Adapt to their skill level and provide personalized teaching that they don't receive at school. I know how difficult it can be to learn when the teaching is tailored to 10+ students, so I believe being a chemistry tutor means being highly adaptable and willing to change in order to meet the student where they are at academically. I am very patient…

A tutor can have a positive impact on the student’s study cycle. Focusing 1 on 1 ensures that the student receives the material in an explained and eased way. However, the tutor allocates certain time and effort for the student that gives individualised attention rather than being in crowd. I have positive attitude how to pass study material in…

Inside Neutral BayTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Charlotte revised long division and unit fractions using practice questions and homework review.

In Year 8, Hannah tackled index laws as well as multiplication and division of exponentials, with targeted exercises to strengthen her skills.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ruby focused on solving linear equations that included combining like terms, and worked through algebraic inequalities—practising number line notation and remembering to flip the inequality sign when dividing by a negative.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student in maths struggled with remembering to write out all working steps, especially when solving algebra equations. As one tutor noted, "forgetting to keep negative signs clear in working led to confusion and extra corrections."

In Year 10, another learner hesitated to complete set Naplan practice papers independently—homework was often skipped or replaced with easier tasks.

A senior student tackling bearing and trigonometry questions found it difficult to retain new strategies without regular note-taking or revision, as lessons revealed gaps when reviewing past topics. Missing homework meant these gaps lingered until the next session.

Recent Achievements

One Neutral Bay tutor noticed a real shift with a Year 10 student who used to make frequent "silly mistakes" in trigonometry; after revisiting problem steps and focusing on targeted examples, she now works through bearing questions almost entirely independently.

Another high school student recently began volunteering her own strategies for tough algebraic equations instead of waiting for hints, reflecting stronger self-direction than just weeks ago.

Meanwhile, in Year 5 maths, a student who struggled with fractions is now confidently using the "pie method" to solve problems without prompting—she completed every question on her own this session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Sam's first session with Wahidah went really well. He really liked her and responded well to her teaching.

Riria had a great first session with Derek. Riria found Derek to be patient and clear with his communication making it easier for Riria to get her head around what is being asked of her in regards to her physics lessons and assessments.

Cameron has been enjoying the time spent with Ryan. They get along well. Cameron is gaining confidence, both in doing his maths work and asking for help.

Chemistry tutoring in Neutral Bay

Why would you ever need to know about combustion, corrosion, and electrochemical processes? Most students wonder about that too, especially if they don't plan on going into science.

Chemistry can seem abstract, learning about elements and matter, how equilibrium occurs and how chemical systems react. No wonder students get discouraged.

Chemistry Tutor Neutral Bay

All it takes for a student to go from a mild distaste for chemistry to understanding what is scribbled in the textbook is someone to point out what to avoid and where to put in that extra hour of revision. It's like with any problem situation in schooling and even in their personal life, students need to know about using effective strategies. Then all you need is persistence, staying on task until you reach your goal.

If your child is struggling in school, chances are you've already thought about finding a tutor. Be it passing a test, getting your child’s grade up or preparing for a career in science, we work with local Neutral Bay chemistry tutors who can get your child to stand on their own two feet. This is how we do it.

We organise one-on-one lessons at your home, at a time that fits your schedule. There are no hidden fees, just a simple hourly rate.

Not happy with the first lesson? No need to worry, it comes as a risk-free trial and we find you another local chemistry tutor in Neutral Bay who is a better match.
