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.
A tutor should understand a student's struggle and achievements, and be able to bring out the fun in studying to help them in their academic struggles. I encourage and motivate students to excel and set a foundation for future studies, as well as providing an entertaining and educational environment suitable for each student. As a current student…
Quick to answer question with confidence to lead the student to success.
Apart from my strengths, that I do think are important qualities to have as a biology tutor, being reliable in terms of having an answer to a student's question is important.
I am good at problem solving so will generally handle such a situation well, but experience…
Teaching math or English?! students can get that information from books, the internet, online courses and so many other ways. But things that a crafty and caring tutor would do is to support, understand, and talk, in one word, be there for the student.
Being a friend and caring about every student, realising their talent and the ways they…
I find it important for students to know and feel that their individual needs are heard, understood and attended to. It would be most important to follow through all plans, tailored to their needs, with actions that allow the students to realise their progress.
By also validating their strengths and identifying their self-limiting beliefs, I…
I believe the most important thing a biology tutor can do is help the student learn to love learning. As well as that, I believe it's important to make the student feel more confident in their abilities and help them persevere through difficult tasks. I think my strengths include understanding, compassion, being able to explain a specific process…
I believe it is important for a biology tutor to always take time to properly understand problems that a student could be having with whatever they are trying to understand and consider the best ways to help the student to understand the question in a way that works well with the student's learning. I am patient and willing to take the time to…
Throughout my tertiary studies, I have found that the key to learning anything is finding the point of interest for a person and developing that area so that the subject as a whole becomes enjoyable. For any student, progress will naturally vary and giving them that support and encouragement to persevere and overcome hurdles in their learning is,…
Thanks for the follow up. We are happy with Aprinder and pleased with the progress Flynn is making.
We are really happy with Vivienne. She is very patient and explains things extremely clearly. Already had a 74% which for a child who is almost maths dialexic this was fabulous. Anyway we are very happy with her
Thankyou
Hi Erica, thank you for your email. Things have started well with Jacob and hopefully they will continue in the same way. I think in this case, the difference for Jamie is that she can ask Jacob about a problem that she is struggling with and he can answer her straight away. Vivian was able to answer her too but it took her longer and I think the time factor was what was frustrating Jamie. As I'm sure you are aware in year 12 there is such a time crunch that any delays just add more pressure.
Biology tutoring in Kallista
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 Kallista.
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.
