developing a closer bond to students, the students feel more comfortable and it doesn't become a chemistry tutoring session, but just a study session. I went through the course(s) myself quite recently, so I understand what's expected on the students, and what they need to do to excel and not…

Chemistry Tutor Coolangatta, QLD
Other than helping a student genuinely understand the content in their course, I think that the most important thing a tutor can do for them is to help them in developing and implementing strategies to allow them to become independently successful. This may mean developing a better organisational process, implementing a system for completing tasks…

Joel was a great help. He put me at ease and made me feel comfortable. Highly recommend.

Inside Fingal HeadTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Bella worked through English worksheets focused on sentence structure, homonyms, and onomatopoeia, then practised maths problems involving time using her EzyMath textbook.

Year 9 student Willow concentrated on mastering operations with fractions—adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing, and converting between mixed numbers—plus some written problem solving.

For Year 10 student Jeremy, lessons targeted trigonometry skills like finding missing side lengths in right-angled triangles and reviewed algebraic techniques such as expanding brackets and factorisation to prepare for his upcoming exams.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12 Maths, one student arrived without necessary materials—"the only reason why this wasn't achieved was because Bella did not have paper to do the calculations"—making it impossible to attempt new problems during the session.

For a Year 10 algebra task, a tutor noted "he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors," highlighting how omitting written working can lead to confusion and repeated mistakes.

Meanwhile, in Year 8 Science, difficulty organizing notes and remembering when tests are scheduled led to last-minute preparation.

In primary English lessons, messy or incomplete paragraph responses slowed feedback and improvement.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Fingal Head noticed Jeremy, a high school student, now completes algebra and geometry problems with far less prompting than when he started—he even caught his own errors on a recent practice exam.

Willow, also in high school, initially hesitated to attempt fraction questions independently but recently managed an entire worksheet from the grade 7 syllabus on her own, showing she's become more comfortable taking risks.

In Year 6, Bella has started proofreading her writing without reminders and asked for extra homework after finishing her paragraph about cloud types ahead of schedule.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

that Harry would get to the stage where he could do it on his own. I have been very impressed with the results he has been getting and they have far exceeded my expectations so the tutoring has been an outstanding success. I don't want to finish it though just put it on hold while we work on physics for a term. I hope that is ok with you and David.

We have been impressed by Callum's diligent approach to helping Georgina, his wit and time flexibility have made things as easy as possible for her. With warm regards.

Just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how happy we have been with Sigrid  who has now had 4 sessions with our son, Andreas. She is a very caring and enthusiastic young lady who, over a short period of time, has built a lovely rapport with Andreas. In turn, Andreas feels very comfortable with her and looks forward to the sessions. Sigrid's competence and the commitment she displays are commendable and have resulted in a noticeable improvement in Andreas's confidence and his motivation towards maths. Many thanks for sending her our 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 Tweed Heads Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Fingal Head Public School.
