Science Tutor Dynnyrne, TAS
As a university student with an ADHD diagnosis, I have learnt that it's important to learn in a way that is productive to myself, which may not benefit others in the same way. These methods involve breaking down and simplifying tasks to avoid over providing. Asking for consistent feedback to make sure I am on track and making sense of the content…

Science Tutor Bonnet Hill, TAS
To be patient, supportive, foster a relationship with the student where they are not afraid or embarrassed to admit when they don't understand something, to ensure they say so as soon as possible, so that the tutor can fix their errors when they begin and correct their path to success. I am very patient, i like to explain things in very simple…

Inside NeikaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Scarlett focused on identifying Greek and Latin roots in vocabulary and practiced using new words in sentences, followed by work on prefixes and suffixes.

In Year 11 Chemistry, Aimee reviewed stoichiometry skills including mole-mass conversions and then moved on to revising key Organic Chemistry concepts ahead of her SAC, consolidating knowledge through targeted practice questions.

Charli, a Year 12 Biology student, tackled revision of the adaptive immune system using short answer exam-style questions and recapped earlier topics such as CRISPR-Cas9 gene technology for her upcoming assessments.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Chemistry, Aimee often felt overwhelmed by complex questions and tended to overcomplicate them, sometimes missing key details or failing to break problems into manageable steps.

"She needs to slow down and summarise the essential features," a tutor observed after a challenging stoichiometry task.

Meanwhile, Scarlett (Year 6 English) hesitated to start creative writing assignments due to self-doubt; she stalled on launching ideas, even when her understanding was strong.

In Year 8 English, Cameron's written drafts showed frequent punctuation and grammatical errors—he needed repeated reminders to edit thoroughly before moving on.

Recent Achievements

In Year 11 Chemistry, Aimee took initiative by attempting combustion-type stoichiometry questions before the session—even though her class hadn't yet covered the topic. She's also started openly voicing areas of confusion instead of working in silence, which means she now asks targeted questions and adapts her approach more independently.

Meanwhile, Charli has begun highlighting her weaker areas at the start of sessions so they can be addressed directly; she now draws diagrams from memory without prompting.

On a different note, Cameron wrote a creative short story and enthusiastically accepted feedback to improve grammar and punctuation.

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 State Library of Tasmania—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kingston High School.
