I believe that is most important for an english tutor to create a positive and inclusive environment for students. This environment allows students to feel a sense of belonging. I believe it's crucial to allow all students to effectively participate in tutor lessons and always be there to help the students. I believe it's important to be flexible…

English Tutor Cabramatta, NSW
When I was at school, my favourite teachers were always the relatable ones who were genuinely interested in me, my hobbies and my life. This connection is important for many reasons, not only to be a good tutor but to also be a confidant in times of crisis. In the past I have worked with children who had special needs. Being close to the student…

English Tutor Canley Vale, NSW
I believe one of the most important things an english tutor can do for a student is serve as a secondary teacher/mentor to a school teacher. As school teachers have to focus on a large class (usually around 30 students), they are unable to address the needs of each student. As each student has their own struggles and needs, an exterior tutor…

I think the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is listen to what they are asking, and targeting their weak areas within the prospective subject. By doing so the tutor should aim to tailor each lesson accordingly. I think my strengths as a tutor would be my perseverance, clarity when explaining concepts, the ability to…

I don't hope to replace the school teachers completely. However 1 to 1 and smaller group engagements would help put in a more personal touch that would minimize the weakness of the student, bring the best out of them and build character (patience, resilience, analytical thinking) to supplement them to succeed in their education journey Analytical…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is teach them the formulaic way of how to study.

The most important part of an english tutor's job is to encourage the student and to also recognise any signs in the student that they may not understand what is being taught to them. Many children are shy when admitting that they don't completely comprehend a subject and it is important to let them know that they can share their insecurities…

Listen to their ideas and help them realise how they can be moulded to fit the criteria that is set for them to meet.

I can explain concepts quite well, and I make…

Local Reviews

Sam has been an excellent, kind, understanding and patient tutor with Gabriella. Under his guidance she has made improvements in her outcomes and study habits in spite of her great difficulties with the subject. She had gone from a fail grade to a pass mark and has steadily applied herself more consistently to regular study thanks to Sam. We have nothing but praise for his abilities.

Inside Fairfield WestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Elizabeth revised surds and indices in preparation for an upcoming test, focusing on simplifying expressions and practicing key skills.

Year 8 student Elena worked through interpreting column graphs in data topics and practiced simplifying algebraic expressions by collecting like terms.

For Year 9, Jacob focused on solving equations with variables on both sides and expanded to equations involving brackets, using worked examples for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student arrived unprepared for a school test, only discovering it during class—this lack of organization meant key revision was missed and results suffered.

For a Year 8 student, homework was attempted just minutes before the session, with half forgotten and focus fading throughout; as one tutor put it, "he was very tired during the whole lesson."

In Year 6, skipping working steps and jumping straight to answers led to basic calculation errors in division tasks.

Meanwhile, a primary student avoided multiplication altogether due to not memorizing times tables, often leaving gaps when faced with these questions.

Recent Achievements

One Fairfield West tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 9 student who, after often hesitating to ask for help, now comfortably asks clarifying questions when confused—something he rarely did before.

In Year 11, another student began catching and correcting her own mistakes in scientific notation, quickly adopting new problem-solving techniques instead of repeating errors.

Meanwhile, a younger primary school student surprised her tutor by independently re-opening her notebook during fractions work to check past lessons for help—showing new initiative she hadn't demonstrated before.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you so much for your email. We are so very happy with how things  are progressing. I can already see Keeleys confidence improving and I can hear her understanding coming along as I listen to the session. Dennis is a fantastic tutor! He is very understanding and patient. He is a lovely man, very friendly and has amazing manners and people skills. I will be recommending your company to anyone I know in the same situation. Thanks again.

Zara has been a real help so far to Naomi who looks forward to seeing her each week after school. Zara is always on time and has a lovely approach, which Naomi has warmed to and she now feels less intimidated by her maths work.

We are really quite happy at present with Peter. He has been helpful and he and Lucy get along well.
