English Tutor Monash, ACT
I think the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to listen. It is important for a tutor to build a relationship with the students so that tutoring sessions don't become a chore, and the student feels comfortable seeking help with things in these sessions. Thus, I think that listening to and responding to the needs of the…

English Tutor Mawson, ACT
I understand the struggles of high school students - the anxiety of asking questions and the lack motivation to learn. A tutor should be able to create a safe space for communication to tackle problems and provide useful solutions to such issues. Also, an important characteristic an english tutor should have is to help motivate students with a…

Help them gain confidence in themselves and uplifting them in the process. To do this I think its important to ensure the student is still self sufficient (not just given the answers). During my studies I balanced full time work and full time university, this taught me to have excellent time management skills and really appreciate the value of…

The best thing an english tutor can do is lay a foundation so strong that the student understands it very well and never giving up on them. It is to understand that every student is special. I am patient and easygoing person and I think I can handle a number of students simultaneously. Moreover, my experience in tutoring students and also studying…

Inside TraleeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Sarah worked on solving simultaneous equations using substitution and practiced expanding and factorising binomials.

For Year 10, Alex focused on quadratic equations, applying both the quadratic formula and factorisation methods to solve problems.

Meanwhile, Year 5 student Emily reinforced her understanding of simplifying fractions and converting them into decimals through step-by-step examples.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student arrived at a session without having completed any independent exam revision since the last lesson; "Jay hadn't done any extra revision for her exam," as noted.

In Year 11, another student struggled to identify which topics to review before sessions, leading to time lost on basic planning rather than tackling advanced content.

A Year 8 learner's unfinished homework in linear equations left errors hidden until worked through together—missed steps masked deeper misunderstandings.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 child often sought reassurance after each answer instead of attempting questions independently, which slowed progress and reduced confidence during mental maths practice.

Recent Achievements

One Tralee tutor noticed a Year 11 student who, after weeks of hesitating to ask for clarification, confidently spoke up when simultaneous equations didn't make sense and worked through them until the process clicked.

Another high schooler had previously struggled with quadratic graphs but was able to explain how changing variables affected their shape, even drawing examples from memory during the session.

In primary years, one student who used to rely on counting fingers tackled complicated addition without any prompts or finger-counting—she completed all problems in record time and checked her own answers before moving on.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

We are very happy with AiPing, she works the boys hard and seems to be very knowledgeable.

So far we are extremely happy with Sarah. As you said, it is very early days, but so far so good. Mackenzie is very comfortable with her and feeling very positive about having Sarah as his new tutor. She is always punctual and friendly. And she has taken on some extra sessions with Mack over the school holidays which has been very helpful. I look forward to getting a couple of months tutoring under our belt to hopefully see some progress.

Thank you for your email.  Things are going well with the tutoring and Christian is a capable young man, as you say it will take time to see an improvement. Hopefully after that time, Kimberley will be feeling more confident.

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 Erindale Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Gilmore Primary School.
