Even though it sounds basic, I truly think that patience is the key. When you are respectful of the differences in how people learn it can allow the student to feel more comfortable and willing to engage. Taking time to work through things and giving positive and constructive feedback is crucial. I believe that I am able to find other methods and…

The most important thing a tutor can do is to make their student feel confident with any question or situation they are presented with in their subject. With confidence, students are able to think clearer in exam environments, respond more to class discussions in school and feel less stressed about their learning journey. Ultimately, my goal is to…

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.
