Science Tutor Mayfield, NSW
The tutor needs to care about the student's learning. They need to understand the way each student learns best and mould their pedagogy to fit the student. The tutor needs to be able to recognise consistency in errors so that they can make the student aware of where they are going wrong and can help fix it. The tutor also needs to be patient and…

Science Tutor Mayfield, NSW
A tutor needs to listen to a student, to understand what the best methods of learning will be, and needs to adapt their teaching to work for any student, rather than just forcing a student into a single mindset. I explain things very carefully, with multiple ways of looking at something, so I am quite flexible in trying to work with a student. I…

Local Reviews

Jaya has a gentle but firm way with Charli who really struggles with confidence in her maths. Charli has come ahead leaps and bounds in her abilities over the last year and that is definitely due to Jaya's guidance and support. I would highly recommend Jaya to anyone who is looking for support for their child.

Inside FletcherTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Arjun worked on basic algebraic equations and strategies for unit conversion, practicing step-by-step problem solving.

In Year 9, Ava focused on straight-line equations by formulating lines using gradient (m) and y-intercept (c), along with tackling advanced exam-style questions involving gradients.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Ethan revised non-right-angled trigonometry concepts and bearings, completing challenging past paper problems to deepen his understanding.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to extract data from long worded problems in maths, often losing motivation partway through. As a tutor noted, "she gets demotivated when the question has a lot of words and fewer pictures," which meant essential details were missed during multi-step tasks.

In Year 10 algebra, another found it hard to keep track of variable signs, with working skipped or only partly shown—leading to repeated sign errors and less feedback from the marker.

During HSC preparation, a senior student submitted short, shallow formal responses; incomplete answers left exam markers unsure about her reasoning.

Recent Achievements

A Fletcher tutor recently noticed Molly, a Year 10 student, shifting from needing step-by-step guidance with straight-line equations to independently extracting data and forming the equations herself during sessions.

In Year 8 maths, Janae used to hesitate when tackling algebraic problems but now solves multiple questions on her own without prompting and recalls methods from earlier lessons.

Meanwhile, Georgia in Year 11 has begun explaining annuity table calculations more clearly—her answers are now both more concise and detailed compared to her initial brief responses. Last week, she completed an advanced financial maths question without any hints.

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 Wallsend Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Bishop Tyrrell Anglican College.
