1. Remaining patient with the student no matter what so as to encourage them to keep working on a problem rather than feel discouraged by a minor setback. This should be achieved by positive talk and reinforcing the importance of clarifying concepts to the student. 2. Praising new achievements of the student to ensure that they feel encouraged to…

According to me, the most difficult part of life is being a student. Because there is a strict rule that students must pass all the subjects even when they are already mastered their favorite subject of study. But they lose their confidence and focus in their mastered subjects and they get lower grades. But the most important thing is that there…

Personally, an english tutor is someone outside of school who the student can rely on for their studies. Students show their vulnerability here so that tutor can build them to be strong at school. So a tutor can help the student be strong on their subjects and understand the subject with life. Understanding the student on what they need first and…

The best thing an english tutor can do for a student is listen to their needs, because it is evident in a classroom when a teacher doesn't know how to teach by the way they address the problem. Different people need the same issue explained in various ways, and so it is extremely important to have a great depth of understanding in order to…

I think that it's important for tutors to be patient and understanding. Just because a child doesn't get good test scores, it doesn't mean that they're incompetent. From my experience, kids can actually excell in subjects once they have the material explained to them in a way that they can understand. Ever since I was young, I have always excelled…

Inside Kembla HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Isla focused on simplifying fractions, applying the order of operations, and converting numbers to percentages.

Year 12 student Natalia reviewed algebra concepts by solving chapter exercises and worked through area-related questions, checking her understanding along the way.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Tom completed worksheets covering key topics in algebra and survey data interpretation, practising how to break down expressions and apply them to real-world examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student faced difficulty preparing for an upcoming exam because key information about the task was missing, leading to uncertainty and last-minute revision.

In a Year 8 maths session, over-reliance on reviewing solved examples meant independent practice was limited; as noted, "he needs to review the formulas and practice again" instead of just looking at worked solutions.

For a Year 3 child learning subtraction, forgetting to check whether the question required addition or subtraction led to repeated errors—"sometimes does not look to check if the sum is addition or subtraction." This created confusion during timed quizzes.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Kembla Heights recently noticed some great steps forward across different ages. One Year 11 student who previously froze when tackling English essays has started breaking tasks into smaller, manageable parts and now drafts an introduction independently before asking for feedback.

In maths, a Year 9 student moved from hesitating on finance questions to working out total brokerage and dividend yield with minimal prompts, even double-checking answers unasked—a big shift from relying on step-by-step guidance.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who used to rush through subtraction now carefully checks her work, handing in homework with no errors for the first time.

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 Eagle Vale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Mount Kembla Public School.
