Ancient History Tutor Dolans Bay, NSW
I believe the three most important things I could do for a student is academic support, addressing study habits and confronting weaknesses. I believe focusing on these three aspects will do the upmost for the student in the short and long term. I’ve grown up and worked with people from across the socio-economic spectrum, I think I have a…

Inside BurraneerTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 Thomas reviewed addition, subtraction, telling time, basic shapes, and skip counting to assess his current maths level.

For Year 9 Maddie, recent sessions explored angle relationships such as co-interior, alternate, corresponding, supplementary, and complementary angles using visual examples.

Meanwhile, Year 10 James focused on solving algebraic equations where x is negative and practiced converting units for weight measurement.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 maths, a student often jumped straight to answers without showing working—he skipped showing steps in algebra, which hid sign errors. This meant extra time was spent hunting for mistakes instead of progressing.

For a Year 12 humanities subject, one student collected sources after completing work rather than during research; as a result, it was harder to recall references when writing essays.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student's untidy handwriting made numbers hard to read, occasionally causing confusion between 6 and 8 on division problems. In the moment, misreading their own work led to calculation slips and frustration.

Recent Achievements

During a Burraneer tutoring session, a high school student began to tackle complex equations independently after initially relying on step-by-step guidance; she's now explaining why each part works before moving forward.

Another tutor noticed a Year 11 student who once hesitated with probability now choosing to attempt harder revision problems unprompted and applying correct terminology throughout.

In humanities, Maiee, who previously struggled to connect sources with essay questions, is now matching evidence directly to rubric points and exploring how different perspectives could shape her argument.

Last week, she drafted an outline for an essay using her own source selections.

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 Cronulla Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Aloysius College Cronulla.
