To work with a happy and motivated student allows to improve and learn in a better way. That's why a good feeling with the child is very important. Making her/his problem as mine, I can reach a full engagement with her/him. The tutor must also show security, respect, motivation and passion. I can improve her/his skills for study in order to…

I believe ultimately, the most important thing a tutor can do is to create an environment where when asked "Do you understand?", the student feels free to say "Nope". This honesty is priceless and very helpful in identifying knowledge-gaps early. I pride myself on being patient. I was a slow learner, and often had questions which were ignored or…

Aside from the obvious answer of teaching the student the content he/she is having trouble with, I think there are things the tutor can do that can continue to benefit the student long after lessons have ended. Things like good study habits, problem solving skills and good communication are virtues that can be picked up from a tutor and can be…

The tutor should identify the student learning style and try to improve it. They should teach students how to become independent learners. Also, the tutor should enhance the students' self-esteem and self-confidence so that the students believe in their learning abilities.

It’s essential to break down complex concepts into manageable parts and explain them in a way that makes sense to the student. Using analogies, visual aids, and real-world examples can be very effective. Establishing a supportive and non-judgmental atmosphere where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes is vital for…

As stated in my strengths, taking the time to understand how the student learns. Throwing solutions at someone won't help if you do not provide an explanation they can understand.

I believe we as tutors need to understand the student's situation, why they are stuck in a problem or why are they particularly struggling with a topic. Only then, we can try to help them grow and improve step by step along the way. Although I might not have that much experience teaching in a formal tutoring session, I hope I could make students…

A tutor can help the student recognise the pattern of solutions for different problems.

Optimism. Students need positivity and confidence above all else.

Improving a student's perception of the subject, from a hated monster, to an enjoyable and curious endeavour, is a critical and often undervalued element of tutoring. It is crucial that the student walks away from the lesson with a real-world understanding of how what is taught is important to society and our understanding of the universe. Lastly,…

Zane is finally grasping concepts that he always found confusing in class. Alan has been very patient with Zane, as there is quite a bit of work to do. Zane would not have received this personal time in class, due to time, disruptions etc.. Thank goodness we are starting now before NAPLAN in 2 weeks and highschool in 2019.

Inside South CoogeeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Isla worked on fractions and telling time using Mathletics activities, with extra practice on word problems.

Year 10 student Dharsshen tackled a challenging essay question focused on structuring arguments and refining thesis statements, as well as reviewing his completed essay for clarity and coherence.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Amira prepared for her HSC English exam by revising thesis development and practicing short-answer responses worth 20 marks to strengthen analytical skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 English student, under pressure from school commitments, began "rushing his work," which led to persistent errors in grammar and punctuation.

In creative writing for Year 8, a reluctance to add detail meant stories lacked vivid description—one tutor observed missing commas where new sentences should have started, making the writing harder to follow.

A Year 5 student struggled with homework page formatting; unclear layouts made it difficult to identify main points or corrections.

In poetry revision for Year 10, another avoided reviewing unfamiliar texts, risking gaps in exam readiness by focusing only on preferred material.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in South Coogee noticed that a Year 10 student, Dharsshen, who used to struggle with structuring essays, now independently spots argument flaws and recently incorporated teacher feedback for the first time.

In Year 11 English, Mohit moved from vague thesis statements to writing a much stronger argument and even achieved a notable 16/20 on an essay—he previously lost more marks due to unclear structure.

Meanwhile, Miyah (Year 4) shifted from guessing answers in maths to using pen-and-paper strategies and talking through her process out loud until she found the right solution herself.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I have got to say that Miles is absolutely perfect. Besides being prompt and all that, his explanations are so good that Roland shares them with his school friends to enable them to understand tricky concepts in class. They inevitably will say “Oh, I understand now!” He is making Maths Methods manageable.

So far we are very happy with our classes I am sure as we progress jacob will start to see the improvements

Jillian is a wonderful, dedicated and reliable tutor A grade. Thank you Jillian

Local Spots for Tutoring
