Biology Tutor Darwin, NT
I feel the most important thing that a tutor can do is to listen to the students as they explain what they don't understand and to help fully explain the solution of the problem to the student and to verify that the students understands the new concepts. I am patient with the students and I can work through many examples with the student until he…

Inside East ArmTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Elise worked on multiplying fractions and converting mixed numbers, as well as tackling reading comprehension questions to improve written responses.

In Year 9, Amelie reviewed trigonometric functions and the unit circle, focusing on determining exact values using radians.

Another Year 9 student completed algebra practice with a focus on identifying variables and writing equations, followed by targeted reading comprehension exercises.

Recent Challenges

Incomplete homework and frequent excuses meant lesson time was lost catching up on missed tasks rather than moving forward—"we too often, lose a lot of time during the lesson finishing work that should have already been completed."

In Year 8 mathematics, haphazard working out in worksheets made it difficult to review errors or build understanding; as noted, "both of us struggled to understand it."

A senior student's tendency to reach for the calculator early led to skipped written steps and overlooked mistakes in complex algebra. This pattern left them searching for where things went wrong during assessments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in East Arm noticed Amelie now confidently identifies her own errors during tests and corrects them independently—she used to hesitate and need prompting.

Another win from a recent session: Aymen, also in high school, broke down complex composite shapes into simpler parts for area calculations with much less guidance than before and scored 46/55 on his latest test after previously struggling with these problems.

In primary years, Elise has started outlining every step when working through multi-step maths questions rather than skipping straight to answers; last session she finished a long division problem set without missing any steps.

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 Palmerston Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Haileybury Rendall School.
