The most important thing a chemistry tutor can do for their student is to understand how a student learns and behaves, then processes information and implement teaching strategies accordingly to these behaviours. Creating a safe and positive environment for learning is imperative to a student's ability to properly process information as motivation…

Chemistry Tutor Jamisontown, NSW
I believe the most important thing a chemistry tutor can do is to strive for excellence in their pupil. This is only achieved through hard work and understanding, and I as a tutor would push my pupils to their best without over exhausting them or diminishing their desire to learn. I'm understanding, intellectual, patient, and most importantly I…

It's important for a chemistry tutor to guide the student through some problems, not just teach the concepts. Even if you understand the concepts, it can sometimes be harder to approach the problems than the concepts themselves. I often use real-life examples to help students relate concepts to their everyday lives. I also share some small tricks…

The most important thing a chemistry tutor can do for a student is to help them understand what they themselves cannot. I believe it is a tutors job to also provide resources but the most important thing is to actually teach them what they cannot understand and once the tutor has done that then they can provide the adequate worksheets and past…

I think that the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is ensure that the information and skills being taught are useful to the student. To be able to identify the areas of which a student is having a hard time and adapt their way of teaching. Understanding that the students learning is the number one priority when teaching and that…

Teach them how to study. I feel that too many students think the only way to study is to read the text book or talk to the teacher. Although these are valid ways I feel that most students don't realise there are other ways to study. I personal prefer to watch videos explaining the subject, draw pictures and diagrams, and then make flash cards.…

The most important thing for a tutor to do is to make sure the student can feel confident, making the subject enjoyable to learn, rather than stressful and disheartening. I try to understand what part they are struggling with, so I can help them understand, rather than learn rote answers. So this means I'm patient, and a good…

Most importantly a tutor should understand the goals and needs of each student individually - what they find difficult and why they struggle with certain concepts. Subsequently, tutors should teach students the concepts and ensure they understand how to solve problems, this provides lifelong problem solving skills rather than memorised methods to…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to personalise the learning to suit the student's strengths, to work on their weaknesses but highlight strong points to instil confidence. A tutor must treat the student as an individual and listen carefully rather than just applying the same format for each student. Through a combination…

Tutor is going really great. My son improved a lot in division just after the 2nd week. And Lidya, she's fantastic. I would highly recommend it to any of my friends who needs a tutor for their child.

Inside LapstoneTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Alexia worked on multiplying and dividing algebraic expressions as well as simplifying these equations using worksheets in preparation for an upcoming test.

For Year 9, Ethan practised classifying like terms and interpreting frequency tables alongside constructing dot plots and histograms to strengthen his statistics skills.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Mia focused on quadratic equations—both simplifying them and solving related problems—while also tackling simultaneous equations during her session.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 algebra, one student did not bring the previous two test papers to tutoring—this slowed feedback on their exam strategies and meant "I gave her already" extra copies instead of focusing on new material.

For a senior student working on proofs, the tutor noted over-reliance on written notes rather than attempting problems unaided, which made efficient recall difficult under timed conditions.

Meanwhile, in a Year 8 session on fractions, homework was set but completion is still unconfirmed for next week; practice outside lessons is essential for consolidating these skills before moving onto mixed-number operations.

Recent Achievements

A Lapstone tutor recently noticed a big change in a Year 11 student who, after previously hesitating with expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions, now tackles bracket expansions on his own and checks his work for accuracy.

In Year 9, another student who used to overthink percentage problems has started working through multi-step calculations without pausing to double-check every answer—she's trusting her process more each week.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student showed new independence by recalling and applying last session's lesson on fractions without any hints, then finished the set of fraction word problems entirely solo.

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