English Tutor Vineyard, NSW
I offer an early start for future legal, economics and business HSC students, which ensures they are ahead of time and build an understanding of the content prior to their senior year commencement. Through my experiences as a student and an english tutor, I believe connecting and sharing the burdens experienced by students is very important as it…

I believe the most important things an english tutor can do for a student are to provide clarity, build confidence, and foster independent thinking. First, offering clear explanations and breaking down complex concepts helps students understand the material more deeply. Second, encouraging and supporting students helps build their confidence,…

English Tutor Gables, NSW
I believe the most important thing an english tutor can do is build a student’s self-confidence. Often, the biggest barrier to learning is the fear of being 'bad' at a subject. A great tutor removes that fear by creating a structured environment where the student feels in control of their progress. Active listening to identify exactly where the…

English Tutor Riverstone, NSW
Many students struggle not because they lack ability, but because they doubt themselves. In this case, it is important for the tutor to encourage students and create a supportive learning environment in a way that helps the student see their progress. It is also important for an english tutor to guide the student through a question, rather…

English Tutor Hobartville, NSW
One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to give him or her self-confidence. I believe that this is especially important for struggling students. A tutor must encourage students and provide them with the tools required for academic success. A student should enjoy tutoring sessions whilst consistently improving during them.…

To be a mentor - a backup or second person to help and support them. Someone who can assist them in achieving their desired goals. A tutor should know the most important part of their position is fundamentally to be that helping guide. I am passionate and willing. I enjoy sharing my thought process and making things easier for someone else by…

Make their learning easier. This world is too complicated for students from a young age, and on top of that the pressure of studies and exams, feel like a lot. So by helping to make their studies easier and fun is what I think is the most important I think my strengths as a tutor is making my students comfortable around me, and helping them learn…

Abigail is a delightful tutor. Celina really likes her way of teaching.

Inside CornwallisTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 10 Charlize worked on comparing fractions with different denominators using visual aids and also practised long division strategies for multi-digit numbers.

For Year 11, Justine focused on circle geometry problems as part of exam preparation, working through specific question types from her homework set.

Meanwhile, Year 12 Abhinoor revised arithmetic sequences and series before tackling questions on linear regression, consolidating both algebraic skills and statistical understanding.

Recent Challenges

In Year 12 Business Studies, one student struggled to incorporate professional language in reports and was urged to "regularly review notes" instead of cramming before trials.

A different Year 11 Maths student often left homework incomplete, especially multi-step algebra and functions tasks; this meant concepts like steady-state probability weren't retained between sessions. As a tutor noted, "forgetting previous topics made new problems harder."

In Year 9 trigonometry, skipping written working led to repeated confusion over which side represented the hypotenuse. The absence of routine practice or feedback follow-up created small misunderstandings that snowballed by assessment time.

Recent Achievements

One Cornwallis tutor noticed a big shift in William, a high schooler who used to hesitate with algebra—he now tackles expressions independently using the distributive law almost entirely on his own and has started writing out information from word problems before solving, which wasn't his habit before.

Olivia, another secondary student, recently managed to apply her knowledge of interest rates and recall Pythagoras' Theorem unaided; she even picked up the basics of trigonometry within a single session.

In primary sessions, Sannae has become noticeably more independent when reading complex words—she now breaks them into chunks and sounds them out without waiting for help.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Henry was very happy with Hayden's style of tutoring. He found him clear and concise in the way he explained methods, and was teaching him the same way his teacher is at school. Whilst I was listening in the background I could hear that Hayden was very encouraging towards Henry which I'm sure gave him some confidence to tackle the next equation. I know that Hayden will leave more and more homework going forward, he was keen to get to know Henry as a person, identify his strengths and weaknesses first.

Chris is actually very happy with Shehara. He seems motivated. He's had two sessions with her and seems to like it so all good here.

Ally's tutoring is going well and Gopi is very nice. Ally's report was very positive and that makes me happy. I have spoken to Gopi about Ally's progress and informed her that we would like to extend Alexandra in Maths.

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 Hawkesbury Central Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Matthew's Primary School.
