English Tutor Hamlyn Terrace, NSW
I believe the most important thing is to have a routine, be reliable, and to have the student be a part of every decision in their learning. My time with a student is not about a test or exam. It is about creating the skills for a student to be able to improve as they move through school and beyond. This is something that is going to be…

The most important thing an english tutor could do is create a safe environment for the student. Learning can be more comprehensive and explicit once the student is comfortable around their tutor’s presence. The tutor also must maintain and adhere to an elaborate study plan to help the student. I am very patient and would never snap even on…

The most important thing you can do for a student (other than teaching them the things they are struggling with) is letting them know they aren't as "stupid" as they may feel. So many students enter tutoring frustrated, upset and not wanting to be there because they believe that they are "stupider" or "dumber" than their friends because "well my…

Support and patience. Trying to force too many things at once can only frustrate somebody attempting to better themselves, following a pace the student is best learning at is crucial. Frustration and not grasping an idea or a concept can lead to giving up, which is why support and again patience are key. I'm reliable, patient and easy to talk to.…

Understanding each student's unique learning style, strengths, weaknesses, and preferences is essential to maximising their learning potential. Furthermore, encouraging and fostering a…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to understand the needs of their student and develop effective resources that work for THAT student. It is also important to recognise what kind of work load people are capable of handling so that you do not overwhelm them with tasks, as this would be counterproductive. So I guess,…

Local Reviews

Shireen has been a great tutor for our son over the last two years. He started working with her when he was struggling with math concepts in year 8 and has gone on to be one of the top students in his class. He has also picked up learning skills and now is confident enough to learn on his own. I would highly recommend Shireen.

Inside Hamlyn TerraceTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Daniel worked on reading and writing Roman numerals up to 50 and practiced addition using these numerals.

For Year 8, Chloe focused on graphing linear and non-linear equations as well as solving problems related to the volume of prisms.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Liam tackled trigonometry topics including calculating unknown sides using ratios and reviewed a recent trigonometry test to clarify misunderstandings.

Recent Challenges

A Year 9 student worked through parabolic graph questions but, as one tutor observed, "he skipped showing steps with brackets and signs," which led to confusion when negatives appeared—this habit masked errors that weren't caught until review.

In Year 11 algebra, another student was pressed for time during inequalities and didn't complete all problems, so gaps in simultaneous equations were left unresolved.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner avoided writing out working for times tables ("I know it in my head"), but then struggled with recall under pressure—leading to hesitation when the pace picked up.

Recent Achievements

In Year 9, Josh had struggled with algebraic substitution, but by working through simultaneous equations step by step, he began solving them independently and even explained his process out loud—something he'd hesitated to do before.

Another high school student moved from guessing at ratios to confidently breaking down problems involving three values and checking her work for errors on her own.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to avoid word problems now eagerly tackles simple addition and subtraction stories without prompting and volunteers to read questions aloud each session.

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 Lake Haven Library & Council Services—or at your child's school (with permission), like Warnervale Public School.
