English Tutor Bonnells Bay, NSW
Tutors help foreground the development of confidence in what lies within the mind of students that enhances their ability to express thoughts and opinion essential for adult life. A tutor also becomes a trustee of the student, whom insecurities are revealed, and therefore solutions can be found based on the bond created between the two. The…

English Tutor Point Wolstoncroft, NSW
The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to recognise and stimulate wherever possible a personal interset in the subject being taught.

Simone's doing great so far with Ashleigh. Working on consolidating her existing knowledge and filling some gaps left by a poor teacher last year. She's giving Ashleigh some 'homework' at this stage which is useful during this consolidation phase.

Inside Fishing PointTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Claudia worked on adding and subtracting like fractions, as well as multiplying fractions together in maths using visual aids.

For Year 9, Tiffany completed a diagnostic assessment covering key Year 9 maths concepts to pinpoint areas for improvement.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Nina focused on financial mathematics by calculating gross and net pay and practiced applying percentages to real-world salary scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10 financial maths, a student struggled to recall weeks per year and fortnights—this slowed problem-solving as basic calendar facts had to be rechecked each time.

During a Year 9 indices lesson, formulas were repeatedly forgotten; "she kept asking which symbol goes with each step," noted one tutor, so progress on practice questions was limited.

For a Year 5 fraction exercise, untidy working made it difficult for her to track steps or spot errors later.

Meanwhile, a Year 11 student left homework incomplete before sessions, leading to repeated revision of the same concepts rather than moving ahead.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Fishing Point recently noticed Tiffany, a high school student, move from hesitating to ask questions to clearly communicating when she's unsure—she now pauses and asks for clarification instead of pushing ahead silently.

Another secondary student, Aanika, had previously struggled with confidence when tackling new maths concepts but has begun attempting more challenging percentage problems independently after extra practice.

In the primary years, Claudia made a breakthrough by reading times on an analogue clock by herself after needing support for several weeks; last session, she confidently read "6:47" aloud without help.

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 Wangi Library Creative Hub, wanji wanji—or at your child's school (with permission), like Rathmines Public School.
