Science Tutor Long Jetty, NSW
By first giving the student the necessary skills to complete a range of questions this equips them with the tools to complete any question. I then allow the student to make the mistake first and learn from it by helping them change what they did. This is then followed up with an example response to a question then the student is given the chance…

Science Tutor Tumbi Umbi, NSW
I think the most important things a tutor can do are to build the student's confidence, explain concepts in a way that suits their learning style, and create a supportive environment where they feel comfortable asking questions. It's not just about giving them the answers, it's about helping them understand the process so they can become…

I believe the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, adapt to their learning style, and create a safe space for questions and mistakes. It's not just about helping them understand the content. It’s about helping them believe they can understand it. A good tutor should be patient, encouraging, and…

Science Tutor Shelly Beach, NSW
I believe one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is be encouraging and understanding. As a student it can be hard and that is the reason you are getting tutoring. So to have someone encourage you can be a great reason to keep learning. I think my strengths as a tutor would be my patience and communication skills, as they are…

Sidney

Science Tutor Shelly Beach, NSW
I think that as a tutor you must listen to what your student needs and give that to them. Each student will learn differently so it is extremely important that as a tutor you tailor your teaching approach to that student and their needs in order for them to learn best. As I just left school in 2021 I have a good understanding of the pressures and…

Personalise the students lesson towards their learning perspectives and needs. Not every student is the same and nor will they learn the same. its important to be adaptable, and use different approaches when needed to for the maximum success of the students learning. I came from a background of going from a level of Math 1 learning in year 11 and…

Inside Long JettyTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ben practised multiplication and division using different visual strategies and worked on understanding subtraction fundamentals.

In Year 11, Olivia focused on coordinate geometry and trigonometry by solving application questions with diagrams to support reasoning.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student James tackled Chemistry concepts like equilibrium and solubility product calculations alongside advanced Mathematics topics including integration techniques and probability scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Physics, a student's written responses became overly long and disorganized; as one tutor noted, "answers are way too extensive," making revision difficult.

In Year 8 Maths, a student struggled to start unfamiliar problems, often needing to reread the textbook before attempting questions.

Anxiety under timed conditions led another high schooler to lose focus during assessments.

For a Year 4 reading task, motivation dipped when tackling non-fiction texts—writing quickly resulted in spelling errors and missing key details.

During primary maths revision, not writing down working meant important steps were forgotten by the next session.

Recent Achievements

A Long Jetty tutor recently noticed Mohit, a high school student, shifting from quietly listening to actively asking questions whenever he's unsure—something he hesitated to do just weeks ago.

In Year 11 chemistry, he also started working out tough concepts on his own before checking with the tutor, showing much more independence than at the start of term.

Meanwhile, Amari in Year 5 moved past guessing through multiplication and now recites his 2 and 3 times tables smoothly without prompts.

Charlie, in early primary, read a full Dr Seuss book aloud after refusing longer stories last month.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I would like to say that Sultan was a fantastic tutor for Daniel and I feel sad to have to end the tutoring with him. In the short time that he was tutoring Daniel, Daniel learnt a lot in maths. Could you please let Sultan know and please let him know how happy I was with him as a tutor for Daniel.

Vibhuti has been good so far, very nice and punctual. My daughter seems to get along with her well and I imagine they will get more productive as the time passes.

So far, so good with Jie tutoring Charlie. Jie is professional, organised, and has warm and friendly nature.

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 The Entrance Library & Council Services—or at your child's school (with permission), like Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic Primary School.
