Elisabeth

Science Tutor East Gosford, NSW
I believe that tutors should provide all-round mentorship to students and that this is one of the most important things that can come of tutoring; helping them to feel more confident in approaching problems they have in their everyday lives and to search for the answers to the questions that they have about the world around them. I am very patient…

Help them enjoy learning. The role of a tutor should be to engage the student and make the learning process fun, encouraging them to put more effort into their learning, consequently improving their results. As well as this, it is vital that a tutor guide the student to a solution rather than simply giving them the answer, allowing them to…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is giving them confidence that they can learn. This will give them confidence to try and be creative in finding ways to understand any complex topic they need to know. One of my strengths as a tutor is that I am creative in discussing complex topics. I can discuss the same topic in different…

Give the student the foundational skills to excel on the own once outside of tutoring. A good tutor will be able to get their student to a level where they feel competent to work by themselves, and know both how to solve a problem, and why we approach the problem the way we do. My strengths as a tutor is my relatability, as math didn’t come easy…

Implement creativity and a willingness to try is the most important skill a tutor can pass on to their students. Once a student builds a willingness to try and a need to challenge themselves, they will be more likely to build good habits and routines around creating these pathways for themselves. I always ask myself 'how do students learn' and…

While it is important that students are achieving the marks they want, this is only half of the game.

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is learning to adapt. Each students brain is wired completely different, and in school, there’s not always an opportunity to work one on one. So it’s crucial for a tutor to observe their students strengths and weaknesses, and use that to progress their learning. I am super patient…

I think that whilst having adaptive teaching methods is important, ensuring the student constantly feels supported and motivated by the tutor is vital. For me, in school no matter how much I was struggling (especially in maths) I found that having a great, understanding teacher, allowed me to not be afraid of asking ‘stupid’ questions. So for…

Ultimately, there are two things. Teaching a student to be curious, and teaching a student how to learn. Education systems are designed to filter all kids through a rigid, structured system, which, although brilliant for most, loses the spirit of why we learn. Because we are curious! We like to see how things work, to investigate our world and…

I believe a truly effective tutor can accurately pinpoint the source of a student's struggle with a particular topic, and propose the correct solution. For example, trouble with foundational concepts often stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of the basics, therefore it is important to readdress the theory portion of the topic and provide…

Inside East GosfordTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Yillen focused on applying the Pythagoras Theorem to right-angled and isosceles triangles using graphs, then moved into surface area and volume calculations for various shapes.

For Year 9, Chloe practiced trigonometry with SOHCAHTOA to solve for unknown sides and angles in triangles, and revised equations involving speed, distance, and time by working through targeted practice questions.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Arielle worked on unit fractions—ordering them by size and simplifying—as well as constructing factor trees to identify highest common factors.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, one student's lack of organization became clear when she arrived to an exam revision session without her notes or workbook, making targeted preparation impossible and leading to distraction.

"I had to almost give him 80% of the answers this lesson to try to keep him engaged enough to try," noted a tutor for another senior student who was late, unfocused, and unprepared—often distracted by his phone or arriving after lessons had started.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 learner repeatedly avoided showing working in algebra and fractions; messy layout made it hard for her to spot errors before they snowballed.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in East Gosford noticed a real shift in one high school student who had previously struggled to ask for help; this week, he not only admitted where he was stuck with his homework but also requested extra challenges to push himself further.

Another secondary student, after initially needing reminders on Pythagoras' Theorem, left the session able to explain the core concept back clearly—an area that had caused confusion before.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who tended to lose focus became noticeably faster at adding and subtracting decimals, managing most calculations independently by the end of her lesson.

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 Erina Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Patrick's Catholic Primary School.
