The most important things an english tutor can do for a student is be consistent, positive and a guidance for the student throughout their studies. It is through these attributes that a student can truly benefit from the teachings and have a willingness to learn and understand the concepts taught by the tutor.

Prior to anything an english tutor must undertand the student's goals and objectives. It is only after this that the tutor should then understand what kind of person the student is, motivational factors behind the interest in learning, and how to communicate more effectively when transfering knowledge. The student's personality is also a key…

The most important thing that an english tutor can do for a student is to create an environment which will enable them to feel comfortable while studying and be a good listener and teach a student how to learn. I can help my students engage in the study. I can help them analyse their weakness and find ways to improve them. I am always helping them…

One of the most important skills I believe an english tutor can develop is the art of explaining material in different ways. Often, when students struggle to understand some concept, explaining the material in the same way repeatedly does not help. The key then is to try approaching the material in different ways until the student can grasp it.…

I think the most important thing an english tutor can do for a student is to support them without judgement.

As a tutor I think my greatest strengths are bringing in a passion and enjoyment for the subjects I…

Having both been the tutee and the tutor, I believe that it is imperative that an english tutor is supportive of the student and caters their teaching to the student's specific needs.

I find my biggest strength to be that I get along well with younger kids and other people in general. I am very patient,…

As an english tutor, it is important that you pass on the right knowledge to the student. Make them think about things by themselves instead of giving them straight away. A tutor, shouldn't discourage students if they ask a dumb question, they should resolve all their queries with a good understanding. A tutor's job is to support a student and be…

The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is being prepared.

Additionally, the tutor needs to maintain…

Wanted to say how pleased we are with Gracie.
Verlie, Collaroy

Inside NarrabeenTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Sienna worked through times tables, addition and subtraction, plus tackled word problems to strengthen number sense.

In Year 9, Josh focused on graphing linear equations and solving systems of two equations.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Emily reviewed surds and practiced factorising and expanding quadratic expressions, using step-by-step examples for clarity.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student working on rationalisation in algebra often rushed, skipping steps and losing track of logical progression—"it is important his setting out is logical and able to be followed as he progresses," noted the tutor.

In Year 11, time management issues during past test reviews meant planning was inconsistent, with key questions left unfinished under pressure.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 student sometimes avoided drawing large diagrams or writing clearly in geometry, leading to confusion when revisiting their work.

A Year 3 learner struggled to recall times tables without written support, which slowed problem-solving during complex addition tasks.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in Narrabeen recently saw a Year 10 student, who previously hesitated to check her own work, begin identifying her mistakes during topic tests and explaining how she'd approach those questions differently next time.

In a high school session, another student who often relied on prompts started attempting practice questions independently for an upcoming assessment without waiting for hints, showing new initiative.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 learner who struggled with times tables earlier now writes all of them out independently on paper and solves multi-step subtraction equations with far less support than before.

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 Dee Why Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Rose Catholic Primary School.
