English Tutor Gisborne, VIC
- Provide them respect and allow them to feel welcome to ask any question they have in mind. - I think it is important that the student never feels overwhelmed. I find being overwhelmed only leads to greater stress therefore I would like to ensure that the student would feel comfortable with what they are learning. I think I am a good listener,…

Inside New GisborneTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Oliver worked on solving simultaneous linear and quadratic equations as well as exploring families of quadratic polynomial functions, including using substitution methods.

Year 10 student Mia revised trigonometric functions by graphing y = sin(x) and y = cos(x), and also tackled transformations such as translations and dilations on these graphs.

For a Year 11 student, recent lessons included applying the rules of combinations and factorials to probability questions, along with an introduction to advanced counting methods for problem-solving.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student repeatedly relied on the CAS calculator for algebraic manipulation, especially when rationalising denominators and applying index laws; as a tutor noted, "needs to be less reliant on calculator." This habit slowed down progress with more advanced problems where conceptual understanding was required.

Meanwhile, a Year 9 student spent excessive time on straightforward simultaneous equations instead of moving onto harder examples or simulating test conditions. The focus remained on repetition of easy material rather than targeted revision of challenging content, which meant less practice tackling unfamiliar questions under time pressure.

Recent Achievements

One New Gisborne tutor noted a Year 10 student who had previously struggled to distinguish between average and instantaneous rates of change, but now confidently explains the difference and identifies tangent versus normal lines without prompting.

A Year 11 learner who used to avoid worded problems with simultaneous equations now tackles them using substitution, working through solutions more independently than in past weeks.

In a primary session, a younger student who often hesitated when reading aloud chose to read an entire chapter by themselves for the first time, finishing with only one self-correction.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Rick is the perfect tutor for Emily. She likes ths way he explains maths and gives her useful tips to help remember things. Emily is very happy and is starting to gain the confidence that she can improve her maths.

We are really happy with Nimesh. He has been so accommodating and is a great tutor - Mia is getting a huge amount out of the lessons.

Wanted to take this opportunity to say how great Jeremy is! My daughter was incredibly nervous about having a male tutor but after the first session and moving forward, she feels completely comfortable, at ease and really enjoys her tutoring sessions with Jeremy. He has a very positive attitude and is very kind and encouraging towards Maycee's learning journey and for that we thank you all.... especially Jeremy!

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 Gisborne Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like New Gisborne Primary School.
