English Tutor Darwin, NT
I feel the most important thing that an english tutor can do is to listen to the students as they explain what they don't understand and to help fully explain the solution of the problem to the student and to verify that the students understands the new concepts. I am patient with the students and I can work through many examples with the student…

English Tutor Jingili, NT
One of the most important things an english tutor can do is understand a students potential and pushing them to do to their best. I think I would be a good strict tutor who would push people to do their best. To me, the best tutoring style is one that caters to the specific student in their best learning…

Amelie

English Tutor Wagaman, NT
A tutor should be patient and never say something is easy. They should always encourage and find ways to explain something step-by-step such that everything is explained and can be linked back to a central idea. I am patient, friendly, and I can see and understand why something can be difficult to understand. I encourage and can relate to finding…

English Tutor Casuarina, NT
From my experience with tutors, I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student are. Recognising someone's improvements, recalling how a student has overcome a challenge in the past can be a great motivator for the present as well as build self-confidence. Being a role model, students will be influenced by a tutor's method of…

Inside WinnellieTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Elise focused on adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators, as well as converting mixed numbers to improper fractions using targeted worksheets.

Year 8 student Amelie worked through solving simultaneous linear equations and explored parallel and perpendicular lines, applying these concepts to graph-based problems.

For Year 9, Michael reviewed algebra skills by checking previous test questions he found challenging and practiced writing algebraic expressions from worded problems for extra reinforcement.

Recent Challenges

In Year 6 English, one student frequently assumed what a question was asking without reading it carefully, leading to incomplete or off-target answers. As noted: "she continues to do this, despite my constant insistence that she read all text on the worksheet."

In Year 10 Maths, another student's written work was described as "very haphazard," making revision and error-checking difficult; untidy calculations meant both tutor and student struggled to follow her reasoning.

Missed homework was also an issue for this Year 10 learner—she did not complete assigned revision notes, leaving gaps in understanding quadratic equations before assessments.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Winnellie noted that Elise, a Year 7 student who once hesitated to speak up when stuck, is now comfortable explaining her problem-solving steps out loud before working through multi-step maths questions.

In recent sessions with Amelie, a high schooler, she showed real initiative by identifying her own errors during test review and independently correcting them—something she'd previously avoided.

Meanwhile, Noah (Year 6) moved from confusion about fraction conversions to confidently simplifying and switching between forms without prompting.

Last week, Amelie wrapped up her lesson by plotting hyperbolas on her own for the first time.

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 Karama Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Ludmilla Primary School.
