Different students have different learning techniques, in that sense I think a teacher should describe a topic multiple times along with different ways to solve the same problem. And, I always keep in mind that everyone's understanding is not same and do not have the same mind set for learning the subjects. As a tutor, I believe I have the enough…

I believe a tutor can help a student find the most suitable way to learn a subject that they might be struggling with in a traditional classroom. With enough encouragement and flexibility in their approach, a tutor can build a student's confidence in their own ability to learn, understand, and grow. I'm flexible with my teaching approach - I don't…

Be patient with them.

It is essential that the student feels comfortable learning, and as a tutor I think it is our job to achieve this. Not only should the student feel relaxed while in class, they should start to gain interest in what they are learning. I think at least a tutor can do on the practical aspect is to help the student achieve their goals, lead them and…

Inside KurnellTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 student Alice worked through trigonometry concepts, focusing on the sine and cosine rules for solving triangle problems.

For Year 11, Tom reviewed exam questions covering depreciation calculations and percentage conversions, with extra practice on unit conversion and using significant figures accurately.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Jack practiced algebraic skills by creating simultaneous equations from word problems and refining his technique for solving inequalities and multi-step equations.

Recent Challenges

The unit circle still needed more practice in the Year 9 student's trigonometry work, with several steps left unexplained, making it tough to pinpoint where errors crept in.

In Year 7 algebra, working out x using multiplication and division showed gaps—written steps were incomplete or skipped, so mistakes weren't easy to trace back.

For a Year 11 assessment task in Science, analysing results and tabulating data proved difficult; the challenge was reading questions closely and organizing responses logically.

In Year 4 area tasks, messy layout made following calculations harder for both student and tutor, slowing down progress during irregular shape problems.

Recent Achievements

One Kurnell tutor recently saw a Year 11 student, who had been struggling with simultaneous equations, finally solve them independently and explain each step without prompting.

Another high schooler made a breakthrough with the sine and cosine rules—she went from mixing up which to use, to confidently choosing and applying the correct formula on her own for tricky exam-style problems.

In a younger session, a Year 4 student who used to avoid mental maths now volunteers answers aloud during warm-ups and completed every question in under two minutes this week, showing real initiative compared to earlier lessons.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Kicking myself for not starting tutor earlier! It would have helped tremendously with Jayden's studies and being able to work independently!

We had the first session with Nick today and he was fantastic! He focused on the right areas and really engaged with Yvette....I think we are on the right track.

Tabinder has made Leon come a long way in the last 2 weeks and he is quite proud of his achievements.

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 Sans Souci Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kurnell Public School.
