Chriselle
Biology Tutor Bomaderry, NSW
Being patient, encouraging and compassionate to students, particularly those who struggle to grasp content, have learning difficulties and those that suffer from anxiety. Also, being an enthusiastic tutor is important to engage students in their learning and to make mundane topics seem more interesting. I am knowledgeable in my subject areas and…

Inside BolongTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
Year 8 student Adeel worked on simple interest problems in financial maths and practiced marking homework on graphing quadratic functions.
Year 10 student Laaibah focused on networks, including spanning trees and minimum spanning trees, as well as questions involving paths, trails, and circuits.
Meanwhile, Year 12 student Zoe reviewed critical path analysis by drawing network diagrams from activity tables and calculating earliest start times and latest finish times for project tasks.
Recent Challenges
A Year 8 student struggled with formatting solutions in algebra—working wasn't clearly set out line by line, making errors harder to spot ("should aim to keep it line by line, which makes it easier to check for errors").
In Year 10, another student showed a pattern of relying on memorised rules for trigonometry rather than understanding the concepts behind formulas.
A senior student preparing for HSC often skipped showing full working in financial maths problems; missing steps made review difficult when checking rounding or justification. The result: time lost retracing steps and uncertainty during revision.
Recent Achievements
A tutor in Bolong recently noticed Andrea, a Year 12 student, make a real shift: after struggling with trigonometric graphs, she was able to sketch them independently and explain how changing the period affects their shape—something that previously confused her.
In Year 11, Laaibah went from hesitating on finance questions to confidently calculating monthly interest rates and reading credit card statements without prompting.
For a younger win, one Year 6 student who used to skip working out is now showing every step for ratio problems and checking answers twice before moving on.
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 Nowra (Central) Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Terara Public School.
