A tutor should be able to make subjects understandable and enjoyable for their students so they get to learn it easier and faster. They should be able to impart knowledge in many different ways in order to have the capacity to teach people who learn in different ways. I'm really patient with people, especially children. I really enjoy being able…

Science Tutor Glenmore Park, NSW
I consider confidence to be the most important thing I can give to a student as I believe every student has the capability of doing well in any subject, but belief in themselves is needed. Upon starting year 11, I really struggled at chemistry, majorly. But thankfully I had the best tutor that pushed me and gave me the drive & self-belief to…

Be empathetic... Often students are going through a lot more than just school and/or sport, and sometimes tutors do not realise this when they're loading them with a lot of information. By being empathetic and patient that tutor is able to consider that needs of the student and alter sessions accordingly to ensure the greatest bang for the buck. I…

Science Tutor Glenmore Park, NSW
All my previous students have thanked me for teaching them the foundations, filling in any gaps before continuing on with new material. This gave them confidence in the subject and helped them achieve the highest grades in their academic career. It also provided them with an optimism to life, since if by doing well in school, they could see…

Science Tutor Glenmore Park, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to be absolutely certain that his student really understand the topic which they explained and have no confusions or doubts in their mind. My most important strength as a tutor is understanding myself the specific point where a child is facing difficulty to grasp the topic and then clearing…

Local Reviews

Mary has been tutoring my daughter for about 2 months now. She is very knowledgeable and is able to explain concepts in a way she understands and is clear before moving on. It's also great that she is able to teach different subjects, and depending on what my daughter has on that week is what they go through at that lesson. Highly recommend Mary.

Inside WallaciaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Lily focused on converting fractions to percentages and solved word problems involving perimeter using worked examples.

For Year 9, Jake practiced simplifying surds and rationalising denominators before moving into introductory quadratic equations.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Sarah worked through expanding brackets, perfect square factorisation, and applied the null factor law using step-by-step algebraic methods.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student often arrived without a calculator or clear knowledge of current school topics, making it difficult to progress beyond repeated revision—"never brings his calculator and refuses to bring new topics."

In Year 10, homework was incomplete and home practice neglected; this led to forgotten steps in equations and surface area tasks.

A Year 3 learner struggled to remember the order of operations for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

During one session with a senior student, over-reliance on memorized formulas (not on the provided sheet) caused confusion when faced with unfamiliar exam problems.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Wallacia recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to avoid asking for help now actively requests clarification when stuck on quadratic factorisation, leading to fewer mistakes and more independent problem-solving.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student who previously rushed through worded volume questions is now carefully identifying key information before applying formulas—showing real progress in understanding rather than guessing.

In a primary session, one younger learner who struggled with multiplication tables is starting to recall them unaided, completing several volume problems without needing the usual times table chart.

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