This means not only continuing teaching the student but also means that the tutor should always believe a student can improve with their guidance. In addition, it is essential for a tutor to be able to learn the student's strengths and weaknesses and their way of thinking, so the…

I believe that a tutor must be able to provide the students with what they need. This means assessing the student's abilities and determining key weaknesses. Since not all students are the same, a successful tutor must be able to decide strategies that are suited for each individual student. I am adaptable and resourceful, so I can adjust myself…

Each student is unique and a common mistake for tutors is to keep using the same lessons for all students. The best thing one can do is to cater each lesson to the person. These include where they are in their studies in conjunction with the identity of the student. Mentors should try to incorporate as much of the student's life with the lessons…

Making a student as confident as possible is the upmost important aspect of tutoring in my mind. This is because, no matter how many hours are spent studying, if a student is not confident within themselves, in exam settings they will constantly doubt themselves and make avoidable mistakes. Therefore, building students confidence is the most…

1. Revise fundamental concepts as they are essential to solve more complex problems. 2. Always break down the question before trying to solve problems. This makes the problem become simpler to solve and stimulates recall of the basic concepts that they have learnt before. 3. Always summarise what has been learnt as this helps to consolidate…

Maintaining open communication with the student so gaps in their knowledge can be identified and closed so their understanding of the subject matter is clear. This is because in the HSC multiple syllabus dot points are often combined to form long responses, the lack of understanding in one area can result in the significant loss of marks.…

Zane is finally grasping concepts that he always found confusing in class. Alan has been very patient with Zane, as there is quite a bit of work to do. Zane would not have received this personal time in class, due to time, disruptions etc.. Thank goodness we are starting now before NAPLAN in 2 weeks and highschool in 2019.

Inside South CoogeeTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 4 student Isla worked on fractions and telling time using Mathletics activities, with extra practice on word problems.

Year 10 student Dharsshen tackled a challenging essay question focused on structuring arguments and refining thesis statements, as well as reviewing his completed essay for clarity and coherence.

Meanwhile, Year 12 student Amira prepared for her HSC English exam by revising thesis development and practicing short-answer responses worth 20 marks to strengthen analytical skills.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 English student, under pressure from school commitments, began "rushing his work," which led to persistent errors in grammar and punctuation.

In creative writing for Year 8, a reluctance to add detail meant stories lacked vivid description—one tutor observed missing commas where new sentences should have started, making the writing harder to follow.

A Year 5 student struggled with homework page formatting; unclear layouts made it difficult to identify main points or corrections.

In poetry revision for Year 10, another avoided reviewing unfamiliar texts, risking gaps in exam readiness by focusing only on preferred material.

Recent Achievements

A tutor in South Coogee noticed that a Year 10 student, Dharsshen, who used to struggle with structuring essays, now independently spots argument flaws and recently incorporated teacher feedback for the first time.

In Year 11 English, Mohit moved from vague thesis statements to writing a much stronger argument and even achieved a notable 16/20 on an essay—he previously lost more marks due to unclear structure.

Meanwhile, Miyah (Year 4) shifted from guessing answers in maths to using pen-and-paper strategies and talking through her process out loud until she found the right solution herself.

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 Lionel Bowen Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like South Coogee Public School.
