Modern History Tutor Lisarow, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to give them the ability to take what they learn in the classroom outside of school. By teaching students the skills as well as the content, students will have the freedom to further pursue their interests. A passion for the subject material, the patience and communication skills necessary…

Sophia has already built great rapport with Manjot and they're catching up for a second time this afternoon as Monday's half hour wasn't enough!!! She feels really confident about her maths after Manjot's tutoring which is amazing!

Inside Killarney ValeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Ben focused on mastering the 2, 3, and 4 times tables along with subtraction basics using number patterns for support.

For Year 10, Jessica tackled probability in mathematics and deepened her understanding of chemical equilibrium through worked examples and diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Emily practiced scientific report writing in chemistry while applying concepts of energy, work, and momentum in physics problems.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Physics, anxiety under time pressure caused Mohit to lose focus during problem-solving—"he became anxious and lost his focus," as one tutor noted—resulting in incomplete answers when revising waves.

His written work sometimes lacked clarity and structure, making it harder for him to review later.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student working on spelling and reading often forgot new words unless they were written down; words starting with "th" or multi-syllable terms repeatedly tripped him up.

In both cases, the struggle to organize thoughts on paper slowed progress and left gaps in recall during revision sessions.

Recent Achievements

A Killarney Vale tutor recently noticed Mohit, a high school student, tackling new chemistry concepts on his own—he now asks questions only when truly stuck instead of relying on step-by-step guidance.

Another highlight: in physics, Mohit began explaining projectile motion out loud using diagrams, showing not just understanding but initiative in how he works through tricky ideas.

Meanwhile, Charlie (Year 3) used to shy away from level 5 reading stories but is now volunteering to read them aloud after getting hooked by word games and creative writing tasks like making haikus.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Jay-T really liked Kerry and in the one session, saw real value in getting his help

We're very pleased with Rhowdry so far. Madeline is building a great rapport with her and they seem to work well together. I know it will take some time but so far so good.

Thank you so much for sending us Leonardo! He was brilliant! Luke absolutely LOVED HIM! I can't wipe the smile off his face, and this is the text he sent me soon after..

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 Bateau Bay Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Killarney Vale Public School.
