I think one of the most important things an english tutor can do for a student is to actively listen and to be organised with planning lessons. It’s really important to understand exactly what the student requires. This could be done through a pre-assessment at the start of the sessions. The tutor can then take that work home and arrange the…

I think the most important thing an english tutor can do is make the student feel safe to be wrong. So many students disengage from learning because they're afraid of making mistakes or looking unintelligent. Once that fear is removed, real learning can happen. Beyond that, I think a tutor should personalise every session understanding where the…

For me, it is absolutely pertinent for tutors to build a rapport and gain trust from their student, which may encompass many different actions. It may involve giving subject advice from experience, being reassuring and having sound knowledge of the course and content. In doing so, tutors can aid students to develop a genuine interest in the…

Be honest as this helps to establish rapport and trust, the two most critical elements to a successful tutoring relationship. The tutor-student relationship should be viewed as a partnership.

The most important thing an english tutor can do is help the student become **independent in their thinking**. It’s easy to just show solutions, but that creates dependency. A good tutor instead builds the student’s ability to approach problems on their own—how to think, how to break things down, and how to recover when they’re…

Inside GlanvilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Alex practised multiplication and division skills, then worked through identifying points on a graph and using the gradient formula.

For Year 9 Maddison, time was spent discussing her main struggles in maths, reviewing topics like algebra and fractions, and making a plan to improve her note-taking and test feedback.

Meanwhile, Year 10 Ethan focused on problem-solving with trigonometric ratios and began tackling applications involving angles of elevation and depression.

Recent Challenges

In Year 9 mathematics, one student arrived without any class notes and struggled to locate past homework, leading to time lost redoing tasks rather than building new skills. As a tutor observed, "she couldn't find where she answered her homework so a lot of time was spent doing it together."

Meanwhile, in Year 12 calculus, another student relied heavily on mental maths and avoided writing out steps—this caused confusion when handling integrals or remembering which rules to apply.

In a primary spelling lesson, missing word lists meant key sounds (like "ou" in 'house') were not practiced at all that week.

Recent Achievements

One Glanville tutor noticed a Year 10 student, previously hesitant to speak up, now openly asking her teacher for returned quizzes so she can target areas of confusion—something she avoided before.

A high schooler who once rushed through steps is starting to talk aloud as she works, catching errors in real time and logically writing out each stage of her solutions.

Meanwhile, a younger student named Esther brought her homework without reminders this week and achieved her first perfect score on a spelling test after weeks of practice, even remembering tricky vowel sounds from earlier lessons.

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 West Lakes Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Le Fevre Peninsula Primary School.
