Chemistry Tutor Booker Bay, 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…

Chemistry Tutor Pearl Beach, NSW
The most important thing a chemistry tutor can do for a student is believe in them and their abilities. By encouraging students and believing in them students will gain confidence in themselves and develop resilience. Students will then be able to do anything they put their minds to as they have a solid mental foundation to fall back on. I am a…

Local Reviews

Claudia is great. She went above and beyond in the first session spending almost 2 hours with Sasha. To quote Sasha -‘I learnt more in that one session than I have all year’! She also offered to assist Sasha via text or phone to help her with a test coming up this week.

Inside KillcareTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Zac focused on adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions—including working with mixed and improper fractions—and learned how to simplify results in calculations.

For Year 8, Yillen practiced using Pythagoras' Theorem to solve right-angled triangle problems and applied area formulas for various shapes, connecting these concepts with recent classwork.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Lily tackled algebraic expansion and factorisation as well as rearranging formulas, working through homework questions to consolidate her understanding.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8, a student left his notes and workbook at school, which meant he had no guidelines for revision—this made it harder to prepare for an unexpected exam.

"He didn't have a calculator handy," one tutor observed during a senior session, so some questions were missed or required extra help.

In upper high school, another student needed more home practice to master concepts but hadn't completed assigned work.

For a Year 4 lesson, forgetting key materials led to confusion when converting between time zones.

These moments slowed progress in class and increased reliance on tutors for reminders and support.

Recent Achievements

The tutor in Killcare observed that a high school student, after initially being shy and hesitant to answer, started speaking up during problem solving and now confidently tackles fraction questions without waiting for prompts.

Another older student has begun asking for more challenging homework on his own, a big shift from earlier sessions where he only completed what was set.

At the primary level, a younger student who previously needed encouragement with currency problems now draws her own diagrams to solve them and explains each step aloud while working through addition and subtraction tasks.

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 Pretty Beach Public School.
