I think the most important thing is taking the pressure off being “perfectâ€. There is no such thing as perfection and everyone reaches success differently. What works for one person may not work for another and in standardised exams, this often gets misconstrued, adding to the weight of being the perfect student. My patience and positive…

Ancient History Tutor Woy Woy, NSW
I think that whilst having adaptive teaching methods is important, ensuring the student constantly feels supported and motivated by the tutor is vital. For me, in school no matter how much I was struggling (especially in maths) I found that having a great, understanding teacher, allowed me to not be afraid of asking ‘stupid’ questions. So for…

Ancient History Tutor Wyoming, NSW
The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide guidance and help whenever a student needs it. By providing students with the necessary help on problems that they may be struggling with, they will develop their own approach to solving problems and will eventually solve similar problems without assistance. As a tutor, I believe…

Emily

Ancient History Tutor Wyoming, NSW
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is learning to adapt. Each students brain is wired completely different, and in school, there’s not always an opportunity to work one on one. So it’s crucial for a tutor to observe their students strengths and weaknesses, and use that to progress their learning. I am super patient…

Local Reviews

Jacques was great! Theo cannot stop talking about him and he is very excited for his next lesson! I think you found a great match for Theo. Jacques was very kind and very good at communicating with Theo and he did not get angry / frustrated at him which was really important to me. Theo is eager to learn more about him which I know will make him want to learn from him

Inside KincumberTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Zac focused on fraction operations, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of mixed and improper fractions, as well as understanding mathematical language like "of" meaning multiply.

For Year 8, Yillen tackled Pythagoras' Theorem in right-angled triangles and then shifted to revision for an upcoming test by reviewing past exam questions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Ava worked through the formulas for area and circumference of circles and extended her learning to sectors and arcs using real-life examples.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, one student left notes and schoolwork at home, making exam revision less effective. "It was difficult to revise as he didn't have any guidelines," a tutor noted.

For Year 5 mathematics, incomplete homework meant gaps persisted in fundamental operations and delayed progress into probability.

A Year 10 student rushed through algebraic problems without showing working, which led to repeated sign errors that were hard to trace.

Messy graph work in Year 7 made it difficult to spot where misunderstandings began—answers ended up scattered across the page with inconsistent handwriting and unclear layout.

Recent Achievements

During a Kincumber tutoring session, Olivia began to independently apply area formulas by neatly writing out each step and substituting values herself—a big shift from previously forgetting these details.

In another lesson, Zac, who was once hesitant to speak up, started tackling fraction problems with much more confidence and volunteered his reasoning before the tutor prompted him.

Meanwhile, in Year 4 maths, Ivy surprised her tutor by explaining how she solved addition and subtraction questions out loud—something she'd avoided last term—and finished a full worksheet without needing reminders.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Joshua is happy with the tutoring he is receiving from Nicholas and is confident that it will help him with his exams.

But can I just say how lovely she is and in particular Aidan is feeling very comfortable with her to the point he's happy to have her come during the school holidays!! He's normally a little reserved and can sometimes take a while to warm up but they seem to have clicked really well and he doesn't appear intimidated like he can do at times.

All going well so far. We feel confident that it will help with Emily's confidence.

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 Kincumber Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kincumber High School.
