I think the most important thing a chemistry tutor can do for a student is to help them understand the course content- so they can pass assessment- and also to help them understand other aspects of the subject they need or want to understand, either for the sake of curiosity or because they have some use for it. It is best if this understanding is…

Finding gaps in a students knowledge and helping to fill them, facilitating a student to learn at their own pace and in their own way, and ensuring that the student can handle problems without my help once they've learned the concept.

As a chemistry tutor remaining persistence and professional are two important qualities that I bring to any student I teach. Any student can learn and understand their true potential, this comes through clarity and how you explain things in a way that makes in easy to understand since all students learn in a different way. And I take this approach…

The most important thing a chemistry tutor can do is to practice empathy in order to ensure the student knows they're in a safe environment where they are allowed to make mistakes and learn from them.

Tutors fill a different role than teachers and parents, and that puts them in a unique position to support students. Personal relationships are foundational to student success -- the more connected a student feels to his or her tutor, the more the tutor creates trust and respect, essential ingredients for students to learn well.

The most important thing a tutor can do is to be supportive. Even the students struggling the most always have something they're doing well.

Be patient with them.

A tutor should identify the students' areas of weakness and focus on helping the students gain knowledge in these areas rather than teaching the student what they already know.

Inside Peakhurst HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Charlotte practised area and surface area calculations for both simple and composite shapes, using visual examples to support understanding.

Year 8 student Josh focused on solving linear equations and working with indices in the context of fractions, also touching briefly on geometry concepts.

For Year 10 student Mia, sessions covered financial mathematics including both simple and compound interest problems, along with strategies for breaking down worded exam questions into step-by-step solutions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 mathematics, one student's written work was described as "messy and hard to follow," particularly during algebraic manipulation; this made it easy for small sign errors to go unnoticed until the very end.

A Year 10 student, despite a strong grasp of trigonometric basics, struggled with multi-step problems because they rarely practiced challenging questions—preferring only familiar drills.

Meanwhile, in Year 6, a learner relied heavily on mental calculations instead of writing steps out, leading to frequent mistakes in surface area problems. "Mental maths is a huge time killer," their tutor observed after several sessions spent correcting basic multiplication slips rather than advancing.

Recent Achievements

One Peakhurst Heights tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student who had struggled with algebraic expansion; by the end of their session, she was confidently working through problems that had previously tripped her up.

Another high schooler, after several sessions on trigonometry, began attempting more challenging questions independently and even requested extra examples to solidify new rules—something he hesitated to do before.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student who used to stay quiet now speaks up when unsure and takes notes on tricky steps so she can revisit them during homework.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Andrew is very happy with Stephen's tutorials. They have already formed a very healthy teacher student relationship, and Andrew is enjoying his Maths.  He got everything correct in a test he did at school last week.  The only thing that was incorrect was the fact that his decimal point was not in the correct place.

Just letting you know that Layla is gaining a lot from Jacob and in only three weeks.  Her confidence is starting to grow little by little and she is trying more on her own which is great to see.

Everything is going well. Lizzy and I are very happy with Michael and pleased with her results so far.

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 Penshurst Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Georges River College Peakhurst Campus.
