The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is ensure the tutor works towards the students strengths and attempts to minimise their weaknesses. Tutors should also be considerate to their student by considering their needs and how they like to learn so that their student's highest potential is achieved. I believe I am patient,…

I think there are a couple of important things an english tutor can do for their student. The first is being a patient person who is going to push them to do the best they can, not rush them through their work. The second is being someone the student feels comfortable making mistakes in front of as mistakes are one of the most important parts to…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for students is to help them develop a strong understanding of the concepts they are studying.

A tutor should assist students in being able to…

To me, what tutors can do most effectively for students is to help them achieve their learning outcomes at the end of each lesson. There is a specific need for us to teach to the student's strengths while minimizing the student's weaknesses. With regards to tutoring, we are solely responsible for setting up a teaching method to assist the student…

Show commitment, whether its through showing up on time, or taking some of your spare time at home to mark their work. Also to support and encourage the individual to achiever their very best.

Inside Lucas HeightsTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 12 student Madison completed revision on Critical Path Analysis and Bivariate Data, tackling a mix of past exam questions and personal weak spots.

In Year 11, James focused on mastering Normal Distribution through targeted practice problems and began exploring Network Concepts to consolidate understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 6 student Mia worked through positive and negative integers using real-world examples, then practiced applying BIDMAS rules to multi-step equations for accuracy.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student in Chemistry was hesitant to start homework or practice questions without being prompted, making it harder to pinpoint which concepts truly needed extra support—"she waits for me to suggest what to try."

Meanwhile, a Year 10 student struggled to sustain her ideas in English written responses, especially when reading too quickly and missing crucial details in short answer tasks.

In Mathematics, a Year 8 student repeatedly avoided writing out working for algebra problems, leading to sign errors that slowed progress and forced frequent backtracking during the session.

Recent Achievements

A Lucas Heights tutor recently noticed a Year 11 student who, after struggling with previous exam mistakes, is now clearly recognising where she went wrong and confidently explaining how to fix those errors.

Another high schooler began asking for practice questions on new chemistry topics—something she hesitated to do before—and now tackles unfamiliar problems without waiting for prompts.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who was once reluctant to ask for help has started pinpointing the exact steps in maths that confuse him and openly requests clarification, then attempts similar problems independently right away.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Michael has made a huge difference already, and we are very happy with his work so far. Mia is listening to him and there is some great mutual respect happening. I love that when mia doesn't know something he ensures to not make her feel silly. It has helped her confidence Immensely.

Justin is very good and Athena although has only had 2 lessons with him, she is already finding him very helpful.

Right from the beginning Steph had a great rapport with Tara. She has been a couple of times now and I've never seen Steph so engaged with maths before.

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 Engadine Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Engadine West Public School.
