Recognise which areas of learning a student struggles with and focus to improve these areas instead of rehearsing already understood information. It is also extremely important to encourage students to ask questions and not to be inclined to feel embarrassed. I will attempt to answer these queries to the best of my ability and seek clarification…

Making a student feel comfortable and eager for what they are doing is my priority as a biology tutor (because Math and Science are interesting!!!).

For me, it is to be very patient and never stop giving encouragement. Cause everyone has different learning capabilities but it doesn't mean that because some can learn faster than others, doesn't mean they can no longer do it. We just have to be patient and make them believe in themselves. Patience. Critical Thinker. Problem Solver. Encouraging.…

Responsibility is the first word that comes to my mind. I come from Vietnam, and I have seen very few Australian students who require a biology tutor, comparing to Vietnamese students. If they hire a tutor, they must have a need to improve their academic performance. Hence, a tutor needs to be responsible for them to achieve a better result. I…

I’ll try to become their friend rather than being a typical teacher. Homework and self study will be two of the key tasks of the session. One of my biggest strength as a…

My daughter has only had a few sessions with her wonderful tutor and shown improvements already. Her tutor Shan, is kind, patient and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this service.

Inside Woodville SouthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Mia practised expanding and factorising algebraic expressions, then applied these skills to simplify quadratic expressions.

Year 10 student Daniel focused on trigonometric ratios—using sine, cosine, and tangent for right-angled triangles—and worked through applications involving angles of elevation and bearings.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Sarah consolidated her understanding of time calculations alongside division and multiplication strategies using real-world word problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student arrived at a session without having attempted the assigned factorisation questions; this led to slower progress during class, as noted: "it is important to do more questions prior to the class to have a more productive session."

In Year 10 algebra, skipping written steps—preferring mental calculation—caused confusion with brackets and negatives, which muddled longer problems.

A senior student in trigonometry left diagrams incomplete, which made angle application tasks harder than needed.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student's revision relied only on familiar multiplication facts rather than tackling new or challenging types, limiting retention and confidence when new topics appeared.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Woodville South recently noticed a Year 9 student, who used to rush through answers and make avoidable errors, is now talking through each problem out loud and carefully double-checking her steps—she even asked the tutor to check only if she was really stuck.

In a senior session, another student who previously struggled with rationalising expressions was able to simplify complex surds independently after practicing just a few examples.

Meanwhile, one younger learner showed new independence by reading times from an analogue clock on her own, then drawing those times without needing any hints.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Patrick is a wonderful asset to your company.  It pleases me so much that Patrick has a wonderful understanding of my Son capabilities with in only 5 lessons. Thank you for sending Patrick to us.

Mike has been great and very patient with Chelsea.  Most importantly Chelsea is feeling comfortable with him and starting to open up and ask questions. He is also very organised and we are really happy.

We are very happy with Baily. She is very competent in math, but is also a very good teacher.  She makes learning fun and the boys' relationship with her is developing well. As a person, Baily has a lovely manner about her, is very respectful, but confident.

Biology tutoring in Woodville South

Learning biology is cumulative. Like learning mathematics or other science subjects - it's important to understand the basics before you can tackle complex concepts.

While most students have the right idea on how to approach studying biology, they also need a little push to achieve their goals. We've found that all it takes is the right kind of guidance at the right time.

The local biology tutor in Woodville South we work with are there to assist so that passing and excelling at biology doesn't seem like such a hurdle. What we look for is someone who can adjust to your child's needs, who can observe their study habits and guide them through the learning process. So what does that mean exactly?

Biology Tutor Woodville South

For instance, most students know they should go over past exams and take notes. What students also sometimes do is fixate on individual questions too much and even try to memorise them. While they know what they should be doing, they might not know how to do it. This is why tutoring is invaluable.

All we need to get things started is to have a chat with you to figure out what your child needs. We organise one-on-one biology tutoring in Woodville South, at your home. There are no extra fees, just a simple hourly rate.

And what if you don't like the tutor? No worries, it happens from time to time and we understand that! That's why the first lesson comes as a risk-free trial.

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 Civic Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Woodville Primary School.
