I believe the most important things an english tutor can do for a student are to create a safe and encouraging learning environment, build the student’s confidence, and help them develop independent learning skills. Beyond explaining content, a tutor should listen carefully, be patient, and adapt their teaching to the student’s needs. By doing…

English Tutor West Hobart, TAS
I think a successful tutor encourages a love of learning and can motivate a student to continue beyond initial challenges. I can explain things clearly. I also believe I am good at setting people at ease - I'm approachable, and I know what it's like to be the shy…

Ensure they meet there every need and ensure a student is enjoying their learning, because if there not enjoying they won’t do well. Being polite and patient with students is crucial as it may take a while for them to understand but encouraging them and having their back will bring out their confidence and it will show in their results aswell.…

Inside LindisfarneTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Scarlett worked on recognising Greek and Latin roots in words and practiced using correct punctuation, focusing on commas and hyphens.

In Year 11 Chemistry, Aimee tackled stoichiometry problems involving mole-mass conversions and reviewed balancing chemical equations through teacher-provided questions.

Charli, a Year 12 Biology student, revised the adaptive immune system by applying her knowledge to exam-style questions and also recapped CRISPR-Cas9 gene technology principles.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student hesitated to begin her memoir, "stalling and avoiding the writing task," which meant strong ideas weren't making it onto the page.

In VCE Chemistry, a Year 12 learner sometimes skipped showing all calculation steps or left out units—her tutor noted, "she should spell out her workings so she can avoid mistakes."

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student tackling biology revision only reviewed familiar material instead of practicing with new SAC-style questions; this led to gaps in recall under pressure.

When feedback was given on drafts or marked-up assignments, it wasn't always addressed before moving on.

Recent Achievements

One Lindisfarne tutor noted a real shift in Aimee's approach to chemistry: after previously hesitating to tackle unfamiliar topics, she now attempts challenging SAC questions before class and openly asks for clarification when stuck, showing genuine initiative.

Charli has started proactively highlighting areas she finds tricky in biology sessions; rather than guessing, she now requests targeted help and checks her understanding by drawing diagrams—a big step from staying quiet about uncertainties.

Meanwhile, Cameron recently wrote a creative short story with clear enthusiasm and accepted feedback on grammar without frustration, finishing all the adverb practice questions quickly and correctly.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Darius is fantastic. He is extremely dedicated and well mannered. He often stays more than 1 hour to make sure Harry understands everything they have covered. Harry has become enthusiastic toward maths and he can already see improvements. Thank you so much for referring Darius, he has been a life saver!

We are extremely happy with Wageesha and she is to be commended on the wonderful job she has done with my children. She is extremely conscientious and a positive role model for my children.

Tamara has been a great help on Wednesday afternoons for the homework club program. The students have responded well to her and she has a small cohort that continuously seek her help. I am sure she will continue to have a permanent and measurable impact beyond the initial motivational boost. 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 State Library of Tasmania—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Cuthbert's Catholic School.
