Biology Tutor Berowra, NSW
Push the student to be the best they can be, igniting a passion for the subject which causes them to put the work in both in class and in their own studies. I am passionate about the subjects I want to teach, allowing me to potentially share that passion with students. I am patient as i understand the struggle of topics, especially year 12…

To help the student love learning and feel like they genuinely want to continue their education because they want to and not because they feel forced by any social pressures. Also to help them figure out what kind of field they would like to pursue as a career they will enjoy. I believe one of my greatest strengths is breaking down and…

A tutor is there both to teach content and to improve a student's study habits. Seeking advice from teachers, peers, and my past tutor, I have developed helpful study skills and I recognise inefficient habits. I have gained an appreciation for tuning study practices to the individual for optimal results. Learning to work with my ADHD has…

I think the most important things a biology tutor can do for a student are being an attentive and listening mentor, ready to help with any issues. As a tutor, I think being able to shape and mould your lessons around the needs of the student is also a very important skill, and in doing so they can help the student achieve their goals. I think some…

Giving a child the confidence and skills in understanding and working with the child, not only in the subject being tutored, but building the necessary skills to be able to absorb information, process and learn what is being taught.

I believe that the most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is to help them feel more confident in entering exams and answering questions. One major obstacle students face is not being sure whether they are 'smart enough' for an exam, and I aspire to improve my student's confidence and help them understand how to answer questions…

I think the most important thing a biology tutor can do is make a student feel empowered by realising that they are capable of achieving their goals in the classroom. I believe that this realisation comes about when they understand that at a young age especially, intelligence is not fixed but able to grow when they challenge themselves. I think…

I think a biology tutor needs the ability to see things from another person's perspective as many tend to forget that the student may not have all the background knowledge that may seem like common sense to most, leading to a lot of confusion and frustration on both ends. I think a tutor also needs to be ready to get creative as students,…

Listen, encourage, and support. These are the principles I bring to every tutoring session. I've found that students who are struggling academically often face deeper challenges with confidence. Rebuilding that confidence is, in my view, one of the most underrated yet impactful aspects of tutoring. When students begin to believe in themselves…

It's important for a biology tutor to help a student get the correct answer, but more importantly it is critical that the student understands the concept behind which the answer was based. It is important for a tutor to be able to communicate with the individual in the way which is best suited for the student so that they can efficiently grasp the…

One of the most important things is to care. A tutor should genuinely care about the student's development and do their very best to help the student in every possible way. It is also important for the tutor to teach their students to be independent. I can approach shy students and not be an intimidating figure. I am also patient and do not rush…

A tutor should be a supportive platform that can allow for the student to grow from and learn to work independantly and learn new skills and techniques. They should be friendly and understanding too.

Being a source of advice and support in a student's scholarly journey. I am approachable and non-judgemental so students can ask me for help on school topics that they may not want to ask their teachers or parents due to anxiety. I use learning styles that complement the student I am teaching, as opposed to a "one size fits all"…

Inside BerowraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ella focused on multiplying and dividing fractions, as well as practising long division with remainders.

For Year 9, Sam worked through probability concepts using dot plots and frequency tables to analyse data distributions.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mia explored financial mathematics by calculating simple and compound interest, alongside tackling area and perimeter problems relevant to real-world scenarios.

Recent Challenges

Not showing working caused a Year 10 student to lose marks in recent tests—"he had full pages with no working," which made it difficult to spot and correct errors, especially in surds and algebra.

In Year 11, forgetting formulas for compound interest and depreciation meant extra time was spent searching rather than solving problems.

A Year 7 student regularly misread multi-step word problems; one tutor noted: "He stopped after finding how many went on the excursion, but missed the question about those who did NOT go."

For a primary student, messy number placement in long division made following calculations—and self-correction—much harder.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Berowra noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who, after struggling to apply the compound interest formula in past sessions, was able to use it accurately without prompting for both monthly and quarterly scenarios.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student who used to mix up like terms showed clear improvement by independently grouping and simplifying expressions correctly during algebra work.

At primary level, one student who previously hesitated with time zone questions is now confidently calculating time differences between countries using tables, even deciding whether to add or subtract based on location.

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 Berowra Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Pacific Berowra Christian School.
