I always see students as future leaders of our society hence it is very essential to motivate and encourage them to take bold steps in their academic journey and learn through their experience.…

I think that the most important thing an english tutor can do for their student is to understand their lifestyle and work according to that so that there is minimal pressure and more learning for them. In order to do that, it’s better to get to know the child and adjust according to what they prefer and how they want to be treated and/or…

A tutor should be able to help clear each and every notion that the student has about a certain topic. They should not get tired of explaining concepts on repeat. A good tutor should always be consistent and take note of what their student does. They should regularly follow up on lesson plans and make sure that the student is not burdened by any…

The most important thing an english tutor can do is to ensure that the child fully understands the lesson, and finds purpose in it. The student should not only study it because it is a requirement, but because they find it interesting, This I believe is a very crucial task for tutors. If a child is passionate about a subject, they will…

Tutoring with Elsa is going well and we are happy with the progress.
Rebecca

Inside KentlynTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student John worked on calculating area and perimeter for different shapes, including applying these skills to worded problem-solving scenarios and measurement conversions.

For Year 7, Oliver focused on revising algebraic simplifications and expansions by tackling questions from his recent exam and homework.

Meanwhile, Year 8 student Lily reviewed statistics concepts like mean, mode, and median alongside practicing angle questions using targeted worksheets.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student was reminded to attempt all assigned homework, as missing tasks limited exposure to challenging algebra and fractions.

In Year 10, over-reliance on mental maths led to repeated errors—"she needs to show working out during questions," noted one tutor, especially with time and date problems.

For a primary learner, skipping written steps in division caused confusion when tackling three-digit numbers.

Meanwhile, a senior student's marks dropped in algebra due to not distinguishing between 'x Ă— x' and 'x + x,' leading to sign errors that took extra lesson time to untangle.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Kentlyn recently noticed some real progress across different year levels.

In high school, Oliver moved from hesitating over algebra to confidently sorting like terms and solving equation problems—he even saw a marked improvement in his latest exam compared to last year.

Another high school student started flagging tough homework questions instead of skipping them, showing she's now willing to ask for help when stuck.

Meanwhile, a younger student who used to stumble over reading now follows lines without missing words and accurately places fractions on a number line up to one during 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 Campbelltown City Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Kentlyn Public School.
