The most important thing an english tutor can do is give their student confidence. Helping them to realise that they can understand a concept or solve a problem should increase their confidence in themselves, which is a vital trait to have as they move forward in high-school and further on in life. I am very patient and hardworking. If i don't…

It sounds clichĂ© but it's helping unlock student potential. Many times a student is struggling is usually due to elements within the school or home environment that is hindering their progress, not their intrinsic intelligence. Tutoring can provide the means for a much more personal interaction where obstructions to learning can be quickly…

It is important to also identify what motivates and excites each student to learn and encourage active engagement in the tutoring sessions. As a tutor,…

I believe one of the most important things an english tutor can do for a student is be patient. If they are struggling to understand a subject, they are going to get more frustrated the longer it takes for them to grasp. I believe that it is exacerbated by the class moving on to another topic before the student is ready, and it is our job to work…

The most important thing for me I guess is to connect with them in a way they feel like they can be comfortable around me so that maybe then they get inspired to learn; to be an inspiration, that is.

I consider that the most important thing a student can do for a student is to never give up on the student. There are downtimes and a loss of motivation.

As soon as I first met Reyna I knew that she would be a great 'fit' for Alana. Reyna is friendly and genuine and knows how to 'reign' Alana in when she goes off in another direction. I am excited to see where Reyna can take Alana in her maths journey.

Inside AshmoreTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Olivia worked on extending her sight word vocabulary and used picture cues to practise predicting story events.

In Year 10, Peyton focused on applying index laws—covering multiplication, division, zero and negative indices—and practised solving linear equations with pronumerals on both sides using real-life word problems.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Lachlan reviewed Australia's Balance of Payments by exploring how foreign investment in the capital account connects to the current account, and analysed graphs to track changes in major Australian exports over time.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 Economics, Peyton's assignments often lacked detailed explanations and data; as a tutor noted, "her teacher wanted more evidence and links—similar to PEEL in English." She sometimes avoided revising unfamiliar terminology, which left her less confident in exams.

Meanwhile, Oliver (Year 9 Maths) struggled to stay organised during long lessons and sometimes brought incomplete notes, leading to gaps when reviewing for quizzes. "There was a bit of waiting for Rex to get organised," one session observed.

For Anthony (Year 3), avoidance strategies appeared when faced with new sight words, slowing progress on reading accuracy.

Recent Achievements

One Ashmore tutor noticed a real shift with Oliver, a high school student who now checks the wording of maths questions before answering—he used to rush and miss details, but recently he's been consistently scoring above 80% in his online practice.

Peyton, also in high school, has started preparing her own research and draft assignments for economics sessions, asking more focused questions about complex topics instead of waiting for direction.

In Year 3, Anthony engaged deeply with reading by spotting story clues in illustrations—previously he'd just listen passively—and was able to retell the story using those details.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Yes we are happy with the way things have started.  Ahmad-Firdauz has been very helpful and we believe has already helped Jayden improve is focus. Jayden has a math test today which we are hopeful show improved results even if by just a slight margin.

Jeevan is happy with Posearn's approach and seems to have settled well with the arrangement. He has been on time every lesson and seems to be a dedicated tutor. We are looking forward to seeing progress in Jeevan's Maths grades but for now we are pleased that he has someone he can turn to for help when he encounters problems with homework.

Kyle engaged with Josephine very quickly. He has a delightfully engaging and affirming nature. She opened up immediately and felt more confident to tackle maths problems in the session. Very pleased to have him on board.

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 Mobile Library Service—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ashmore State School.
