Modern History Tutor Point Clare, NSW
Be kind and patient, and be able to adjust learning plans for the student. I am that I am a compassionate person who believes in the potential of all people. Nobody is unable to succeed, they just might require different solutions to the same struggle. I also believe myself to be good at breaking down topics, as I did this multiple times for my…

Provide support both academically and mentally. This can be done through practicing a topic of a subject, and also helping schedule their weeks, so they know they will still have social/leisure time, and maximize their grades and themselves. I am incredibly confident and happy to also learn new things. For example, if a student comes to me and…

I think the most important thing is taking the pressure off being “perfectâ€. There is no such thing as perfection and everyone reaches success differently. What works for one person may not work for another and in standardised exams, this often gets misconstrued, adding to the weight of being the perfect student. My patience and positive…

Leo is a great match for Roy and they both seemed to have made it work from the start. He is approachable and communicates well and Roy understands what and how he is saying things, so, so far so good.

Inside Pretty BeachTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Zac worked on adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions—including switching between mixed and improper forms—and practiced using words like "of" to understand fraction questions in context.

In Year 8, Yillen tackled surface area and volume of shapes as well as applying Pythagoras' theorem to real-life measurement problems, often breaking down each formula step by step.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Aidan focused on rearranging formulas to find unknowns and substituting values into equations, reinforcing these skills through targeted homework questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student left notes and their workbook at school, arriving to a lesson without key materials—this made effective revision before an exam impossible.

In a Year 11 session, a calculator was missing, so the tutor had to work out answers instead; "he didn't have a calculator handy," which interrupted practice with Pi-based questions.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student skipped writing working in column addition, leading to simple mistakes that were hard to spot afterwards.

Without regular home practice (noted for both Years 7 and 9), basic concepts like ratios or significant figures remain shaky going into new topics.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Pretty Beach noticed that one high school student, previously hesitant to speak up, began volunteering answers during problem-solving and could tackle some questions unaided by the end of the lesson.

Another secondary student made a significant shift by openly requesting extra homework for more challenge—something he hadn't done before—and later described how feedback from his teacher helped him identify where he'd gone wrong on an assignment.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who used to need encouragement with money problems is now drawing her own currency diagrams and independently working through addition and subtraction challenges.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I am 100% satisfied with your company and Rick, Alanahs tutor. I will definately call on you if the need arises again and won't hesitate in recommending you if anyone I know required tutoring services.

Although my family has only met Wageesha once, we all felt very comfortable with her. She has a wonderful way with children and communicates very easily with them. Initially my son was very reluctant towards having a tutor however, after working with Wageesha he really enjoyed it and wants to keep going. She is very respectful and easy to talk to. I can already see that she would strive to get the  best from her students.

hi thank you for acting so quickly getting rebecca a tutor  the tutor was very helpful now rebecca feels very confident she has had her 2 hour lesson and is very happy with the results thank you once again regards.

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 Umina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Pretty Beach Public School.
