Online Tutor Copacabana, NSW
Offering them ways to easily comprehend subjects and topics, making subjects more enjoyable. I will try my very hardest to ensure my students feel that they are able to openly express their thoughts and to answer questions without the fear of judgement. I want my students to learn from their mistakes, and not be afraid to pick themselves back up…

Local Reviews

Claudia is great. She went above and beyond in the first session spending almost 2 hours with Sasha. To quote Sasha -‘I learnt more in that one session than I have all year’! She also offered to assist Sasha via text or phone to help her with a test coming up this week.

Inside KillcareTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Zac focused on adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions—including working with mixed and improper fractions—and learned how to simplify results in calculations.

For Year 8, Yillen practiced using Pythagoras' Theorem to solve right-angled triangle problems and applied area formulas for various shapes, connecting these concepts with recent classwork.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Lily tackled algebraic expansion and factorisation as well as rearranging formulas, working through homework questions to consolidate her understanding.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a student left his notes and workbook at school, which meant he had no guidelines for revision—this made it harder to prepare for an unexpected exam.

"He didn't have a calculator handy," one tutor observed during a senior session, so some questions were missed or required extra help.

In upper high school, another student needed more home practice to master concepts but hadn't completed assigned work.

For a Year 4 lesson, forgetting key materials led to confusion when converting between time zones.

These moments slowed progress in class and increased reliance on tutors for reminders and support.

Recent Achievements

The tutor in Killcare observed that a high school student, after initially being shy and hesitant to answer, started speaking up during problem solving and now confidently tackles fraction questions without waiting for prompts.

Another older student has begun asking for more challenging homework on his own, a big shift from earlier sessions where he only completed what was set.

At the primary level, a younger student who previously needed encouragement with currency problems now draws her own diagrams to solve them and explains each step aloud while working through addition and subtraction tasks.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you for your email. Ben and David are working well together and it appears that the working relationship is positive. Interestingly, Ben has instantly been able to move to working with David as both David and Ben have in common the same secondary school that Ben is currently going to. So while David attended the school some years prior to Ben, and much has change, they were still able to compare experiences about the school which helped start them working constructively. We are very satisfied with continuing with David.

Yes so far we are happy with Emma. The reason we want the tutoring is that I would like Stephanie to be extended in a similar way to that which coaching colleges follow ie they seem to follow the curriculum of selective schools. I would like Stephanie to have the same opportunity to be extended. Since the coaching colleges are inconvenient for us, we much prefer to have a tutor like Emma.

Tanay enjoys learning with Curtis which is a great thing so I am sure he will listen to what Curtis has to tell him.

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 Umina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Pretty Beach Public School.
