By first giving the student the necessary skills to complete a range of questions this equips them with the tools to complete any question. I then allow the student to make the mistake first and learn from it by helping them change what they did. This is then followed up with an example response to a question then the student is given the chance…

Biology Tutor Forresters Beach, NSW
I believe the most important things a biology tutor can do for a student are to build their confidence, adapt to their learning style, and create a safe space for questions and mistakes. It's not just about helping them understand the content. It’s about helping them believe they can understand it. A good tutor should be patient, encouraging,…

I believe one of the most important things a biology tutor can do for a student is be encouraging and understanding. As a student it can be hard and that is the reason you are getting tutoring. So to have someone encourage you can be a great reason to keep learning. I think my strengths as a tutor would be my patience and communication skills, as…

Biology Tutor Ourimbah, NSW
Building a proper connection with the student in order to get them to trust and listen to you is inarguably the most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student. Once that relationship is built, the student and tutor can not only pass but excel in their given subject thanks to that built trust. It can really fast-track a struggling…

I believe the most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is learning to adapt. Each students brain is wired completely different, and in school, there’s not always an opportunity to work one on one. So it’s crucial for a tutor to observe their students strengths and weaknesses, and use that to progress their learning. I am super…

Inside Tumbi UmbiTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Alex practised surface area calculations and reviewed homework on perimeter using visual models.

For Year 10, Mia worked through probability questions and began exploring chemical equilibrium concepts with practice problems.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Lucas tackled Physics topics on electromagnetic induction, including the motor effect and Lenz's Law, breaking down AC generator functions with annotated diagrams.

Recent Challenges

In Year 5 maths, a student left fraction homework incomplete and was hesitant to attempt worded perimeter problems from the textbook.

One comment read, "he may need to improve checking his work as he mentioned he was prone to silly mistakes."

In senior physics, another student's notes were often messy and lacked structure, making revision difficult—especially when answer formatting was inconsistent in waves topics.

During timed tasks in Years 9–10 maths, anxiety led one student to lose focus and skip necessary proof-reading. In these moments, clarity and confidence slipped away just when they were needed most.

Recent Achievements

One Tumbi Umbi tutor noticed a Year 4 student who used to freeze on her 11 times tables above 10Ă—11 but, after learning the underlying pattern, confidently completed all questions when tested.

In high school science, Mohit has shifted from staying quiet during tricky physics concepts to actively asking questions whenever unsure—something he never did before.

Another secondary student recently beat her personal best in multiplication, scoring 20 out of 21 and rounding decimals independently, which was a big step up from last term's hesitations with multi-step problems.

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 Bateau Bay Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Killarney Vale Public School.
