English Tutor Dapto, NSW
A tutor has to be able to not only teach them content but able to support students on an emotional and cognitive level as they progress through a subject/s that they may not like or are uncomfortable with as they have had bad memories of the subject. As an english tutor, it's integral that we can offer a holistic, effective approach to tutoring in…

English Tutor Kembla Heights, NSW
I believe the most important thing an english tutor can do is tailor their approach to each student’s unique needs, fostering the development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills. This not only helps students gain confidence but also equips them with the tools to tackle educational challenges and take ownership of their learning. My…

Personally, an english tutor is someone outside of school who the student can rely on for their studies. Students show their vulnerability here so that tutor can build them to be strong at school. So a tutor can help the student be strong on their subjects and understand the subject with life. Understanding the student on what they need first and…

English Tutor Dapto, NSW
There are many important things that can be listed but my top things would be building confidence and promoting independence and understanding. A tutor should create a safe, supportive space where mistakes are okay and effort is celebrated. I am highly patient and try to break concepts down into simpler terms and action steps. I’ll never get…

English Tutor Albion Park Rail, NSW
As someone who has personally had a tutor in recent years, I understand the most important things a tutor can do for a student is being patient and understanding. Being able to adapt learning styles and being flexible with each child's different pace, is an important aspect of tutoring. I will put in lots of hard work to constantly improve my…

Flexible tutor that accommodated our Yr 12 student's tight schedule. She feels like her tutor listens to her questions, explains better than her teacher and are so grateful for the extra help.

Inside WongawilliTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Cailyn focused on two-step equations, practising changing the subject to isolate pronumerals and applying operations to both sides.

Year 10 student Daniel worked through questions involving VATs and straight-line value depreciation, as well as revising key financial mathematics definitions.

Meanwhile, Nicholas in Year 11 concentrated on trigonometry, especially solving for unknown sides using SOHCAHTOA with the unknown in the denominator, and reviewed related right-angle triangle problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 3 student repeatedly guessed answers in maths rather than showing working or asking for help, especially during multiplication and division.

When unsure, she resisted reading questions aloud and became frustrated if prompted to explain her process—one tutor noted, "she wouldn't listen when I tried to clarify a concept."

In Year 10 algebra sessions, another student kept calculator work internal and rarely wrote out steps; as a result, sign errors went unnoticed until review.

For senior students tackling HSC topics like direct variation or trigonometry, incomplete memorisation of key formulas led to slow progress and confusion under time pressure.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Wongawilli noticed one Year 11 student who previously avoided asking questions now actively requests more challenging HSC algebra problems and works through them with increasing independence.

In another high school session, a Year 9 student who struggled to recall formulae for area has started bringing her own notes and uses them to substitute values confidently during lessons.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who once hesitated to tackle subtraction now feels accomplished after mastering the method, willingly choosing tougher problems without prompting—she finished last week's set by solving three new worded questions on her own.

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 Dapto District Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Dapto Public School.
