Physics Tutor Buttaba, NSW
I think fostering curiosity and confidence are the most important things a physics tutor can do for a student. Technical knowledge is obviously extremely important, however, I think building solid study foundations is something a student will carry with them for the rest of their lives. As a current university student, I understand the frustration…

Physics 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…

Inside RathminesTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 Tiffany completed a diagnostic assessment to identify focus areas in maths, while Year 9 Chloe practiced structuring essays and tackled financial maths topics such as wages and salaries.

For Year 10 Sam, sessions focused on calculating gross and net pay with percentages in financial mathematics, along with reinforcing these concepts through real-life examples.

Meanwhile, Year 8 Mia worked through problems involving the volume and capacity of cubes and prisms using diagrams, alongside visual literacy annotation exercises.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student had difficulty recalling key area and volume formulas for composite shapes, leading to uncertainty in multi-step problems—she was unsure which formula to use when finding volume, one tutor observed.

In Year 11 Financial Maths, forgetting to complete set homework meant class time was lost re-covering basic concepts like converting weeks to fortnights.

For a Year 4 learner, messy written work during fraction addition made errors harder to spot and slowed correction.

A lack of consistent out-of-session practice in times tables also left several students across Years 5–8 feeling less confident when put on the spot during lessons.

Recent Achievements

In a high school session, Tiffany, who previously hesitated to ask for help, spoke up whenever she felt stuck on indices and worked through each problem until she understood the process.

Another high school student, Aanika, showed new independence by tackling linear equations using strategies learned in past lessons—she solved questions without waiting for hints.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who once relied on finger counting now adds and subtracts mentally and even drew accurate times on an analogue clock unaided during their session.

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 Wangi Library Creative Hub, wanji wanji—or at your child's school (with permission), like Rathmines Public School.
