Tutor Gosford, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them figure out how to learn in many different ways, thus setting them up for a lifetime of learning. It is also important for a tutor to encourage their student to improve and to celebrate these improvements. My main strength as a tutor is patience with struggling or distracted…

Inside Ettalong BeachTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Olivia practised multiplying fractions by whole numbers and converting between improper fractions, mixed numbers, and decimals.

For Year 8, Ethan focused on rearranging formulae to change the subject and substituting values into equations during homework review.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Ava tackled questions involving area by rearranging formulas to find missing dimensions and calculating areas of composite shapes using diagrams for clarification.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student often left their calculator at home during algebra and Pythagoras revision, which slowed down practice with Pi and decimals; as one tutor put it, "I had to calculate a few questions for him as he didn't have a calculator handy."

In Year 11, another student arrived late and was frequently distracted—phone notifications interrupted focus, leading to missed instructions in trigonometry tasks.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student sometimes avoided showing full working when rearranging equations or solving worded problems, making it harder to spot sign errors or give targeted feedback. This meant confusion lingered into the next session.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Ettalong Beach noticed a big change in a Year 9 student who used to hesitate when stuck—this week, he openly asked for help on his homework and even requested extra questions to challenge himself.

A Year 11 student, after struggling with Pythagoras' Theorem last lesson, was able to solve problems independently by the end of the session and explained each step without prompting.

In primary years, one student who previously mixed up odd and even numbers now quickly identifies them and compares fractions accurately during practice games.

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