Be present and engaged in each lesson and ensure they thoroughly understand each topic before moving on. I would say my main strengths are patience and communication. When it comes to breaking down questions, it helps to work through things slowly and ensure understanding at each…

English Tutor Saratoga, NSW
I think the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to make them feel proud and confident with themselves as well as being a supportive teacher. I know from experience that when you're struggling with a concept it is a very disheartening thing and can lead to self doubt and giving up. I think a tutor should help a student…

Implement creativity and a willingness to try is the most important skill an english tutor can pass on to their students. Once a student builds a willingness to try and a need to challenge themselves, they will be more likely to build good habits and routines around creating these pathways for themselves. I always ask myself 'how do students…

I think the most important thing is approaching learning with compassion and patience. It is really important to consider that not everyone learns best with the same teaching style, and can process information at different paces. I think it's important to understand each person's learning style; if they are not understanding what you are saying,…

As an english tutor/educator the most important factor to foster with your student is that you are honest and patient. Each student develops at their own pace. My strengths include: *I have found that working with special needs students has helped me to become a more compassionate and patient educator. *My ability to review my own methods if…

English Tutor Woy Woy Bay, NSW
A tutors responsibility isn't to provide answers, but to guide students to find their way of learning and to provide alternative approaches when tackling problem scenarios or questions. To be a successful tutor is to develop students mindsets and enable them to eventually trust in their instinct and decide for themselves the best way to go about a…

The most important thing for an english tutor to incorporate into their lessons is personalisation. Tailoring the lesson or what they are teaching to best aid the student in areas of weakness. This personalised content will resonate most with the student and also make the lessons more engaging. My strengths as a tutor are my speaking skills. I…

I believe the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is learning to adapt. Each students brain is wired completely different, and in school, there’s not always an opportunity to work one on one. So it’s crucial for a tutor to observe their students strengths and weaknesses, and use that to progress their learning. I am…

English Tutor Daleys Point, NSW
Provide support both academically and mentally. This can be done through practicing a topic of a subject, and also helping schedule their weeks, so they know they will still have social/leisure time, and maximize their grades and themselves. I am incredibly confident and happy to also learn new things. For example, if a student comes to me and…

I believe the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is show genuine care for the student's learning. Additionally, having a passion for teaching is vital, because with no passion and care, the tutoring interactions with the student are inauthentic. My greatest strength as a tutor is being able to change the way I explain a…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to give them the ability to take what they learn in the classroom outside of school. By teaching students the skills as well as the content, students will have the freedom to further pursue their interests. A passion for the subject material, the patience and communication skills…

I have a genuine passion for mathematics and…

Shobana has been great with my son Mathew. She breaks down complex problems into easy manageable chunks of information that he can understand. She is very clear and concise in her explanations. He is a lot happier in Maths. Thank you

Inside TascottTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Yillen focused on Pythagoras' Theorem—using the formula to solve right-angled triangle problems and then applying these skills to real-life contexts, as well as revising perimeter and area with exam-style questions.

Meanwhile, Year 9 Chloe worked through algebraic expressions involving indices and fractions, along with dividing fractions, using step-by-step breakdowns for tricky examples.

For a younger learner in Year 6, Arielle tackled surface area and volume of composite shapes while also practicing calculation of perimeters during targeted test revision sessions.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student arrived 12 minutes late and remained unfocused, needing "almost 80% of the answers" to stay engaged—his calculator was also missing, which stalled progress on Pi-based questions.

In a recent Year 11 session, forgetting both notes and workbook before an exam left him with no revision guide; distraction took over as he tried to recall details.

For a younger student, reluctance to submit written work for feedback during spelling practice meant missed opportunities for improvement ("to get more written material from the student if wanting feedback on it"). These moments slowed growth and left gaps unaddressed.

Recent Achievements

A Tascott tutor recently noticed a big shift in one Year 10 student who, after often waiting for answers to be explained, began tackling algebra problems on his own and even started asking for more challenging homework.

Another high schooler moved from feeling unsure about Pythagoras' Theorem to confidently working through foundation problems by the end of the session.

Among younger students, Chloe (Year 5) showed new initiative by double-checking her work independently rather than just following along—she now spots errors herself before the tutor points them out.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

I just wanted to let you know how very happy we are with Tianna's tutor, Josephine. Josephine is so bubbly, easy going, very patient and great at teaching Maths and making it fun to learn.   Tianna is quite taken with Josephine, has built a great rapport with her and has made huge progress with her algebra in the short while Josephine has been tutoring her. Josephine is definitely a great asset to your company and we are so happy she is Tianna's tutor

Compliments on the nice touch with the follow up. It comes across as very professional. In fact the whole process from my initial inquiry about getting some help for Jake, through to now has been very professional, informative and direct. Yes, things have been progressing well between Jake and his tutor. They formed a good rapport straight off the bat. Jake has made comment of his own free will how he is enjoying the support. That in itself is something - getting more than a grunt from a 16 yr old!

Tilly has been doing very well at school with her maths - she received an A on her report. She says she is far more confident. Thank you so much for providing us with an excellent tutor in Christy - it would be my pleasure to provide a reference any time. It has made a significant difference to our daughter's confidence.

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