Helping students to learn and progress in a way which suits their learning style and ways of thinking is an important thing tutors can do for students. If an english tutor can adapt to this I believe the student will learn both with more efficiency and more enjoyment. This enjoyment is also of great importance to help students come to a love of…

The utterly most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to listen and understand. To listen to them talk about where they need the extra help and why the believe they do not get the certain material, and to understand how they best learn. I believe that tutoring is beneficial to both parties as I am able to teach my students as…

English Tutor Hobartville, NSW
Tutors can help give students the foundational understanding and confidence needed to independently apply new skills. This can often make students appreciate or even enjoy subjects they may have previously thought were too difficult. I very much understand the importance of being patient and kind when tutoring. I am also a reliable person with a…

Listening to a student's main concerns/goals and having a plan are two of the most important things I believe an english tutor can do for a student. I believe it is crucial to an individual's learning experience if the tutor understands what they are struggling with, in order to come up with a plan that is tailored to their struggle. This is…

One of the most important things an english tutor can do for a student is to give him or her self-confidence. I believe that this is especially important for struggling students.

Inside RichmondTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Sienna practised the split and compensation strategies for addition and subtraction, along with revising multiplication tables up to 12.

In Year 10, Justin focused on analysing film techniques in "Whale Rider" and developing structured paragraphs for his essays using a simplified writing strategy.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Chitleen worked through persuasive essay structures, including crafting strong introductions and body paragraphs about "Follow the Rabbit Proof Fence," while also exploring language and film analysis techniques.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student's homework was frequently incomplete, with a tutor noting, "procrastination meant key practice was missed in maths."

In Year 10 algebra, progress slowed as he often worked through equations very slowly and hesitated to check his steps—extra time was lost retracing calculations.

A senior student struggled with calculator reliance during trigonometry; when the calculator malfunctioned, problem-solving stalled completely.

Meanwhile, in Year 5 English, overcomplicated sentence structures and missing periods made written work hard to follow: "he needs to simplify ideas and use periods correctly," observed one tutor. The result—clarity suffered and feedback couldn't be easily actioned.

Recent Achievements

One Richmond tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who, after weeks of hesitating to ask for help, started raising her hand and seeking clarification on trigonometry problems—something she used to avoid by guessing.

Another win came from a high schooler who'd been struggling with essay structure; he now drafts his introductions independently and applies feedback without needing reminders.

Meanwhile, a younger student who previously took ages to put ideas on paper is now able to express thoughts much faster, finishing story drafts in half the time it once took him.

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