What made my tuition experience incredible was how reassuring and supportive my tutor was of me. They always took that extra step to ask me how my day was, and genuinely inquire about it while I did my work. Alongside this, they would show their appreciation and pride when I'd do something correctly, while carefully calling out my mistakes, and…

Confidence is the most important thing an english tutor can bring to a student struggling with English. Knowledge and new skills can be taught to anyone, but a tutor should be able to instil a confidence within student so they can bring these skills into their learning but also into their everyday life. This is achieved by building relationships…

The number one most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is make sure that the student builds a strong understanding of the content. There is a difference between knowing how to work out a problem, and why a problem is solved the way it is. I think that when you understand the why instead of just how it becomes very simple to…

I believe that tutors must have a good attitude and genuinely enjoy the concepts and the subject. Without this, the student will most likely find the tutoring bland and boring, which would reduce their engagement and their overall performance and knowledge in the subject. My experience as a tennis coach has shown me how different students learn at…

I think that an english tutor should be approachable - the student shouldn't be afraid to say that they don't understand something. After all, the tutor is there to help the student through any new concepts and ensure that they are taught in an easy to understand way. The tutor should be able to adapt to the student's most effective learning…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is reassure them that it is perfectly normal to not understand a topic straight away.

Freya and Lidia get on really well, Lidia is gentle, firm and positive all at the same time which works well for Freya. Freya’s confidence is growing already and she did better in her last weekly maths test than she usually does which was a boost for her confidence.

Inside Chandlers HillTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Charlotte worked on using the sine and cosine rules to solve triangle problems and practised applying trigonometric ratios for unknown sides.

Year 10 student Mia focused on quadratic equations, including finding x- and y-intercepts in algebraic expressions, and revised surds simplification techniques.

For Year 11, Liam completed an assignment exploring mortgages and interest rates, then analysed how compound interest and appreciation affect loan repayments over time.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Science, skipping units and not showing all working in experiments led to confusion when interpreting results—she forgot to write units for several measurements, making the data hard to compare.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student's research project stalled because referencing wasn't used to back up claims, leaving findings unsupported.

In Year 9 Maths, working out was sometimes omitted during factorisation questions; this made it tough to pinpoint calculation slips.

A senior English student struggled with sentence structure and linking ideas smoothly in essays, which caused arguments to feel disjointed despite strong content knowledge.

Recent Achievements

A Chandlers Hill tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who'd struggled to link equations and their graphs now independently explains how changing an equation shifts its graph—something that used to trip her up.

In Year 9 English, one student has started asking for feedback on essays before submitting them, instead of just handing in drafts without review; this shift is helping him catch structure issues early.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who often hesitated during class discussions contributed her own ideas about improving experiments in science last week, speaking up without prompting from the tutor.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

So far so good with Stephen ... Charlie has really taken to him and we are very happy with him and the work he has done so far.

Carla is very happy with Aisling. We are gratefull that she is able to assist us.

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 Aberfoyle Park (The Hub) Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Craigburn Primary School.
