Modern History Tutor Hobartville, NSW
One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to give him or her self-confidence. I believe that this is especially important for struggling students. A tutor must encourage students and provide them with the tools required for academic success. A student should enjoy tutoring sessions whilst consistently improving during them.…

Inside Agnes BanksTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Luca worked on **decimal and fraction conversions**, as well as comparing fractions using practical examples.

In Year 9, Luke focused on **algebraic equations—specifically moving pronumerals across the equals sign**—and reviewed techniques for simplifying expressions.

Year 12 student Zahraa concentrated on economics essay writing, with a particular focus on **refining arguments about tariffs and quotas** and integrating relevant statistics into her paragraphs.

Recent Challenges

In Year 8 Mathematics, incomplete homework and lack of regular revision led to forgotten formulas—one tutor noted, "he still regularly forgets formulas… and struggles to concentrate throughout a question."

In Year 11 English, an essay was left unfinished until the last minute, which meant key criteria were missed just before the due date.

For a Year 5 creative writing task, William arrived with no prepared work and found it difficult to start sentences or apply grammar rules independently.

Across these grades, distractions or low engagement often meant students spent more time regaining focus than building on prior learning.

Recent Achievements

One Agnes Banks tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to get stuck on creative writing now plans out their story before starting, leading to much more cohesive drafts.

A senior student working on economics essays has shifted from vague answers to specifically targeting key words in questions, after focused sessions on question deconstruction and structuring paragraphs with PETAL—something they struggled with previously.

Meanwhile, a primary school learner who often fidgeted during lessons has started using simple self-moderation techniques suggested by the tutor and can now finish review notes without needing constant reminders.

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 Hobartville Public School.
