Engineering Studies Tutor Elermore Vale, NSW
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is understand the student and their mindset towards school and schoolwork. If you understand a student, you can adapt your tutoring to give them the most support for them to achieve what they desire. I am encouraging and supportive. I know the content (just have dig through my brain for it). Most…

Inside KahibahTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Chloe focused on algebra skills by working through equations she found challenging in homework, then applied the Pythagorean theorem to solve practical geometry problems.

Year 11 student Olivia tackled probability concepts, using Venn diagrams and two-way tables to interpret worded questions and calculate relative frequencies.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Jack concentrated on financial mathematics—solving compound interest and depreciation problems by interpreting multi-step scenarios and rearranging relevant formulas for exam preparation.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, one student repeatedly left sections of assigned maths homework incomplete—"not completed part of the homework which was given on year 11 content"—resulting in gaps when attempting non-right angle trigonometry questions.

For a Year 12 student, notes showed that limited independent revision ("only about an hour weekly") and undated study notes meant key financial maths concepts and bivariate data interpretation were still weak as exams approached.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 learner's algebra work was hard to follow due to missing steps; as observed, "really need to focus on writing down steps & showing working." This led to confusion and slower progress during lessons.

Recent Achievements

A Kahibah tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to skip steps is now writing out every stage of complex worded maths questions, which has made interpreting problems much smoother for him.

In Year 10, Jackson—who previously needed regular help with exam-style questions—is now tackling higher-level financial maths and normal distribution tasks almost entirely independently after focusing on memory techniques and self-review.

Meanwhile, a younger student in Year 3 went from struggling with terminology at the start of sessions to confidently naming all main 3D shapes and even scoring full marks when working with more challenging numbers during practice.

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 Charlestown Library, walyamayi—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kahibah Public School.
