I find that offering consistent and reliable support is the most crucial thing a tutor can do, particularly to senior students. Knowing that learning and studying is a difficult and complex process, a tutor must be a mentor students can look to for guidance so that their goals are aligned. My strengths include my adaptability and patience where I…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is elevate their understanding of a topic and inspire further learning. Rather than write their homework or assessments, tutors must guide their students to be the best they can be and produce the best work possible.

I believe the most important thing a tutor can be for a student is understanding. As someone who struggled with concepts growing up, it is of utmost importance to identify which points a student is not understanding and how to address them in a way that will help the student to grasp the concept. To provide a superficial explanation to a…

A good tutor seeks to create a student that no longer requires assistance and so they instil those executive study skills that will serve the student well in academics and in life. Skills like organization, task initiation, focus and time management are essential to being a great learner. Tutors should work at these skills as much as at the…

Local Reviews

I have used your services in the past as well and have witnessed both my daughters excel in the mathematical knowledge and skills. The attitude and enthusiasm of the tutors has been great. They are amicable and know the content taught. They have been very flexible with tutoring hours and are prompt with timing. My daughters feel comfortable and confident in their learning and are willing to take risks and challenges which was not evident prior to them commencing tutoring. Well Done!!!!!!!!!!

Inside LurneaTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 8 student Nayeshehour focused on maths homework, showing solid understanding in decimals and using number lines to solve place value questions.

Year 9 student Mahmoud tackled NAPLAN revision with extra attention on algebra-based problems and clarifying homework queries as they arose.

For a Year 6 learner, multiplication and division strategies were reinforced, including working through worded questions using new step-by-step methods.

Recent Challenges

In Year 7 mathematics, one student left most homework questions incomplete and struggled to apply feedback from previous lessons—particularly in long division and algebra. As noted, "majority of the questions were left unanswered," making it hard to pinpoint where support is needed.

In a senior English session, another student forgot key materials for their assignment draft, which delayed progress on extended responses.

Messy written work in Year 8 graphing tasks also made errors harder to spot and correct during review.

After losing class notes on angles, confusion during test revision became clear: concepts could not be recalled under pressure.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Lurnea recently saw Mahmoud, a Year 8 student, quickly adapt to new division strategies—he had struggled with algorithm steps before but now completes problems with less confusion and more independence.

In Year 10 English, Sara previously hesitated when tackling short answer questions but is now approaching them more confidently after learning how to apply paragraph structures; she's begun planning her answers without prompting.

Meanwhile, Ariana in Year 6 surprised her tutor by voluntarily doing extra homework for tutoring for the first time, showing real initiative as she mastered simplifying fractions and long division.

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 Miller Branch Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Francis Xavier's Catholic Primary School.
