Biology Tutor Woonona, NSW
I think a biology tutor should provide a fun, engaging and different approach to studying. A tutor should ask questions in a way a teacher hasn't got the time to do. They should always ask what the student wants and implement strategies as to how to attain these goals. But, perhaps at the forefront of responsibility, a tutor should always make…

Biology Tutor Wollongong, NSW
The most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is to make themselves welcoming. A good and effective tutor is open to all ideas and willing to completely work with the student. The most effective tutors will offer a variety of perspectives and welcome all criticism and differing opinions. During school, I struggled with breaking…

Biology Tutor Fairy Meadow, NSW
I believe coming prepared to lessons is the most important thing I can do for my students, so I will always have a lesson plan and teaching aids. I will also come with tools to keep track of my student's progress to have an idea of what level my student is at and tailor my lessons towards their needs and goals. I also like to give my students a…

Biology Tutor East Corrimal, NSW
I think the most important things that a biology tutor and do for a student is to convey the idea that learning should be fun, regardless of whether the process of solving a problem is easy or complex. Being able to enjoy the process of problem solving can go beyond the classroom. Making it enjoyable for the students is critical for any successful…

Biology Tutor Fernhill, NSW
Be there for the student, often at times, it's only a matter of a little support and confidence in them to see them soar. Catering for a specific teaching pattern that bests suits their learning style and capacity. Helping them learn and understand at their own pace. Coming from a very diverse background has helped me relate and connect with…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to firstly provide them with accurate content as well as to be an effective support network that can understand and relate to what the student needs for them to most efficiently learn. I believe my strengths as a tutor are communication, empathy and support as well as being well versed in…

Local Reviews

The initial session went well with my grandson and the tutor Ovin was very helpful and informative with my grandson.

Inside ThirroulTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Max worked through solving simultaneous equations and applied the quadratic formula to tackle quadratic word problems.

In Year 10, Chloe focused on logarithms and practiced sketching graphs by hand for visual understanding.

For a younger learner in Year 4, Remi covered multiplication and division basics along with calendar and time questions as part of his homework review.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student repeatedly mixed up pronumerals in algebra, assuming they matched previous questions—"attention to detail, especially to the pronumerals," noted one tutor—which led to errors that weren't spotted until late in working.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 learner lost track of earlier content after shifting to new topics, making revision for exams difficult and leading to confusion during more complex factorisation.

In Year 7 English, reluctance to complete homework became clear when a student dodged accountability at lesson's end.

For a younger primary student, not showing written working in maths hid mistakes with subtraction and delayed progress on arithmetic foundations.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Thirroul recently noticed some big changes: one Year 11 student who used to get stuck on simultaneous equations is now choosing between elimination and substitution confidently, even explaining her reasoning aloud.

In Year 8, a student who once guessed at where he went wrong now pauses to check his work, then solves similar questions correctly without prompting.

Meanwhile, a younger student who felt embarrassed about using finger counting has started doing it openly and with pride—he's flying through perimeter problems that were tricky before and finished all his area questions without any reminders.

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 Thirroul Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Michael's Catholic Primary School.
