Biology Tutor Gregory Hills, NSW
Recognise HOW a student actually learns. One of the hardest things a student has to learn is what method of studying actually suits them and once you find that the rest seems to fall in place. Devoting time and resources to your students to improve in their core weaknesses and not being afraid to reteach the most basic skills should also be common…

I think the most important things a tutor can do are make students feel supported, break concepts down clearly, and help them build real confidence. My experience at McDonalds and Chemist Warehouse taught me patience and problem-solving, while being a Peer Support Leader showed me how powerful encouragement can be. A tutor should help students…

Not regurgitate the same information given on google or at schools regarding their difficult topics, but instead to approach the student and the lesson with the ambition to simplify complexities in your own intuitive way. This is with respect to the student's preferential medium for learning, which you as a tutor need to manipulate effectively to…

Instead of teaching in a standard linear fashion, I prefer to let the pupil choose what they would like to practice and I will explain the concept while showing how the idea can be applied and adjusted. I also believe worded problems are a strong point that should be focused on as they test the knowledge of the student and how the student can…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is build trust and confidence. A student should feel comfortable asking questions without fear of being judged. Beyond improving grades, a tutor should help students develop study habits, problem-solving skills, and self-belief so they can succeed on their own too. My main strengths are patience…

Provide support, of course through teaching content, but most importantly by the way we deliver the information and provide feedback. I feel personally demotivated to study and understand a certain subject when my teacher/tutor would word their explanations in a demeaning way such as "You should have known this" etc. Instead saying "Yep you've got…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to communicate effectively and enjoyment. Without clear communication, it is unlikely the student will grasp the concepts properly and would only lead to a lack of confidence in their ability.

I believe tutors have the biggest impact on how a student approaches a subject. Speaking from personal experience, I don't think I would've liked studying the subjects I had in year 10, 11 and 12 if I hadn't had good teachers who knew how to make the subjects interesting to learn. A tutor is capable of making studying feel less burdensome and I…

I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is to build a student's confidence, not just their grades.

A tutor should guide the student to think independently, celebrate small wins, and create a space where asking questions feels…

Local Reviews

James is always punctual, well mannered and respectful. He demonstrates a passion towards maths which he uses to encourage my daughters. James explains, breaks down and demonstrates content in a relatable way so my children can understand new concepts. He uses feedback to guide their learning and sets them goals to achieve in his follow up sessions. James is an excellent tutor.

Inside Gledswood HillsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Amelia worked on rounding numbers to different place values and adding and subtracting integers using number lines.

For Year 8, Grace focused on applying the laws of indices with practice exercises and revisiting algebraic equations involving brackets and expansion, also receiving guidance on managing homework stress.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Nishta revised financial maths topics such as calculating commission, bonuses, and tax bracket tables while reviewing errors from a recent exam for better accuracy.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student was hesitant to write out her algebraic fractions and rounding problems, preferring mental calculation; as a tutor observed, "Revision has refreshed her concepts," but skipping pen-to-paper working left gaps in understanding.

In Year 10, a student preparing for topic tests delayed practice sums and needed reminders not to procrastinate homework—she missed completing fast practice exercises before the next lesson.

Meanwhile, a senior student struggled to recall geometry formulas during straight-line problems and relied on "by hearting" rather than practicing applications, which meant confusion persisted when new scenarios appeared on assessments.

Recent Achievements

One Gledswood Hills tutoring session saw a Year 10 student, Grace, go from losing marks for careless errors to earning first place in her class with 91%—her tutor noticed she's now checking her work more thoroughly after previous slips cost her points.

In Year 8, Nishtha was initially hesitant to write down answers but has started completing all homework on time and now independently converts word problems into algebraic expressions.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once avoided interaction by hiding under the bed is slowly joining sessions and responding to questions with gentle encouragement.

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 Narellan Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Gledswood Hills Public School.
