Modern History Tutor Penrith, NSW
When I was at school, my favourite teachers were always the relatable ones who were genuinely interested in me, my hobbies and my life. This connection is important for many reasons, not only to be a good tutor but to also be a confidant in times of crisis. In the past I have worked with children who had special needs. Being close to the student…

Modern History Tutor Plumpton, NSW
A tutor is responsible for easing a child's worry and to make sure that they can do whatever possible to help their student become less anxious and more confident in their work. As a tutor, I believe my empathy and sympathy allows me to form a connection with my students as they do not feel shy to tell my the points they struggle with. This asset…

Throughout my life my parents, tutors and mentors pushed me to get the best marks I could. Despite my marks consistenly being above average, I did not retain the crammed knowledge after exam. It wasn't until I experimented with multiple study techniques that I discovering how to understand knowledge instead of simply repeating the textbooks. I can…

Inside St MarysTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ella worked on addition and subtraction with trading as well as two-digit multiplication.

For Year 10, Daniel tackled trigonometry topics including Pythagoras's theorem and using trigonometric ratios to find unknown sides in right-angled triangles, practicing with step-by-step diagrams.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sarah focused on financial mathematics—specifically simple and compound interest calculations—and reviewed loan repayments within real-life problem scenarios.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student, as noted, "is far behind and not ready for the exam," with time management flagged as a key issue—missed homework and last-minute preparation have left her unable to attempt full past papers in one sitting.

In Year 8 Mathematics, a student avoided copying rules into her exercise book, leading to gaps when trying to apply formulas for geometry.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student struggled with reading clocks and would frequently forget to bring completed worksheets, making it difficult to track progress across weeks. The missed lessons added further inconsistency in building foundational skills.

Recent Achievements

One St Marys tutoring session saw a Year 11 student quickly identify and correct her own mistake in statistics, something she hesitated to do before.

In a Year 9 maths lesson, after several weeks of guided practice, the student began solving trigonometry problems independently instead of waiting for prompts.

A younger primary learner who used to avoid homework started bringing her textbook each week and now completes tasks without reminders. The last session ended with her finishing all assigned questions by herself for the first time.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Claire found Samir to be a great tutor - very knowledgeable, encouraging and helpful :-)

Tuition sessions are going on really well as my son has had considerable improvements in Maths with better grades ( jumped from C to A) and much better conceptual understanding of several difficult topics. He finds Ben a gentle and consistent tutor who has kept a wonderful rapport with him. They have also covered some topics in English which helped quite a bit. I would certainly recommend Benjamin as a very helpful and effective tutor for teenagers.

Jenny is an excellent tutor. She was incredibly patient with Zoe and a really good teacher. Zoe was really happy and confident working with her and felt safe to ask questions and sometimes because of her illness she could not really concentrate but Jenny stayed patient and really worked well with her. I highly recommend Jenny.

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 St Marys Public School.
