English Tutor Russell Vale, NSW
One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is provide a deep understanding of the material being studied, and to explain it in such a way that the student remembers and understands. A good tutor must be able to tailor their approach to best help each student and facilitate a positive learning environment. The strengths I will…

English Tutor Russell Vale, NSW
I think a tutor should provide a fun, engaging and different approach to studying. A tutor should ask questions in a way a teacher hasn't got the time to do. They should always ask what the student wants and implement strategies as to how to attain these goals. But, perhaps at the forefront of responsibility, a tutor should always make sure the…

I think close support and motivation especially during their examinations is crucial. Making the student sharp by regular homework/assignments and making them fall in love with the subject and eventually learning are very important in my opinion. Identifying students strengths/passion and grooming them is another very imperative factor. I think…

English Tutor Gwynneville, NSW
Teach and help them learn by listening to what it is that they need help with. Each student is different so developing an individual way with each one is very important as a tutor. Honesty, if something is wrong with something I can tell a student how to fix it straight away. Another strength of mine is teaching someone how to do something rather…

English Tutor Gwynneville, NSW
Assist in enabling students to reach their goals. Create a learning environment where the student feels comfortable to be themselves, make mistakes, take chances, be creative and therefore, grow. My strengths would include being patient, intuitive and empathetic with students. I generally speak succinctly and try not to overload the student with…

English Tutor Wollongong, NSW
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be there for them, both through aid in academic studies and through personal encouragement. A tutor needs to make sure the student feels safe and understood, seen and heard. Therefore, I believe a tutor needs to just have faith in their students. That is the best and most important thing a…

English Tutor Wollongong, NSW
Listen to them, let them teach you about themselves, let them have a go and try things and trial and error. No matter how many times they get it wrong they will always learn more by putting the effort in rather than just being given the answer. Also find out what techniques help them learn best, some students can pick up things in different ways…

Local Reviews

From the moment Jess walked in the door she was engaging and warm. My daughter took to Jess straight away and the teaching methods were at my daughter's pace and gave her confidence in maths again. I'm glad I made the decision to use a tutor at this crucial at the start of high school. I'm already impressed by Jess' professionalism and successful teaching methods.

Inside KeiravilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Mia focused on coordinate geometry for an upcoming assessment, working through challenge questions and applying trigonometric relations like solving for sin(x) and cos(x).

Year 10 student Alex revised logarithms by evaluating expressions using log laws and properties, then tackled trigonometry with complementary angles.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Sam addressed network and critical path analysis in preparation for assessments, breaking down project scheduling problems into clear steps.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, a student relied heavily on calculators during algebraic simplification—"maybe a little less reliance on the calculator for some of them"—which masked gaps in formula recall and slowed independent problem-solving.

A Year 8 learner struggled to organise working out neatly when tackling worded questions; copying negative signs incorrectly led to small but recurring errors.

In Year 5 maths, another student's difficulty reading analog clocks and handling time differences showed up when trying to track daily events.

For one senior student, inconsistent back-checking on worded problems resulted in missed marks even on familiar content, leaving her frustrated after reviewing corrections together.

Recent Achievements

One Keiraville tutor recently noticed a big shift in a Year 10 student's approach to trigonometry: after initially relying heavily on prompts, he began clarifying confusions himself and consistently identified solution steps for trig questions without needing guidance.

In Year 8, another student who'd previously struggled with adding fractions was able to solve problems involving multiple fractions—something that had been a sticking point before—and moved on to confidently tackling BIDMAS questions after some revision.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student who once hesitated to break down maths problems started speaking her thought process out loud and now uses new problem-solving strategies on her own.

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