The most crucial things an english tutor can do for a student are academic supervision, human connection, and consistency, and the combination of these can possibly redefine a class, subject, or school more generally for a learner. A high level of energy and patience are two of my strongest assets. I strongly rely on these traits when I'm…

Every student is different and every student has different ways of understanding concepts. Some might learn them easily via a practical approach while others focus on the theory first. Understanding the weak points of a student and focusing on the strength of a student is very important for an english tutor to know. One of my strengths is a strong…

The most important things an english tutor can do for a student is be patient and listen to what they aren't understanding. Also to be able to identify that is a student isn't understanding a concept then the tutor needs to be able to recognise this and try to explain it to them in a different way. I think my strengths as a tutor are that I am a…

A tutor should firstly be encouraging; to be more confident in their studies, for them to work hard and try their best, and to inspire a love of learning. Secondly, it is imperative to be understanding. Every student is unique, with varying goals, learning styles, and abilities, so learning should be tailored to each individual to ensure every…

Encouragement is the most important quality an english tutor should have.

A tutor has to want the student to succeed in what they're learning. It's important to know specifically where the student is struggling in order to help them.

A good tutor should give to every student: 1- an understanding of the principles in the material; 2- the tools to tackle the material with confidence - typically inductive or deductive reasoning; and 3- an appreciation for the subject.

Local Reviews

Only 3 sessions in but what a difference my son who was adamant he didn't want to do it now loves it and is so much more confident in class and doing homework. His homework results were always 55 percent and below now 90 and above. One happy parent and 15 year old! He said it's heaps easier one on one and how it's explained. I'm impressed.

Inside NeerabupTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Islay revised simple probability exercises and calculating probability as decimals, and also completed a Year 9 statistics test focusing on mean, mode, median, and range.

For Year 9, Aiden worked through measurement problems involving volume and surface area of cuboids and cubes as well as problem solving with Venn diagrams in probability.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Alex focused on film techniques—exploring SWAT codes such as lighting and camera angles—and analyzed how these technical features create different moods in horror and romantic genres.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student found it difficult to maintain focus during longer revision sessions, especially when covering familiar content; "he wanted to move on before finishing the task," noted a tutor, which left key skills under-practiced.

In Year 11 English, another hesitated to start creative writing tasks without reassurance, struggling with self-confidence and idea planning—this made first drafts slow and fragmented.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student repeatedly left homework incomplete and needed reminders to practice times tables between lessons. These patterns led to missed consolidation opportunities and growing frustration when recalling information in class or assessments.

Recent Achievements

One Neerabup tutor noticed a big shift with a Year 10 student who used to struggle explaining her maths methods; now she confidently talks through each step and identifies her own mistakes without prompting.

Another high school learner, previously hesitant to ask for help, started speaking up when stuck on graphing "rise over run," leading to much faster progress in plotting points correctly.

In a recent primary session, a Year 4 student who'd always guessed at reading tricky words now pauses to sound them out carefully before moving on—something she avoided before—and finished the lesson by reading an entire short passage aloud.

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 Clarkson Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Joseph Banks Secondary College.
