I believe creating a comfortable environment for the student to thrive in, and being able to adapt to different students learning styles are among the most important things an english tutor can do. Alongside this, a tutor should be able to explain topics in an interesting, yet simple way, whilst simultaneously pushing the students knowledge. I am…

I consider effective communication to be the most important thing an english tutor can have for a student, as this one quality filters into all aspects of the job as a tutor. This allows the tutor to gain an understanding of the specific goals or concerns of the student to then maximise the use of sessions, allowing for substantial growth. I…

The tutor needs to understand the level of understanding of a subject that his student(s) has. He needs to adjust his teaching method accordingly and try to focus on the goal that his student(s) is aiming at. If an english tutor is able to explain the concepts as per the level of his student's understanding then he can build on that and make his…

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.…

It is so important for tutors to adapt their method of teaching to the way the student learns. Every student not only has different needs and difficulties, but learns concepts differently.

I think a tutor should empower students to think for themselves, as this is what is required for the student to succeed independently when taking exams. So the most important thing I could do as a tutor is to encourage students to work out answers rather than giving it to them immediately. I pride myself on being patient. I believe strongly that…

I think that the most important things that a tutor can do for a student would be to inspire them to love the subjects that they take and study, to be able to inspire them to do their work and really work at it in their own time, such that the tutoring isn't a dependency but a supplement to their success. Once that's achieved, it becomes much…

Inside RosevilleTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Olivia worked through Euka Mathematics sheets to catch up on number patterns and problem-solving, focusing on building confidence with multi-step questions.

In Year 10, Marcus focused on factorisation and completing the square in algebra, using practice exercises to reinforce each method.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Emily tackled advanced networks problems, including minimum cuts and maximum flow, as well as HSC-style short answer writing for English textual analysis.

Recent Challenges

In Year 11 maths, a student hesitated to check her own work or talk herself through multi-step problems without tutor prompts—"she relied on me to highlight mistakes," one note explained. This led to missed opportunities for independent error correction during practice.

In Year 9 English, reluctance to move onto less familiar analysis tasks meant responses stayed descriptive rather than analytical, especially when under time pressure in assessments.

For Year 8 algebra, skipping step-by-step written working made it hard to spot where sign errors occurred, resulting in confusion with substitution and bracket multiplication. Confidence visibly dipped after challenging test results.

Recent Achievements

One Roseville tutor noted a big change in Kayla (Year 10): after initially hesitating to tackle unfamiliar math problems, she now volunteers answers and works through challenges even when unsure—last week, she independently broke down a tricky area/volume question without prompting.

In Year 11 biology, Kayla came to her session with a clear plan for reviewing weak spots and asked for extra questions on polypeptide synthesis, showing new initiative compared to earlier sessions where she waited for guidance.

Meanwhile, a younger student recently surprised their tutor by confidently reading advanced texts aloud and explaining the main ideas themselves.

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 Lindfield Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Roseville College.
