The most important thing a tutor can do is to teach in a way suited to the student. The content being taught doesn't matter if the student isn't being perceptive to it, so a tutor must find a way to teach that accommodates for a student and how they prefer to learn.

I believe it would be to clearly identify where the student is lacking and how best to tackle that specific weakness. Then from there take it one step at a time till the student is comfortable enough to increase the pace. The key is to subtly increase the pace such that they wont notice or get overwhelmed. Given my education and occupation, I have…

Jennifer has been amazing. Lily will miss her weekly sessions - she has learned a lot because of Jennifers quietly persistent style.
Corinne, Thornlie

Inside ThornlieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Claudia practised calculating the area of composite shapes and converting between units of time.

Year 10 student Jasmine worked on algebraic factorisation as well as expanding brackets, using a worksheet for extra practice.

Meanwhile, Maha in Year 11 focused on arithmetic and geometric sequences, tackling problems that required identifying patterns and finding specific terms within those sequences.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student hesitated to attempt the non-calculator section in maths, with "a bit scared of it" noted during probability questions—this lack of confidence led to slower progress and less risk-taking.

In Year 10, one student repeatedly missed key details when reading through test questions, which resulted in misinterpreting problems on population samples and probability tables.

For a Year 4 learner, reliance on a multiplication chart instead of having times tables memorised meant more time was spent looking up answers than practicing new concepts.

In algebra assignments, skipping careful setup sometimes caused both sides not to balance.

Recent Achievements

A Thornlie tutor noticed a real shift with Jasmine in Year 10—she's started spotting her own mistakes during practice tests, catching errors before they're pointed out, which is a big change from when she'd rush through and overlook them.

Claudia, in Year 11, now comes to sessions ready to tell the tutor exactly where she feels stuck and reminds them of her gaps as they work; last term, she'd stay quiet even when confused.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student recently managed long division mostly alone for the first time after weeks needing step-by-step help.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Thank you for your email received today. I am very pleased to report that we are very impressed with Minh and his approach to tutoring our son. Minh is a very responsible and passionate teacher, we feel his enthusiasm will promote Elijah-Taye to the required level in a reasonable time frame.

Thank you for your follow up.  Ty is progressing well and we are all happy with the way things are going (mum, dad and Ty).  Apart from the normal issues, that sometimes he just 'doesn't feel like it' at the beginning of the session, he enjoys the tutoring and is gaining benefits already.  Though Ty has always had quite a good understanding of Maths, the idea of tutoring was to keep him at his best.  He was complaining of not understanding his teacher this year, so the different ways of thinking and and ways of teaching are definitely helping. I am happy with Sheetal and his dedication to his tutoring, even ringing Ty to check his progress before an assessment.  This is not something that I was expecting, but is a welcome addition as I see it helping Ty keep focused as well.

Thanks for the email. We are very happy with Lisa. She is bright and keen and has established a very easy rapport with Xiao. Xiao actually really likes her. We feel very confident that Xiao will continue to make progress with her maths.

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 Thornlie Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Australian Islamic College (Thornlie).
