Modern History Tutor Hamlyn Terrace, NSW
I believe the most important thing is to have a routine, be reliable, and to have the student be a part of every decision in their learning. My time with a student is not about a test or exam. It is about creating the skills for a student to be able to improve as they move through school and beyond. This is something that is going to be…

Modern History Tutor Hamlyn Terrace, NSW
The most important thing a tutor could do is create a safe environment for the student. Learning can be more comprehensive and explicit once the student is comfortable around their tutor’s presence. The tutor also must maintain and adhere to an elaborate study plan to help the student. I am very patient and would never snap even on being asked…

Sophie is amazing. She's developed a great relationship with my 13-year-old daughter. It's been a joy to watch my child's confidence grow with Sophie's calm approach, patience and support. My daughter isn't stressed about maths anymore and enjoys working through challenges with Sophie. Wish I'd done this sooner!

Inside Tacoma SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Simran worked on solving simultaneous equations and practiced applying algebraic principles to tackle inequalities.

In Year 9, Sienna focused on graphing directly proportional relationships and explored further work with surds and ratios using visual examples.

Meanwhile, Year 4 student Ruby learned about the place value of digits in large numbers and built confidence with long addition through step-by-step written practice.

Recent Challenges

The Year 10 student struggled to recall steps after eagerly working through problems—"he tends to forget the steps after eagerly doing them," a tutor noted—which made it hard to consolidate simultaneous equations and inequalities before time ran out.

In Year 8, messy or unclear written work meant sign errors slipped by during multi-step equations, so extra time was spent tracing mistakes rather than progressing.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner hesitated when 'carrying the one' in long addition, often erasing answers and starting over instead of fixing small errors directly. This slowed confidence and made checking work stressful.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Tacoma South noticed Josh, a high school student, finally worked out simultaneous equations using substitution after struggling with algebra for some time—he even identified where he'd gone wrong before.

In another session, a Year 10 student showed cleaner, more organised working when factorising and now solves equations without hesitation, a big shift from his earlier confusion.

Meanwhile, Ruby in Year 3 figured out on her own why multiplication works the same way regardless of order and confidently multiplied several numbers together without help.
