Physics Tutor Oak Flats, NSW
I always find people learn best when they're comfortable and truly believe they can master the concept. Therefore, I would say the most important thing for a tutor is to build a mutual respect with their student. From there encouragement, communication, and teaching is much easier. Although I have a good knowledge off mathematics and the sciences,…

Things are going really well with Ella and our daughter. We're very happy with the quality of tutoring and her approach.

Inside DunmoreTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Grace worked on area of composite shapes and basic trigonometry, using diagrams to help break down complex problems.

In Year 10, Daniel focused on algebra basics and completed a pre-test to review his understanding ahead of new classwork.

For Year 11, Emily revised compound interest calculations as part of financial maths and practised applying formulas to real-world scenarios.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student often wrote answers without structuring working out, which made it difficult to spot calculation errors—"setting out her working out with clear headings and steps" was a consistent need.

In Year 11 trigonometry, not labeling diagrams or reading questions fully led to confusion about which rule to use, as one note put it: "just needs to read worded questions carefully, especially trig (when drawing a triangle from words)."

A Year 8 algebra session saw mistakes with negatives when each step wasn't shown; extra time went into correcting these rather than building confidence.

Recent Achievements

In Dunmore, a Year 11 student who had previously struggled with equations involving fractions is now working through these independently, showing clear improvement in both speed and accuracy.

Another high schooler recently completed a challenging trigonometry question from a past HSC paper on her own. Just weeks ago, she needed step-by-step guidance for similar problems.

In a Year 8 session, a student who used to rush and skip steps is now carefully setting out their working, resulting in fewer errors and greater confidence tackling two-step equations without prompting.

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 Shellharbour Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Shellharbour Anglican College.
