I think it is important for a biology tutor to help a student grow their confidence and independence through improving their problem-solving skills and critical thinking. These skills are important for a student when faced with difficult assignments in order to determine what is being asked of them and to work through the problem in a logical…

I think a biology tutor should provide a fun, engaging and different approach to studying. A tutor should ask questions in a way a teacher hasn't got the time to do. They should always ask what the student wants and implement strategies as to how to attain these goals. But, perhaps at the forefront of responsibility, a tutor should always make…

The most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is to make themselves welcoming. A good and effective tutor is open to all ideas and willing to completely work with the student. The most effective tutors will offer a variety of perspectives and welcome all criticism and differing opinions. During school, I struggled with breaking…

Tutors need to be able help their students learn how to problem solve. Too often tutors prioritise getting the correct answer or achieving a high mark. Although that is one of the main reasons students have tutors, they need to support students so they can take on new questions rather than approach them with a memorised trick without understanding…

Inside BellambiTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student 52992 reviewed algebra, trigonometry, and inequalities as part of half-yearly test preparation, also covering significant figures and financial maths calculations.

For Year 10, student 55937 worked on coordinate geometry with a focus on finding perimeters of sectors, plus practiced forming and graphing linear equations.

Meanwhile, in Year 4, student 43575 explored picture graphs (interpreting simple data displays) and began to discuss foundational algebra concepts through informal activities.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student repeatedly avoided showing working in maths tasks, insisting that "the answer is enough," which meant calculation errors went unnoticed during revision for algebra inequalities.

In a senior assignment on the Otzi Iceman (History), the same student required step-by-step guidance to begin research and drafting, as one tutor observed, "I had to 'hold his hand' through the writing portion."

For a Year 5 learner, difficulty recalling times tables out of order slowed progress with fraction questions—writing them sequentially was fine, but random recall proved challenging and led to hesitation when new problems appeared.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Bellambi recently noticed Max tackling his Otzi history assignment with far more persistence than before—he used to give up quickly but now powers through challenging research and essay planning without needing reminders.

Another older student showed real progress in maths, mastering Pythagoras' theorem and like terms after struggling to connect the concepts earlier this term; he even asked for tougher questions on angles.

Meanwhile, Arvon (primary) has shifted from hesitating over addition to solving double-digit sums in his head, completing a set of ten mental calculations correctly during one 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 Corrimal District Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Holy Spirit College.
