I think the most important thing that an english tutor can do is be supportive. Students are already frustrated when they do not understand something, hence we do not need to add to that by being frustrated at them. In addition, a tutor needs to be flexible. This allows one to better tailor the program to the student's needs and the student's…

English Tutor Camperdown, NSW
The most important thing for an english tutor is that they explicitly explain concepts to a student. This should be done in a way that makes the most intuitive sense to the student. Also, for me, it is essential that a tutor, as well as teaching students, teaches them how to study by themselves and how to teach themselves. This should be done by…

I consider patience and dedication to be the most valuable qualities an english tutor can provide. The student needs to feel supported in a learning environment to succeed, especially if it is a subject they aren't particularly strong at. As a former HSC student, I honestly felt the 'tough love' approach some tutors had would deter me from wanting…

The clever tutor can know whether the student understands the information or not. He should get that without waiting for the student to tell him. As a result, he should redeliver the information but in a new way. I usually link between the theory and its application. I am interested in finding new interactive tutoring strategies. I try to deliver…

The most important thing is to still keep the learning process enjoyable. Only this way will the student continue to want to learn even outside of the tutoring hours. If studying and work is made to seem like something they just have to complete and tick off, or if tutoring sessions become a time they dread every week, this well spend less time on…

I think the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is wholly believe in their capabilities. If a tutor/ teacher doesn't think that a student can succeed then it's pretty impossible to effectively help. Of course, this goes the other way as it is a tutors responsibility to ensure that the student believes in their own ability to…

Personally, I really value building a connection with the tutoring student.

Therefore I think the most important part is to listen to the student's…

Make studying enjoyable for students rather than making it feel like a burden. Solve their doubts (several times if needed) till they fully understand the concept. Be patient with a student.

Make sure that they are just not able to solve problems but that they also understand the concepts behind the problem. I feel like while being a tutor I am relearning the subject myself.

I would say patience, a solid knowledge, and persistent is the most important things an english tutor can do for a student. Solid knowledge goes without saying. Patience is to understand that each child is different and has distinct ways to teach. It is to give the children enough time to get close to you and open up to accepting your input.…

Inside CamperdownTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Daniel practised solving simultaneous equations and tackled algebraic word problems, focusing on setting up equations from written scenarios.

In Year 11, Chloe reviewed financial maths topics such as annuities and recursion, alongside graphing parabolas and factorising quadratic expressions using worked examples.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student explored maximisation and minimisation of functions in calculus, working through optimisation questions and interpreting their results in real-world contexts.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Science, a student mixed up units and directions for electric field lines, making it difficult to answer application questions accurately.

For a Year 10 Physics session, confusion over which equations applied to specific problems slowed progress—"he needed reminders to pick the right formula," noted one tutor.

In Year 12 Maths, another struggled with laying out each calculation step clearly, leading to "numbers getting confused in his head" during trig questions. These moments meant extra time spent retracing steps instead of building confidence for upcoming assessments.

Recent Achievements

One Camperdown tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 11 student who used to freeze up when faced with hard calculus problems; now, he's confidently tackling challenging sequences and series questions from past papers without hesitation.

In another session, a Year 10 student who previously guessed her way through graphing tasks started breaking down each question methodically—she now asks clarifying questions instead of rushing ahead.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 student who struggled to finish maths exercises alone was able to complete every problem independently for the first time last week.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Stuart and Ben seem to have hit it off straight away and my son was very happy with his first lesson. It is still early days to really make a comment but Stuart seems like a very smart, helpful, pleasant young man and they both seem to share an interest in soccer.

Due to Nakita's tutor doing an amazing job last year, Nakita has not needed his skills for the beginning of this year, comprehending and understanding the maths content at school extremely well.

We are very happy with the tutoring services we are receiving through your company and my daughters tutor, Alfred. Alfred has been very flexible in fitting in with Jayda's schedule and learning needs and we foresee a lengthy tutoring relationship.

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 Newtown Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Newtown North Public School.
