Chemistry Tutor Orchard Hills, NSW
First and foremost, a tutor should be able to connect with students on a personal level. The tutor should facilitate students to seek knowledge for themselves. The tutor should establish new ways to help students learn how to do work independently. I possess excellent organizational and communication skills. I also have good subject knowledge and…

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to personalise the learning to suit the student's strengths, to work on their weaknesses but highlight strong points to instil confidence. A tutor must treat the student as an individual and listen carefully rather than just applying the same format for each student. Through a combination…

The most important thing for a tutor to do is to make sure the student can feel confident, making the subject enjoyable to learn, rather than stressful and disheartening. I try to understand what part they are struggling with, so I can help them understand, rather than learn rote answers. So this means I'm patient, and a good…

I think the tutor's presence, being there for the student to offer help is an important thing a tutor can do for a student. Sometimes parents can get busy and school can be stressful. Being a tutor is not limited to teaching these students in their study. Tutors can also be their friends. As tutors, we can also help students develop their…

The most important thing a tutor can do is foster a sense of understanding where a student is not just learning for the sake of it but can truly understand the implications of the subject matter and why certain things occur. This helps to develop critical thinking skills and an intrinsic motivation to learn that extends beyond memorisation and…

The most important things are to provide guidance and nurture their motivation so that they can accomplish their educational goals. The challenges that the students face with a subject can only be overcome by the students. Tutors can assist by explaining the concepts and providing examples, but the students' motivation is necessary as only then…

Chemistry Tutor Colyton, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do is to realise when a student actually understands a topic, or if they need more help. Too often students will say that they understand but they don't want to admit they still don't. The tutor should be able to break down a subject in multiple ways, and choose which way fits particular students' learning…

Gabriel was extremely helpful as a tutor and was very keen on building skills and encouraging improvement with my brother. He was always actively engaged with Soobaan and I would keep him in mind for tutoring in future.

Inside PenrithTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 11 student Daniel worked through calculus differentiation, focusing on applying the chain rule and product rule to a range of function types.

For Year 10, Jessica practised solving simultaneous equations and explored how bearings relate to trigonometry using real-world navigation examples.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Liam reviewed patterns and sequences within selective school exam practice papers, identifying number rules and extending simple patterns.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student struggled with homework completion in calculus, leading to gaps when applying differentiation rules and missing out on valuable feedback—"Homework was uncompleted, and should be paid more attention to within the near future."

In Year 12 Chemistry, one student's tendency to get hung up on mistakes visibly shook her confidence during balancing equations; as a tutor observed, "she gets hung up on mistakes, which greatly affects her confidence if she makes a mistake."

Meanwhile, a Year 7 learner repeatedly misread multi-step probability questions by skimming for keywords instead of highlighting details. This habit led to repeated small errors and wasted exam time hunting for corrections.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Penrith noticed Samantha, a Year 12 chemistry student, now confidently tackles long response questions by breaking them down herself and applying her titration knowledge—something she hesitated with previously.

Max, in Year 10, recently started using opposite operations to solve algebraic expressions and expanded brackets independently, showing much more initiative during problem-solving than before.

Meanwhile, Raessah (Year 3) surprised her tutor by planning out her extended writing pieces and skimming texts for main ideas on her own instead of waiting for guidance; she also used physical money to work out change without prompting.

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 Penrith City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Nicholas of Myra Primary School.
