Be present and engaged in each lesson and ensure they thoroughly understand each topic before moving on. I would say my main strengths are patience and communication. When it comes to breaking down questions, it helps to work through things slowly and ensure understanding at each…

Biology 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…

Biology Tutor Woy Woy, NSW
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…

Biology Tutor Narara, NSW
I believe the most important thing a biology 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…

The most important things a biology tutor can do for a student is constant support and encouragement while also providing methods to break down questions where they can become more confident. My strengths are that i understand every studet has their own individual way of learning which can be very different to others. I recognise this and i can…

Biology Tutor Ettalong Beach, NSW
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…

Building a proper connection with the student in order to get them to trust and listen to you is inarguably the most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student. Once that relationship is built, the student and tutor can not only pass but excel in their given subject thanks to that built trust. It can really fast-track a struggling…

Inside KariongTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Yillen worked on understanding Pythagoras' Theorem in right-angled triangles and practiced applying formulas to real-world measurement problems, as well as revising volume and surface area for composite shapes.

In Year 9, Chloe focused on trigonometry using SOHCAHTOA to solve for unknown side lengths and angles, and also reviewed equations involving speed, distance, and time by tackling challenging practice questions.

Meanwhile, primary student Arielle (Year 6) strengthened her skills with perimeter and area calculations, then moved on to test revision covering surface area and the volume of shapes.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student recently left his notes and workbook at school before an exam, leaving him without revision guidelines. "He didn't have any materials to reference," a tutor noted, so lesson time shifted to improvised preparation rather than targeted review.

In Year 10 English, limited written work was submitted for feedback, slowing progress in essay structure and spelling improvement—requests for more drafts were not always met.

For a senior Maths student, frequent late arrivals (up to 12 minutes) and device distractions meant most questions needed heavy prompting; the flow of independent problem-solving stalled as attention drifted elsewhere.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Kariong noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who, after struggling with Pythagoras' Theorem, left the session able to explain each step independently—just last week he needed constant reminders.

Another high schooler took real initiative for the first time by asking for extra homework to challenge himself, instead of waiting for tasks to be assigned.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who'd hesitated to speak up is now confidently breaking down word problems and explaining her reasoning out loud, finishing her three-digit multiplication worksheet on her own.

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