The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to allow them to build up their own confidence in the subject that they are struggling in, as well as allowing them not to see the subject as a chore or something to avoid, but as an enjoyable and fun task that would be highly useful for the future! My strengths are that I would…

Being able to provide support.

Often when people don't understand something, it's because they aren't thinking about it correctly. Different subjects require different ways of thinking. Science is very cause and effect, focused on how and why. So if you're not used to thinking in very a step by step way (this causes that and that causes this), it can be hard to understand. So I…

Amy

Inside KoongamiaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Emmanuel worked on narrative writing, focusing on developing story structure and enhancing literary devices using examples from his own drafts.

For Year 10, Olivia tackled Physics problems involving rearranging equations for kinetic and gravitational potential energy, and practiced calculating total mechanical energy in real-world contexts.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Tiana reviewed differentiation techniques with exponential and trigonometric functions, including chain, product, and quotient rules for more complex calculus questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, a student's working out was slightly unstructured and hard to follow, making it difficult to select the right formulas in problem solving.

Another Year 9 student skipped important words in questions, leading to incomplete answers—he needs to focus on reading what is specifically asked of him.

In Year 8 science, one learner did not complete assigned homework on rearranging equations and scientific notation; this gap will be checked next lesson.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student frequently arrived without essential materials like ruler and calculator, which delayed progress during number tasks.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Koongamia noticed a Year 11 student who previously hesitated to ask questions now confidently requests clarification whenever he's unsure, which has led him to explain negative number problems out loud and correct his own mistakes.

In Year 8 maths, one student who used to rely on written calculations surprised the tutor by completing an entire practice test mentally—something he'd never managed before.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who often lost focus during reading stayed engaged throughout her novel study session and then revised her notes independently at home for the first time.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Melissa was wonderful & we look forward to seeing her again in a fortnight. She was so patient, encouraging, gentle & knowledgeable. Grace felt so special & clever afterwards she can't want to see her again.

We think Ingrid is fantastic.  She and Elizabeth have a wonderful rapport and we can already see improvements in Elizabeth's work.

The sessions are best summed up by Sasha herself after Tiasha left last Monday afternoon - "Mum do we get to fill in a questionnaire about Tiasha because I think she is a fantastic teacher. She's introducing me to new things and explains things in a way that I understand." - we are very happy so far.

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 Boya Public Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Clayton View Primary School.
