I believe the most important thing is to have a routine, be reliable, and to have the student be a part of every decision in their learning. My time with a student is not about a test or exam. It is about creating the skills for a student to be able to improve as they move through school and beyond. This is something that is going to be…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to understand the needs of their student and develop effective resources that work for THAT student. It is also important to recognise what kind of work load people are capable of handling so that you do not overwhelm them with tasks, as this would be counterproductive. So I guess,…

A tutors responsibility isn't to provide answers, but to guide students to find their way of learning and to provide alternative approaches when tackling problem scenarios or questions. To be a successful tutor is to develop students mindsets and enable them to eventually trust in their instinct and decide for themselves the best way to go about a…

Support and patience. Trying to force too many things at once can only frustrate somebody attempting to better themselves, following a pace the student is best learning at is crucial. Frustration and not grasping an idea or a concept can lead to giving up, which is why support and again patience are key. I'm reliable, patient and easy to talk to.…

Nathan was finding physics as a difficult subject but ever since we started tutoring with Rishi it has made a positive difference. Rishi is extremely committed and dedicated and we are looking to continue tutoring with Rishi for next year.

Inside AlisonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Simran worked on solving simultaneous equations and deepened understanding of algebra principles and inequalities, practicing both graphical and algebraic methods.

In Year 10, Emily focused on financial maths by calculating interest amounts and exploring how time periods affect rates of interest.

Meanwhile, Year 4 Ruby built confidence with long addition involving large numbers, as well as recognising the place value of units, tens, hundreds, and thousands within multi-digit numbers.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student in Alison tends to forget the steps after eagerly doing them, as a tutor observed, and often leaves working unclear, making it harder to review errors—especially in algebraic fractions.

In Year 8 maths, confusion between indices and multiplication has led to repeated mistakes (He is often found confusing indices and multiplication).

A Year 4 learner struggled with focus during fractions work; distractions made multi-step problems more challenging.

For a senior student tackling inequalities, incomplete coverage due to time management meant core revision topics were left unfinished.

The pattern: missing written steps or rushing leads to shaky recall later.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Alison noticed a big change in Josh, a high school student who had previously struggled with algebra—he now solves simultaneous equations independently using substitution and even identified where he was getting stuck before.

Another high schooler, Lincoln, moved from relying on prompts to independently tackling area problems during sessions.

Meanwhile, Ruby in Year 3 surprised her tutor by figuring out why the order of numbers doesn't affect multiplication results—a breakthrough with times tables after she'd been hesitant about them. Last session ended with Ruby confidently multiplying three numbers together without needing any hints.

What they say about our tutoring

Nicholas seems happy with Gaj and already he is seeing improvements in his understanding of the maths topics he has covered.  Nicholas is more motivated with maths now and his confidence has improved greatly.

Graeme is happy with Gajith as it is great to have someone who can explain how to answer the question on the spot.

Thank you for the follow up email. Eden is already streaking ahead with the help of Nicole. She is great at what she does. Eden enjoys the tutoring sessions & feels comfortable with Nicole. Nicole is also very accommodating regarding upcoming tests etc & is willing & able to schedule additional sessions, if & when required. I am very happy with the progress so far.

English tutoring in Alison

No one has doubts about the importance of English in the Australian school curriculum. Not only is it a mandatory subject to complete year 12, but it's a useful life skill. Verbal and written language skills are crucial in the information age. Comprehending texts, textual analysis, structuring written reports, refining creative processes and applying a structure to them, articulating thoughts concisely ... these skills are going to be useful in just about any career path. Of course, it all starts in the school classroom.

Maybe your child just needs to catch up to the class or work on some specific weaknesses or get ahead of the class. Whatever your needs, a tailored approach is what works best for most students so that they can as their English tutor questions in a safe, comfortable and non-rushed environment. That's how learning happens, and that is what we facilitate.
