I believe the most important things a biology tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, adapt to their learning style, and create a safe space for questions and mistakes. It's not just about helping them understand the content. It’s about helping them believe they can understand it. A good tutor should be patient, encouraging,…

Biology Tutor Shelly Beach, NSW
By first giving the student the necessary skills to complete a range of questions this equips them with the tools to complete any question. I then allow the student to make the mistake first and learn from it by helping them change what they did. This is then followed up with an example response to a question then the student is given the chance…

I believe one of the most important things a biology tutor can do for a student is be encouraging and understanding. As a student it can be hard and that is the reason you are getting tutoring. So to have someone encourage you can be a great reason to keep learning. I think my strengths as a tutor would be my patience and communication skills, as…

I believe that tutors should provide all-round mentorship to students and that this is one of the most important things that can come of tutoring; helping them to feel more confident in approaching problems they have in their everyday lives and to search for the answers to the questions that they have about the world around them. I am very patient…

We have had great improvement with Samuel from the very first lesson. He has changed my son Thomas's attitude and application to his studies. Thank you SAM.

Inside TerrigalTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Olivia tackled area of rectangles and triangles, including breaking down complex shapes into simpler parts to calculate total area.

Year 7 Zac worked through operations with fractions—adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing—as well as understanding mixed and improper fractions in word problems.

For Year 10, Sarah focused on algebraic skills by practicing factorising and expanding expressions using a range of example problems.

Recent Challenges

Persistent issues with focus and reluctance to attempt set homework meant "it was difficult to get her back on track" and slowed progress through key concepts for a Year 8 student.

In Year 9, messy and scattered working in graphing tasks made errors harder to spot, with one tutor observing, "her working out was in three different parts of the page."

A senior student tackling HSC maths sometimes left numbers misaligned when setting out work, leading to calculation mistakes that interrupted problem-solving flow.

When attention drifted during lessons, basic operations took longer and foundational skills couldn't be consolidated.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Terrigal noticed that Olivia, a high school student, now independently applies area formulas to complex shapes and consistently writes out her working, after previously forgetting key steps.

In another session, Keeley—a senior—has moved from struggling with equations to manipulating them more confidently and can now identify gradient and y-intercept without prompting.

For a younger student, Charlie was reluctant to read higher-level stories at first but recently sat down to read several pages on his own after some encouragement. At the end of that lesson, he even picked up a book unprompted and read for a few minutes independently.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Richard is a really lovely young man. He is very patient and good at explaining concepts. He is working really well with Annah and I think even in the 3 weeks we have had so far her understanding and confidence is growing.

Since Diali has started working with Brendan I have seen her motivation to engage in maths skyrocket. Prior, it took a great deal of coaxing to get her to do her homework, let alone to do anything extra relating to maths. Brendan has provided Diali with cause for a notable increase in her enthusiasm, sense of being encouraged, confidence and her incentive to work on her maths. She completes Brendan's assigned homework with enthusiasm (except when she is too tired at the end of the day) and she is practicing her times-tables with less resistance! She is looking forward to her next maths tutorial with Brendan. Brendan has a gentle, helpful and very supportive approach and he relates superwell to children. We are really so happy to have the support of Brendan as Diali's tutor.

We're proud of our son is achieving better results and thanks to a good tutor also who's I believe showing him the way also.

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 Erina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Terrigal Public School.
