For most students, biology doesn't seem that hard. The content isn't that intimidating and if you put in the time, more often than not results will follow.
Providing the right resources and support both academically and personally. Although possessing good academic knowledge is great, success comes from having good support and balance in every aspect of life. That is why I believe supporting students in a holistic manner is an important trait of a biology tutor. I am patient and understanding. I…
Communication is effective and is able to foster a relationship with them to be able to gain, engage and enhance a students understanding in an area of struggle. Having taught a variety of students with different learning styles and needs, being able to break down the complex theory of things into simple explanations for them to understand and…
The most important thing a biology tutor can do isn't just to lead them to the right answers but help them build confidence and self-motivation. As a tutor, I aim to help students develop independence. For me, a successful teacher is someone who can guide students to no longer needing one. I am quick to identify the strengths and weaknesses of…
I believe that tutoring for a student should be a safe zone space where they can make mistakes. Tutoring does not have the same pressue for a student that school can, as such it is important for a biology tutor to be patient and adaptive when a student is struggling with a concept. A tutor should welcome mistakes as an opportunity to grow. I also…
Establishing clear boundaries while being friendly and approachable; there is friendliness but understanding you are there to help them succeed. I draw a strong line that there is time for things, and the time spent with me is to learn and grow. Assisting students to see the value of education and inspiring a genuine appreciation for it are also…
I believe helping the student understand in their own way and time is the most important thing for them. Every student is different and requires different levels of attention or ways to learn different things. So understanding and respecting them is the always important to me. I believe also being knowledgeable is very important also. I’m…
Being able to help them find their rhythm in studying and learning. Making a subject easier to learn by simplifying concepts and condensing topics. Being patient with my students and understanding of how the most efficient learning method varies from student to…
As above, affirming their limitations JUST AS MUCH as their strengths - affirm, affirm, affirm! I believe the most fundamental truth is found in admitting and celebrating weakness. I would prioritise my strengths as:
- enthusiasm
- pedantic attention to detail
- strong synthesising skills and understanding across a wide range of…
the most important thing a biology tutor can do for a student is give them confidence in a subject they had no prior confidence in my strengths as tutor range for being a very patient individual that’s very understanding to being a great explainer of concepts and…
1) Helping students to reach their academic goals through personalised teaching, assessments and making learning fun.
2) Listen to what they have to say about school, including their achievements and struggles, and provide the necessary support.

We are very happy with Anh and her tutoring of Lana. We are taking a break over the school holidays and public holiday but will be back into it in a couple of weeks.
Anh was very generous with her time leading up to Lana's last exam and although not anticipated given the short lead up time, her results improved.
It's been a great decision for us to set the foundations for Lana with senior maths.
Afra has met with Jasmine once so far as we have had the holidays. I think it went really well and Jasmine is actually looking froward to her next lesson this Saturday.
Lazarus is very happy with Joseph.
I think Joseph will be a good fit for Lazarus' learning needs.
Biology tutoring in Churchill
For most students, biology doesn't seem that hard. The content isn't that intimidating and if you put in the time, more often than not results will follow.
No wonder most students get discouraged once they move up the curriculum. Getting the results becomes less about putting in the hours by going over the concepts and more about structuring the knowledge and connecting the dots. It's not simple revision anymore, and without someone to guide them, students can easily lose focus.
If you are thinking about finding someone to support your child's learning, we can match you with a local biology tutor in Churchill.
We've found that through guided learning, students are more likely to pick up skills they can use to learn other subjects and even make good decisions in their personal life as well. All we need is to have a chat with you so we can figure out what kind of support your child needs.
And this is how it works.
The tutoring is done at your home or a local library, wherever works for you. And the fees are simple - just an hourly rate, no extra fees.
The first lesson comes as a risk-free trial with a money-back guarantee. That means if for whatever reason your child doesn't click with the tutor right away, no need to worry - you let us know and we set up another trial.
As simple as that.
