The most important thing a tutor can do is be patient and personable with the student. Tutoring is very different from a school environment, in that the benefits that exist are going at a pace that is suitable to the student's needs. Tutors are understanding and can target specific difficulties in a student's learning. We also not only identify…

I believe tutors need to understand their students, given that not all individuals hold the same skills or pace of learning and as such, need to be taken into consideration or have the lesson plans catered to their needs. Tutors must, nonetheless, put in large amounts of effort to ensure the student receives and understands theory that is taught,…

Inside South WentworthvilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Adam revised index laws and worked through adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions, with a brief introduction to right-angled trigonometry.

For Year 10, Priya focused on writing empirical and word formulae for ionic compounds, including those with polyatomic ions, while also exploring how ionic bonds form using key terminology.

In Year 11 Chemistry, Zara practiced calculating isotope abundance and drawing orbital diagrams, revisited ionic bonding response structure, and was introduced to metallic bonding concepts.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 Chemistry, one student hesitated to answer ionic compound questions without checking notes, revealing a reliance on aids that slowed exam-style practice.

During Year 10 Maths, another struggled with factorising quadratics—notes showed working steps were often skipped or incomplete, making error tracing difficult ("he jumped straight to answers without writing out the expansion").

In a Year 7 English narrative task, perfectionism crept in: frequent erasing and redrafting led to unfinished drafts by lesson's end.

Meanwhile, a senior student preparing for HSC essays left feedback unaddressed between sessions; their main points remained unclear when revisiting the draft.

Recent Achievements

One South Wentworthville tutor saw a Year 11 student who previously mixed up ionic and covalent compounds now confidently naming each type without hesitation, after struggling for weeks.

In Year 10 maths, a student who often guessed at fraction questions started asking clarifying questions instead and managed to correctly solve challenging algebraic fractions by the end of the session.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who had been nervous about reading out loud volunteered to read an entire paragraph from their history text in front of the tutor—something they'd never attempted before.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

An amazing teacher who will have a lasting & positive impact on your child - he did for me. Highly recommend.

Alex and Peter seem like a compatible match and Alex says that he has found the sessions helpful so far. We hope to see some solid gains for Alex in the coming term.

James seems to be grasping what David is teaching him. He is very comfortable with David.

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 Wentworthville Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Hilltop Road Public School.
