I feel the most important thing that an english tutor can do is to listen to the students as they explain what they don't understand and to help fully explain the solution of the problem to the student and to verify that the students understands the new concepts. I am patient with the students and I can work through many examples with the student…

From my experience with tutors, I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student are. Recognising someone's improvements, recalling how a student has overcome a challenge in the past can be a great motivator for the present as well as build self-confidence. Being a role model, students will be influenced by a tutor's method of…

One of the most important things a tutor can do is understand a students potential and pushing them to do to their best. I think I would be a good strict tutor who would push people to do their best. To me, the best tutoring style is one that caters to the specific student in their best learning…

Inside MarraraTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 Elise worked on adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators and completed a worksheet on integers, including negative numbers.

For Year 9 Amelie, the focus was on solving problems involving parallel and perpendicular lines as well as simultaneous linear equations, using practice worksheets to consolidate understanding.

Meanwhile, Year 10 Michael tackled trigonometry topics such as angles of elevation and depression along with applying trigonometric relationships in three-dimensional problems.

Recent Challenges

In Year 6 English, Elise often assumes what the question is asking, rather than taking the time to carefully read through, which led to confusion on comprehension worksheets.

She also left homework incomplete several times, with a tutor noting lost lesson time as a result.

In Year 10 Maths, Amelie's "working out was very haphazard" on her worksheets—this made it hard for both her and her tutor to follow multi-step calculations later in revision.

Aymen (Year 11) sometimes relied too heavily on his calculator early in problems, causing errors when units or formats shifted mid-question.

Recent Achievements

One Marrara tutor noticed a big shift in Amelie, a high school student, who now pinpoints her own mistakes during tests and fixes them on the spot—something she was hesitant to do before.

In another session, Elise, also in high school, surprised her tutor by outlining every step aloud of multi-step maths problems, rather than working silently and getting stuck as she had previously.

Meanwhile, Aymen has started breaking down complex problems independently; last week he scored 46 out of 55 on his test after struggling with this approach earlier in the term.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I've not actually met Tevita myself but both Ashleigh and my husband Adam have nothing but good things to say about him.  Ashleigh is very happy with his tutoring so far and seems to have a better understanding of the maths subjects she is doing.

We are very impressed with Jason and Scott enjoys the sessions with him which is great. Thanks.

Tim has now had 3 sessions with Dean and so far it seems to be a positive experience. Tim enjoys his company and understands the way he explains things , I guess this is a good place to start and hopefully it will continue to build into a rewarding learning experience.

English tutoring in Marrara

No one has doubts about the importance of English in the Australian school curriculum. Not only is it a mandatory subject to complete year 12, but it's a useful life skill. Verbal and written language skills are crucial in the information age. Comprehending texts, textual analysis, structuring written reports, refining creative processes and applying a structure to them, articulating thoughts concisely ... these skills are going to be useful in just about any career path. Of course, it all starts in the school classroom.

Maybe your child just needs to catch up to the class or work on some specific weaknesses or get ahead of the class. Whatever your needs, a tailored approach is what works best for most students so that they can as their English tutor questions in a safe, comfortable and non-rushed environment. That's how learning happens, and that is what we facilitate.
