Chemistry Tutor Gymea, NSW
- Teaching students critical thinking skills instead of just how to solve different types of problems. This enables them to adapt their thinking, and assess and define problems, leaving them with a better chance of independently figuring out problems by themselves e.g. in exams. - Building strong, authentic relationships with students. This helps…

Chemistry Tutor Lilli Pilli, NSW
Tutors need to be able to listen, support, and communicate with their students in a way that makes them feel comfortable to ask questions and admit when they don’t really understand what’s going on. By being an approachable person, students are less likely to feel anxious and in a comfortable environment, are more likely to absorb the…

Inside HeathcoteTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Imogen focused on multiplication and division, including double-digit problems, using step-by-step practice.

For Year 10, Alex worked through algebraic skills involving BIDMAS (order of operations) and practiced solving equations with percentages.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Maya reviewed Financial Maths concepts—such as annuities—and tackled past HSC questions on Critical Path Analysis to strengthen exam readiness.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 English, one student hesitated to begin independent work without direct prompting, as noted: "she waited for my suggestion before starting each question." This reduced the opportunity to develop confidence in tackling unseen material.

A Year 11 Chemistry student left homework incomplete and rarely specified which areas needed targeted revision—making it harder to address gaps efficiently before exams.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 Maths student struggled with organizing working out clearly when converting decimals to percentages; missing steps often led to confusion and repeated errors. These habits sometimes meant more time was spent retracing old ground instead of progressing.

Recent Achievements

One Heathcote tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to hesitate asking questions now openly seeks clarification when she hits confusing parts, which means she's finally tackling tricky maths problems head-on.

Another high schooler has started reviewing her old exam mistakes and can now clearly explain how she'd fix them—something she avoided before.

Among the younger students, one Year 5 learner began using her own notes to solve word problems independently, rather than waiting for hints.

Last session, that same student chose a new strategy on her own and finished all ten problems without errors.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

It's got off to a great start, Beaux really likes Taran and she likes the way Taran explains things and shows her new ways of working things out. Taran has boosted her confidence and Beaux is actually able to do a lot more than we thought.

We are very happy with Thai and the tutoring set up. Massimo and Thai have established a comfortable routine and it appears to be working for everyone involved. I can see that Massimo's confidence has already improved and he has regained his motivation.

It's all going really well Beaux breezed through a recent test of percentages that she and Tara had covered and which she had previously struggled with before. I will certainly recommend you to anyone who may need 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 Engadine Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Heathcote High School.
