To be there for a student in a more personal and approachable way than the modern education system and its teachers can be, to help 'fill in the gaps' that the student may have missed in class and to be there for the student if they feel like the education system has failed them. Too many schools focus on the groups needs rather than the…

To provide them with the skills and confidence they need to succeed in our society, both in academia and in their own personal affairs. Most importantly, to teach them why they should have such, so that they aren't coerced into doing things they don't believe in. Otherwise, they won't be happy and content, and their determination will suffer.…

In my honest opinion, offering to help with their academic performances is not the most important things but it is to be there for my student. To be a supportive person who respect their personality, their actions, their way of life. I might not be the smartest tutor who can help them solve every homework but I will be there for them to listen, to…

Although my goal is to see them be at the top of their class, it is more important to see improvements in their tutor lessons and use the knowledge I give them at school to refine their skills I am very easy going and I have a lot of patience.

Modern History Tutor Keiraville, NSW
A tutor must not tell a student how to do something, but show and allow them to learn it. Consequently, the student will be able to apply what they have learned through their own capabilities. Additionally, a tutor should be able to infuse some interest in the subject even if the student finds no particular interest in the subject. This may seem…

As it is said, "Teacher is the second parent of the child", I believe apart from the bookish knowledge, a teacher also mentors and guides a student in life skills. A tutor can change the way a child perceives the environment in an optimistic manner. I have great communication skills and ability to build a rapport with the student. I'm a fun…

Local Reviews

An efficient service with simple fast access to a high quality tutor that was carefully selected to tutor my child and her individual needs.
Nadine, Woonona

Inside WoononaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Remi focused on multiplication and division homework, along with rapid-fire equations and tackling calendar/time questions.

In Year 7, Grace worked through algebraic expressions—collecting like terms and multiplying pronumerals—using step-by-step examples.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Sam practiced applying the Pythagoras theorem to exam-style problems and reviewed rates and ratios using sample worded questions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student hesitated to complete homework and avoided reading assigned texts, showing reluctance especially when tasks fell outside his interests.

In maths, he resisted writing out working—"he believed the answer to be enough by itself"—which led to errors being missed during revision.

During a senior lesson, exam pressure left one student overwhelmed, causing him to forget previously learned content while tackling new algebraic topics.

Meanwhile, a primary-aged learner struggled with focus and sometimes skipped steps in subtraction exercises, particularly when distracted by drawings or after a stressful school day; this made consolidating core skills more difficult.

Recent Achievements

During a Woonona tutoring session, a high school student, Max, shifted from brushing aside spelling and writing tasks with defeatist comments to independently revising his English drafts—tackling larger words and recount writing without giving up.

Another tutor noted a Year 9 student who used to rely heavily on hints now reworking missed exam questions solo and nailing the correct answers on his own.

Meanwhile, Remi in Year 4, once hesitant with word problems and basic addition, is now reading time questions confidently and flying through perimeter challenges—using finger counting openly after being encouraged that it's a valid strategy.
