I believe two of the most important things an english tutor can do for a student are help them gain some new insight and understanding into a subject, as well as try to inspire a genuine passion for the topic. As a tutor, I believe my one of my strengnths would definitely be my intense love of English. I'm also extremely time efficeint and…

The most important thing an english tutor can do is to inspire confidence and foster a sense of curiosity and self-motivation in their students. Encouraging a love for learning and empowering them to tackle challenges independently is invaluable. I'd say my ability to explain complex ideas in a clear and understandable way is one of my strengths.…

I believe that an english tutor should instil a positive mindset to learning in each student, by encouraging them to challenge themselves, be persistent, and know that making mistakes is a part of learning. I also feel that a tutor should teach their students practical strategies and skills that students can learn to use independently. This way,…

For me, it's super important for an english tutor to keep the lesson interactive and somewhat interesting, as interest fuels motivation. However, it's important not to forget that repetition is key in learning and retaining information. Certain math concepts need to be repeated to engrain into memory. Essays and writing styles have to be written…

The actual academics itself, while being at the core of the tutoring, is not the most valuable aspect. From my experience, most students do not have the care or respect for their instructors, and mutual respect in particular is essential, because mutual trust is otherwise close to impossible for many people. You must find a balance between being…

The most important thing would be to keep the student engaged - the mere delivery of information means nothing if the student is not interested, or given a chance to apply it. Providing activities is paramount in this case, as it allows students to apply concepts at a pace they are comfortable with and become familiar with them through 'learning…

Armaan is a fantastic tutor and my son saw results after just one session. He takes the time to ensure his student fully understands what he is saying and is always prepared well in advance of his sessions with a comprehensive workplan. Armaan is patient, a great communicator, punctual and very respectful. Highly recommend.

Inside Logan VillageTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Sarah focused on mastering Pythagoras' Theorem and solving trigonometry worded problems, especially those involving missing sides and angles using inverse functions.

In Year 11, Jack worked through calculus fundamentals by practicing derivatives from first principles and tackling factorising with long division, then explored the unit circle for trigonometry.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Olivia reviewed how to graph trigonometric functions and examined rates of change in various mathematical contexts.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11, a student hesitated to get started on simple familiar questions without hints—"He struggled to get started on simple familiar questions until I gave him hints"—which slowed independent problem-solving and left him underprepared for exam conditions.

Another Year 10 learner relied heavily on tutor guidance during practice tests and found it difficult to select strategies for worded problems, resulting in incomplete timed assessments.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student consistently avoided completing assigned homework and times table drills; this led to repeated gaps in foundational skills that surfaced when tackling new topics like fractions or division.

Recent Achievements

One Logan Village tutoring session saw a Year 10 student, who used to hesitate with test conditions, take more initiative and accurately answer Pythagoras and trigonometry problems after struggling in earlier lessons.

In a senior class, a tutor noted that a student now asks for clarification when unsure instead of guessing—this shift has led him to simplify trig expressions correctly and tackle unfamiliar questions with growing independence.

For a younger learner, mastering fractions was tough at first, but last week she finished her homework on her own after understanding each step without prompting.

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 Logan Village Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Logan Village State School.
