Geography Tutor Bonnells Bay, NSW
I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is listen to what they don’t understand and coming up with different ways that relate to that child that will help them to understand the question, and any other future questions based on the same problem. I am patient and understanding allowing me to have multiple approaches to…

Inside Nords WharfTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Claudia worked on adding and subtracting like fractions, and also practiced multiplying fractions together.

Year 6 student Leonardo focused on converting between decimals and basic tenths fractions, then moved to simple addition of fractions using diagrams for clarity.

Meanwhile, Year 7 student Nina revised solving linear equations as well as profit and loss calculations in preparation for upcoming assessment tasks.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 Maths, a student hesitated to show working for factorisation questions—confidence dropped when asked under time pressure, even though she understood the methods. As one tutor noted, "her confidence leaves her once she is put on the spot."

In Year 8 English, another student struggled to transfer verbal ideas into written form; messy handwriting and disorganized drafts slowed progress during creative writing sessions.

Missed homework in Year 7 meant that valuable lesson time was spent re-covering old material rather than moving ahead.

When test revision focused only on familiar topics, gaps in harder times tables persisted into classwork.

Recent Achievements

In a Nords Wharf tutoring session, one high school student tackled linear equations independently after weeks of hesitation—she now works through multi-step problems without waiting for prompts.

Another secondary student, who previously mixed up perimeter and area formulas, started checking her own working line by line and even caught a small mistake before the tutor noticed.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who used to guess answers quietly now writes out her times tables on a whiteboard and asks for help when stuck instead of giving up; last lesson, she chose to test herself with shuffled cards and got every answer right.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I would like to thank you for providing a wonderful service to us.  We were recommended to you by a friend of my daughters and this being the first time we had sought a tutor, we weren't really sure what to do or how to go about it.  You made the whole process simple and easy for us.  Even though the initial tutor didn't relate to my daughter, there was no problem with us changing to another tutor.  This wonderful young woman was just the right person for my daughter.  They both understood each other and my daughter approached her year 12 maths exam with so much more certainty and knowledge.  We won't know for a while yet, the result of the exam but my daughter feels very confident about it.

WE are very happy with Jades work with Tanisha, Tanisha is very comfortable with Jade.  Tanisha has improved with her maths so far thanks to Jades help.

I just wanted to let you know that Arielle's recent yearly Maths marks were the best she has ever had. Usually he marks are in the high 30's ( the test is out of 60) but this time she scored 50 out of 60! Arielle was thrilled and I know this has really boosted her confidence regarding her Maths abilities as she always felt Maths was too hard. I have noticed a definite change in her attitude to Maths tutoring with Ivan. She no longer dreads the session and is able to remain focused and attentive the whole time. This has given her the confidence to begin her new school next year with a positive attitude towards Maths.

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 Swansea Library, kariyawangba—or at your child's school (with permission), like Nords Wharf Public School.
