I think there are a couple of important things an english tutor can do for their student. The first is being a patient person who is going to push them to do the best they can, not rush them through their work. The second is being someone the student feels comfortable making mistakes in front of as mistakes are one of the most important parts to…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is ensure the tutor works towards the students strengths and attempts to minimise their weaknesses.

The most important thing an english tutor can do for students is to help them develop a strong understanding of the concepts they are studying.

Be patient with them. Prepare, no matter how good you are at a topic you must always prepare for your lessons. Understand the topic you are teaching.

It is crucial an english tutor creates a comfortable space for students to ask questions and express concerns. This is because tutors must understand their students problems and thus solve them. Tutors must also maintain a student's confidence as this can enhance their attitude towards studying and therefore drive the importance of school and hard…

To me, an english tutor is someone that can not only prepare a student in the classroom but to prepare them for life. Learning skills allow for the child to develop their own interests and pursue them further beyond the idea of exams and tests. I hope that my valuable skills allow for students to become high achievers, both in the academic…

A tutor or at least a teacher is someone who can give students a helping hand, perhaps a friend is too informal but someone they can relate to. I think being able to understand your student and what makes them improve or how they can improve is also essential as an english tutor and a teacher. It is useless to spoon feed facts and knowledge to a…

Inside YarrawarrahTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Ethan revised double-digit multiplication and worked on multi-step division problems, using visual methods to break down each question.

In Year 8, Olivia tackled algebraic techniques and explored surd and indices through targeted practice questions from her classwork.

For Year 11, Sarah focused on Financial Maths concepts and practiced Network Concepts by completing past HSC-style questions to consolidate her understanding of the terminology.

Recent Challenges

In Year 3 mathematics, distraction during subtraction tasks—especially with multi-digit numbers—meant steps were sometimes skipped or the order of numbers was mixed up. "She got distracted a bit but was mostly good," noted one tutor after a session on subtracting hundreds.

For a Year 10 student, revision before exams relied heavily on tutor prompts; planning for essay writing wasn't always followed, and there was hesitance to independently select questions to practice.

In senior science (Year 12), incomplete homework occasionally limited targeted feedback, making it harder to pinpoint misunderstandings in topics like plant cell functions or simultaneous equations.

Recent Achievements

A Yarrawarrah tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to stay quiet when confused—now she openly asks for clarification on tricky chemistry concepts, especially around periodic trends, instead of letting misunderstandings pile up.

In Year 7 maths, one student who previously rushed through word problems started pausing to think them through and now successfully identifies the key steps herself before solving.

Meanwhile, a Year 12 student recently recognised her past exam mistakes in biology and independently corrected her approach using specific feedback from the last session.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Patrick is such a wonderful young man and he and Reece really work well together! I have also engaged your business for my daughter also.

Yes , I am very pleased with Ed. Early days and my daughter has been a little reticent and awkward about having a tutor however I am going to make her stick it out . I however, am  very pleased with Ed and his approach with Olivia Look forward to seeing some results in the near future

I'm very happy with the progress that Abbey is making with Isabel, Isabel had lost most of her confidence in her ability to do her school work. Abbey's positive approach to Isabel's work is starting to reflect on Isabel.

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 Engadine Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Yarrawarrah Public School.
