I understand the struggles of high school students - the anxiety of asking questions and the lack motivation to learn. A tutor should be able to create a safe space for communication to tackle problems and provide useful solutions to such issues. Also, an important characteristic an english tutor should have is to help motivate students with a…

To compliment and reinforce what a student is learning in their school. A tutor could even broaden their student's knowledge outside the classroom, and due to the more communication-based nature of tutoring as opposed to learning in class, an english tutor could potentially spark inspiration in their students for what they are learning.

Inside JerrabomberraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Ari focused on statistics by practicing mean, median, mode, and range calculations as well as creating box-and-whisker plots and interpreting outliers.

In Year 9, Noah worked through essay planning for English, including developing thesis statements and topic sentences for an analytical essay on Tim O'Brien's novel 'The Things They Carried', and also practiced writing vignettes inspired by the text.

For Year 3, Josh completed basic addition exercises using number lines and jump counting, then moved to addition with counters to reinforce mental arithmetic strategies.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 English, one student deleted an entire essay after a teacher requested a new format but did not respond to feedback emails or submit drafts for review—this reluctance to share work limited editing opportunities before the extended due date.

A Year 9 student "forgot to bring his homework" for two consecutive lessons, meaning time was lost revisiting previous tasks rather than progressing with new content.

In primary maths, a Year 4 student's written work remained messy and steps were skipped when solving problems involving area and perimeter; as one tutor observed, "he needs to be neater in his presentation of work."

Recent Achievements

One Jerrabomberra tutor noticed a Year 11 student who previously struggled with essay structure now taking the initiative to email their thesis drafts and questions between lessons, leading to much clearer arguments in their writing.

In Year 8 maths, another student, after hesitating to ask for help before, has started openly discussing confusing problems—he's now working through linear equations step by step rather than skipping tricky parts.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once rushed reading tasks is now pausing to make predictions about story outcomes before moving on, showing more thoughtful engagement with texts.
