The most important things an english tutor can do for a student is to encourage, support and develop confidence in their ability. It is vitally important to also be patient and understand that not all students learn at the same pace which is the main reason I prefer to teach one-to-one, adapting my lessons to the individual student's needs. I…

Conveying the contents in a simple and understandable way, enhancing a student's self-confidence so that he/she believes himself, since every body has the ability to learn maths and enjoy of learning.So I believe that this can be achieved mostly by an english tutor's contribution. As a result of a long period of experience doing this job, I think…

The goal of tutoring, in some sense, should be to equip students with the skills to no longer need tutoring. I believe this is best achieved by allowing the student to choose study-related goals, and help them take achievable steps in order to get there. As their competence increases in proximity to the larger goal, so too does their confidence as…

Teach them the way that their learning style permits. Just because someone is knowledgeable, it does not mean that they can teach. I can analyse people well by determining their personality and needs. Once I have determined their person, I can adapt my language to communicate with them…

1) Interest in the learning. Personally, I am a lot less likely to learn something with the mindset of "this is boring, let's just complete this lecture/class and be done with it" than more actively engaging. 2) Commitment. Namely, I believe that the tutor needs to care about (and pay attention to) the student's learning. 3) Positive…

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is listen. Is there a way the student feels they learn better? Perhaps through pictures instead of words? Is the student not focussed and extremely tired? Would it be more productive to learn outside in the backyard or reschedule for another day? Students are young, but they are young…

Aside from personally studying the content in greater detail as an english tutor before teaching it to the student, i believe commitment is the most important thing to have as a tutor.

To add, another significant factor is organisation and communication. I believe…

A tutor is there to build confidence, in my opinion.

That is what the best tutors achieved for me, and what I continue to do for my own students today. I think the best tutors,…

The most important things that a tutor can do for a student is to allow their minds to create their own version of knowledge rather than just gaining a pre-existing idea.It's only when we challenge the students to think out of the box that they actually start realising the importance of what was in the box. Giving them a vivid imagination can be a…

I think one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is give them the space to make mistakes and learn on their own. Every student is different, and it is incredibly important for tutors to recognise how a student likes to learn - (visual vs written, memory, attention span, challenged vs small steps, etc.), but however that is,…

Inside Mont Albert NorthTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 9 student Daniel focused on geometry, specifically learning to identify similar triangles by comparing side ratios and angles, as well as distinguishing congruent triangles using side lengths and angle properties.

In Year 5, Anna practised reading comprehension with texts like "Healthy Muscles Matter," answering questions and summarising key ideas.

Meanwhile, Year 4 student Oliver strengthened his grammar skills by exploring contractions and common nouns through sentence exercises.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 English, missing recent classes meant one student faced a test without having covered all required concepts. As a tutor noted, "it's easy to feel overwhelmed with limited prep time," and gaps in content made targeted revision challenging before the assessment.

In Year 5 writing tasks, skipping instructions led to avoidable errors—he would "jump into the exercises prior to reading", which cost time correcting simple mistakes instead of practicing new skills.

For a Year 3 student, incomplete homework built up; when trying to catch up, he struggled to keep pace and became frustrated during review sessions.

Recent Achievements

One Mont Albert North tutor noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student's approach to geometry: after previously needing step-by-step guidance, she now independently spots hidden shapes and applies ratios to similar triangles with just brief prompts.

In a recent Year 8 session, a student who used to second-guess himself on grammar tasks has begun finishing punctuation exercises without hesitation, double-checking his work only once before moving on.

Meanwhile, a primary student surprised his tutor by expanding dot points into sentences during the lesson planning stage—something he'd resisted doing on his own until this week.

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 Balwyn Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Box Hill Senior Secondary College.
