I believe that understanding is the most important thing an english tutor must do for a student.

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to give them a sense of confidence when they return the classroom after having something explained to them in a way they can understand.

I view the role of an english tutor as more of a assistant to the teacher. I main goal for the a tutor is to go in-depth on discussed in the classroom allowing the students to wrap their head around concepts that were once perceived as difficult and challenging. It is the tutors role to teaching correct habits and strategies to tackle difficult or…
In my opinion, the role of an english tutor goes beyond simply imparting knowledge. The most important things a tutor can do for a student are to inspire confidence, make them love learning, and equip them with the tools to thrive independently. It's about being a guiding light through challenges, a source of motivation, and a trusted resource for…
A tutor shouldn't be the individual who would only be associated with studies and stuff. A tutor should be someone to whom a student can approach with any sorts of problem with the expectation that their tutor can find a solution to it. Moreover, an english tutor should be a guiding light to the student. - Communication

So many children and even adults struggle with feeling inedquate or embarrassed about their academic abilities, especially in maths, and I want to break down that psychological barrier.

In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
What they say about our tutoring
Thanks Gene, so far, Jamie's response has been very good. He has had 2 lessons to date, as last week was cancelled at our request (he was away on camp).
Jamie has responded very well to Eshan, who's approach is unassuming, gentle, but persuasive and constructive. Jamie actually looks forward to spending time with Eshan to teach him his Maths strategies.
We look forward to seeing Eshan again next week.
Thanks also for the newsletter. I have to say that I think your supportive written material is very useful!
All is great with Nathan.
He's a lovely man and April has her block testing for maths tomorrow and she's confident- a good sign.
April will now have a couple of weeks break due to holidays but Nathan will certainly be coming back.
April quietly winges  about the homework Nathan sets for her but we don't interfere and are glad that Nathan makes sure its completed as April's attitude to maths was pretty bad.
Anne is loving tutoring and James is doing an amazing job so yes we are very happy and wish to continue!
