1. Being patient with a student until they have confidently understood and topic and can answer questions about it. 2. Changing your method of explanation depending on how the student learns ideas. 3. Being able to always be contacted, so the tutor can answer emergency questions, or reschedule an appointment. 1.

For me, the most important thing a physics tutor can do is instead of providing answers, guide students to find the answers themselves so that they learn and engage with the subject. A tutor should also be a kind, sympathetic face, they are not a teacher delivering content to a wide range of students and so should attempt to tailor the experience…

The most important thing a physics tutor can do for a student is to explain concepts and problems in a way that student will be able to understand.

By doing this, a tutor can assist the student the best they can while also challenging the student to try something new and…

It is important for tutors to explain the concept in a way that gives the student true understanding rather than just a shortcut for test questions.

The tutor's ability to adapt to a student's learning style is crucial. Not every student can be taught in the same manner.

During class time, students…

A tutor needs to be reminded that it's their student they have to make better, not themselves, hence most of the time we should end up giving tasks to students and let them solve them themselves. Only to interrupt them when they are stuck or can't get over a problem, we should remember that we are more of assistants rather than problem solvers…

Often it is the response from students that they'll never have to remember or use the content they learn again in their life, but that misses the fact that the act of learning these subjects, establishes a new kind of problem solving brain-wiring in your mind.

Inside Mount ClaremontTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Jack worked through fractions and percentages, using visual models to build confidence with calculations.

For Year 10, Emily focused on all types of quadratic equations, including factorising, completing the square, and graphing quadratics from word problems.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sarah concentrated on exam revision by tackling practice questions involving linear functions and inequalities as well as a variety of trigonometry problems, especially those featuring bearings.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 trigonometry, a tutor noted "he needs to learn how to apply the methods taught, not just use them," highlighting a reliance on formulas without connecting concepts—this left him uncertain in non-standard problems.

In Year 11, one student struggled with test planning: "James should also learn to only spend a mark a minute on questions in order to not spend too much time on one solution," leading to unfinished sections despite knowing the material.

Meanwhile, in Year 7 algebra, incomplete written working and missing steps meant errors went unnoticed until revision, which delayed improvement and created frustration during practice sessions.

Recent Achievements

In Mount Claremont, a high school student who used to get stuck on quadratic equations is now confidently converting them to turning point form and tackling tougher textbook problems without hesitation.

Another older student, who previously struggled with showing his working out, has started writing out each step clearly instead of trying to solve everything mentally—a change that's made a real difference in his test results.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who once guessed at fraction questions now asks for help when unsure, leading her to correctly add and subtract fractions on her own this week.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are very pleased with Jame's tutors and wish to continue with both maths and English.

Jennifer has been amazing. Lily will miss her weekly sessions - she has learned a lot because of Jennifers quietly persistent style.

Physics tutoring in Mount Claremont

Looking for a physics tutor in Mount Claremont? We can make it happen!

Learning science takes a lot of effort. Students not only need to know the content, but how they can use concepts, when they can use them and why it's the right approach in a given situation.

Scientific thinking isn't easily acquired, but the skills are useful across fields and many future careers are built on them. It's a fascinating field with many applications - that's why students choose to put in the time and learn it.

Most students manage to stay afloat or even excel at physics all on their own, they master most steps along the way. However, sooner or later everyone needs help.

Physics Tutor Mount Claremont

Learning how to analyse and solve problems as physicists do is an enormous leap. So how can you get involved and make it just a bit easier for your child?

One way to lift the burden off your child's shoulders is finding someone who will be there when they need it. If they have someone they can relate to, with the right approach at the right time, students tend to achieve their goals easier.

This is how to get started.

Once you reach out to us we can allocate a local Mount Claremont physics tutor within a day or two.

We set up the first lesson at your home, whenever works for you, and we charge a simple hourly rate. The first lesson comes with a money-back guarantee.

Sounds simple enough?

The only thing left to do is give us a call!
