Science Tutor Kingswood, NSW
Teach them how to study. I feel that too many students think the only way to study is to read the text book or talk to the teacher. Although these are valid ways I feel that most students don't realise there are other ways to study. I personal prefer to watch videos explaining the subject, draw pictures and diagrams, and then make flash cards.…

First and foremost, a tutor should be able to connect with students on a personal level. The tutor should facilitate students to seek knowledge for themselves. The tutor should establish new ways to help students learn how to do work independently. I possess excellent organizational and communication skills. I also have good subject knowledge and…

An important facet of being a tutor is to be able to explain a particular concept effectively so that a student can understand it. This understanding is of utmost importance as it ensures that the student can correctly answer questions and also retain that mathematical concept in their memory. A tutor must create a relaxed and non-judgmental…

Being able to personally build friendships with the…

Firstly identifying the student's various strengths and areas of improvement is very significant to give a general idea of which topics to focus/skills on the most whilst teaching them. Another key area that a tutor should investigate further is the student's most effective way of learning specific concepts e.g. visual, written, auditory etc. A …

The most important thing a tutor can do is to be open and offer an open exchange of exchange of information that allows a student to freely delve into a subject.

Support. Providing a great amount of support and motivation is crucial for a student’s education path. Without this, a lack of drive would occur which is detrimental to their learning, ultimately affecting their peers around them which acts like the domino effect.

Inside Ropes CrossingTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Alysha focused on mastering multiplication and division skills, especially as they relate to finding gradients using rise over run, while also starting some basic pre-algebra.

For Year 10, Sarah worked through solving simultaneous equations using both algebraic and graphical methods and revisited BODMAS rules alongside operations with fractions for a chapter review.

In Year 11, James tackled non-linear relationships by graphing equations and solving related word problems, building confidence in interpreting real-world contexts through practice questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often overcomplicated simple arithmetic tasks, forgetting basic steps and "getting ahead of himself" when tackling operations, which led to confusion during multi-step problems.

In Year 11 mathematics, missing several school days due to injury left one learner needing to catch up—he struggled with fractions involving different denominators and couldn't recall procedures for worded questions in tests.

Meanwhile, a senior student had difficulty focusing during exams: "made a lot of careless mistakes," noted the tutor after repeated issues with time management.

For one primary student, reliance on drawing groups for multiplication slowed progress in division work.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Ropes Crossing noticed one Year 11 student has stopped relying on graphing software for maths and now completes classwork on time—a big shift from needing extra help before.

Another high schooler, previously unsure about exam technique, recently finished editing an assessment task independently and got it ready for submission without prompting.

In primary, Alysha used to hesitate when she made mistakes but now asks questions whenever she's unsure and applies feedback straight away; last week she completed her homework accurately after practicing division with examples.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Cohen has been very good and encouraging. I feel that Olivia is starting to feel more confident with her maths. Thanks.

Everything is going well with Warit. Evan is happy with him so far. I trust that will continue.  He's comfortable to ask if he doesn't understand something. Warit has given Evan some good maths tips with his times tables that Evan has understood.

Emily is doing very well and Melanie is great. Emily is really comfortable with her and although it is early days she is improving. I am really happy with Melanie and the progress 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 St Marys Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ropes Crossing Public School.
