I believe the most important things an english tutor can do for a student is to help them improve their study skills and thus their grades. This can be done through being patient, thorough, and understanding when explaining study material and assisting students. I believe that I am patient when explaining things, and can explain study material in…

Ideally, I want to instill the same sense of wonder and love that I have for mathematics in the students. This won't work for all students, of course, so failing that I think an english tutor should be able to teach a student how to think for themselves - it's one thing to be shown how to get an answer, and it's another thing entirely to be taught…

One of the most important things an english tutor can do for a student would be helping the student gain confidence in the area in which they are struggling. A tutor can do this through adjusting teaching methods for the most benefit of the student, helping them but not doing it for them and also providing encouragement and support. I have a lot…

The best thing an english tutor can do for a student is it reduce the fear of studying/learning a subject.

I think the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is give them confidence. When a student has confidence they are willing to try and take risks and this is when learning can take place. I have a confident but relaxed manner which helps me build a strong rapport with students quickly. During my time at Ashlyns School, I built good…

I believe that teaching students how to become a more independent learner is the most important thing that a tutor can do.

This way, students will be better equipped to handle the rest of their time at school. Helping…

Inside LawntonTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Tasha worked on surface area calculations and reviewed all key exam topics to consolidate understanding.

For Year 10, Cameron focused on calculating gradients and finding x- and y-intercepts in linear equations, including using the gradient-intercept method for graph sketching.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Olivia practised solving trigonometric functions and revisited derivatives as part of her advanced mathematics studies.

Recent Challenges

In Year 10, one student left most worded questions blank during a maths revision session—he only attempted them after the tutor modelled each step, revealing difficulty with independent problem solving under test conditions.

For a Year 6 English task, another student provided minimal responses in comprehension activities, "using the amount of lines as a clue to the depth needed in the answer" rather than fully engaging with the text.

In senior maths, reliance on guessing equations for assignments ("guessing equations to see if it works in her favour") slowed progress and left key methods unmastered before assessment deadlines.

Recent Achievements

A Lawnton tutor recently noticed Kiana arriving with a list of tricky maths questions she'd struggled with in class; after working through each one together, she could explain the solutions herself and even finished early.

In another session, Clancey started off unsure about rearranging equations but by the end was confidently solving them without help—something he couldn't do before.

With a younger student, Tamia has begun to spot her own grammar mistakes while reading aloud and now corrects them independently, rather than waiting for 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 Strathpine Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Lawnton State School.
