Science Tutor Adamstown, NSW
Teaching minds, touching hearts, transforming lives. Aside from the mastery of the subject being taught, developing a genuine bond between tutor and student, helping them apply or understand the gravity or importance of their study and why they should not take it for granted. In other words, helping them not only in the four corners of the…

Science Tutor Charlestown, NSW
Helping a student to enjoy a subject, or at the very least succeed, is a major thing to help them through school. Everyone has different needs, and a tutor helps accommodate those needs in an efficient way. Inspiration can go a long way, and improving their enjoyment of a subject may set them up for a future they love. When I tutored my friends in…

Science Tutor Callaghan, NSW
According to me, a tutor must collaborate with his students to set realistic goals for them in the short as well as long term. Apart from that, a tutor should definitely empower students with effective study methods, time management strategies, and organizational techniques as it encourages them to develop independence in their learning journey.…

Science Tutor Speers Point, NSW
The most important thing by far is engagement. Tutoring is good, although it can only do so much if the students interest is elsewhere. The best thing a tutor can do is help the student engage more in school as the student will spend 80% of their time in the classroom and 20% with a tutor so using that 80% to your advantage is the most important…

In my experience there are parts of courses that a student can not or would not understand on their own, however through my assistance to understand road blocks in course content and as a result help resolve and navigate them to me is the most important aspect of the job. I can explain course content in a manner students would find engaging and…

Inside KotaraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 3 student Julian revised faces, edges, and vertices of 3D shapes before moving on to addition and subtraction with both two-digit and larger numbers.

In Year 9, Olivia focused on probability using Venn diagrams and two-way tables, working through worded problems to build confidence.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Lucas practised financial mathematics by interpreting multi-step worded questions about compound interest and depreciation, including rearranging relevant equations for his upcoming topic test.

Recent Challenges

During Year 11 Chemistry sessions, one student struggled to interpret questions using formulas correctly—"review of tritation calculations" came up repeatedly.

A Year 8 student's test performance flagged weak time management; as a tutor observed, "we identified Julian's weakness's such as time management during tests."

In Year 3 maths, confusion over unit places and writing numbers beyond thousands meant extra effort went into reworking basic steps rather than building new skills.

For a senior student preparing for HSC Physics, shallow formal responses revealed that exam question depth was not being addressed, which became evident when trial results fell below expectations.

Recent Achievements

A Kotara tutor noticed a big shift with one high school student who used to get stuck on multi-step financial maths questions—now, he works through conversions and period changes on his own and even asks for harder problems.

Another secondary student has become much more thorough; instead of skipping steps when tackling worded probability questions, he now writes everything down and checks each stage, which led him to correctly solve problems he struggled with just weeks ago.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner who found shape names confusing at first can now confidently name all main 3D shapes without hesitation.

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 Charlestown Library, walyamayi—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kotara South Public School.
