Science Tutor Beverly Hills, NSW
Ultimately, a tutor must teach his/her student to be able to rely on themselves and think autonomously when problem solving i.e. not to be afraid of trial and error. I would say my strengths are attributes such as patience with the student (repetition when necessary), determination in getting the message across, and a friendly attitude towards all…

Science Tutor Warwick Farm, NSW
I believe the most important thing is to help and guide students through the HSC period, and their choices after the HSC. My strength would be that I can understand what the students feel because I have been enroled into many different tutoring centers. My weakness is that I am a quiet person and I don't talk a lot unless it is with close friends,…

A tutor can teach the student how to learn a difficult subject, how to clear their thoughts when they're not able to understand something and think from a different angle. Communication, building relationship with students, making studying fun by conducting short surprise…

Science Tutor Beverly Hills, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is teach them how to learn effectively, independantly, efficiently and enjoyably, regardless of the subject matter. I am diligent and conscientious, reflective of my habits as a proficient student, strengths that I aim to pass onto my students to set them up for…

Science Tutor Lakemba, NSW
I believe that encouraging the creation of ideas and allowing students to assemble their own ideas and thoughts is a good way to promote creativity. I challenge my students to be free-thinkers and am always open to suggestions from them. Uniqueness and originality are rewarded. Hence, these attributes will allow them to be confident and well…

Science Tutor Macquarie Fields, NSW
Is to provide support, as I student I know it gets hard to understand what teachers are trying to say. A tutor is meant to simplify what is being taught in class and helping out the student to be prepared for their future adventures in an academic level. I am a talkative and hardworking person. I like getting things write and I feel like by doing…

Science Tutor Connells Point, NSW
Most tutors forget that students never enjoy tutoring, so it is important to set interesting challenges to keep students motivated and also polishing their skills using unorthodox methods. Too much of the time tutors just read off the textbook and don't provide alternative methods or keep the students' focus on their work. I believe the students…

Science Tutor Hurstville Grove, NSW
Truly listening to a student's needs and being flexible enough to alter plans for a lesson. Also, it is important to be patient and acknowledge that not everyone grasps concepts at the same rate, and being willing to repeat concepts again for the student to understand. I am honest about the progression of a student and tell them about what they…

Patricia is amazing! My niece really enjoyed her time with Patricia. She aced her exams and gained useful tips from her. It was a fun and worthwhile experience. Definitely recommended.

Inside Sandy PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Athena worked on multiplication facts and applied them to word problems, as well as reading and converting time between digital and analogue formats.

In Year 7, Zara focused on decimal addition and subtraction alongside revising factors and multiples using number puzzles.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Tom practiced operations with fractions—including converting improper to mixed numbers—and explored order of operations through targeted exercises.

Recent Challenges

A Year 6 student working on perimeter often missed sides without numbers, as a tutor observed: "she relied heavily on the calculator, even though her manual column addition is strong."

In Year 9 surface area lessons, another struggled to double-check if each face was counted, sometimes skipping this when using a calculator for speed.

For a Year 4 multiplication task, showing carrying and borrowing steps in written work was inconsistent—answers were right but not always reproducible.

In several senior grades (Years 10–11), forgetting to write units or cube/square symbols led to confusion reviewing volume and area solutions later.

Recent Achievements

One Sandy Point tutor saw a big change in a Year 9 student who'd struggled to solve for x—she's now confidently merging like terms and working through equations with much less hesitation.

A Year 7 student who used to avoid tricky word problems is now identifying the right strategies just from reading the question, especially picking up on clue words like "difference" or "how much."

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who previously rushed through addition is finally using the carrying process correctly for harder sums, slowing down to double-check her work before moving on.

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