The single most important thing that an english tutor can do for a student is to help them build confidence in their own abilities to learn and overcome challenges. By helping grow and nurture this sense of confidence, a tutor can give a student the tools that they need to learn not only the subject they are working on, but also other subjects and…

I think that some tutors get caught up in focusing solely on the work in front of them and miss out on teaching younger students about the life in front of them. Instead of doing more work, tutors should provide organisation tips and possible strategies they can put in place to improve the quality of their work. Also, forming close relationships…

I believe a tutor should foster a positive learning environment for a student, in which the student feels comfortable discussing any issues they are having with the tutor. I feel that as a tutor, your core responsibility is to place the needs of the child first, and do whatever you can to fulfill these needs, even if it does involve putting in…

Inside OakbankTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sophie practised short multiplication and division strategies, then explored equivalent fractions and how to simplify them using visual examples.

In Year 9, Liam worked on solving right-angled triangle problems with SOH CAH TOA and applied Pythagoras' theorem to composite shapes.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex focused on algebraic factorisation of polynomials and reviewed graphing linear equations, linking these skills to upcoming class assessments.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 student often jumped straight to answers in algebra and trigonometry, skipping the step of writing out known information—"he tends to try to jump to the answer immediately without considering the steps," noted a tutor. This habit made it hard for him to spot errors or adapt when questions changed slightly in tests.

Meanwhile, a Year 8 student struggled with showing reasoning on geometry problems; she knew the method but hesitated to write explanations, leading to missed marks on multistep tasks.

In both cases, important connections and clarity were lost when working wasn't clearly set out.

Recent Achievements

One Oakbank tutor noticed a Year 11 student who, after struggling with complex algebraic questions last week, managed to break down challenging problems on his own and now works through test-style questions with noticeably more speed and accuracy.

In another high school session, a student independently solved a derivation problem using only textbook guidance—just weeks prior he'd hesitated to try without step-by-step help. This time, he showed independent problem-solving skills.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who previously guessed at times tables now confidently uses strategies like finger-counting and checks her answers herself; last lesson she filled out several rows of the chart without prompting.

English tutoring in Oakbank

Is your child preparing for an exam? Naplan? Final grade 12 exams? Are they just trying to keep up with the class? Do they have specific challenges with some topics? Or do they have specific weaknesses such as exam technique or making constant "silly mistakes"?

The value in a one-on-one private English tutor is that they can focus entirely on your child and organise lessons around their specific goals and challenges. With the right support mechanisms every student can succeed. And ... that success is often life-changing for students, it serves as undeniable proof that if they apply themselves they can achieve success where they previously failed. It's just about the best lesson a young person can learn.
