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…

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…

The purpose of a tutor is to provide a one-on-one learning experience; thus, a tutor should be able to adapt to their student's specific needs. A tutor needs to identify weak areas and improve them but also foster confidence in students strong areas. Obviously, a tutor should be well versed in the content that they're teaching. Please note,…

In doing so, it makes the intake of knowledge easier and an overall more enjoyable experience. A tutor must also show a genuine interest in…

Inside Speers PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Tiffany completed a diagnostic assessment to pinpoint gaps in key maths areas, then worked on understanding the structure of essays and tackled financial maths concepts like wages and salaries.

For Year 10, lessons with Lucy focused on solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formula and completing the square, as well as practising algebraic techniques for simultaneous equations through worked examples.

Meanwhile, Grade 3 student Julian reviewed addition and subtraction with both two-digit and larger numbers, after consolidating knowledge of faces, edges, and vertices in geometry using practical question sets.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Chemistry, a student hesitated to take feedback on titration calculations, instead repeating the same process without checking for errors—"she just needed to follow everything step by step and have that confidence."

Meanwhile, a Year 9 maths student struggled with time management during tests; missing steps led to "results below expectations" even when concepts were understood.

In Year 6, creative writing tasks were left incomplete due to low confidence and reluctance to draft ideas.

For a senior HSC candidate, workload planning fell short—practising only familiar questions meant deeper issues in exam technique remained hidden until results arrived.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Speers Point noticed that one Year 11 student, who previously hesitated to ask for clarification, began openly communicating when she didn't understand indices problems—leading her to solve them more independently.

Another high schooler made a clear shift from skipping steps to writing out each stage of worded questions, which helped him interpret complex problems he'd struggled with before.

Meanwhile, a younger student who initially found new maths terminology confusing gradually started using the correct terms on his own by the end of the session and confidently named all main 3D shapes without prompting.

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 Speers Point Library, milyaba—or at your child's school (with permission), like Biddabah Public School.
