English Tutor Lake Haven, NSW
The most important thing you can do for a student (other than teaching them the things they are struggling with) is letting them know they aren't as "stupid" as they may feel. So many students enter tutoring frustrated, upset and not wanting to be there because they believe that they are "stupider" or "dumber" than their friends because "well my…

Support and patience. Trying to force too many things at once can only frustrate somebody attempting to better themselves, following a pace the student is best learning at is crucial. Frustration and not grasping an idea or a concept can lead to giving up, which is why support and again patience are key. I'm reliable, patient and easy to talk to.…

I believe the most important thing is to have a routine, be reliable, and to have the student be a part of every decision in their learning. My time with a student is not about a test or exam. It is about creating the skills for a student to be able to improve as they move through school and beyond. This is something that is going to be…

The most important thing an english tutor could do is create a safe environment for the student. Learning can be more comprehensive and explicit once the student is comfortable around their tutor’s presence. The tutor also must maintain and adhere to an elaborate study plan to help the student. I am very patient and would never snap even on…

I believe that the most important things an english tutor can do for a student are to have an individualised approach and foster a healthy mindset to learning. Understanding each student's unique learning style, strengths, weaknesses, and preferences is essential to maximising their learning potential. Furthermore, encouraging and fostering a…

A tutor must be able to assess the strengths and weaknesses of a student and plan the lesson and the program so the student can meet the learning needs of the student. Knowing the student.

The most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to understand the needs of their student and develop effective resources that work for THAT student. It is also important to recognise what kind of work load people are capable of handling so that you do not overwhelm them with tasks, as this would be counterproductive. So I guess,…

Inside Lake HavenTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Ethan worked on converting fractions to decimals and multiplying fractions, as well as simplifying them through practical examples.

In Year 9, Olivia practiced solving linear equations and was introduced to graph plotting for both linear and nonlinear equations using coordinate grids.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Ryan focused on arithmetic and geometric series alongside reviewing function graph transformations in preparation for his yearly exams.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student working on algebra repeatedly avoided writing full working when expanding brackets; as one tutor noted, "he skipped steps, which hid sign errors."

In Year 10 trigonometry revision, a student hesitated to attempt questions without checking notes for every formula, slowing progress.

Meanwhile, a senior physics student's written work on centripetal force was described as "hard to follow" due to inconsistent formatting and over-erasing corrections.

A primary student revising times tables struggled with confidence after mistakes and began skipping verbal recall practice entirely. The hesitation led to longer problem-solving sessions and persistent uncertainty in later exercises.

Recent Achievements

One Lake Haven tutor noticed a Year 10 student who used to hesitate with multi-step equations now works through them independently, only asking for help when truly stuck.

In a recent session with a senior student, the tutor saw a big change: instead of avoiding worded pay and commission problems, she tackled each one and even checked her answers on the calculator herself.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who struggled to explain how they found perimeters is now confidently describing each step out loud while solving area questions—finishing their last set without needing any prompts.

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 Lake Haven Library & Council Services—or at your child's school (with permission), like Gorokan High School.
