Science Tutor Wurtulla, QLD
I feel that the most important things are creating a passion within the student for the subject and boosting their confidence and self-esteem. I am confident and articulate and thus would be able to communicate effectively with my student. I am also hardworking and would put in all the necessary effort to ensure my student realises his/her goals.…

Inside WurtullaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Summer worked on reading analogue clocks and using number lines to solve addition and subtraction problems.

Year 8 student Rebecca focused on multiplying and dividing like terms in algebra as well as understanding rates, tackling practice questions from her homework.

For Year 11, Ryan tackled solving trigonometric equations and briefly reviewed trig identities, working through examples to strengthen his skills for upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 engineering student was encouraged to ask more questions in class and clarify assignment expectations, but often hesitated—leading to uncertainty when adapting QCAA exemplar tasks.

In maths, another high schooler's lesson showed skipped steps during equations; as noted, "he skipped showing working in algebra, which hid sign errors."

One senior student relied heavily on school resources for prototyping instead of independently extending ideas, which slowed progress on open-ended projects.

Meanwhile, a younger student left several homework exercises unfinished and forgot key materials for maths revision. These habits meant extra time spent catching up or repeating similar mistakes in new contexts.

Recent Achievements

One Wurtulla tutoring session saw a Year 11 student who used to hesitate with complex calculus now confidently tackle product and quotient rules, even recalling chain rule steps from memory after struggling before.

A Year 8 student who once needed lots of prompting is now independently identifying tricky maths questions, then using hints to get the right answer—showing real growth in self-awareness and initiative.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner who was previously distracted during writing tasks recently typed out an assignment introduction without losing focus or needing redirection.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are more than pleased with Kai's maths progress. I can tell that Ben is such a good tutor because he had described Kai exactly in his report. All Kai's school teachers throughout his school years have wanted Kai to speak up in class. Kai isn't shy when he's relaxed and comfortable, it's just in those environments I guess he's quieter. I hope he gets the confidence to speak up soon and I think with Ben he will and I am looking forward to the tips he can give to Kai.

Really happy with the tutoring and Stephen is great, really professional. My son is feeling a lot more positive about catching up so really happy.

You have hit the Jackpot!  Georgina is very happy with Stephen. Many thanks for all your efforts.

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 Caloundra Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Talara Primary College.
