Science Tutor Glenlusk, TAS
The most important thing I can do for a student is provide the student with confidence and real time feedback. I compose myself in a approachable and transparent manner. Based on my former experience as a tutor, I have found students warm to me and form a sense of pride having me as their tutor. I can provide a very approachable, trustworthy and…

Science Tutor Lenah Valley, TAS
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to make the subject matter they are teaching enjoyable to learn. This is important because learning should be something we actively engage in and if a tutor can make it so the students seek out learning more readily then they have already succeeded in some sense. As a tutor my strengths are…

Science Tutor Sandy Bay, TAS
A tutor needs to help the students understand the concepts and the "why" behind the problem. This allows them to be able to solve problems on their own and increase their confidence. Creating a judgment-free and supportive environment, where students can ask questions and mistakes are not punished, is essential for a tutor to help a student…

Ensure they meet there every need and ensure a student is enjoying their learning, because if there not enjoying they won’t do well. Being polite and patient with students is crucial as it may take a while for them to understand but encouraging them and having their back will bring out their confidence and it will show in their results aswell.…

Inside Wellington ParkTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 Scarlett focused on improving her understanding of sentence structure, including independent and dependent clauses, and practiced editing for correct punctuation such as commas and hyphens using short writing tasks.

Year 11 Aimee worked through stoichiometry problems with a focus on mole-mass conversions, and later reviewed practice exam questions to consolidate her knowledge in Organic Chemistry.

Year 12 Charli revised the adaptive immune system by answering targeted questions, then moved on to applying knowledge about CRISPR-Cas9 gene technology through discussion and practice exam items.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 Chemistry, Aimee tended to overcomplicate multi-step questions and became overwhelmed by details—her tutor observed, "I demonstrated how to summarise the essential features of the questions and convert these to a meaningful form."

She also sometimes skipped labelling units in calculations, which led to errors during practice SACs.

Meanwhile, Scarlett (Year 6 English) often rushed written answers or hesitated at the start of creative tasks due to self-doubt; this resulted in incomplete first drafts and missing detail.

For Huy (Year 12 Biology), depth was lost when he didn't fully develop short answer responses despite understanding content.

Recent Achievements

A Year 12 chemistry student, Aimee, has started openly expressing uncertainty about concepts and now asks for clarification instead of pushing ahead confused—she recently applied a new problem-solving strategy to a tough equilibrium question she'd previously struggled with.

Charli, in Year 11 biology, demonstrated more independence by drawing diagrams from memory and checking her understanding without relying on notes, after initially hesitating to work without support.

Meanwhile, Zane in Year 8 took the initiative to paraphrase an article's main points and confidently asked for definitions when he hit unfamiliar words.

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 State Library of Tasmania—or at your child's school (with permission), like Dominic College.
