The most important things a tutor can do for a student is help them plan out their long term goals and break them down into smaller steps that can show quick progress and continue to motivate the student to reach their final goal. Ultimately, I seek to act as a mentor for students to not only assist their academic results but more importantly…

The most important thing a 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.

Generally, students that seek the help of a tutor are struggling with the approach of their teacher to explaining a certain subject. This creates a cycle of feeling overwhelmed and avoiding the subject.

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

Thank you for the report. We are very happy with Kim's approach and way of teaching . Yejeena is very responsive to her and enjoying her learning. She has become more confident in school and starting to put her hand up to answer questions when her teacher asks questions from the the class. It seems to us that , Kim also is enjoying working with Yejee and very happy with Yejee's attitude toward her extra study hours after school.

Both Ashleigh and myself are very happy with Duncan. Ashleigh is already feeling much more confident and I believe that she will progress steadily.

Tutoring with Robert is going extremely well. Robert has an excellent way of explaining concepts and Tara and Ethan are already feeling more confident with their maths.

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.
