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…

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 West Wallsend, NSW
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 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…

One of the most important things a tutor can do is focus on the areas that the student is struggling in and create a learning format that best allows the student to increase understanding in those areas and achieve the best mark possible. As a current university student of engineering and physics, I have a good level of understanding of STEM…

Inside WoodrisingTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Tiffany completed a maths skills assessment and then practised volume and capacity problems for cubes and prisms, alongside visual literacy tasks with annotations.

For Year 9, Lachlan focused on financial mathematics by calculating percentages, gross and net pay, as well as exploring wages and salaries using real-world examples.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student worked through the structure of essay writing in English before tackling advanced financial maths concepts including different types of income and salary calculations.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to keep track of unit places when working with larger numbers, leading to confusion during multi-step arithmetic; as one tutor noted, "he sometimes forgot that he took away a place for a number."

In Year 11 Chemistry, review sessions revealed hesitation in using feedback and revising reaction equations independently.

For a Year 12 student preparing for HSC trials, delayed start times and inconsistent exam revision meant "results fell below expectations" after neglecting deeper practice with past questions.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner hesitated to attempt new times tables without reassurance, slowing progress on multiplication foundations.

Recent Achievements

One Woodrising tutor noted that a Year 11 student who used to hesitate when she didn't understand maths concepts is now openly asking questions as soon as something isn't clear, which has helped her grasp tricky topics like indices much more quickly.

Another high schooler recently made a breakthrough in interpreting worded problems: after previously missing key details, he now highlights variables independently and works through multi-step questions with minimal prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who struggled with shape names at first was excited to confidently name all the main 3D shapes without any hints by the end of 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 Speers Point Library, milyaba—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Paul's Catholic College.
