The most important thing an english tutor can do is to enable a student with essential skills, both related to subject taught, as well as life skills. In this way, the student can go on to become an independent learner. My strengths are in being able to put myself in the child's shoes and explain the way he/she wants it. My weakness is that I…

English Tutor Kangaroo Point, NSW
A tutor or at least a teacher is someone who can give students a helping hand, perhaps a friend is too informal but someone they can relate to. I think being able to understand your student and what makes them improve or how they can improve is also essential as an english tutor and a teacher. It is useless to spoon feed facts and knowledge to a…

This not only allows for the student to understand concepts in other ways but also ensures and improves self esteem as often, students may fall behind…

Inside Taren PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Diyian focused on multiplication, long division, and working with fractions and decimals.

For Year 8, Hayley tackled trigonometry by solving problems involving sine, cosine, and tangent as well as applying these functions to worded scenarios.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Jay revised balancing chemical equations and calculated moles and molar mass in chemistry using worked examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student struggled to keep up with homework and often did not review content between lessons, leading to repeated time spent re-covering algebra basics. As one tutor noted, "I end up having to spend the next week covering what I went through the previous week."

In Year 11, a student avoided working on unfamiliar HSC topics independently and only practiced material already covered in lessons, leaving gaps before exams.

Meanwhile, a Year 5 learner regularly forgot class materials and left written work incomplete or messy during subtraction tasks, making it hard to spot calculation errors until much later.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Taren Point noticed that a Year 11 student, after weeks of hesitating to ask questions, now openly seeks clarification when tackling tough HSC revision tasks—she even started making her own topic notes to check formulas.

In Year 10 chemistry, one student finally cracked titration calculations independently after struggling with the steps for several sessions.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once guessed at spelling now takes time to sound out words and self-corrects without prompting; last session he caught two mistakes on his own before moving on.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Sahm has been an excellent teacher and we are very happy as to the way he works with our daughter.

Connor is really enjoying the sessions with James and finds him very helpful. He says James can explain things very clearly and is helping him get through his work and study more efficiently. He has a maths exam this week and is feeling more confident already.

Laoise has been really happy working with Jennifer and we're very pleased with how it's all been going and look forward to working more with her when the new school term resumes.

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 Sylvania Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Taren Point Public School.
