Helping people understand why learning is important to them. Kids can find it hard to see why what they're learning is important. I think a fundamental key is showing how the process of learning itself is the important aspect, rather than specifically the content. While the content is important to grasp, the process of regular work towards a goal,…

Local Reviews

My daughter had her fist session with Swarali on Saturday and she actually came out of the session smiling. She has a fair few struggles with Maths and after spending one hour with Swarali she was feeling more confident and could understand what Swarali was actually saying. Swarali has a beautiful and kind nature and instantly made Bonnie feel comfortable. I would recommend her with no hesitation. Thank you Swarali!!

Inside YellingboTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Daniel focused on advanced times tables and practiced applying area and perimeter skills, then explored how percentages relate to discounts in everyday scenarios.

In Year 8, Chloe worked through algebraic thinking with a focus on using coordinates and interpreting scale on maps, as well as reviewing equivalent fractions using diagrams for clarity.

Meanwhile, Year 9 student Tahlia concentrated on angle relationships within triangles and lines, then applied fraction operations including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division to problem-solving questions.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 maths, one student hesitated to complete set homework independently—"she understood the assignment when we sat down together but didn't attempt it at home"—which slowed her recall of times tables and made in-class practice less effective.

A senior English student showed strong ideas but struggled to communicate them clearly on paper; "her language was a little too wordy," as noted after an essay draft, leading to sentences that lost impact.

Meanwhile, a Year 10 maths student relied heavily on notes for fraction work, missing connections between changing denominators and numerators during simplification.

Recent Achievements

A Yellingbo tutoring session saw one high school student, Lizzie, shift from simply recalling text details to generating her own nuanced arguments about persuasive techniques—she even started questioning and improving her topic sentences without prompting.

Another secondary student tackled fraction-to-decimal conversions: after initially hesitating, Ella managed to work through long division of fractions and spot recurring decimals on her own.

Meanwhile, a primary student who used to avoid tricky words now sounds them out before asking for help; last week she finished reading a challenging poem aloud with only two quick pauses for correction.

What they say about our tutoring

quote

Tutoring is going well and Nick and Charlie are a great match! Nick has already made a great connection with Charlie.

Minh aka Truc has been fabulous in the short amount of time I have worked with her. She really has given me the confidence I needed to have a better mindset going in to an exam. From the start she was approachable and understanding. I never felt like I was being judged, she was able to answer all my questions with an explanation on how she got the answer.

Joanna is going really well with her tutoring with Paul and she says he is really good!

English tutoring in Yellingbo

Take a few minutes to skim through our testimonials. You'll no doubt feel a sense of surprise. People's experience shows that tutoring does so much more than just boost grades. It changes lives. Like most parents you are probably looking for an English tutor to help your child with some specific goal or challenge. However, with the right tutor, you get so much more. 

Once a student has the experience of progress and accomplishment they learn, and start to internalize, the idea "If I try, I can accomplish". This confidence often results in a performance improvement across all subjects, not just English and starts a student on the cycle of success. It's addictive too! Having a sense of confidence in one's own abilities is so rewarding!
