English Tutor Grose Wold, NSW
One of the most important things an english 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…

English Tutor Richmond, NSW
The utterly most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to listen and understand. To listen to them talk about where they need the extra help and why the believe they do not get the certain material, and to understand how they best learn. I believe that tutoring is beneficial to both parties as I am able to teach my students as…

Inside KurmondTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sienna practiced the split and compensation strategies for addition and subtraction, as well as multiplication fundamentals, through step-by-step worked examples.

In Year 8, Luke focused on algebraic equations by learning how to move pronumerals across the equals sign and applying BODMAS rules to simplify expressions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Isaac revised key skills in mathematics by tackling word problems involving fractions and reviewing BODMAS alongside long division techniques.

Recent Challenges

During a Year 10 algebra lesson, a student frequently lost focus, doodling instead of working—"he often writes something on his page or does a drawing which significantly lowers his concentration," noted the tutor. This led to forgotten formulas and trouble applying them to mixed problems.

In Year 8 English, another student's knowledge gaps persisted after long breaks with no revision; attempts to recall previous work resulted only in basic answers, showing weak retention.

Meanwhile, a primary student preparing an adolescent presentation left compulsory criteria unfinished until the last minute, causing unnecessary stress as the deadline loomed.

Recent Achievements

One Kurmond tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to get distracted easily during maths; this week, he maintained focus for the whole lesson and showed real interest by comparing time zones without prompting.

In a recent high school English session, another student took feedback on essay structure seriously and began drafting paragraphs more independently, rather than waiting for hints.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner who previously hesitated to ask questions now actively seeks help when stuck on place value problems, even explaining her thinking out loud before moving on to new sums.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Kaitlyn and Jet have had a wonderful start to the term. Judging by the two lessons his had she has managed to make a world of difference already. Kaitlyn has a wonderful personality and has so much patience. I have nothing but praise for her.

We are so far really happy with jun woo. He is highly competent and seems to be doing a great job with Ashton.

Isabelle is lovely and she and Sara hit it off in their first session. We would definitely like to continue with Isabelle, thank you.

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 Richmond Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kurmond Public School.
