English Tutor Lauderdale, TAS
Being patient, considerate and to also understand why the student may be struggling and find ways to help them based on their needs, rather than what worked for the tutor. My patience is a big one, I have pretty good patience and also my ability to problem solve in any situation, breaking down the question and then finding…

Ensure they meet there every need and ensure a student is enjoying their learning, because if there not enjoying they won’t do well. Being polite and patient with students is crucial as it may take a while for them to understand but encouraging them and having their back will bring out their confidence and it will show in their results aswell.…

English Tutor Hobart, TAS
I believe the most important things an english tutor can do for a student are to create a safe and encouraging learning environment, build the student’s confidence, and help them develop independent learning skills. Beyond explaining content, a tutor should listen carefully, be patient, and adapt their teaching to the student’s needs. By doing…

I think a successful tutor encourages a love of learning and can motivate a student to continue beyond initial challenges. I can explain things clearly. I also believe I am good at setting people at ease - I'm approachable, and I know what it's like to be the shy…

Inside TranmereTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Scarlett practised identifying independent and dependent clauses, improved her use of pronoun references in writing, and worked on creative tasks like drafting memoirs and biographies using structured planning.

In Year 11 Chemistry, Aimee revised stoichiometry with a focus on mole-mass conversions, balanced equations, and also tackled organic chemistry concepts through practice exam questions.

Year 12 Biology student Charli reviewed the adaptive immune system by applying her understanding to targeted multiple choice and short answer questions, while also revising evolution topics using class notes and exam-style problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 Chemistry student, when faced with analytical questions on equilibrium and fuel cells, often became overwhelmed by detail—she overcomplicates the question, as one tutor observed—leading to missed marks when she didn't break problems into smaller steps or refer back to equations.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 English learner hesitated to launch into writing tasks, stalling out of fear that her first draft wouldn't be perfect; this left her great ideas trapped in dot points instead of becoming a polished story.

For both, avoidance of feedback or rushing through reading meant repeated misunderstandings and lost confidence mid-task.

Recent Achievements

One Tranmere tutoring session saw a high school student, Aimee, tackle new chemistry questions ahead of her class and openly ask for help when she hit roadblocks—a real shift from her earlier tendency to wait for guidance.

Another tutor noted Charli's improvement in biology: after previously hesitating to participate, she now highlights topics she finds difficult and asks targeted questions to deepen her understanding.

Meanwhile, Cameron (Year 7) wrote a creative short story with enthusiasm and, for the first time, accepted feedback on grammar and punctuation without frustration, revising their work independently before reading it aloud.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

thanks for your enquiry.  Isabella is enjoying her time with Manisha and the topics they are covering are all starting to sink in.  Isabella likes they way Manisha explains things to her and feels comfortable in asking questions. Manisha seems like a very capable person and I like her professional manner in all things.  At end of each lesson, she runs through with me what has been covered and leaves Isabella with some tips and exercises to go over during the week. I am pleased with how things are progressing and will continue until Isabella feels like she is at a place where she no longer requires assistance.

Yes, we have been very happy with how Cheyne and Juhi are getting along. Cheyne is feeling more confident about tackling her maths now and quite looks forward to her sessions with Juhi.

The tutoring is going really well. Jimmy is a great person and really good at tutoring. My son is really happy and comfortable with Jimmy. We are not taking a break over the holidays, so Jimmy is back on Wed night. Jimmy is really helping him understand his maths. Thank you for everything.

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 State Library of Tasmania—or at your child's school (with permission), like Rokeby Primary School.
