As mentioned above, it is extremely important for tutors to enjoy the content they are teaching. These attitudes are projected onto the willingness of students to engage with the subject. In addition to this, it is important for tutors to create and maintain relationships with their students that emulate trust and belief in their abilities. A…

I believe an english tutor should be a role model. Where they should embody not only the study skills they teach but also be honest, patient and a motivator, all whilst being professional. Through this a student can grow both academically and as a person allowing them to reap the rewards more deeply. A tutors role is to listen and provide their…

Provide a calm and supportive environment where learning is a partnership and where a strong relationship between tutor and learner is established. Having positive learning experiences are key to a child's success, along with making the learning fun and engaging. I have had 29 years experience as a classroom teacher. During this time I have…

I think close support and motivation especially during their examinations is crucial. Making the student sharp by regular homework/assignments and making them fall in love with the subject and eventually learning are very important in my opinion. Identifying students strengths/passion and grooming them is another very imperative factor. I think…

A tutor has to be able to not only teach them content but able to support students on an emotional and cognitive level as they progress through a subject/s that they may not like or are uncomfortable with as they have had bad memories of the subject. As an english tutor, it's integral that we can offer a holistic, effective approach to tutoring in…

Listen to them, let them teach you about themselves, let them have a go and try things and trial and error. No matter how many times they get it wrong they will always learn more by putting the effort in rather than just being given the answer. Also find out what techniques help them learn best, some students can pick up things in different ways…

As someone who has personally had an english tutor in recent years, I understand the most important things a tutor can do for a student is being patient and understanding. Being able to adapt learning styles and being flexible with each child's different pace, is an important aspect of tutoring. I will put in lots of hard work to constantly…

Although my goal is to see them be at the top of their class, it is more important to see improvements in their tutor lessons and use the knowledge I give them at school to refine their skills I am very easy going and I have a lot of patience. So I am good with kids that are struggling to understand. I use the 4 predominant learning styles:…

Shainie has proven herself to be flexible and sensitive to my daughter's needs. I would recommend her, particularly if your child is struggling with various mathematical concepts. She is great.

Inside Barrack HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Molly worked on understanding proportionality in mathematics, specifically focusing on converting between km/hr and m/s using constants of proportionality.

Year 9 student Sophie tackled solving equations with fractions and revisited key algebra skills to reinforce her confidence.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Amy revised financial mathematics by working through tax and wages problems, and explored compound interest calculations relevant to the senior curriculum.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, a student hesitated to write out each step in algebra problems, leading to repeated sign errors and confusion when reviewing past work—"she frequently looks at the wrong information when referring back to worksheets," one tutor observed.

During senior-level financial maths revision, missing clear headings and labels made it difficult to track which question was being answered, causing extra time lost during test preparation.

Earlier in Year 8, anxiety around tests led to rushed reading of worded questions, so key details were missed or misunderstood.

Confidence dipped after mistakes but improved with clearer working and careful checking.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Barrack Heights noticed a Year 10 student who used to rush through algebra problems now pausing to check her working, spotting and fixing errors herself—something she hadn't done before.

In a recent high school session, another student who struggled with finance topics last term demonstrated clear improvement by accurately solving compound interest questions without prompting.

Meanwhile, a primary schooler who was previously hesitant to ask for help started bringing tricky geometry homework to the session and asking targeted questions about shapes and formulas.

Last week, that same student completed every worksheet question on her own for the first time.
