Biology 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…

Be present and engaged in each lesson and ensure they thoroughly understand each topic before moving on. I would say my main strengths are patience and communication. When it comes to breaking down questions, it helps to work through things slowly and ensure understanding at each…

I believe that tutors should provide all-round mentorship to students and that this is one of the most important things that can come of tutoring; helping them to feel more confident in approaching problems they have in their everyday lives and to search for the answers to the questions that they have about the world around them. I am very patient…

Biology Tutor Green Point, NSW
The most important things a biology tutor can do for a student is constant support and encouragement while also providing methods to break down questions where they can become more confident. My strengths are that i understand every studet has their own individual way of learning which can be very different to others. I recognise this and i can…

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…

Biology Tutor Wyoming, NSW
I believe the most important thing a biology 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…

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

Hi Erica, thank you for your email. Things have started well with Jacob and hopefully they will continue in the same way. I think in this case, the difference for Jamie is that she can ask Jacob about a problem that she is struggling with and he can answer her straight away. Vivian was able to answer her too but it took her longer and I think the time factor was what was frustrating Jamie. As I'm sure you are aware in year 12 there is such a time crunch that any delays just add more pressure.

Hi Erica Thanks for the email. Yes, everything is going very well. Daniel is finding Yuta to be very helpful and has definitely been able to identify areas of weakness that require work. We are all very pleased with the progress to date.

Morgan has responded very well already with Hazel.  She said her explanations of problems has made her maths much more easier. We are very happy with Hazel.

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.
