Through tutoring courses, it is not only to improve academic scores, but also to learn how to study and how to treat life. Making students realize that there is always a solution to a problem builds their confidence and influences others. I do this by clearly and effectively teaching the fundamental concepts behind the material and making it…

Tutors need to be able help their students learn how to problem solve. Too often tutors prioritise getting the correct answer or achieving a high mark. Although that is one of the main reasons students have tutors, they need to support students so they can take on new questions rather than approach them with a memorised trick without understanding…

Tutors must foster growth, independence, and a goal-oriented mindset so that each student can strive to overcome learning challenges, recognise their milestones, and identify any incompetencies in their work. This will ultimately strengthen their academic confidence, and allow students to grow from their mistakes. I have been able to adapt to a…

To be there for a student in a more personal and approachable way than the modern education system and its teachers can be, to help 'fill in the gaps' that the student may have missed in class and to be there for the student if they feel like the education system has failed them. Too many schools focus on the groups needs rather than the…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student, in my opinion, is to teach the student how to think critically and laterally about the problems they face. My strengths as a tutor are definitely that while I don't push the students too hard I also don't just give them the answers. I give them the tools they need to work out the answers and…

Inside BalgownieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Ava worked on multiplication tables and reading comprehension, practicing spelling through sentence building activities.

For Year 8, Emily focused on fractions—using visual models to compare sizes—and practiced mental addition strategies like "friends of 10 and 20."

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Sebastien tackled essay planning for English Advanced, writing an introduction together for a long response question on All the Light We Cannot See and exploring how to integrate related texts into his writing.

Recent Challenges

A Year 4 student still relies on finger counting for addition and subtraction, as one tutor observed, "he confuses addition and subtraction," which slows problem-solving and affects confidence.

In Year 8 English, another struggled to structure comparative essays, hesitating with how to reference texts properly—missing marks even when ideas were strong.

For a senior student in Year 12 Chemistry, revision was often limited to familiar topics; more challenging concepts like spdf notation were left until the last minute.

One high schooler repeatedly left homework incomplete, leading to gaps that compounded week-to-week, especially ahead of tests.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Balgownie recently noticed a Year 11 student who used to stick closely to simple vocabulary now actively seeks out synonyms and refines her arguments, especially when drafting essays under time pressure.

In another high school session, Sebastien—who previously hesitated to ask questions—has begun preparing thoughtful queries about structuring creative writing tasks and regularly completes homework ahead of schedule.

Meanwhile, a younger student who once struggled with reading fluency is now pronouncing tricky words clearly and even read an entire story aloud without pausing for help.
