MATHEMATICS TUITION :-
Our mathematics lessons ensure that the students develop strong foundation and have deep fundamental knowledge of all mathematical concepts. The Newcastle Tutors Learning System consists of lessons, practice sessions, classwork, homework and tests. All programs at Newcastle Tutors are written in accordance with the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) syllabus, ensuring that every syllabus requirement is covered.
Emphasis is given on developing basic skills for solving complex problems methodically. Students are taught numerous mathematical concepts including theory, mental maths, and word problems from various mathematical topics. They are also taught to apply different strategies to different real-world problems.
At Newcastle Tutors, we recognise the importance of constant revision. As such, we also offer intensive revision programs designed to consolidate all coursework and fine-tune each student’s exam techniques. In addition, the student’s understanding is regularly assessed throughout the term via our regular tests.
Our tutors also utilise concrete learning aids and positive reinforcement, to ensure all students achieve success and have fun at the same time.
ENGLISH TUITION :-
During our English lessons at Newcastle Tutors, we ensure students have the opportunity to respond and compose to a wide range of texts relevant to their stage of development. We constantly work on developing a student’s reading comprehension, vocabulary, and grammar, which play a vital role in many other subjects. We enhance the student’s writing skills,an essential part of studying the English language, benefiting a student with confidence in their writing and general communication skills.
We achieve this through a close study of all text types, so that students develop knowledge, understanding, and skills required to be a successful and independent learner, both now and in the future.
We also help ESL students develop their English-speaking capabilities. Learning English is essential for success at school and for further education.Approximately 20% of all students (over 145,000 students) in NSW government schools are learning English as an additional language. More than 30% (over 240,000 students) are from a language background other than English.
Thinking skills and Mathematical reasoning :-
Thinking skills and Mathematical reasoning improves the student’s capacity to reason logically. The New South Wales Government aims to identify gifted and talented students and to maximize their learning outcomes in all public schools. Giftedness refers to potential distinctly beyond the average for the student’s age and encompasses a broad range of abilities in the intellectual, creative, socio-emotional, and physical domains.
Thinking skills and Mathematical reasoning is tested in the Opportunity Class test and the Selective Schools entry test.
