The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to provide them with that self esteem previously mentioned. I believe if you can empower a student, the sky is the limit.

I believe ensuring that a student truly grasps a new concept is the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student. One common way of proving this is to get the student to explain the new concept back to me. This then gives them confidence to tackle more complex problems.

The most important thing about tutoring is not to be teacher. There is no point of me repeating what the teacher taught, but instead spend time assessing what the student, does not understand about the course which is being learnt. Together with student come to understand of why perhaps this is a difficult thing to grasp and work together to…

Inside TyagarahTutoring Sessions
Content Covered
In primary, tutoring often targets core arithmetic—addition, subtraction, times tables, fractions, and building number sense—while also pushing for deeper comprehension, not just rote rules. High school sessions shift to algebraic thinking, graphing, interpreting questions, and developing strong exam strategies. There’s a big emphasis on breaking down word problems, revisiting tricky homework, and test prep for NAPLAN or semester exams, always tailored to what each student finds hardest right now.
Recent Challenges
Some primary students rush through comprehension or maths tasks without fully reading instructions, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. In high school, it’s common for students to have scattered or unclear working, which makes multi-step problems harder to check and fix. Other frequent hurdles include forgetting materials, leaving homework unfinished, or spending revision time catching up on missed basics instead of moving forward—all of which can hold back progress and lead to confusion.
Recent Achievements
Tutors are noticing students becoming more proactive during lessons—regularly checking their own work, spotting errors, and making corrections without being asked. There’s a clear shift toward students verbalising their steps in maths and explaining their reasoning aloud, rather than rushing through problems. Tutors also report that learners are reviewing their test results with more care and taking the initiative to improve, showing greater confidence and ownership of their progress.
What they say about our tutoring

We are very comfortable with Anne's tutoring of Tim and we think there has been a steady improvement.
Your help is very much appreciated. I'm very happy with Nathan and Mason finds him very supportive. Mason does lack study skills and Nathan has been great in getting Mason focused.
