Physics Tutor Avalon Beach, NSW
I believe that the most important thing that a physics tutor can do for a student is listen to/watch for what they're struggling with most, and focus on that. Optimising the time you have with them will make sure that they can improve more quickly. I believe that my strengths as a tutor include my enthusiasm and passion for mathematics, and I try…

Edward

Physics Tutor Bilgola Plateau, NSW
One main thing I realised was important for a physics tutor is to not expect the student to learn/understand things in the exact same way you do. Being open to hearing how a student learns best and being able to vary the teaching style is vital. I think I am quite adaptable and can explain singular concepts in many different ways depending on…

Physics Tutor Church Point, NSW
The most important thing a physics tutor can do is to provide the student with deep understanding of concepts so that the student can approach future challenges with the confidence that they can work through it on their own, even if it is unfamiliar. There is so much more to mathematics than just memorisation as so many people believe, they key is…

Physics Tutor Mona Vale, NSW
One of the most important things a physics tutor can do for a student is give them a personalised teaching experience. Often there are other factors at play in the progress of a student's learning than just their mental ability. Being able to recognise and connect to the child will open up numerous learning pathways to allow them to reach their…

Physics Tutor Mona Vale, NSW
I believe the most important aspect of tutoring is targeting a student's goal in a subject, whether that be just passing or scoring 100%, and teaching them at that level, whilst providing that extra push to potentially help them succeed above these goals. In doing so, I believe this allows students to engage more with the work and see strong…

Physics Tutor Mona Vale, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to accompany them upon their academic journey, and helping them along the way. A tutor should also make it their priority to create and harbor a positive learning environment, providing adequate praise and encouragement, as the most important thing is that students see the value in education…

Peter

Physics Tutor Elanora Heights, NSW
I think the biggest benefit a tutor can have is to help instill in a student a sense of confidence in their ability to learn. Regardless of how much subject matter a student is able to retain, they will have a lot of learning to do beyond when they are being tutored, so I believe it is at least as important for students to be ‘learning how to…

Physics Tutor Elanora Heights, NSW
It's the responsibility of a tutor to meet students where they are at. Tutors should come to learn the boundaries of what their students do and do not understand and create structure and context for pushing those boundaries to ultimately envelop the knowledge they need to succeed. This can sometimes mean "back-filling" missing knowledge or…

Inside Avalon BeachTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Alex focused on area and perimeter of rectangles and triangles, then applied these skills to composite shapes using step-by-step breakdowns.

In Year 8, Jamie worked through surface area and volume calculations for cylinders, pyramids, and cones, practicing with real-world examples.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sam tackled trigonometry problems involving angles of elevation and depression, building confidence by drawing diagrams to visualise each scenario.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 algebra, one student sometimes makes small mistakes while substituting/simplifying expressions—messy layout in working made it hard to catch errors before moving on.

For a Year 10 task on bearings and financial maths, missing formulas slowed progress; the formula sheet wasn't referenced even when available.

In Year 6 geometry, imprecise diagrams (needs to be more careful and precise when drawing shapes given the dimensions) meant answers didn't match the question.

A senior student tackling logarithms relied heavily on notes for index laws rather than recalling them—this delayed problem-solving during class examples.

Recent Achievements

One Avalon Beach tutor noticed a Year 11 student finally nailed the chain rule for differentiation, after weeks of confusion with product and quotient rules—she now works through multi-step problems independently.

A Year 9 student who used to avoid tough algebraic fractions surprised her tutor by choosing to tackle an extra challenge and correctly simplified expressions without prompting.

Meanwhile, in primary sessions, one Year 4 boy—who'd relied on counting fingers for every sum—switched to using 'rainbow' number bonds for larger additions and finished his worksheet without finger-counting at all.

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 Avalon Community Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Maria Regina Catholic Primary School.
