Chemistry Tutor Shortland, NSW
The biggest thing would be to help students understand that ignorance is not failure. Just because they don't know something "basic", that does not mean they are worse than others, or are stupider, or are not going to succeed. It simply means they were not taught in a way that makes sense to them. This could be for a number of reasons, and not…

the most important things a tutor can do for a student are provide academic guidance, human connection, and consistency, and the combination of these factors can potentially reinvent a class or subject my strength are patience and communication with the pupil. I've great understanding of other people's feelings so I'm able to empathise with them…

Chemistry Tutor Mayfield West, NSW
The biggest thing a tutor can do for a student is to be encouraging and respectful, cultivating a safe environment in which they feel that they can pose questions and share answers without fear of judgement. In doing so, it makes the intake of knowledge easier and an overall more enjoyable experience. A tutor must also show a genuine interest in…

Chemistry Tutor Mayfield, NSW
The tutor needs to care about the student's learning. They need to understand the way each student learns best and mould their pedagogy to fit the student. The tutor needs to be able to recognise consistency in errors so that they can make the student aware of where they are going wrong and can help fix it. The tutor also needs to be patient and…

Chemistry Tutor Mayfield, NSW
I believe a great tutor goes beyond just increasing a student's marks- they are able to act as a mentor and oversee a student's education holistically. For example, I also guided one of my previous students through his year 12 year, helping him with the university admissions process and scholarship applications, where he is now studying…

Inside GlendaleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Emily explored hydrocarbons and the IUPAC system for naming organic molecules, working through examples of structural formulas.

For Year 12, Jayden tackled HSC Physics by breaking down the photoelectric effect and Einstein's postulates, then practiced detailed responses to long-answer exam questions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Chloe focused on financial maths key terms and applied the simple interest formula using real-life scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12 Chemistry, a student's written responses to HSC-style questions were described as "too shallow," with notes highlighting a need for greater depth and clearer structure.

One Year 10 student, when faced with algebraic equations, often skipped showing working—"she needs to make sure she thoroughly reads the questions, write out the equations she is going to use and checking over answers"—which led to repeated errors in expanding and factorising.

Another senior student had difficulty organizing revision effectively before exams; missed practice opportunities left them less confident interpreting formula-based problems under time pressure. These patterns left valuable marks unclaimed during assessments.

Recent Achievements

One Glendale tutor noticed that a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to ask for clarification now openly requests help when stuck, which means she's tackling more challenging chemistry questions without shutting down.

A Year 9 student has started writing out every step while solving worded maths problems—a shift from his old habit of skipping ahead and getting lost—which led him to independently interpret multi-step questions by the end of their session.

In Year 7 maths, a student who used to guess at equations can now expand brackets correctly on her own and even asked for extra practice with negative numbers.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Since Ben has had Jacques tutoring, he has achieved an A++ (15/15) for his maths assignment!!!

Zach and Chaitanya are doing really well. Zach is really happy, not only with the way he's learning, but also because Chaitanya takes an interest in him as well.

Dakshi is a wonderful tutor and I feel that she and Aela are getting on very well.

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 Cardiff Library, kuram—or at your child's school (with permission), like Glendale East Public School.
