Tutor Jilliby, NSW
A tutor must be able to reinforce the foundational theories and concepts taught in school and from there guide their student through the ways in which this information can connect to a wide range of questions. Exposure to a myriad of problems improves a student's ability to recognise how their own knowledge connects to a solution and thus their…

Tutor Jilliby, NSW
A tutors responsibility isn't to provide answers, but to guide students to find their way of learning and to provide alternative approaches when tackling problem scenarios or questions. To be a successful tutor is to develop students mindsets and enable them to eventually trust in their instinct and decide for themselves the best way to go about a…

He is a very good teacher. He has definitely helped Arnav a lot with Algebra as Arnav was having trouble with that topic. He explains really well and is very understanding.

Inside DooralongTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Amy focused on manipulating equations with multiple variables and reviewed similar triangles using visual problem sets.

In Year 9, Jake practised simplifying indices and algebraic expansions, alongside solving equations involving surds and the substitution method.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Ruby worked on memorising her times tables—especially the 12s and 9s—and used rote techniques to strengthen her multiplication recall.

Recent Challenges

He is often found confusing indices and multiplication. This led to mistakes in algebraic simplification tasks.

In Year 7, one learner's working for inequalities was incomplete due to running out of time—written steps trailed off, leaving errors uncorrected.

For a Year 4 student practicing long addition, the layout of written sums was inconsistent; numbers didn't always align, causing carry-over errors to go unnoticed during calculation.

After setbacks with fraction problems in Year 5 maths, confidence visibly dipped and attempts at practice slowed.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Dooralong recently saw a Year 10 student finally master simultaneous equations using the substitution method, after weeks of confusion—he now breaks down problems without pausing to ask for each step.

Another high schooler who used to rush through algebra and get frustrated with mistakes is now taking more time to lay out neat, logical working when factorising, leading to cleaner solutions.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 student who previously relied on her fingers for simple addition surprised her tutor by confidently adding two numbers between 5 and 10 in her head, then explaining how she worked it out aloud.

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 Tuggerah Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Jilliby Public School.
